Down With Staycations

I don’t just hate staycations, I hate the word “staycation.” It’s an annoying neologism that has had way too much airtime to be even remotely bearable.

I also hate all the variations, from daycations (one-day trips) to paycations (vacations by laid-off workers with large settlements). And let me add pre-emptively that if anyone starts using the terms, I will hate flaycations (for masochists), slaycations (for sadists), traycations (for people who eat in cafeterias) and spaycations (for people getting sterilizations surgery.) I will hate them all.

But vacations — I still like those.
