A miser is someone who is infatuated with the past, and is grumpy about the present, (compared to depressive, or someone who is infatuated with the future, and depressed about the present), so when did it come to mean someone who is a cheapskate and stingy over money?
what’s your question?
where did you get the definition of “miser” from? because its wrong.
“Miser is a grumpy person who lives in the past, instead of the present”, was the definition people used in the US before 2016.
I literally cited a dictionary. Ill assume youre being obtuse on purpose at this point, engaging in bad faith.
cite a dictionary from before 2016, instead, that’s not online
ok good bye.
the definition for miser somehow, and some when, changed from “grumpy person who lives in the past”, to “someone stingy over money and is cheapskate”.
Yes. But where did you see this? what gave you that definition?
Some vague memory is not valid.
youve had your question answered. why are you arguing?
The basis of your premise is factually wrong.
just because ‘the definition for miser somehow, and some when, changed from “grumpy person who lives in the past”, to “someone stingy over money and is cheapskate”’ is not mentioned elsewhere, does not make it false.
