Pagan Standard Time

By , About.com Guide

Definition:

Pagan Standard Time, or PST, is the practice often found in Pagan communities of people showing up anywhere from 20 - 45 minutes late for everything. Considered rude by anyone who's trying to organize event or host a ritual. While people joke about PST, those who continually show up late may find themselves no longer invited to attend events, workshops or celebrations.

Also Known As: PST
Examples:

When asked why he arrived at five for a four o'clock ritual, Oak said, "I was just following Pagan Standard Time."
