@LucaLoguercio@mstdn.social I made no assertions about what people on Fire Island say. I merely pointed out that it was a misuse of the word, strictly speaking. Also, Marco contended that most Long Island residents had never even *heard* of Fire Island, which I hope you will agree is absurd.

@siracusa@mastodon.social @LucaLoguercio@mstdn.social I think people from anywhere are familiar with Fire Island from being mentioned on tv in, shall we say, a different context. I didn't know people actually lived there.
