Ride The Pine is an internet slang term that refers to a person being benched or not given the opportunity to participate or take part in a certain activity or event. It originally comes from the concept of sitting on the bench in sports games, where players who are not playing are usually seated.
Examples:
1. John always asks to play during our online gaming sessions, but since he always lags behind and ends up causing problems, we make him ride the pine.
2. Sarah was excited to join the school’s talent show, but when she stumbled over her lines during rehearsals, the drama club director decided to make her ride the pine and not perform.
