Back in the day you had dinner in the afternoon, and supper in the evening.
Now you have dinner in the evening, and who even invited this lunch guy?
When did this change happen? Is there a reason for it?

This has been all over the place since the beginning of time. When I grew up we ate breakfast lunch and supper. Every once in awhile supper was interchanged with dinner. Then dinner became the word that you used on a Saturday or Sunday at noon when you had a big family gathering. Now that I’m 58 I go by breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I rarely say supper even though that’s how I was raised.
In the south, or when I lived there a long time ago when I was young, dinner was always the noon meal. It took me years to get used to that.
