isn't 'past' as a participle a slightly archaic usage?
Not saying it's incorrect like.

passé, as it were
PUN DOWN

But I believe it was the use of the verb "to pass" that was being used, here. Rather than the noun "the past", referencing a time period.

If you were saying "that is past", meaning it's out of date, I'd punch you for being a twat.
