Being romantically involved with more than one person at one time and all involved parties are aware and accepting of it.

When your doing quick fire questions in a quick, a pass spiral is when you get flustered from the pressure and keep saying "pass" on a question which makes you feel less confident so you keep doing it more than you actually try and guess at the questions.
Quizzing is more than just knowing facts. There is also various things to consider about strategy and avoiding unfortunate outcomes like pass spirals.

There is a lot of confusion around this word so let's break it down.
1) A lot of sources well tell you a Latino is someone who is a native speaker of a Romance language. But no ones uses this word this way. You'll just look foolish doing it. You would be better off saying "Romance peoples" or "Romance speakers".
2) More narrowly it can mean anyone from Latin America, hence White and Black "Latinos". But you would better off just called them "Latin Americans".
3) The most common sense however is a racial group, or set of related ethno-racial groups found throughout Latin America which (and I was surprised to find this out) are all mixed race between white and Amerindians. The less ambiguous name for them is "Mestizo". Really, they're the same.
