For Lent, I'm giving up going on forums. Although some of you, cough cough spoony cough, may not agree with me, they are my ideas and I will see you all sometime in April.
The manliest post on the internet

Because of all the Christians giving up stuff, the economy will implode.
Therefore, for Lent, I'm gonna consume, and buy as much shit as possible.

Lent confuses me. Why would you use religion (of all dumbass things) as an excuse to give up something you enjoy? Also, why is it still ok on Sundays?

I don't follow lent at all, it's just like "Oh, I'll give up something that's not really important to me." To be honest, I think that's rather pathetic, no offense to anyone.
My friend, Dima, is Russian Orthodox, and you know what he HAS to give up for Lent? He doesn't get to choose what he gives up at all.
He gives up:
- TV (but for Documentaries)
- Dairy and meat (essentially turns vegan)
- Computer Games of all sorts
- and finally, music (but for Russian Church Choir)
And he has to do this for periods of 3 weeks to sometimes 3 months, and he usually has to do it multiple times a year, which leaves it at 1/3 to half the year being on Lent.
Nowadays I don't even find the Lent that most people follow even remotely religious. So I don't do it at all.
Heresy grows from idleness!
