From Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday there are quite a few amusing characters to watch out for:
1. The person that gives up beer and switches to hard liquor.
2. The person who is a virgin that decides to give up sex.
3. The person that gives up Facebook and starts Tweeting aggressively.
4. The person that lives in Kampala and gives up McDonalds.
5. The person that gives up all the New Year’s resolutions they made 3 months ago.
Those are our top 5, what other curious cases of Lent have you encountered?
