Seriously, does one say "happy Ash Wednesday"? I mean, it's not really a celebration, is it? I cringe when some well meaning but ignorant person wishes me a "happy" Yom Kippur.

If people can stop joking about fucking HCP's wife and answer, I'd appreciate it - I am curious about that.

I would suspect that the OP was saying it tongue-in-cheek. I'm not a super-devout Catholic, in that I don't attend mass every week, but I am Catholic and I follow the religion. I cringed at the post (until it turned into a discussion of Mrs. HCP), as I really try to avoid religious jokes (Yes, I am scared enough to believe that God may strike me down if I make a joke out of religion).

Now, back to Mrs. HCP.

No, people don't say Happy Ash Wednesday.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

what is Ash Wednesday?

 

[Eastoff]

what is Ash Wednesday?

The first day of lent, or the day after fat tuesday.

 

[tlongII]

But what is the significance of the ash?

 

[3RA1N1AC]

But what is the significance of the ash?

god smites all non believers with eternal hell fire where you scream and burn and melt and have your eyes gouged out for a million eternities until you turn to ash, and then you are are reconstituted into penis meat that you yourself are forced to gorge upon until your innards burst, spewing bile and decomposed cock flesh onto the bone riddled floor of the inferno until the sun turns black for the 666th time

but he loves you

and he needs money

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

But what is the significance of the ash?

Its to remind you that your time on earth is limited. its a time of reflection that you are not immortal. when they put the ash on you they say "remember you are dust and to dust you shall return".
