Wait, Ramadan is a whole month?

...

Yeah, I won't join for funsies.

29 or 30 days. Lunar cycle. Fast from sun up to sundown.

While we're on this topic, though, Ramadan is projected to start on the 26th of May. When we get to that point, I just want to ask everyone from now to be respectful of that. Be strong with the spoiler tags, it's a pure time. ;-;

I'll only post food pictures three times a day.

We're immune, you can post them 24/7 and we'll be unaffected. My concern is more with stuff that ain't exactly PG-13. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Y'all feast like kings afterward though.

After 17.5 hour long fasts in Toronto, damn right we do. Hell, last summer I was in Kenya so it was only 13 hours - still feasted.

I can't make any promises

I won't post any horse gifs for the month if you promise.

I'll probably join for the first three days, because fasting is a humbling experience regardless.

Then it's whoever is the first result on Just-Eat

wait, is Ramadan shit other than fasting?

Fasting is mainly it, but it's just a more religious time in general. That is, people check their language and actions a lot more than they tend to on the every day. The month is all about self control, and abstention from desires.

Doesn't mean you can't have sex, if you're concerned. Gotta be after sundown, though. Forbidden again come dawn. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Self-control for me is not ordering take-away and cooking, so perhaps from day 3 onwards I can join in my own way.

Lemme appropriate and bastardise this holy holiday just so I can feel part of something
I'm being self-aware/honest

It's easier than you think, really, going without food or drink for those hours. The first day is tough. Beyond then? Eh.

I've only fasted once when I wanted to be Buddhist all of a sudden in my teens haha. I lasted 3 days until my big brother was like "btw, there's like 2 whole boxes of pizza in the fridge cause I ordered too much"

Yeah, once you get over the initial hump your body goes into a fasting mode etc. (like it does every night actually). I read a lot on fasting, even watched a dude on YouTube do a 40-day water fast.

Forgive me if I'm tone deaf, but as someone who's not religious, I get the feeling that this is a humbling and healthy "activity", which is why I'm considering it.

It's after exams and before my holiday in Japan, sounds great.

Exchanged horse pic posting ability for clapbacks

As long as you are active in doing good it's all good
Being aware and attempting when not required is already fantastic!

Fasting isn't really necessary in the beginning for Buddhism unless your moral compass caused for it outright...
