I still hate my co-worker who I had to go on a business trip with that acted the dick the whole time and felt like he got to pick dinner every night just because the rest of us got to eat lunch during his fancy moon god month and he had been up since sunrise and fasting.

rear end in a top hat wouldn't even drink with us in the evenings :grin:

The ramada inn perhaps? Its not bad I agree. I even got to eat sausage on the breakfast buffet during ramadan while my idiot co-worker fasted and got super grumpy.

I'm surprised the middle east made it this long if they have to fast during the day for an entire month i figure they would all just grow extra extra angry (even more than usual) and kill each other oh wait

blessings be on all goons, I'd say try to drink a little less in solidarity with our brothers of Islam but I would be a gigantic hypocrite because I'm drunk all day erry day and don't plan on stopping just because Allah

I don't think goons could possibly survive if told they couldn't eat when the sun is out

Then again I don't think they ever see the sun so maybe it doesn't matter, can any forums imams clear this up for us?

Yeah it's one of the 5 pillars and pretty much every sect observes it (even though the actual term 5 pillars isn't even used by everyone they all pretty much agree on at least those things)

Ramadan is when muslims dont have fun (eat/drink/smoke/gently caress) between sun up and sun down for an entire month, for some reason. I think you get out of it if you're on your period or pregnant so basically its the only time of the year that muslim women get the best deal out of their religion.

Not eating is easy but not drinking is brutal and probably hellish in those desert/jungle countries most muslims live in

You have to make up for missing fast actually... so even pregnant women who can't fast have to pay it back to the moon God.

I'm actually gonna try and fast to see how hard it is. Wish me luck!

I ate Nandos and drank half a pitcher of their ok sangria tonight as my last meal before taking the plunge.

My prognosis is that the hardest thing is actually gonna be waking up at 4 am to eat before dawn.

I'm still doing it easy mode because I'm not praying 5 times a day. Privilege checked.

I kind of get all of those except the fasting, they sort of apply to most religions (swap out mecca for some other holy land/place/thing)

Yeah it's a total fast minus the pregnant and disabled etc but maybe I'm wrong. No food or fluids from sunrise to sunset a and be a dick about dinner because you are hangry you know?
