It’s that special time of year, people. Time to spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about which of your many addictions you can gain some control over. That’s right, the most hopeful religious season of them all: Lent.

Every Irish man and woman knows that just as you can give up drink or chocolate for Lent you can legitimately give up Lent on numerous other occasions.The law of the shamrock states that thou must abandon all Lent-based food and alcohol restrictions on this day.
