Memento homo, quia pulvis es, et in pulverem reverteris.

New Atheism aside, today is still my favorite holiday.

Happy Ash Wednesday everyb... that's not right.

Doomy Ash Wednesday?

Contemplative Ash Wednesday?

Better suggestions for holiday modifiers in the comments...

  2. Ash Wednesday is a holiday devoted to contemplation of one's own mortality. No sugar coating it: you are ash. You weren't living for most of eternity, and that's what you have to look forward to.

    It's much better than the Rocky 2 of holidays 40 days later.
