PSA Do not tell folks about the smut on their foreheads today - it's Ash Wednesday - it's deliberate.

(They'll look at you funny. Like you should have known.). It's very Catholic - trust me on this.

Went to Target over lunch and saw someone with ashes on their face. Took me a few ticks to remember it was Ash Wednesday.

Oh they had local Priests at the Train Station doing "Drive By" ashes for folks.

My goodness - gone are the days of being forced to sit through a full mass for that privilege!
"I survived Ash Wed. Mass 2019!". Nope "I had a drive by Ashing at the train depot.".

That is some downright strangeness right there?

They are expressing their acknowledgment that they are merely mortal sinners in need of redemption, which will be celebrated at Easter.

I attended a catholic college and always had the urge to tell them they had a little something on their face.
