I'm not a bloody papist.

The Church of England are bloody paptists now?  I am not sure I can reconcile this attitude with a loyal servant of the Crown.

You people will submit to the will of your one true religion & bow before Pope Francois.

I would give up drinking and debauchery . But Lent always coincides with my winter trip to Cuba.

It's not really a religious thing here.

I'm giving up sugar and sugary things.

I was a TA in a Modern Film History course at Columbia. I was slightly shocked when after Ash Wednesday all the Catholic students didn't have their due assignment finished, and they told me it was because of that. Of course, I had to give them extra days on religious belief grounds...

Some years ago For Lent, I gave up giving up things for Lent; seems to have worked out well and I'm guilt free.  :)

The Chinese musical Lent isn't so bad, though.
