Nope, here we do pancake Tuesday, only day of the year I really eat pancakes.Does anyone outside Eastern Pennsylvania know what a Fastnacht is? It's sort of like a donut - with no hole or filling and not sweet. Originally made to use the lard or such up before Lent, but eaten now by people who don't do Lent - including Atheists and other religions (store ones often use vegetable oil rather than lard.)
No, the fuckers have been quite silent today, now it all makes sense.Hey guys! Did you get any red envelopes from Chinese neighbors, friends, partners, or colleagues?
So what you're saying is...... hypothetically if I go around picking red envelopes up off the ground I can build myself a ghost harem for the afterlife?Don’t be ridiculous, silly goose. The color red symbolizes good luck, happiness, and protection. It’s meant to ward off evil spirits and bring prosperity to the recipient.
Be cautious though, some Chinese people practice what’s called ghost marriage. In certain rituals, red envelopes are offered publicly to symbolically marry off a deceased child, honoring their spirit because they fear the child will die lonely.

So if you see a red envelope on the street, don’t pick it up. The parents might be in hiding, waiting to ambush you, and taking it could be seen as consenting to a ghost marriage, which, in practice, is unconsensual. But, you know… some older Chinese folks can be pushy.
