No Offense (No Tea, No Shade)

Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to forgive someone who has hurt your feelings, and apologizes right before Yom Kippur, especially if it's a repeat offense. If the apology is in cyberspace, feel free to ignore.

Eat your heart out
Don't fast? Don't eat around people who do, unless you're in a predetermined event as a decadent hang, and then it's the faster's problem who decided to come anyway.
 

Let the lord be with you

You've decided to go to synagogue, but you have no idea what page the prayer is on in your bible? It is likely that the person at your side will guide you. Got lost again, daydreaming about peanut butter? Just go with the flow and lip sync. God will appreciate that you even showed up at all.

The Holiday of bicycles

At any age you can enjoy Yom Kippur customs and ride with pleasure on the Ayalon Highway in Tel Aviv. Yes, even on electric bicycles. 

Pretty in White 

You dressed up in white and went out to walk around the streets? It's a given and people will assume you're fasting.
