      A holiday celebrated by Jew's. It is basically Halloween and st. patty's day mixed together.

      The kids get dressed up in costumes and go around the neighborhood giving and getting candy from friends and family, while the adults get completely wasted.

      but its really all about getting wasted

            A massive Jewish [full send] which takes place some time every March. [Purim] in cities with high Jewish populations generally looks like large groups of sauced Jewish teenagers going around the city in limos dressed in [onesies]. Later in the day, many sends and parties take place. Contrary to popular belief, the most hype ones are usually the religious ones, particularly those at yeshivas, but even so, it is hard to find any [purim] party which isnt an absolute banger.
