the BEST HOLIDAY EVER....

...is in a week from today!
PURIM!
its like Halloween, just no trick-or treating. everyone gives each other gifts of food and candy, we all dress up and such.
but the best part is.....
the rabbis said that its a Mitzvah (good deed in judaism) to get completely wasted!!!!!
in fact, they say that you are supposed to get so drunk, you arent supposed to know the diff between "curse Haman" and "bless Mordechai!"
i cant wait!!!!!!!

:medievalcheers:

Every day is a good day to get wasted. Put that quote in your sig.

Hmmm... I think I just celebrated a holiday like that.

I don't think I celebrate Purim. Not sure...

And I don't like Jewish holidays in general. IMO, they're only good for getting days off from school.
Especially Passover: I can't eat any bread, and those egg-based cereal substitutes taste ATROCIOUS. :wall:
