Can we make Purim more cool?

Whenever a Jewish holiday comes around, we either make fun of it, or explain how to make it more fun. But with Purim, I am not sure what to say.

As children, we loved to dress up and join in some shitty Purim parade involving dying clowns and cross dressing rabbis. Purim was our Christmas and Halloween. Tons of candy baskets, and getting to dress up as 90′s cartoon characters.

As we enter our teens, our decision making gets worse. We dress up as whores. But at least we completed the mitzvah of getting wicked shit faced and forgetting who Haman is.

As we get older, the parties become more fancy, and kinda boring. Megillah reading is annoying (I think I texted my entire address book last year and the year before). And to be fair, hamantaschen are not close to the jelly donuts and latkes of Hanukkah. Anyone want prune filled? no?

So what can we do to make Purim more fun? How can we take over this holiday? More weed? Sending your friends mix 6 packs of microbrews? Making a shitty song to go viral? This holiday needs a new makeover.
