Binge watching. “The practice of watching multiple episodes of a television program in rapid succession, typically by means of DVDs or digital streaming.” In other words, wasting time sitting on a couch or in bed watching hours and hours of a show you have never seen before. I have been sitting in my bed watching hours and hours of Gilmore Girls with my mother. It has come to a point where we have started talking like Lorelia and Rory. Putting on Netflix is one of the first things I do in the morning. Even before showering.
