Deathmarch

When you walk for multiple miles for any reason e.g to go between parent's houses if one sucks. Usually when hiking but sometimes you have a reason and have to do it, even worse when you didn't bring anything or aren't even supposed to do it.
Person 1: Where were you
Person 2: on a Deathmarch from here to Herndon
Person 1: Why?
Person 2: I hate it at my dad's place so I went to my Mom's, I ended up spending like 3 hours walking when it should have been 1 and a half.
Person 1: Damn.

Craft Corner Deathmatch

The best show style network ever had, but what did they do? cancelled after one (maybe not even a whole) season. It was a brilliant combination of original crafting with a badass set and hilarious host, Jason Jones (my pants!) Regular crafters fashioned lingerie out of whitey tighties, wedding cakes out of little debbie snacks, and designer jeans out of Jones' pants. Amber, the show's assistant, who brought out the piles of crafting options, is creepy, unemotional, and wonderfully inspiring, with a really great taste in eyeshadow. Whomever prevailed in the crafting duels at the end of the day faced off with the Craft Lady of Steel, a RISD graduate (who nearly always beat the regular old crafties.) All this and a prestigious panel of judges including knitting geniuses and fashion website owners made this show spectacular, a true winner.
It's a shame style network dropped Craft Corner Deathmatch, easily their best show ever, but they can keep that wretched Niecy Nash on the air.

Las Vegas death march

Any exhaustingly and/or exasperatingly long walk through Las Vegas, usually resulting from a gross misjudgment of the distance between points due to the flat landscape and oversized buildings.
Dad led us on another Las Vegas death march today - "Oh, come on, we're not wasting good money on a taxi! Rio is right over there!" You'd think he'd learned his lesson after the Circus Circus fiasco!

Trumpian Death March

A potential but fantastical march of all those taken prisoner in the Trump administration (those who’ve gone to prison) where the marchers would be left to die along the way, that is if our society were not “woke” and we still did this kind of sadistic thing.
Some have fantasies of a Trumpian Death March but fortunately the mass of greedy prisoners will only be deprived of their freedoms and their multi-millions while they are briefly held for their crimes.

death march

In the software development industry, a death march is a dysphemism or description for the end phase of a project when a hard deadline has to be met, often to meet an arbitrary ship date leaked to the press and/or the shareholders. Often if a project is off schedule due to mismanagement (as many are), said management will ask team members to work especially grueling hours, weekends (sometimes with a straight face), or by attempting to "throw (enough) bodies at the problem" with varying results, often causing burnout. It is also common for a developer to subsist on flat food while in the midst of a death march.
Bill Gates: The world wants and our shareholders need Vista by Christmas!
Steve Ballmer: We have had our developers on a perma death march for the last three years to ship it and need a few more monthes.
Bill Gates: Just drop development of all the useful features and leave the annoying ones!

A hillarious show that used to run on MTV. The show was animated with clay and pitted 2 celebrities that had something in common (ie Nsync and the Backstreet Boys) against each other in a fight to the death.
