mirathon 

A hybrid word derived from Latin 'miror, mirari, miratus sum' - 'to be amazed (at)' - and Greek 'Marathon' - borrowing of course the modern sporting adaptation of the Greek city name - used to denote a lengthy period of viewing pleasure.
I can't decide which makes for the better mirathon, "Lord of the Rings" or "Arrested Development."

Evangelicals on Wescoe Beach? Bet. Sure to be a mirathon.

Masturbation Marathon 

An exceptionally long episode of masturbation fits. These episodes are usually brought on by sexual deprivation and bordom; however, and I'm not making this up, they have been used a means of fundraising for sexual related causes such as safe sex. A masturbation marathon is a strenuous event that requires disciplined training and preparation. There are several related subcatagories such as time, ejaculation distance, and most orgasms for both male and female competitors (I'm totally serious - google it).
Hillary's return brought an end to Bill's 72 hour masturbation marathon.

NCIS Marathon

Something of a daily occurance, NCIS is a great show and it seams its so great that they have "Marathon's" almost everyday. Do not get sucked in as these last for 12-24 hours and you will get nothing done.

In short don't get sucked in.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
