Man Binge-Watches Entire Movie In One Sitting

Published: July 10, 2026

COLUMBUS, OH--Expressing embarrassment at the sheer amount of time that had passed, local man Evan Pfister reportedly binge-watched an entire movie in one sitting on Friday. "Wow, I must have been staring at this screen for hours. Well, almost hours. An hour and forty nine minutes, to be precise," said Pfister, who told reporters that he knew it probably "wasn't healthy," but the film just kept autoplaying one scene after another. "I usually like to watch my movies one Instagram Reels clip at a time, but what can I say? I guess I was just sucked in wanting to know what would happen to Selena Gomez and her friends in Monte Carlo." At press time, Pfister was wondering out loud if perhaps his behavior was a symptom of depression.

It was big and heavy. Almost a pound. If it was lighter, I might'a been able to read 18 or even 20 pages of it. It was somthin' about some city but the guy was confused about the time he was living it. Something about it being good times and wurst of times and he didn't even know what city he was living in.

Maybe it was taken from some old Star Trek episode with McCoy and Spock trying to fuck up Kirk's head.

I will try to read two or three more pages on it tomorrow and let yiz know how it goes.

5. Be careful with those heavy books. There are reports of suffocation and face crushing if you fall asleep.

Comics are safer!

(I heard Playboy could be dangerous also.)

Now erronis, if you're a girl, please don't read no more of this cause it's embarrassing.

But erronis did ya ever hold a Playboy - one with Ellen Page in one hand and miss a stroke and smack yourself in the eye?
