New Years Marathons

So for those of us who don't go "Out" for holidays and prefer sitting on our asses, the extended TV theme Marathon is something of a tradition. Besides obvious choices like watching all the Star Wars movies, what sorts of marathon tv endurance tests are people planning? Buffy, Angel, Twin Peaks, Iron Chef? What are you gonna do?

Baywatch!

[silvaran]

Baywatch is all day on TNN January 1st.

TV Marathons

I just hope to GOD that there isn't a Trading Spaces marathon, or I may have to get a divorce.

Gaming

[jayhawk88]

Let's just say some vodka, orange juice, Team Fortress Classic, and rcon rights on some of my favorite servers may make for some interesting gameplay come 11:30 or so...

Oh, and just to save the trolls some time:

- Yes, I am aware that makes me the biggest loser of all time.
- No, I don't really care, either.

Trek, Baybee.

If there's any justice, I'll be sitting on my fat ass watching Capt. Kirk shirt-rip his way to glory.

This could make a good /. poll.

Unemployment

[mlknowle]

...means that every day is sci-fi marathon day!

DRINKING MARATHON

[rlowe69]

I may not be going "out", but I'm still going to drink for 6 or 7 hours and get completely trashed with my friends. Now this may seem immature and silly, but it's sometimes good to get that out of your system once in a while and what better night than New Years Eve!

Seriously though, some of us are just coming of horrendous exam schedules and need a good winding down before the next semester starts.

... and yes, I DO need alcohol for this. That's what it's in existence for. Well, winding down and getting nerds laid. LOL. Ok, some nerds. On occasion. Ok, rare occasion. Who? Oh, you know, my friend Joey ... Joe Joe .... yeah, Joey Joe Joe. He lives in Niagra Falls. ;)

HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY DRUNKEN NEW YEARS EVE!

Thanks for the idea

A porn marathon! I never thought I could justify it. Yeah, mod me down, but you're glad you saw the idea posted.

XBox Marathon...

[tsmit]

I believe i'll be going to the SuperBowl with the Patriots in NFL Fever 2002. Apparently the XBox can do something Robert Craft hasn't been able to do in over a decade.

what we do in .de

[psych031337]

Weed and shrooms, Futurama 1st and 2nd season in a row, some firecrackers at midnight and extreme hardcore powerchilling (tm) .

Happy new year! (Who makes the FP in 2002?)

Praise the Lord!

[Uttles]

Running...
Bikinis...
Running...


This is the work of pure genius.

I'll be using one of my Christmas presents...

[eaddict]

I was given the complete Monty Python series collection on DVD. What food would y'all recommend for the session? Coconuts?

"Doesnt matter what part of the world you're in"

Unless it's a cloudy part of the world !

Re:I'll be using one of my Christmas presents...

[ShavenYak]

Coconuts are best for watching The Holy Grail. For the Flying Circus series, I'd suggest Spam, Spam, Spam and eggs.

Re:Anime Fansubs...

[Hulver]

Whoops, I thought you said

I've got a little over 400 hours of snuff I've downloaded off of usenet

Re:Go See Jupiter!!

[markana]

I saw it last night, but it was just a rerun of last year's Jupiter. Let me know when they get some new planets up there...

Drink? No, no, no.

[Anonymous Coward]

Drinking?
no, no, no.

Tonight is the time for the dank load to burn a jade light all night, evaporating the impure thoughts like a green wave of universal mojo.

We will partake, my friends, on the alter of herbage.

Heaven sent, evermore.

We will look upon the Northern Lights with awe and premonition. We will smack 'em like they want it. The girls get down, the boys burn fast, and America, sweet America, drips with the highest nectar of the highest gods, there, high above the mortal plane.

And lastly, we will all be funny and get laid.

And you others go for alcohol. Tsk.

Poor Taco...

[bjtuna]

So let me get this straight: Taco is going to spend New Years sitting on his ass, doing nothing. How is this different from what Taco does during the rest of the year?

Re:I wish...

[secolactico]

What??? No 7th heaven marathon this year??? Is there no justice???

Re:I'll be using one of my Christmas presents...

[Columbo]

I recommend swallows. African swallows. They taste better.

Crocodile Hunter Drinking Game

[CoreDump]

Animal Planet is showing 'Crocodile Hunter' marathon!

Croc Hunter Drinking Game

Supplies:

• A lot of Smirnoff Ice
• Some friends ( inflatable ones if naught else )
• Crocodile Hunter Marathon on AP ( check local listings )

Rules (Everyone drinks when):

• Someone gets bit.
• The phrase "Croikey!" is uttered.

This should have you good and fuzzy by the time Midnight rolls around. But don't worry, you've got all day tomorrow to sleep it off!

Happy New Year to all!

Re:TV?

[trcooper]

Agreed. The thought of slashdotters naked is frightening.

And what's disturbing, is that there's a good chance many of the posters are naked.

Sex in the City

[weave]

The wife and I are going to be watching the "Sex in the City" marathon, since we've missed a lot of episodes over the past year.

Hey, not my first choice, but you have to think of the wife at times like this. And who knows, it may be followed by an episode of "Sex in the Living Room" if i'm lucky...

Re:Music Marathon

[fobbman]

This could have been modded +1 Informative if you would have listed the address of the party.

TV?

[BelDion]

Television marathons? On new year's? Mwaha, I laugh at the thought when I could be out celebrating with friends, going to great parties filled with beautiful women...

Ok, I'll be watching Transformers. Leave me alone!
