Etymology

The word 'binge' likely originates from the English dialect word 'binge,' which referred to the act of drinking excessively or feasting. First recorded in the early 19th century, it was originally used in the context of drinking to excess. Over time, it has evolved to encompass a broader range of activities characterized by intensity and overindulgence. The concept of binge drinking gained prominence, especially during the 20th century, aligning with emerging public health concerns about alcohol abuse. In recent decades, the term has extended to other behaviors, reflecting a cultural phenomenon where people consume media, food, or goods in rapid succession. This shift in meaning illustrates the changing nature of consumption in modern society, particularly with the rise of streaming services and a culture of immediacy.
