bender
Days-long intoxication session
A bender is a prolonged bout of heavy drinking: He went on a three-day bender.
The word suggests losing control, abandoning responsibilities, and emerging disheveled.
Extended to other indulgences: a Netflix bender, a shopping bender.
In British slang, bender is a derogatory term for a gay man—offensive and dated but still encountered.
