I Binge Watch, what about you?

By Noura Sammoura

Binge-watching is a habit that is affecting almost all ages, it’s a way to escape from real life to live the life shown in movies and series continuously without stopping. A majority of people watch continiuosly not knowing that they are getting addicted to the act of binge-watching.

Metaphor used:

The metaphor that is used is two boxes of popcorn each representing the types of binge-watching which are the heavy (binge daily) and light (binge less than once a month), using different corn types (real corn to burnt popcorn) to show the age difference in the box which is shown by a transparent cut in the middle of the box.

Intended Meaning:

The main reason is to show and make people aware that age is not a main reason of binge watching, and that the majority of ages binge with almost the same percentage. The percentage who binge on a daily base is really high and this is a social addiction habit that is affecting everyone.
