Think you're a hardcore Orange is the New Black fan? Then why haven't you finished the second season yet? Orange is the New Black's second season is 12 hours and 57 minutes long — and since Netflix began streaming it at 3 a.m. EST, you could theoretically be finishing it right now.

So the next time someone gives you a hard time for binge-watching, remember: if you end up marathoning the whole second season of Orange is the New Black this weekend, you're actually demonstrating some restraint.
