(slang, rare) A long period of chatting.
A slang portmanteau describing a prolonged, marathon session of chatting — whether in person, on the phone, or across messaging apps. Modelled on "marathon" and the popular "-athon" suffix used for extended events (talkathon, hackathon), a chatathon is what happens when a conversation meant to last twenty minutes stretches into hours of catching up, gossiping, or debate. The word has natural appeal in an era of DMs and group chats that never really end.
