When one could care less about proof-reading something they have typed on the computer before submitting it and onlyscroll through to make sure no words are underlined in red.
Ex 1: I received a horrible grade on my midterm essay because I finished it so late at night, that I only had time to do some quick Red-Line editing

Ex 2: My teacher thinks I'm pretty stupid because I used "their" instead of "there", an unfortunate result from my habit of Red-Line editing.
