Auding
(verb)
Definition:
A modern word that means listening to a book, especially in audiobook form, as a way of experiencing the story. It’s the audio-based counterpart to reading. If reading is for your eyes, auding is for your ears.
Coined from the word audio + the suffix -ing (like reading), auding gives the act of listening to a book its own identity—because it’s just as valid, immersive, and real.
Submitted by: J.R. DesJardins
Origin: From “audio” + “reading” = auding, coined to describe the act of consuming books through listening.

I refuse to argue with an autoinfallidoxist. If they do not believe it is possible for their belief to be wrong, then what they take to be right cannot be justified by reality. If the truth were otherwise, an autoinfallidoxist would, by definition, have to reject reality rather than revise the belief.

Get the autoinfallidoxist mug.Supportive, loyal, funny, and kind. They choose their words carefully and are the sweetest and most gentle men. They are extremely good looking but don't know it. Usually have brown hair, always wears a hat, always has a really dark tan, greenish or grey-greenish eyes. They are fantastic builders and fixers, and take their time to complete projects correctly. usually loves being with friends but doesn’t have many, bestfriends with older men. Dumb at love because they only go for looks and body types before anything else not personalities and comparability’s. Girl bestfriend is usually a miranda, rachel, gracelynn, gabbie, or their mother. always wears boots or crocs and loves mud riding wasting money and hunting with their dog. and probably to slow to realize that girl that has a crush on you is worth the time even us she’s not your type. she probably just wants to have fun or be the sister you don’t have. give it a chance for real i promise it’ll be worth it. and trevor aucoin’s are most likely mommy boys you can just tell. and there name spelled backwards is rover with a t . ps they probably have a big truck to cover the fact they have a small dick, but they know how to use it.
Trevor Aucoin is one of the most amazing guys a girl could be with. He is one of the nicest and most handsomest man any women could meet never lose him because i promise you’ll never be able to get him back.
