Reddington

A unit of measurement, which measures how far an act gets you to getting laid.

1 Reddington means the action has directly lead to sex.
A few reddingtons can mean you are close (i.e. being only a few away), but negative Reddingtons means it has actually hurt your chances of having sex.
"So I thought helping this girl study for her midterms would just be a nice thing to do, apparently it was Reddington worthy."
"Really?"
"Yep, she fucked me"

"Hitting on this girl who already has a boyfriend was an awful idea."
"Go figure right? You're definitely in the negative Reddingtons now, and with all her friends she told too."

take a reading

(verb) to take a reading is to check out a particular situation in a small way, in order to get an accurate idea of someone's character, usually for the future when the stakes may be higher. The person who is curious may do this deliberately -- or accidentally, for example by observing how a certain person treats others.
Friend #1: "Should I loan Alex my car?"
Friend #2: "Didn't you take a reading last year, when he borrowed your bike and returned it all beat up?"
OR
Friend #3: "Yeah, David definitely seemed like the man of my dreams, but I had to take a reading when he was rude to our waitstaff."
Friend #4: "OMG, how pathetic!"
