Read the Door

Its like "the door is right there, leave now" and "read the room" together. So just read the room and leave.

Person 1:"I didn't do anything to her other than say her dress looked like a Hefty's garbage bag, everyone did give me a nasty look once she left the room crying though."

Person 2:"Read the Door."

Man Reading

When a man looks at a piece of paper, unwilling to take the time to read it himself, then asks his significant other to tell him what it says.

Wife: Did you see the pamphlet on the table about next week’s event?
Husband: I saw it, but what does it say?
Wife: Would you stop Man Reading

poop read

A unit of measurement. The number of poops it takes to complete a selected reading

This is a great book. It should take you about 7 or 8 poop reads to get through it.

that reads

When someone is trying to convey a point and it makes sense to you. You do not always have to agree with them, but saying it usually implies you do.

"I think we should go to the pizza place down the street. The waiters are nice and they have a deal tonight."

"Oh that reads, let's go."

left on read

To read a massage (typically a text or on a messenger app that signals the sender when the message is seen or "read"), knowing the sender is aware that you've seen the message, and to not respond.

While the term was invented in 2016, the action was first perpetrated, pre-Internet, by Shepherd, who in on February 17, 1996, received a written message in person, and still refused to respond. If he ever responded is still unclear.

I texted my father about it last week, but no response. My own father has me left on read.

Read

In gay slang, means to publicly "call out" or insult someone on their actual flaws (flaws that would normally be taboo to bring up in polite conversation). Equivalent to the term "roast/roasting someone".

Originated in gay black culture, made popular and used by drag queens and gay male bar/club culture. The term "reading" stems from the idea that these called-out flaws are so apparent, they can be perceived/"read" off the person in question as easily as reading a piece of text off a book.

A perfect example of the internal division and active-attempts-break-one-another-down that exists within the already disenfranchised gay male/LBGT community.

#1: "Read" as noun
Person 1: You know going out and drinking every night is so horrible for your body...
Person 2: This is coming from someone who smokes cigarettes daily and eats microwaveable ramen noodles?
Bystander: Ooh, that was a read!

#2: "Read"/"Reading" as a verb
Person 1: Ugh, I can't believe how much weight I've gained lately!
Person 2: Maybe you should stop eating boxed macaroni n' cheese for every meal and get some exercise.
Person 1: Damn! Why you always got to read me?
Person 2: Sorry reading you is just too easy.
