Stutter-Reading

I tried to read my morning newspaper but the train was so bumpy I could only focus on every other word - I was stutter-reading.

Night Reading

This is the opposite of DayDreaming.

Katie: Hey, bro, what book are you reading?
Josh: I have no idea. I just put my finger in the book night read it.

Katie: Huh?
Josh: Yeah, you know how when you're in school and you're reading in class and your mind wanders off?
Katie: Ya, like daydreaming?
Josh: Exactly! But the opposite! Night Reading is when you sleep while holding a book, and while you're asleep you'll just absorb the information.
