A piece of digital content—like an article, story, or thread—that’s so compelling, you can’t stop scrolling.
Like “page turner” but for things you read on your smart phone.

This is when you are scrolling on social media and the more you scroll, the more angry, bitter, irritated, or sour you get. It happens all the time.
Kelsie: "OMG! Can you believe that Luna is going to Greece?!?! I'm so jelly!"
Rachel: ""Yeah, whatever. (continues looking into her phone with a scowl)"
Kelsie: "Hey! You know you can just stop it with the sour scrolling and be irritated with what's happening in your life!"
Rachel: "You mean like you being that bitch almost daily? Nay to that yay!"

When you are scrolling through pornographic websites while edging. Usually due to being unable to pick a video or due to seeing something better a little more down. Synonymous with "Scroll Edging" and very similar to "Goon Scrolling" also the point of edge scrolling is to eventually nut while Goon Scrolling can simply mean pleasuring one's self whilst not going all the way.

That moment in the morning when you are walking to work or sitting in public transport, so you take out your phone and go through all social media apps to see what you've missed
-Wow, opera house has collapsed. Did you see it from the bus?
-Not really. I had my morning-scroll and didn't notice anything besides my Facebook and all the posts about this.

1. A scroll alert is a cross between a spoiler alert and a warning to ‘keep on scrolling’, recently invented. Not in wide use.
2. The information which follows ‘scroll alert’ will a) go against the norm b) will involve an alternate viewpoint which may go against your grain, beliefs, and quite possibly piss you off, c) may actually mess with your world and cause you to readjust and grapple with your values for a minimum of three days, and quite possibly more.
3. A scroll alert is a warning or disclaimer.
4. These words indicate that you are forewarned to “Keep on scrolling” unless you’re willing to engage. Just like a spoiler alert, scroll alert is a warning associated with giving away the main or turning point in a politicosocial event.
5. Precedes a statement that someone earnestly believes themselves and knows will really piss people off.
6. A term to describe the revelation of crucial elements (i.e. purported unverified facts, cause of deaths, viewpoint twists, attribution of responsibility, etc.) of a situation involving values (political, religious, moral, social etc.)

SCROLL ALERT
Charlottesville….REALLY?
After seeing a host of one-sided posts, I’ve gotta share my views. First of all I don’t see how people can claim any responsibility if they only see one side. That situation was a TWO-SIDED one.
