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.
