sour scrolling

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!"

Scroll burner

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.

“ That longform essay on Elon Musk’s sex life was a total scroll burner—I read the whole thing in one sitting”

scroll shame

The feeling of regret after having wasted far too much time scrolling aimlessly over social networks instead of spending the time doing something productive.

"I’ve got serious scroll shame today. I just spent 25 minutes scrolling and falling down one clickbait rabbit hole after another. I could have got so much done already but now I’m out of time".

Stop scrolling

"Stop scrolling" is a request that never works. If somebody says "stop scrolling" to you, you won't.

Terrifying white woman: "Stop scrolling, veryuselessperson78!"
veryuselessperson78: "Leave me alone."

And then the dog came in.

Bloom scrolling

When you are reading stories or looking at memes that are genuinely positive. The opposite of doom scrolling.

I spend 30 minutes a day bloom scrolling to remember there's still good in the world.

Scroll

A play on the word "stroll" and the irony of everyone sitting and "scrolling" on their phones.

Meaning to go or move somewhere.

Im going to put down my phone and go for a scroll outside.
