Phantom Scrolling

When you doom scroll so much, you no longer watch YouTube shorts for entertainment, you just do it because you are addicted to the scrolling motion. Excessive exposure may result in endless scrolling through any app that has shorts, including but not limited to LinkedIn.

Please help me. Seriously, this is a cry for help. I’ve been doom scrolling so much that now I am now phantom scrolling.

hard scrolling

Scrolling instagram reels, tiktok or other social media platform in a selective and non-time wasting manner, often with a maximum of three second per video to interest you before you decide to scroll to the next one. This method is used to browse reels and tiktoks in the most effective and least time consuming way.

Hard scrolling is contrary to soft scrolling.

Bro I just spent 2 hours hard scrolling and my thumb is sore as fuck!

Seriously?

Yeah but im hypertraining my algo!

Scroll Pirate

When a friend or loved one unabashedly looks over your shoulder while you are scrolling through your social media feed and reads and comments on what they are seeing. If they reach over your shoulder to scroll back or see a post, this is considered an escalation to a full on feedjacking.

Go back so I can read what she posted
Quit being such a scroll pirate and look at your own feed

Skid Scroll

The name for the remaining roll of toilet paper after someone has wiped their ass with it and then rolled it back up rather than tearing it off and flushing it.

Tim decided it would be funny to leave a skid scroll in the dorm bathroom.

Scroll Hole

When you’re so sucked into meaningless scrolling on your phone that you can’t hear and don’t notice anything going on around you.

“What do you want for dinner? … Oi.. Oi Bro! Hellooooo? Damn she in a scroll hole.”
