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".

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.”

Phantom Scrolling

When you doom scroll for so long on YouTube shorts or TikTok that you randomly break out in scrolling motions throughout the day, though you may not even be on your phone.

Friend 1: Bro snap out of it. You are phantom scrolling the air.

Friend 2: Huh…oh dang whoops.

Friend 1: That’s gotta be more addictive than cigarettes. You need help.

Bowl Scroll Leg

The toe tingle felt after an excessive amount of bowl scrolling.

I could barely stand to wipe once the Bowl Scroll Leg kicked in.
