reading game

The Reading Game is a question and answer game built by you, the quality of the questions and the contents of the quizzes is up to the users. It is a Moodle module to be released later this year 2013. It leverages game mechanics to make the participants' interactions with the game, fun. The quality of the questions and quizzes is up to the participants who receive points for their efforts in both asking and answering questions. Participants can also rate questions, allowing them to directly impact the contents of review quizzes, while also activating a secondary reward called 'stars' for those participants whose questions are deemed outstanding by their peers. The acts in the game form the basis of continuous formative feedback and meta-cognition.

What is the reading game?
a. a question and answer game built by you and your cohort of learners
b. is inspired by medieval scholarship of reading books and questioning texts
c. is based on Socratic dialogues between teacher and learner
d* a lot of fun to play because of the above choices

read description

An easy way on eBay to say that whatever item you're selling is absolute dogshit, or has some sort of overwhelmingly huge flaw that would render it useless. e.g. "iPhone XR good condition READ DESCRIPTION" and in description, "BAD ESN" (this means you can't activate it, it's probably stolen).

Or a good one, is when they are retail demos and have SCREEN BURN-IN. Who the fuck wants to look at a burnt-in image?

Stolen shit usually is "read description" since they probably ripped it out of someone's hand.

Often, the seller will say, "re4d", "l00k", or some other bullshit to prevent you from subtracting their trash listing from the results. Also, same applies for "icl0ud", "cr4cked", and other things like "acc0unt". Really disingenuous stuff. Report them whenever you see them.

"iPhone XS MAX GOOD CONDITION READ DESCRIPTION"
Description: "... BAD ESN iCLOUD LOCKED"

accordion reading

Online reading phenomenon in which a person begins with a list of links to articles/blog entries from an RSS feed (such as Google Reader), and opens several as new browser tabs.

While reading through the tabs one by one, reducing their number, the person finds links to other articles/blog entries, which will be duly opened as additional tabs.

The result is that the number of tabs on the browser continually expands and contracts, accordion-style, and before you know it you've wasted half the day reading an endlessly regenerating stream of linked internet nonsense.

Guy 1: Dude, where have you been?
Guy 2: Sorry, got caught up in some accordion reading online - couldn't stop adding more and more new tabs of stuff to read. What, is it time for Church?
Guy 1: Um, it's actually Monday now.
