Shit Take

A hot take that is so shitty that it doesn't even qualify as a hot take anymore, thus becoming a shit take

Person 1: You know, gatekeeping is a great thing, I don't know why so many people have a problem with preserving the integrity of the hobby.
Person 2: Dude, you're painting plastic space toys that cost 1000 dollars and making them fight other space toys, that is a shit take and a half if I've ever seen one.

take a number

Figurative: "If you want to discuss this topic with me, you will need to wait your turn, as there are any number of others who wish to do so who got here before you did."

Comes from a line control mechanism that is found today with decreasing frequency, where one is requested to take a numbered ticket from a strategically placed dispenser and accordingly wait for that number to be called.

Your computer just blew up? Take a number, I've been getting calls on that all day.

take a reading

(verb) to take a reading is to check out a particular situation in a small way, in order to get an accurate idea of someone's character, usually for the future when the stakes may be higher. The person who is curious may do this deliberately -- or accidentally, for example by observing how a certain person treats others.

Friend #1: "Should I loan Alex my car?"
Friend #2: "Didn't you take a reading last year, when he borrowed your bike and returned it all beat up?"
OR
Friend #3: "Yeah, David definitely seemed like the man of my dreams, but I had to take a reading when he was rude to our waitstaff."
Friend #4: "OMG, how pathetic!"
