A phrase used to describe someone who uses fancy and/or excessive speech. In the context of Limbus Company, the phrase was used in a scene where a character explains as if they read the thesaurus, causing one of the main characters to call them out.
Person A: I was struck with sorrow upon the sight of their entrails. In fact, I had gained an epiphany: why must the innocent bear death and mutilation for a root impertinent to them? Had the madmen been any wiser, the townsfolk would have not suffered this tragedy, and would live on to an untroubled life.

Person B: Yeah, we all know you read the thesaurus. So anyways, you saw those poor innocents’ corpses and you want us to take revenge? Y’know we’re not some heroes fighting for justice.

Beach Read

A literary novel that is deeply rooted in the beach house/town. The setting is almost a character in the book. Usually someone is at a crossroads in their life and they find a new path forward through their time at the beach.

A good Beach read takes the pace of summer at the beach - it has twists and turns, axillary characters woven throughout, parallel plot devices, and often a love story in the mix too.
The Beach Read is the perfect novel to accompany one during the holiday to the beach.

Bert-reading

Reading of a petition perform before signing it, to find out if you should support it or not, although the title is convincing. It's the final stage before signing a petition.
X: Did you just sign that petition ?
Y: Yes, why ?
X: You know better! Please do a bert-reading next time!!
Y: Why ?
X: Petitions can be very powerful and being attention to issues that we don’t know about... but I really need you to read some of these before signing. Some of them don’t be saying nothing and actually detract from grassroots organizations that are already doing the work.

reading assignment

Something that teachers assign nearly every night. Students don't usually give a crap and read the assigned material, only to be in shock when there's a quiz on it the next day. On Rate My Professors, they can easily be denoted if they have the Get Ready to Read tag.
I heard our new teacher's a really tough grader. He puts out reading assignments every class and ends up quizzing you on it the next day.
