Third-Reading

When one is reading a romance book and feels as though they are third-wheeling with the characters.

required reading

Just another bu**s**t compulsory activity (like in-depth studying of history or science or chemistry) in school dat usually just wastes your time/energy/patience and very seldom has any use in future life or employment.

I imagine that "required reading" has often significantly contributed to childhood dissatisfaction and lack of bonding among siblings, since many a youngster has had to sadly play by himself because Big Bro/Sis had to study books instead of paying attention to said toddler.

Read it to you

When somebody shows you up.....humiliates you.......makes you look dumb

That lawyer really read it to you, too bad you lost the case!

Mastur-reading

Pleasuring one's self to a novel or any form of text that doesn't involve another person. (Not to be confused with sexting)

I spotted an old man mastur-reading in the far corner of the library.
