Post-Proofread

Reading an email or text to check for stupid mistakes after it's been sent.

That message I just sent you should have said, "Please *don’t* go on a date with my ex-girlfriend." Good thing I post-proofread it.

proofreading

Checking your god damn paper for incorrect spelling and grammatical mistakes.

I should have been proofreading my paper last night instead of watching "The Office." I could have caught my wrong use of the word "There."

proofread

vi. or vt.
1. Something internet users in general – and multiplayer-gamers, chatroom-goers, email-senders, webboard-poster and instant-messagers in particular – lack the capacity to do (to the things they write.)

I am proofreading my report.

proofreading

Something nobody does on this site, thus paving the way for incomprehensible gibberish that looks like it was written by retarded infants who were thrown at brick walls, half of whom (not the walls, you doofus) were promptly scooped up and thrown farther by garbage trucks. That should explain why this shithole feels like an asylum.

Proofreading your definitions will not give you cancer. Just do it. Please.

proof reader

Someone who corrects the English mistakes in the work of another writer. The shepherd who safely guides thoughts and ideas through the swamps of the English language. A maintenance worker who struggles to keep that cobbled together bridge between the writers mind and the readers mind called English from collapsing. A harmless drudge who works just as hard on a toilet paper ad as on a work that will be considered a jewel of western literature. A pain in the neck when it's your paper they're correcting.

The quality of your paper is A+, the mechanics is D- , you are a miserable proof reader. I really stink at English my spouse has to proofread all my writing.

proofread

That brief moment after you utilize toilet paper for its intended purpose when you quickly inspect the content before discarding it.

I had to proofread my shit to check for corn.
