In internet chat rooms and instant messaging, "scrolling" is the practice of turning what should be one line of text into multiple lines. This is an annoyance to other users, as scrolled messages take up more screen real estate.

When used in the correct context scrolling can be considered quite sexual, especially amongst nerds. The act of scrolling involves basically performing any sex act imaginable. This allows nerds to have awkward conversations without being awkward at all.
"Hey baby wanna scroll up and down through some websites later?"
"Only if you push all my right buttons if you know what i'm saying...maybe even double click a little."
"Sounds great i'll bring the firewall, don't wanna catch any viruses."
"Guess we'll be scrolling all night long."
An extremely important and irreplaceable activity, that is a part of every office job, and can involve any act that is unrelated to one's job mandate. Some common scrolling activities are fantasy football, social media, exploring Wikipedia and car forums. Advanced scrollers are able to deplete all scrolling materials available for the day covertly, while pretending to be extremely busy. This is usually achieved by professional scrollers through the use of window resizing, redundant spreadsheets, and mobile device utilization, among other things in the scroller's toolbox.
