screen watching

when you're gaming split screen and the other player watches your screen to see where you are. usually done by stupid nubs.

So I was about to chainsaw him in the back of the head and he instantly turned around and killed me. He was obviously screen watching.

screen shopping

Simply window shopping on the internet, looking through your computer screen rather than through an actual window.

I spend all my time screen shopping on Amazon.com.
