Read-Search

A play on the word Research.

The event when students in college are reading for homework, research & essay writing, but gets bored and stops after a certain amount of text, then goes googling things, and/or searching on facebook, youtube, twitter, myspace, etc. Then later return to the reading, only to repeat the process. This extends the time required to get through a reading assignment and often adds hours to the task.

(1)Derek: Hey Sarah, did you finish your essay for the term?

Sarah: No, I tried to write it, but kept getting distracted by read-search. I think I'm going to fail!

(2)
Amy: That article on the human genotypes was so long and boring! Why did the professor assign it?

David: I know! I couldn't read it in one seating without read-searching! It ended up taking hours to finish reading it!

search tangent

When using an online search engine, you see something more interesting that causes you to follow trails unrelated to what you came to search for. Sometimes you forget what you meant to look up in the first place.

Pete: Did you find those instructions on how to make functional battle spears from old rake handles?

Me: Uh, no. Sorry. I went on a search tangent and forgot. But check out these pix of Britney.

A phrase meaning "I don't know," or "How should I know?" It can sometimes be used in an indignant manner.

Person #1: Where's my left shoe?
Person #2: Search me.

"Search me," said Ron.
"Go home then," said Harry.

T-Search

The best memory finder/value editor around.

Great GUI, better functionality than ArtMoney, and integrates smoothly with TKM.

A great way to cheat in games that don't have cheats.

I found the address of my 'health', then I froze it, so now I'm stuck at 100 health.
