Reactive Listening

The art of trying to appear to be listening to someone, but just reacting to the last thing they said in an agreeing manner.

I was talking to my buddy Bob about my daily grind with work, and my wife making a big deal about the "hassle" taking our daughter to Disney Land.

He replied with "Yeah, Disney Land can be pretty stressful." ... He totally missed my point, typical Reactive Listening!

Antonym: Active Listening

reactive acne

If someone injures themself (in this case, typically a burn from carpet, grass or perhaps trampoline) and your body reacts to it in a bad way, you can get reactive acne. It’s a type of acne that spreads like a rash along your legs or arms (depending where you had the injury). If you see a case of reactive acne appearing anywhere else on your body, it is NOT normal. Please go see a doctor, or make sure it’s definitely reactive acne first.

Reanna fell on the trampoline and scraped her knee. Therefore, reactive acne spread across all her legs.
