I (fortunately) have never seen the word before. I guess I don't read a lot of reviews. One time is enough for me though. It does sound lazy and it is irritating. Of course I still don't like "read" used as noun. As in, "it was a good
read." Why don't they take the next step and use "it was a good
watch" for movies?
I'm feeling grumpy today.
