I don't think you should be able to use a word like 'read' if you're absorbing Saved By The Bell trivia. You read Moby Dick. You read Catcher in the Rye. You don't read "Saved By the Bell: Behind the Bell."
Reading is a thoughtful activity. I say we reserve the word for thoughtful, artistic works. Am I judging. Yeah. Guilty. Everything looks better from an ivory tower!
Instead of "reading" let's say "flipping through," for the functional and mediocre pieces, the "meh" works. For instance:
I'm flipping through the menu.
I'm flipping through the instruction manual.
I'm flipping through Twilight.
Oh snap! I said it!

Maybe said "FRIEND" wanted to read about Screech. Maybe she heard about his porn scandal and was intrigued.
I say a Saved by the Bell article is quality reading material. And it has nothing to do with the fact that I loved Zack Morris.
lolol! true. flipping through twilight :)
