When a man and a woman start dating, but one of them loses interest and stops texting, and the other person doesn't want to send another text until the person that has lost interest responds to their previous text for the fear that they are seeming desperate. Similar to the Mexican Standoff but with texts not guns.

Also see Textual Standoff
Mike - Hey Jason, how's it going with the girl you've been seeing?

Jason - Not good.. I sent her a text a few days ago and she hasn't responded yet, so I'm in a Text-ican Standoff.

White Trash Standoff often called an American Standoff is similar to a Mexican standoff but specifically pertaining to debt collectors and phone calls.

When a debt collector calls from an unknown number and you hesitantly answer. They ask to speak with you. You claim you’re not there in order to discover who they are first. They refuse to give you the information unless you tell them who you are. Thus a white Trash Standoff.

confrontation amongst two or more parties in which no strategy exists that allows any party to achieve victory.
Unknown Caller: “May I speak with enter your name here?”
You: *thinking it’s a debt collector* “Not at the moment. Who is this?”
Thereby creating a White Trash Standoff

It starts off like a nice, if not more intense and warped game of Edward 40 Hands. You and a buddy duct tape 2 Lokos to your hands, and add two to your feet. But then shit gets real, you're coming up with crazy ideas cuz you both took eight hits of acid. You drive out to the desert, stand 200 paces apart, face each other, and stand there (no walking around weenies), until all eight 4lokos are finished. Whoever finishes first, or doesn't pass out wins the duel.

What you'll need-
8 x 4lokos
1 x shitty car to drive to desert environment
2 x sets of balls
Bro 1- Hey bro, I was thinking about jerking off with a noose, but why don't we just go to the desert and do this 4 Loko Challenge - Summer Standoff Edition?
Bro 2- Hey Alright! It's a beautiful day to die! Maybe we can jerk it if we make it back alive!
