texticopter parenting: texting your teen at school to see if they've signed up for a class, conferenced with a teacher, remembered to pack warm enough undergarments for after school sports, etc.

rhetorical textion

A text message asking a question that is not meant to be answered. Frequently addressed to the originator's entire phone book.

These messages can cause confusion by causing dozens of people to think that someone wants to hold an actual conversation with them, when in fact the sender of the message was simply lonely, amused, drunk, or all three.

Alice: Carol just texted me, 'Why the hell can't people in Atlanta use their turn signals?' How the hell should I know? I *do* use my turn signal!

Bob: Relax. It was a rhetorical textion. She sent it to me, too.

Textican Standoff 

This is when two parties (most often a couple) find themselves in a heightened state of readiness whereby both eagerly await a text message from one another while each is simultaneously unwilling to send one. Often, the first to cave is perceived as being a weak, ineffectual, or submissive.

bystander one:
wow, have they been like this all day?

bystander two:
Yes, each of them is poised to hit send...but...well, you know...

bystander one:
Sí, Sí. They've got themselves a Textican Standoff.
