"Ashley just publicly humiliated me by talking about how Brandon dumped me for his cousin. It was total backspacing"

backspacer

When IMing with someone, you notice in the status bar that the person is typing, but after a minute only replies with LOL! This may be done because the typer starts a thought but doesn't want to get into it.

me: ...Minas Tirith is the castle at Gondor
drew: *yawn hehe
me: wha!?
drew...after typing for 2 full minutes: lol
me: Backspacer!
drew: bah!
