I recieved a message from my friend the morning after it was sent asking if I was still up, so I decided not to reply because it was a dead text.

dead text

A text received so late that its subject matter is void.

I got John's text about the homework questions too late - by the time I responded, the assignment was already due.

Turned on my phone after finally recharging it and now have a bunch of dead texts flooding my inbox.
