columbo text

Deliberately omitting a vital (or not) piece of information from a text, only to send it in a second text a moment later, prefixed with the phrase "just one more thing" - either for the purposes of annoyance, or simply because its awesome.

Texter A: hey man, you still on for pizza?
Texter B: yeah, I'll see you there
Texter B: just one more thing...cool. Trololo
Texter A (having had to get his phone back out) : fucking columbo text

Text Lag

The time between when the light turns green and the moron in front of you looks up from his texting and realizes it.

Intersections are much safer now that we have text lag - no one ever takes off as soon as the light changes any more.

shotgun texting

To send a huge text message all at once, resulting in text messages being split in to parts. at the other end those parts, often come in all jumbled up and fills the cell phone screen.

Sometimes not all the "parts" get through — "hits the target"

Long winded shotgun message (100 characters or so)
<send>

Receiver sees:
Part 2/3 section of long winded message...
Part 3/3 section of long winded message...
Part 1/3 section of long winded message...

Receiver responds,
Whoa dude! machine gun texting might be annoying, but shotgun texting is not much better. It's all mixed up.

tete-a-text

That strange condition of instant intimacy afforded through text message conversations. An unanticipated emotional closeness facilitated through the use of messaging technology.

Susan had simply exchanged glances and phone numbers with that guy who tried to pick her up on Friday. Over the next two days, though, through a series of tete-a-texts, she was amazed at all the personal stories about herself she'd given away.
