message limbo

When a text message is stuck in one's outbox.

You think it has been sent but in reality it hasn't left your phone.

When it occurs it brings about feelings of shame, embarrassment and extreme anxiety.

Zoe: why won't he reply?? I text him ages ago!!!
Barb: check your outbox it's probs in message limbo
Zoe: oh... shit. Oh well he's still a bastard.

message bukkake

When a person is suddenly flooded with multiple messages at the same time or close to the same time.

As she was checking her email her phone started vibrating with all the message bukkake from her boy toys. She must have gotten at least 8 messages all at once!

parallel message

Another message individuals express by means of the tonality, volume, pitch, or pacing they use while expressing the main message. It can support, compliment, refute, deny, or even contradict the main message.

When the girl said, "You're welcome" in a tone which said, "You're not fucking welcomed you fucking idiot," I knew something was up. To understand parallel messages say any word in the opposite intonation of what it means. Say "beautiful" while making a face of disgust. Say "ugly" as if you were saying "beautiful."

Multi-Messaging

When you are messaging from more than one device at the same time.

James: Why are some of your messages coming through your phone and some are coming through Facebook?

Val: Because I have both my Mac and my iPhone in front of me. I'm multi-messaging!

message pump

A piece of code that attends a message queue, processing each message in turn.

Message pumps are a staple of GUI programming, since messages are used to receive input.

The program abandoned the message pump and Windows eventually marked the window as not responding.
