textnesia 

The temporary amnesia you get when texting someone with a question or comment, and having them reply several hours or days, long after you've forgotten what it was you asked them. This also works in chat conversations where the person replies long after you closed the chat window.

Jack: Wanna check out that show on Friday? They got a two for one in the paper today.

Dana (three days later): Sure but I didn't get the paper.

Jack: Huh? What paper? Sorry. Textnesia.

textorist 

One who terrorizes another by sending a massive number of texts to his victim with the sole intent to (a) use up their free texts (if they are such a gignoramus as to not have unlimited texting; or (b) to simply overload their phone and time to delete all the nonsensical texts.

Jane is a real textorist! She texted me 653 times from jail thanking me for not bailing her out. I blew my free texts and my "delete" key! Ugh!!

Textortion

The act of using cell phone text messages to threaten harm on a person or property for individual gain and/or benefit.

Based on a January 2011 criminal incident in Franklin, Tennessee where a man stole a cell phone, was offered a $100 reward "in-kind" for it's return, but instead demanded a higher amount - effectively holding it for "ransom."

Local media (specifically WTVF News Channel 5, Nashville) billed him as the "Textortionist."

On January 14th, 2011, 26-year-old Bradley Vaughn was arrested in Franklin, Tennessee - charged with felony theft and resisting arrest.

His victim had accidentally left his cell phone among the merchandise of a local retail store. When he realized he was missing it, he returned to find it had been stolen. Using a borrowed cell phone, he proceeded to text his own phone in an effort to retrieve it - offering a $100 reward for its return.

Bradley Vaughn allegedly returned the text, demanding $180 - effectively holding it for ransom. He instructed the victim to place the ransom amount underneath a glass of ice at a local restaurant.

The victim informed local law enforcement prior to the ransom exchange. Police set up a "sting" operation and, after a scuffle, arrested Bradley Vaughn - attempting to retrieve the bait ransom money left by the victim.

texting supremacy 

Having the last word in texting form by not responding. Shows social superiority in that one has better things to do than respond to a text that says "kk". Double points if used successfully against a member of the opposite sex. An ego-boosting phenomenon.

Emma: I didn't text Ted back, he tells me he's going to the gym? Like I care.
Elise: Texting supremacy. Way to not dignify that shit.
