Textplination

A term used for either clarifying, or further bungling your previous text to someone.
Often used to clarify typos, inadvertent texts you intended to send to someone else, or for apologizing for previous day's drunk-texting episode. For typos, an asterisk is usually indicated to fix one word (*example) For other purposes, endless rambling can ensue.

Textplination at it's finest: "Hey reverend, sorry about inviting you bar hopping lol, see you at church Sunday :)"

Textplain

To try and explain something in a text message that requires substantial detail and often takes 5-10 text messages back and forth for clarification. In other words; textplaining is a waste of time.

The fool: "Hey what's up? What did you do this weekend, and what do you think about life as a concept in general?"
The victim: "Come'on now. To textplain this would be insane! Ante up and call"
