Text Fakie

1.Pretending to be texting; therefore onlookers will think you are busy rather that pathetically sitting there bored and lonely.

I was waiting for the bus when some hot girls passed by, so i whipped out my phone and did a "text fakie" so they didn't think i was sulking like a loser.

text stutter

When you repeat the same letter in a word numerous times even when it's not spelled that way. Unlike actual stuttering this usualy occurs at the end of a word but in many cases there are exceptions. Often used when texting :)

person 1: heyyyyyyyyyyy whatss uppp?
person 2: dude you really have a text stutter
person 1: nnnnnnnnoooooooooo :P

Text back tempo

the rate at which you get reply text messages from a friend/guy.

a high TBT would indicate interest or a good friend

a low TBT means they're not really interested or have more intersting things to do than text back to you.

"My self-worth measured in text back tempo
it's been 2 days and 8 minutes too slow"-Imogen Heap (Half Life).

"i think this guy likes me, his text back tempo is really fast"

Text Delay

The event which happens during an IM or Text message when a question is asked along with a statement, resulting in a reaction to the statement and a second statement by the first person. Finally the initial question is answered and the delay causes a mix up in the conversation.

Text delays are sometimes caused by slow typers or stories that take a long time to type.

Text Delay Example Conversation?
Xxx(10:32:11) hey wasup?
Yyy(10:32:55) nothin much. We won our game today.
Yyy(10:33:06) Did u win?
Xxx(10:33:28) wow! U guys won! Thats the hardest team in the state!
Yyy(10:34:44) ya i played a great game. The ride there was so far.
Xxx(10:35:11) no we lost
Yyy(10:35:43) oh that sucks
Xxx(10:36:12) ya. How long was the ride?

Ashley: Omg, did you see me trip today in the hall? It was sooo embarassing :P
Mark: yeah, you looked like an idiot.

text off

When a boy calls a girl, and she responds with a text, thereby avoiding a verbal conversation but finding out what he wants. Similar to blowing someone off. Boys can do this to girls as well. It's also rampant among coworkers.

I keep getting the text off from Shelly. I don't think she wants me to ask her out!

Jimmy called me last night, but I didn't feel like having an awkward conversation so I'm going to text him off.

Dude, Sally keeps blowing up my phone. I decided to be nice and text her off instead of just ignoring her. That way it won't be weird when we see each other.
