text timing

the art of skilfully timing your texts when talking to someone you like to make them seem like you're not obsessed but you still like them

boy: hey
(15 minutes later)
girl: hey, what's up
(no pause)
boy: nothing much, you?

girl to friend: yo, just used awesome text timing on johnny and now we're text buddies.

unable-to-text-back syndrome

Being a bloke I have to say this is actually what GIRLS do. They feel the need to play "hard to get" and therefore don't text back, though usually it'll be after a couple of texts so it doesn't look too obvious.

Me: I was texting Becca earlier
My Mate: Cool, how'd it go?
Me: Ok for about half an hour, then she turned on the old unable-to-text-back syndrome
My Mate: Tut, of course...

drunk text

A modern derivative of its cousin, the drunk dial, this involves sending text messages via cell phone to friends, girlfriends, sluts, just friends, etc., usually while in a drunken stupor.

Typically it is used on a desired member of the opposite sex, that is normally not desired during sober hours. This lame attempt to arrange a booty call results from the cowardice of the drunk texter, who fears actually making the drunk dial.

That grease monkey sends her drunk text every weekend at 2am.

Text Raper

A person who texts you for hours and hours even if you say you are busy. A Text Raper has no life but to stare at his/her phone and wait for texts. He/She responds within 15 seconds of a text and continues texting forever, causing mental and physical abuse to you through text messages.

I was texting Rachel nonstop last night! She wouldn't stop texting me! She is such a Text Raper!

Text Message Breakup

The lowest of the low. Quite possibly the best way to let all your soon-to-be angry ex's friends know you have no balls.

(True Story)
Girl: I think we're doing great, I'm going to his house this weekend!
Friend: Aww, that's sweet! You guys are perfect for each other!
Girl: I know! He's the greatest!
-girl's phone vibrates-
Boy (In Text): Hey... Umm... I'm sorry but this isn't working out. I like it better when we where friends.
Girl: WHAT THE F%^&#?!?!
Friend: What?
Girl: I JUST EXPERIENCED A TEXT MESSAGE BREAKUP!
Friend: What a loser!
Girl: I KNOW! HE CAN'T EVEN SPELL "WERE" RIGHT!
