lost in textlation

This is when a text message was sent meaning one thing, but was misinterpreted by the recipient either because they couldn't hear the intonation in the senders voice, didn't realize it was meant jokingly and/or sarcastically, or, any other misinterpretation of the text message senders true and original meaning.
"Dude, I was definitely joking when I said your Mom was at my house. I can't believe you got mad. It was just "lost in textlation."

Textipation

That anticipation experienced when you are texting your friend, beloved, or even a coworker and all you see are those the 3 little bouncing dots ... You are on the edge of your seat waiting for the message. The bouncing dots tell you they are there composing something good (or is it bad?) The anticipation is just TOO much.
OMG girl! The textipation I felt when I was waiting to hear from David was just KILLING me!

lost in textlation

When sacarsm, humor, wit, emapthy, apathy, and really just everything gets twisted, lost, confused, royally screwed, and taken too far via texting and/or sexting.

Emoticons are a lame ass way to make this easier.
Jen's morning after text to Steve: "Oh my gosh, I forgot to tell you last night that I have Herpes."

Jen...still waiting....wondering why Steve hasn't called.

Jen should've used a smiley face to prevent her "humor" being lost in textlation. :)
