mass texting

When a text message is sent to multiple contacts within a phonebook.

Kevin: Melanie just texted me and was like, "What's up?"... I thought she said she had plans and couldn't hang out tonight.

David: Yeah, I got that, too.

Lacey: WTF?! I'm so sick of her mass texting and leaving me out!

David: Guess we know why she didn't want to hang out tonight...

makeup text

n. The act of making up after an argument with a significant other via text messaging.

Similar to makeup sex, just more technologically savvy and less gratifying.

Kurt and I got in a pretty bad fight today because I got mad that he always texts instead of calling me. Everything is fine between us now though. We had some amazing makeup text afterward!

dead text

A text received so late that its subject matter is void.

I got John's text about the homework questions too late - by the time I responded, the assignment was already due.

Turned on my phone after finally recharging it and now have a bunch of dead texts flooding my inbox.

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?

Soft Text

1. When you want to hollar at a guy / girl but not be too aggressive via text message.

2. A formal way of communicating via texting.

Let's say you meet a girl & get her number. You should probably send her a "Soft Text" before calling just to break the ice.

Or maybe you want to send a "Soft Text" to someone that your too shy to talk to
