Text Jam

When you text multiple people who all end up texting back, making it hard to reply to messages as you keep getting interrupted by incoming texts.

I texted an invite to Josh, Lee, Brian, and a bunch of girls to this party, and when Josh asked me details I kept getting text jammed. It took me like twice as long to reply.
