T.I.T.T.I. is an acronym for ‘ Too Important To Text It ’ .
We are increasingly dependent on our cell phones and mobile devices to send all kinds of
information & messages. Sadly, sometimes people share very personal and touchy information through these devices instead of actually taking the time to meet the other person and talk to them face to face.
It is easier & more convenient, yet totally
inappropriate , for people to deliver bad or
devastating news through a text message or an
email. It is a cheap way of avoiding an actual in-person meeting with the receiver of the information.
A T.I.T.T.I. situation is when the information is simply too serious or too personal to be delivered coldly, through electronic means. It is not always easy, but talking face to face is one of the things that still makes us human. It just shows way more respect towards the other person, and sensitivity towards the situation, to deal with problems one on one.
Dude 1 : ‘ Bro, I heard John wants to break up with Sally after
going out with her for two years ! What a bummer ! ’
Dude 2 : ‘ Yeah, I know. He told me about it. I told him to at least man-up & tell her
face to face. He owes her at least that much. ’
Dude 1 : ‘ Eehck…. So akward ! ’
Dude 2 : ‘ No choice dude. It’s a T.I.T.T.I. situation man. Too
Important To Text It . ’
