The modern equivalent of phoning it in, but even more lazy / less inspired because you don't actually have to talk to another person.

1. an invention that allows people, usually in their teenage years, to talk to more than one of their "friends" at once

2. the reason kids don't learn as much at school...except maybe a better way of not getting caught using your phone.

3. something the majority of people over the age of forty can't seem to figure out.

4. the easiest way for you to ignore someone that you don't want to talk to.. as opposed to refusing their phone calls.

5. something parents hate you to do all the time, but what we can't stop doing.
1. Rachel: hey hoe whats crackin'?

Cheryl: hey slut i'm just texting like 400 different people at the same time.

2. Mother: hey sweetie, what did you learn at school today?

Child: *click click click*...what? sorry...oh nothing

Mother: nothing?

Child: uhhh...nope?

3. Adult: GODDAMNIT! how in all hell does this work!?!?

Teenager: *sigh* omg. wtf? y dont u no how to work it? its so ez

4. Person you don't know but somehow has your number: hey you.

You: *delete message*... what message?

5. Kevin: *laughs to self about a text he just recently recieved*

Parent: what are you laughing at?

Kevin: nothing

Parent: you're kidding me right? are you texting again?!??!

Kevin:...

The common practice of typing messages on a cell phone to recipients, rather than just just take the twelve seconds to call someone. Most often performed by teenage girls, these messages often include such front page news as: "OMG did U C her @ss? Itz HGE" or perhaps the ever-popular "WTF? Dani just broke up wit James!!!11!"

These messages are often life-changing, as it seems that nobody ever actually speaks to one another anymore.

My favorite example of the texting is when a teenage girl is driving, head bent down facing her cell phone, as she texts while in traffic. Young teenage girls are considered the best drivers, so surely something as simple as texting would never take away from their near-perfect driving skills. This is often proven by the practice of never using turn signals, as telling Katelyn about when to pick her up at the mall is WAY more important than letting the cars behind you know that you are about to cross three lanes of traffic.

All in all, perhaps a few head-on collisions and loss of driving privileges will be a good little lesson to the self-absorbed teenagers of today.
Texting girl driver: LYK OMG did U C TWILIGHT YET? ITZ SO FREAKIN KILL!

A form of involuntary servitude to one's cell phone. Eventually, this slavery becomes a connection that a person deems neccesary for survival. However, for this person's friends, it is usally an annoyance. If this person and his/her peers are, for instance, playing sports, and his friend throw him the ball, that friend will be displeased to find that the person has given up on the game and has decided to text his girlfriend who has spent the past several hours with.
Johnny: Man, I can't believe it, I'm finally beating you in Halo!

Rick: Yea, man.

Johnny: This is awesome! *looks at Rick* Wait, what are you doing

Rick: *is texting* Uhh... nothing man...

Johnny: COME ON MAN!! You spent the last SIX HOURS at your girlfriends house!!

A recently facinating type of communication by cellular devices that everyone; and I mean EVERYONE seems to be using. Apparently it's mentally &, physically addictive; much like sex....or Myspace. Mainly consists of a few shortened words that often have no meaning what-so-ever.
A texting conversai is sually somewhere along these lines:

"ayyye"
"Hello."
"wad up"
"The Ceiling, You Fucktard."
"lyk omfg, u dont got 2 b so bitchy"
"I Wouldn't Be, If You Learned To Use Proper English."
"fck u"
"Yeah, Up Yours!"
