A phrase used to point out that a friend is constantly texting rather than giving their full attention to the current social situation. It is like they are there but not there.
*While watching the hockey game*
Ted: Damn, Sergio! You have been texting the entire period and have missed every goal. You are texting your life away!
Sergio: *silence as he is busy texting and didn't even hear the comment*
