snaptexting 

(verb) a term derived from the popular social media app, Snapchat. Snapchat is typically used to send an ugly selfie or a video, add a caption, and send it to a friend (or maybe a few). They receive it, and once it is opened and viewed the snap disappears.

Snaptexting occurs when two people engage in a conversation on Snapchat using the small amount of text caption you are allowed to add to each snap as a means of communicating.

Snaptexting is not only impractical because of the limited character count, but it is also frustrating because if you do not read the caption in time you can never retrieve the message again.
Morgan: *sends Ray a snap of pancakes* "Look at the pancakes I made!"

Ray: *sends Morgan a snap of a sad face* "I'm hungry, I want pancakes!"

Morgan: *sends Ray a snap of a happy face* "Come over, let's cook sometime!"

Ray: *sends Morgan another snap of a sad face* "I can't, I have finals."

Morgan: Goddamit Ray, stop snaptexting me and just send me an actual fucking text message.
