Nerd Word of the Day: Textpectation

nice

This word was made up by … HFW herself? :shock: Based on … her own experience? on observations of others? :grin:

I just had that problem :oops: :razz: :roll:

Do you win if you get the last text in?

I had this feeling once, when i was waiting a message from my girlfriend!

I don’t text message, but I kinda get that same feeling when I send email.

I believe this to be a textraneous digression, having no relevance… to my world. I feel deeply fortunate to be free of textpectations. :lol:

Textbootation/Textploittation – The text equivalent of exploiting a booty call after the bars have closed.

i.e. I’m horny
Reply: Key is under the flower pot

{ Genders are not a issue here, equal opportunity booty call }

stupid russian guys from the streets!

Oh darling I long to read the words from you fingertips

{ Back in the day it was, “Oh darling I long to hear sound of your voice”

there are 10 comments and 3 of them are yours :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

:shock: Che makes equal opportunity booty calls. (or would that be booties call? I guess it depends on what kind of night you’re having. :lol: )

you jealous? :mrgreen:

no i’m not, cause i can do much more comments!!! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

If she has got a girlfriend over then plural is acceptable :cool:

I have very low texpectations for myself. This does explain my students’ behavior. The little buggers will start to literally jones’n the freak out.

Now we are =, oh noooo I’m one ahead. :mrgreen:

I get the feeling people could come up with a lot of “text” words because there are so many ex- words. I don’t know about twitter. You would need to be a little more inventive.

These innovations are apparently bringing in their own vocabulary and not all of it is very interesting. In fact, some of it is awful.

And I used to think IMing was fun. Excuse me.. sending an instant message.

i.e. I’m horny

Che

:shock: Che, I never knew :evil: . (Not that there’s anything wrong with that. :roll: )

Don’t fly toward the liiiiiiiiiiiiight. :roll:

Textnovation – The act of inserting symbols into a text message.

i.e. ♫ ♪Yeah, come on, come on, come on, come on
Now, text me, babe ♫ ♪
Can’t you see that I am not afraid
What was that promise that you made
Why won’t you tell me what she said
What was that promise that you made♫ ♪

Dear Marina,
It reminds me of an old song by the Beach Boys:
(Singing.)

(oom bop bop)
Shes giving me excitations
(oom bop bop textpectations)
Good good good good textpectations
(oom bop bop)

I ask you, Marina: How many of your boyfriends sing love songs to you? :razz:

Come with me to the dark side.

{ :idea: Hey, who just turned the light on :???: }

Blessed are those who texpect little, for they shall not be disappointed.

Got to be a joke when someone texts while on the toilet :idea:

:eek:

Where will this all end? Is there any limit to gluing syllables together? Sillybles?

Look! Now you’re doin’ it!

It’s sloooooooow good.

What has happen to calling some one and saying , hey Ck want a beer , you say yea, I say ok be right over and there you have it. Its done. We’re sitting around drinking some cold ones why them blokes are are still contextipating about it. Dangnipplefingers. :lol:

My keyboard has ‘Twitterrot’ this is what happens when you text while eating Cheetos, the crumbs gunk up the keyboard. :shock:

How about the nerd word, [etextulation], for every time I hit the send key. My idea has been sent, but “Oh,no! I screwed up again!” Teacher smacks my wrist for misspellings, missing words, and general bad grammar. Oh well, must try again, and again, until perfection.

Here’s a real life example of a guy talking to his wife — not for the value of the conversing with a lover — but for alleviating his Textpectation! http://www.hotforwords.com/2009/02/22/6473-texts-a-month/comment-page-1/#comment-118409
