Some people were born naturally talented (I'm looking at you Lebron James and Derek Jeter) and then there are the rest of us sub par humans just trying to pass as average when it comes to any life skills. Just the same, some people were born naturally gifted texters... and then evil takes a human form in the WORST texters of all time. I'm talking answers you six days later because "they just saw this" or "their cat died" or some other highly practiced routine. Yeah, we're onto you. Newsflash: you suck at texting and this article is your wake up call.
Here are 10 signs you are the WOAT aka Worst Of All Time texter (even though your horrendous texting skills deserve a whole lot more):
1. You write back five years later or five seconds later, there's no in between.![]()
If you didn't catch me at the right time, good luck hearing from me at any point in the near future.
2. You always miss when the conversation is crucial/urgent.
Why do I always miss the juicy stuff?!?! W-H-Y
3. You have a tendency to mentally answer the text but then forget to actually answer it.![]()
I saw your text, I opened it, I read it... and then I was way too lazy to actually reply, OOPS!
4. "Sorry, I didn't see this" is in your top 10 most sent texts ever.
I know what I did was wrong but I hope you can forgive me and that we can get through this, considering I'm 100% gonna do it to you again.
5. Your friends get fed up with you because by the time you answer them, they don't even want to talk.![]()
They act like you killed someone when really you're just the slowest texter EVER.
6. You're a "haha" or "lol" abuser.![]()
You religiously put it at the beginning or end of every text you send. Seriously, what's so funny?
7. You get mad at your friends for not answering you right away when you're way worse.![]()
It's fine if I don't answer you for hours but if you don't answer me in .08 seconds, we're gonna have a problem. You def suck more.
8. You make the other person put in all the effort to make conversation.
Lol yeah sooo you're gonna have to ask all the questions and carry this entire conversation because all you'll be getting from me is a few blah words and that's if you're lucky enough to get a response from me at all.
9. By the time you finish reading the group chat, you've missed every good opportunity to say something.![]()
G-d damnit, all I wanted to do was tell my bestie "YOU GO GIRL" when she was throwing shade at her boyfriend and showing our friend group via screenshots but now I guess I'll have to silently react. UGH.
10. You leave hundreds of texts as unread because not only are you not answering them, you have zero intention of reading them.![]()
There's no other worse texting species out there. Yup, it's official: you are the worst. The actual WOAT.
