The Top 5 Texting Faces

Unless you are a robot, you are not emotionless when you text.

The Top 5 Texting Faces

Honestly, texting has slightly contributed to my generation’s inability to talk face-to-face, but we still do all right, given the circumstances. Regardless of who you happen to be, I know you text. It’s a normal thing nowadays. Group messages, individual messages and group messages without that one person you don’t like from the original group message are all a normal part of life. While you are texting, think about the faces you make. If you think you are emotionless while texting, remember that screenshot your best friend sent you last week. Here are a few examples of the "texting faces."


1. I am in a public place, but I must awkwardly smile, but not too much.

We've all been there. It's hard contain the laughter that would have happened had we been in our bed with our Netflix.


2. Why did his name appear on my phone?

Taylor Swift might write a song about it for us. But really, why? I am at Five Guys stuffing my face with fries, and you decide to say "Hey." What does this mean?

3. I look good today, so let's text everyone.

You're bored and need plans. After all, you look bomb today, and it would be a shame to waste a cute outfit. Not to mention, your hair looks fabulous. Then you think, well maybe I can go be hipster at a coffee shop. Maybe I'll meet a cute boy. No. No. No. Text everyone so you aren't getting coffee alone. Fake hipster is not cool.

4. I'm over it.

You are having a conversation with your friend about literally the same thing since forever. Same complaints, new words. Like boo, I love you but we gotta find some new issues. It's been approximately three years. Get it together. Or text someone else about it every once in a while.

5. This is the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life.

Thank the group message that keeps you going in the middle of the week. It is the most important thing on a late Wednesday night. You have a 9 a.m. test and are on the verge of a breakdown, but your best friends have the world's best conversation. So you just laugh hysterically, instead.


So yes. You do indeed make different faces when you text. If you're still in denial, have someone follow you around with a camera. Because I promise, I've seen you walking around on your phone in Wal-Mart. It's funny. Thank the group messages and the best friends, because they are the happy texting faces. Other humans? Well, hopefully you learn how to make the person on the receiving end smile. If you can't, maybe you shouldn't be texting this conversation in the first place. Much love!

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
