Discussion Post | Types of Texters We All Know.

Hey everyone! Welcome or welcome back to my blog!

So, well, Siya @The Dramatic Drama suggested this topic. And well, I couldn’t help but do it! I hope you enjoy it!

1. The Dry Texters a.k.a the cats: Me. The ones who always sound bored
   Okay, I am a dry texter, okay? But it’s not because I am bored, it’s because I don’t know what to say! It’s like what am I supposed to say to ‘I had a burrito today.’ I’ll say, ‘Ooh nice.’, and suddenly I am a dry texter or even worse, the extreme version of it- a cat. Have you noticed cats always look bored?
   
2. The Politicians: The ones who somehow know what to say to everything
   Have you noticed that politicians somehow always know how to respond to all sorts of questions? Similarly, these texter-politicians have a reply to everything. Like to ‘I had a burrito today.’, they’ll respond, ‘Ooh, nice, how was it?’ and when I see that answer, I’m like 🤦‍♀️ why didn’t I think of that!
   
3. The Bountiful Texters: The ones who use such enriching language and text in one long long message
   Okay, so these people say two-three sentences in one text. Like,
   “I had a burrito today.
   It was scrumptous.
   I had gone out with a friend of mine, and had a good time.”
   I mean, nothing wrong with this kind of texting… except I hate long texts. But oh well.
   
4. The Break Dancers: The ones
   Who
   Text
   Like
   This
   *hides in the corner* *comes out after realising people are waiting for her to continue* Uhh, yeah, so I actually sometimes text like this. Like I don’t send just one word (Except when I am excited, I do send one word texts which upon being strung together form a sentence), but I send like multiple different messages which could have been sent as one.
   I am a pretty annoying texter actually. Break dancer + Dry texter does not equal a good texter. No wonder, I get very few texts.
   
5. The Blackboard scratchers: The ones who get on your nerves.
   Okay, have you ever scratched the blackboard? With your nails. I have, on accident. (I am a weirdo, but I don’t do such unpleasant things on purpose.) These people spam you. A lot. And well, I don’t like being spammed all the time, I don’t know about you.
   
6. The Interrogators: The ones who ask you questions, all the time
   Well, these are usually our parents.
   “Where are you?” “When will you come home?” “Why did you go out?” “Who are you out with?” “Why did you get a B in Math?”
   Sound familiar?
   
7. The Star-Nosed Mole: The ones who never see the message
   Star-Nosed Moles are blind animals (Do not look at their pictures, they look scary- kinda like the monster in Stranger Things). Similar to our star-nosed moles, some of our friends are blind or at least turn a blind eye to our amazing texts.
   
8. The Non-responsive ones: The ones who never reply
   These are even worse than the star-nosed moles. They see our message but leave us on read. Heartbreak 100000000
   
9. The Lovebirds: Ugh.
   Lovebirds constantly text each other all the time. Ever see a person online for the past hour, but they haven’t responded to you? Chances are, they are with their lovebird, texting super cringey messages, or saying “I miss you” for the gazillionth time. Well, chances are also that they just don’t like you, but I like to think it’s the former.
   Oh, and don’t even get me started when they text the other one, “Did you eat? No? Why? You’ll become weak.” Once, it’s okay. Twice it happens, fine. But after that I feel like screaming that they are an adult and can take care of themselves and that this might just be an attention-seeking ploy, don’t you see?
   
10. The Dumbasses Clueless: The ones who do not understand what’s going on.
    If you want to pull off sarcasm via text, you must be skilled. But sometimes, other people aren’t skilled enough to understand it. Or other jokes. For these people, I feel that tone indicators must be issued. *in robotic voice* ABC this was sarcasm, kindly respond accordingly.
    
11. The Illiterate: D 1s who type lyk dis.
    My question to these people, do you not know English? Or are you just supremely lazy? Because I get some short forms, like r for are, but dis for this? NO. STAWP.(See, I can type an extra letter, you can’t type it?) STOP. Please, don’t torture me.
    
12. The ‘Emojional’: The ones who uses emojis to express their emotions.
    These people use emojis to express their emotions. Which is fine, if the sheer amount of it wasn’t so darn much! If I type hello, they type 👋. If I type how was your day, they type👍. Like, use words. Can you not?
    
13. The Speakers: The ones who only send voice notes.
    God, these people. If I wanted to hear your voice, I would have called you! I don’t want to listen to your voice, please just text me. And if you find it hard, there’s this feature of voice-to-speech, use that, for heaven’s sake!
    
14. The …: …
    These people use a tad to many dots. Now, I use dots too, while texting. But… imagine that…. someone….texts….like this… Will… you…not… be annoyed? I was annoyed typing this!
    
15. The Accidentals: The ones who accidentally send the text to the wrong person.
    Ah, well, yes, the accidentals. I mean, they somehow send the wrong text to the right person (a.k.a me, I am the rightest person ever, mwahaha, jk).
    However, I think that they sometimes pretend to have sent it to the wrong person, because I have. Whenever I send something to my friends, and I realise, oh no, I’ve overshared, I am like I didn’t mean to send it here. Text tricks 10000.
    
16. The Overenthusiasts: The ones who end every text with an exclamation mark!
    Such bright rays of sunshine they are.
    
17. The cuckoos: The ones who text like an 80-year-old despite being a teen.
    Okay cuckoos hide their eggs with the eggs of a crow, and then those cuckoos which come out of the egg pretend to be a crow.
    Similarly, some teenagers text like, ‘Thanks, dear.’ or send one of those Good morning quotes and I doubt, are they really teens?

Okay, that’s where I’ll stop for today- that was 17 categories! Well if you still think I’ve missed something let me know in the comments! Also, tell me which category you belong to! And if you want to see some specific ‘Types of..’ post, let me know in the comments!

P.S.- 1 I know I posted less than a day ago, but I post these posts as soon as they’re ready, because y’all love them so much (and I do too!)

P.S.-2 I know the post was long, but hopefully it was worth it!
