When I was in middle school, texting with my friends was one of the most exciting activities I could imagine. I had just gotten a cell phone, and I was thrilled to be in constant communication with my classmates. My messages were often meaningless and silly and always punctuated by smiley faces made of colons and parentheses. 

Today, I do much less texting for fun and primarily do so to communicate with my partner during the day or let him know I’m on my way home. But thankfully, not everyone’s texting conversations are as boring as mine. We took a trip to r/texts and gathered some of their most hilarious screenshots down below. So enjoy reading through these messages that probably weren’t intended for our eyes, and be sure to upvote all of your favorites!

    I have some unique insults. I am stealing this. Now my list is "I hope you have tiny bits of eggshell in your omelets for the rest of your life," "I hope a thousand snakes erupt from a fissure in the ground and melt your kneecaps," and this.

    The younger generations are so much more conscience of their surroundings, understanding what it means to interact with such a variety of living creatures. As a Boomer, we started out so strong, but then just stopped. I have greater faith in the younger generations.

    I'm lying on a medical table and the young technician comes to my side and says, "Here, I'll get you off". Hell, I nearly rolled off the table laughing. He's clueless, but then he gets my reaction and says, "guess I'll be rewording that in the future".
