Texts That Would Have Sucked

My friend Daniel was running late for the bus and I sent him an SMS saying, “bus is here”. He replied, after barely getting on the bus, “txts would have suxd”. Which got me thinking, what text messages would you really rather not receive or are rather useless as text messages becasue of their asynchronous nature? Off the top of my head:

“we just left.”
“your fly is low.”
“watch out for that car!”
“i am pregnant.”
“stop talking. he’s right behind you.”
“i’ve just hacked your phone and posted your address book, paris”

and of course, there’s

“i think we should just be friends”

I’m sure there are even better ones I’m not thinking of.
