The lack of face-to-face contact when texting can lower some folks' inhibitions (and, presumably, IQ) to such an extent that now everyone has probably had at least one encounter with someone who decided to message something that really should have been a draft.

#15 My Boyfriend's Creepy Dad
Was at my boyfriend’s house (his dad's) earlier, and his dad always creeps me out. He must have gotten my number from my boyfriend. This was so awkward, I didn’t want to reply back so I just left it. Told my boyfriend, and he’s all "Yup, sounds like him".
