“Can you open door?” read a text message received by HuffPost Senior Culture Writer Zeba Blay on Thursday morning. It was from her mother, who was nowhere nearby.
Senior Food and Style Editor Kristen Aiken received a text from her grandmother on Thursday that read “Nice looking boy!” Her grandmother rarely texts and they hadn’t been talking about a boy.
Numerous people woke up to odd text messages like these ― sent from friends and family members, exes even! They seemed to make little sense. The messages appeared disjointed, not relevant to any current or ongoing conversation. To add further mystery to the ordeal, people weren’t just receiving these messages. Others were accused of sending them ― despite not having any evidence in their outgoing message logs.
One reader, Debra Achatz, told HuffPost in an email that she received a text from her husband of 50 years that simply read, “Dakota.” He died in June.
Achatz also noted that the message wasn’t like anything her husband had sent her in his lifetime. Though, she said, “he did travel across the country in [January] 2019. I think it’s a longshot, but he could have texted me that he was in North Dakota. Not like him though to drop the ‘North.’”

The company’s global headquarters are in Tampa, Florida, U.S., and it has regional headquarters in Costa Rica, Argentina, Dubai, Luxembourg and Hong Kong. (Wiki)
Yep! Your cellphone text message service provider has headquarters in Argentina, DUBAI (Middle East) and HONG KONG, CHINA!
So there’s that!
I got one a 2:42 this morning.
The more techy you get the more vulnerable you are.
Heyyy, that happened to me too - some of it.
Got a text from a friend “LOL .. what?” apparently I sent her an LOL text at 2:15 am.
She showed me a screenshot of having received it, and I showed her a screenshot of not having sent it.
Good to know we aren’t going crazy!
“Then she asked me if it was meant for someone else.”
No wonder you drove down to the Verizon store!
I’m glad you found this article. Whew!
Yes, she is a very nice woman. Not the jealous type. But I just couldn’t stand the thought of her thinking that for even a second. So I had to investigate...
Fellow at work received a “WTF” text this morning about the same time from a text some 18 months earlier.
1 Short Ton [US] = 32,000 Ounces.
1 Long Ton [UK] = 35,840 Ounces.
1 Metric Ton = 1,000,000.00 Grams.
That one from the Deceased Husband sounds like an Afterlife thing. I know it would have Freaked Me out.
At 17:38 11/05/2019 I got a double Text from 1-201-389-9757 that both were the same.

Veteran's Day, maybe.
I would say definitely aliens.
I got a text message yesterday informing me that Epstein didn’t kill himself.
Well, that used to be a “ton of texts”.
But you’ve used the older standard for uppercase to lowercase and emojis. The ISO ratio of emojis was updated in late 2017. Black pixels are heavier now, colored slightly less.
“What does a ton of texts weigh?”
Heavy on some minds....
Another question could be, can a load of texts be used as fertilizer....and does a boat load of them float....
Deep State meets Sky Net???
Trial run for October surprise. Text claiming Trump was just arrested on a morals charge to go out on Election Eve.
Wouldn’t surprise me one bit
That they would try something like that
