I WOULD highly recommend against DRUNK texting. Especially with co-workers. Your results may vary,
“if their text messages are “repeatedly rude, mean, insulting, controlling, stalker-like, angry, inappropriate, and selfish”
It sounds like a Biden speech.

Or drunk posting on FR.
Tell them to Fluff Off.
Problem solved.
I do the occasional group text to people for various reasons, usually related to the cubs, and will do very short texts. Generally "Call me" if it is something complicated.
..and it shows...
Whashoo mean you bigs stinjee poopy head dfreak /<...3
toxic femininity???
Same here.
I *HATE* group texts.
My phone is NOT my lifeline to the world. I have a flip phone (dumb phone) for calls and occasional texts, but it’s not easy to text on for longer messages. If I have something more to say, I might use email or probably just call the person.
I don’t use voicemails either. Hate those as well......
I’d prefer texts over voicemails. Just tell me to call you or just try calling me.
I propose that we step outshied...
LOL

Thank God, I don't text, mod pull, beotch, as Rush would say.
Guilty.
All I’ll ever do is call or email. I have never sent a text in my life, and don’t intend to start.
LoL! You have never made a drunken text, and Biden is not senile, correct.
I had to learn when my kids were in college.
I didn’t know their class schedule and although they couldn’t answer the phone in class, they could answer texts. Usually it was to tell me they were in class and would call back later.
Same thing with my kids working these days although I have their work schedule down better since it’s pretty regular full time jobs.
“I *HATE* group texts.”
This week we had a small uprising in a group text of many cousins. Hope it all blows over soon.
