If you’re in a relationship with a man or you even know a man vaguely well, then you know every dude is on some hyper-active, ongoing text thread with his boys. I personally cannot get through twenty minutes of a movie with my man without him picking up his phone, laughing like a hyena at some text, and then giggling like a little child—with his tongue sticking out excitedly—while he composes and re-composes his response to the thread. Male text threads are like some battle to always take things to the next level. That could be the level of offensiveness, disgustingness, or shock value. My girlfriends and I, personally, text each other photos of cute animals and updates on sales going on at our favorite stores. It’s pretty simple. If you’ve ever wondered what your guy texts his boys about on the thread, it’s probably something like this.
Sports roasting
If the various boys root for different sports teams, then when a game is on, they’re just roasting each other, back and forth, about how the rivals are making fools of themselves. It’s invigorating to them; it would look like code to me.
