the wrong recipient meme

The Wrong Recipient Meme





Oops. It happens to all of us. In a hurry, kind of drunk, too tired – for whatever reason, you've sent a text to the wrong recipient and it's up to you to do damage control.





¤ Post with your character. Name, canon and any preferences in the subject line.
¤ Others choose one of the options below and reply to your character with a text message that wasn't intended for them.
¤ Communication or miscommunication ensues?
¤ Profit!




1. talk dirty | "baby, you were such a stud yesterday"
Texting is a great way to make your partner spend the rest of their meeting thinking about exactly how steamy action was last night... Unless you sent it to the wrong number, of course. How to explain that one?

2. those dates | "Don't forget lunch at 2! :-)"
Easiest way to arrange meetings, confirming them or just saying thanks for a good time is by cell. Even easier? To screw it up when the invitation reaches the wrong person... Or perhaps your mishap lands you an entirely new date!

3. anger management | "OMFG, you really are an asshole!"
They’ve pissed you off royally, so someone deserves a piece of your mind. Poor recipient, having to put up with a dressing-down of that magnitude. Especially if it wasn't actually intended for them.

4. my condolences | "Jane, I'm so sorry about your aunt."
Someone lost a relative, got broken up with or didn't get the grades they'd hoped for, so you quickly text them your heartfelt sympathy. Let's just hope that the recipient actually has lost their aunt...

5. well done | "I heard about it from my mom. You go, girl!"
They aced their exams, just got published or they had a baby. Something definitely deserving of your congratulations. Hopefully the one receiving it will appreciate the recognition of something they probably didn't do.

6. auto correct | "Dad says we're having pussy tonight."
A completely ordinary message. The concert was amazing, you're running late... Autocorrect just happened to change one little word into something completely different. Something that’s even more difficult to decipher for the wrong recipient.

7. wildcard | "ok"
Want another scenario, something combined or something completely different? Knock yourself out!

You said you had a house in Kyoto, right? How about one of the sakura from Maruyama Park?

THIS IS THE BEST PLAN

Yes please I would like your Japanese cherry
manofiron: (just humoring you now)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Japanese cherry's already been popped. I went there back in 2001. Belize is still yours. And Nova Scotia if you want to get in some whale-watching. I've never been there.

Check your email. I just had your boyfriend send you the deed to the tree.

You deserve a major award like a sexy hooker leg lamp!
manofiron: (yeah no)

Surprisingly, I'm not THAT tacky.

You haven't seen *A Christmas Story*?

Are you fucking serious?
manofiron: (kinda working here)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Totally fucking serious.

Should I? I can get JARVIS to find it.
therealgenius: (...right.)

I don't know, should you?
manofiron: (are you joking?)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, guess I should.

Better idea. Next time we have movie night, we'll watch it. Good? Bad?
therealgenius: (Can you just...not hack everything?)

[personal profile] therealgenius 2012-08-13 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
but i wanted to watch mega shark vs. giant octopus
manofiron: (say what now)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
The humans win.
therealgenius: (NO FUCKING HABLO RUSSIAN)

SPOILER ALERT NEXT TIME OKAY?
therealgenius: Because that's what I'm hearing right now. "Fuck you, Justin!" (Did you get the "fuck you" memo?)

[personal profile] therealgenius 2012-08-13 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
wait is there a sequel because i just see shark vs. octopus not shark vs. octopus vs. humans

is this like the michael bay transformers movies

this is shit. literal shit.
manofiron: (time out a sec)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
What? I don't know! I never saw it!
Edited 2012-08-13 22:45 (UTC)
manofiron: (eh I'm not convinced)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I was making an educated guess. Any time it's anything versus anything, the humans always win. Even if they're not the point of the movie.

You want to watch shark vs. octopus, sure. I don't care.
therealgenius: icon from moon, but hammer gets beat down so (Give me my glasses man.)

manofiron: (yeah that'd be me)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
About sharks and octopuses? Octopi? Octopus. Es. No.

Hanging out with you? Yeah. That I care about.

therealgenius: OH GOD IT WAS SO GOOD MY JIMMIES ARE RUSTLED (AFTER ICE CREAM FACE)

[personal profile] therealgenius 2012-08-13 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Octopi is the correct plural form.

manofiron: (what'd you put in this drink)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Why are you allowed to make emoticons and I'm not? :{
therealgenius: (Bullshit gives me a migraine man.)

[personal profile] therealgenius 2012-08-13 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
It wasn't the emoticon! It was the fact that you made like 35 of them.
manofiron: (do you hear yourself?)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
More is better though.
therealgenius: (Is this face from the outtakes what even)

[personal profile] therealgenius 2012-08-13 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Wider is better, not more.

More is just shit on shit
manofiron: (wow)

[personal profile] manofiron 2012-08-13 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
How is wider better? A wider cake, okay. A wider ass, I'm not really seeing it. More, though. I could give like, a dozen examples of how more is better.
