drunk texting

Tipsy phone regrets

Drunk texting is sending text messages while intoxicated, typically to an ex, a crush, or someone you'd never contact sober.

The results are often embarrassing, overly emotional, or incoherent: I woke up and checked my phone—so much drunk texting last night.

The verb form is drunk text: Please take my phone before I drunk text my ex.
