A Beginners Guide To The "Late Night Text" As Shown By College Boys

The "Late Night Text" is a complex, yet extremely "romantic" method of communication for your typical college boys.

Urban Dictionary defines the term as "When a male in need of testosterone release contacts a girl via text or phone call after midnight for a casual yet erotic hookup," with the example "I'm tryna latenight Melina, but she ain't budgin'". If you're a girl reading this article, we've all been Melina at one point in our lives.

The "late night text" has affected us all. We've all received one... whether it be a classic "wya?" text, a barely English, drunk attempt of texting or a terrible pickup line at 3 a.m., boys are getting quite creative with these texts nowadays.

A few of my friends have graciously given me some of their most bizarre examples of this epidemic. After hours of sorting through tons of laughable screenshots, here are the late night texts that describe it best:

Well, this is how its done boys. The guy who invites you over shortly after he sends a pledge to come get his clothes back from your room. That's romance if I've ever seen it.

Oh, you're probably so lonely after your dog died. It seems like you two were so close!

The guy who uses the election to get you to come over. Nicholas Sparks, I sense a new romance novel inspired by this one.

And just when you thought it couldn't get any weirder, it does. You, my friend, really know how to smooth talk a girl.

We all love a guy that refers to women as meat. Or sex as "boning" for that matter. How long could the line really be?

Dear whoever wrote this sad, unfortunate message... I think any girl can confidently say they would literally rather buy the entire Chipotle franchise than have sex with you after that response.

Well, at least this guy is honest. Maybe that was his strategy?

Well this guy took a creative spin on things... A for Effort! Dear Anonymous Boy who wrote this message, definitely consider changing your major to Art.


The guy who you thought just had a really good taste in music...



It seems like we have the next Einstein on our hands! If anyone is ever squished in the car for 2 hours and needs water, text this guy. He knows exactly what you need.

Oh, and the winner of the worst guy of them all goes to... this guy.

Through all the jokes and humor of these messages, I do have an obligation to comment on the sad truth of this last one. Do not let a boy, or anyone for that matter, ever tell you what to do with your body.

Some of these messages, however, belong in a hall of fame. Thank you to these boys for the entertainment, you have shown us all the true meaning of the "late night" text.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
