Tiger-Texting: This Message Will Self-Destruct in 60 Seconds...
By ImKarn23
Tiger wasn't caught by his tail - he was caught by his texting. Now: There's an app for that!
Yes, Tigertext.com has made it possible to close that pesky loophole forever!
Once this futuristic app is downloaded, one has the ability to send text messages AND photos that will actually self-delete - from the phones of both the text-er AND the text-ee.
Cheaters, sexters, and stalkers can rejoice - reveling in the knowledge that their lives just got easier! They can now more easily indulge in their favorite hobbies while at the same time 'deleting' any nagging concerns of ever being caught, exposed, inconvenienced, embarrassed - or, heaven forbid - persecuted!
Yes, why risk requiring ones trespasses to be forgiven - when one can simply make them vanish into thin air?
Said vanishing act will occur at a precise moment - pre-determined by the originator of the message - with options ranging from between 30 seconds and 30 days. The countdown begins the moment the recipient opens the message.There is also no way for these messages to be forwarded - or saved!
Making it even more enticing - messages are not retained on the tigertexting web-server. They are irretrievably 'gone' - and therefore - cannot be used "in evidence against you."
Is it any wonder then that half a million iPhone and blackberry owners have already downloaded this free James-Bond/Mission-Impossible/Maxwell Smart-type app - with politicians, CEO's, and celebrities leading the charge? Regular folk, pedophiles, and all makes and models of sexual predators will not be far behind!
Yes, this app could prove to be a nightmare for legions of terrified women and children across the globe who are maliciously, malignantly - and often murderously stalked! They will no longer have the option of saving threatening texts or lewd photos - making it even more difficult to receive any form of legal assistance or protection.
But, as long as the Tigers of the world are getting their needs met!
As long as one can now blot out those boo-boo's, boobies, wowzers, and whoopsies! Delete those drunken rants. Secure those secrets and nix those pix!
In closing, the powers that be at Tigertexting.com insist that their product is not named after that 'other' Tiger. It is simply a co-inky-dink - as they would never dream of jeopardizing either his reputation or his brand!
Uh-huh.
You realize we have that in writing, don't you?

My solution is to never send such a text. I sleep well that way.
i wonder as well Michael! I remember the TSA telling us that the human x-ray booths didn't retain records either...hmmmm..Anything is doable in this day and age, me thinks! Thanks for your support, as always!
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....Good man..lol
Very very good the syle as well as the thoughts through all
i like the pictures to lol
Why..thank you sir! I couldn't have done it without a little help from my friends!
Reminds me of Mission Impossible self-destructing tape. Great! Hilarious!
This sounds like an awesome app. I know I could have used it in my wilder days. I'm sure they will have some way for authorities to recover the messages in cases of legal issues.
Thanks for dropping in, Philly! They say 'irretrievable'...but...
Informative and entertaining. You do make me laugh...in a good way. Nicely done!
@Fyrfytr: Good!
.....well lucky me for finding you in this vast endless sea known as the cyber wilderness - and the world truly is a smaller place my fellow Canadian. I like your style with a delicious mix of wit, irreverence, charm and panache and a skill for highlighting the written - and it's not just because I am in a good mood because the lake hasn't frozen over as I sit here and look at the whitecaps and the sun dancing upon it - at lake erie time ontario canada 12:44pm
will post your wonderful hub on my FACEBOOK page with a direct link back here
Interesting but there are other ways to catch a cheating man. The truth will always come out but tigertexting will give them some time....
Lol at TigerTexting saying the name was nothing to do with Tiger Woods. Yes. I believe them too. As if. :)
@epigramman: I think i am lucky you found me, as well! btw - was that a little jab re; 'not frozen lake'? Don't make me stop liking you just as i was beginning!! The authoress of this blurb ADORES HEAT...needs it - and i envy you your waves! Thanks for the comment AND for sharing me!
@Lady_E: Lol..zackly! As if..
And I wonder why this would be needed...another gimmick for those who chose to be unfaithful and cheat...
@KittyK: Ah, Kitty..i see your face and i feel like i'm home..
miss ya!
This place already feels like home!! Lovely to see you in excellent form as always ImKarn23!!
@dazzlejazz: It feels more like home with you here! Welcome!
My goodness... what's he like?
@MichaelJRapp: Completely irretrievable might mean 'completely irretrievable...unless'!
@WillStarr: Hi Will! Good solution. Mine's not quite as drastic, but - I never learned how to send a picture - and I never want to learn! Thanks for dropping by!
@PattyAllen: Your mission...if you choose to accept it...is to find more things to TAXXX!!!!
Now we are entering the world of James Bond or Ethan Hunt. I shall be from now on paranoid every time I hear the 'beep'that signals a message coming in to a cell phone near me. Nice hub and great info Karen.
@one2get2no: Your mission - if you choose to accept it...LOL..
What will they think of next. Voting this Up and Interesting.
For every defense there are two offenses. "Irretrievable" simply would mean "presently irretrievable." I recommend that all junk mailers use such an app and set them for 30 seconds from the time they are sent, rather than the time they are opened!
This is such an amazing technology.
Wow, you learn something new every day! I had not heard of this technology. Sadly, it is just another way for the untrustworthy to pull the wool over the eyes of those they supposedly love. But if it wasn't this, it would be something else. Schemers are always looking for ideas! ;) Thanks for sharing Leslie! Oh wait...how will I cyber stalk people anymore? wahhhh!!! hehe j/k
You always find a great topic - then write your article with humour and expertise. Brilliant, ImKarn. Found this on RG by the way - and friended you there! oh - voted up of course.
Perspycacious: Lol! Good idea!
@Jessica: Cyber stalking is still open and available - just don't use the phone..LOL
@Sheilanewton: Thank you, my friend! Always flattering coming from YOU!
i'm on it
Very interesting. It sounds like a good app, until taking in regard that it could be abused and used to hurt others. The smart thing to do is never send out anything that might land you in hot water.
As far as saving the message, where there is a will there is a way; someone will come up with a solution. :)
I know there are many of us...especially men...and yes that is a sexist comment...that have magic mirrors. We really do believe our equipment is so unique that everyone would be so impressed to see it. Then there are the words and gobbledygook correspondence that we can't share with the ones that really matter. Ugh. Say what you mean and mean what you say and take pictures from the neck up and we will all feel better in the morning. LOL

I guess this will work well for the paranoid crowd. I wonder if there is a way for lawyers to dig the messages up if they really wanted to.
