After a few minutes two people in the group will ALWAYS start their own 200 text conversation that everyone else is stuck reading.

Someone in the group inevitably becomes annoying and when you try to text another member of the group taking smack about that person you'll accidentally send it to the very person you were talking about.

As soon as you sit down for a movie or something that requires your focus, everyone in the group decides it's now the perfect time for a lengthy discussion.

But the moment you don't have anything going on and actually want to talk, the group chat has become a desolate wasteland with no signs of human life.

If you missed the start of a conversation it's almost impossible to catch up because every time you try to scroll back you get a new text and the screen automatically goes back to the bottom.

Since you're all in different time zones, everyone starts texting before you're up or after you go to bed so your phone keeps vibrating like a thousand wasps are in your dresser.

If you do decide to put it on silent, you wake up the next morning and think you've received messages from everyone you know. Turns out your group text just decided debate if Kristen should get bangs for three hours.

The worst is when someone adds you to a group text with a bunch of numbers you don't recognize. Now if you respond a dozen randos will have your number.

Of course one person in this new group is someone you secretly hate and would never want to have your number.

You could tell them a thousand times that you're at work and will get in trouble if you get a bunch of texts, but they never listen.

One of your dumb friends will change the name of the group to something like "Mom" so you end up accidentally texting something terrible to your parents.

Now you have the ability to leave group texts, but how big of a jerk would you look like when everyone gets the notification that you left?
