For this text type, we culturally expect the message to be short (too long causes a negative reaction), informal register, but polite. We expect a certain move structure which typically includes a greeting, indication of how the interlocuters know each other. Some engagement ( a question, reference to shared experience), possibly a compliment. Possibly an invitation for a face to face meeting?)  We expect it to be sent at certain hours of the day.

We expect a brief text with a clear beginning (salutation) and ending paragraph, which can have different forms (stating one's name, a polite phrase like "Take care", etc).
We also expect our interlocutor to react to what has previously been uttered (however, not in this example) and demonstrate at least some sort of interest in what is said.
We expect, especially when we don't know the interlocutor, to state who he/she is and how they got to know us, so a bit of a contextualisation would have been beneficial for the author of the sample text.
We expect turn taking actions by our interlocutors, which are usual for spoken interaction.

I'd argue that they have just met, because the sentence "hopefully hat didn't just creep ya out" which implies that they do not know each other well. Moreover, the show is called "first textual experience". The texter wants to get to know the addressee and attempts to create a less distant relationship. ("So tell me alittle about yourself what do yu like to do?")

I'd argue that this could be a first message from tinder as the person who wrote it very likely did not know the person he/she wrote the message to "Hit me back I would love to chat with you" indicates that the persons do not personally know each other. The primary audience is, in my opinion as well a female in her (?) late teens or early twenties, which is indicated through the question "How's school goin for you?". The secondary, (not intended audience) is "us" and everyone else who watched this specific clip of the Jimmy Fallon Show. However, not specifically stated in the text, I doubt, though the use of lexis and addressing as well, that this text was intended to be read by more than one person.

-       long sentences, use of sentences markers (only sometimes), no continious use of full stops.

-       he does not pay attention to accuracy

-       inferences

-       2 different paragraphs for 2 different topics (general / getting to know the addressee vs. complementing and clearly showing interest

-       in terms of lexical choices  - the way he expresses himself would probably work better in an oral communication and is not really fitting for a text message ("MM", "I mean I got to tell you", ...)

The lexis is informal and simple with no long or difficult words. The lexis is mostly taken from everyday language with a lot of colloquial expressions. The author uses a lot of pronouns as he addresses his audience directly.

Contractions (How's school: what's) - something to expect in the genre of text messages as it contains spoken-like features, text messages are also written rapidly.
The usage of contractions similarly point to the the more personal communication style, it is rather informal.

The writer does not capitalize letters at the beginning of a new sentence/question such as in "and most important of all"... . This shows the informal nature of the text and the spoken-like features.
