How long is too long.....for text messages?

I have noticed that texts are becoming longer and longer...replacing emails in some cases. Should text messages be limited to a line or two, or should you send paragraphs? I personally hate that much info being sent in text form, you are constantly having to scroll through them to go re read the info.
I am talking work related if that makes any difference.

I'd rather info in a text than in an email all day. I kinda hate email.

a lot of truth in this

anything more than about 5 or 6 words is too long

i don't really care. I usually don't care what the entire text is about either but at least i don't have to ask 5 questions to get the entire story...and at the end i can reply that sucks or that's great

I sometimes text pretty long, but if it's going to be a book like another poster mentioned, it goes in an email
Sometimes lll start a text not meaning for it to be as long and it end up being long

Don't exceed the character limit

Like this would be considered too long.

Don't be a bitch about it. I understand not wanting to type a long message, but reading one? Dude, it isn't that big of a deal.

it really doesnt matter to me cause I read most of my emails on my phone too

I won't send one that converts to MMS. whatever the frick that is. I just take it to mean I typed entirely too much shite
