Bad Misspells/ Autocorrect.

Post by AmericanMuffin »

So I sent an e-mail to my mom, to give her a link to something my brother wants for X-Mas, and I wrote "The Thong He Wants." Instead of "thing". When she saw it she started cracking up, I asked why. She showed me the E-Mail.

welcome back kid!

try not to give the mods too much headaches :)

You have to check your spelling better, remove auto correct.

you may save some precious seconds but you will prevent more embarassments.

If you google this online you will get lots of funny pics and jokes about even worse autocorrects.

this is one of those taking technology for granted things. Its nice to have, but annoying when it does you wrong.

In undergrad, one of my best friends was a dead ringer for Laura Croft. Not only was she hot as hell, she had a great personality to match and could party with the best of them. She would literally drink beer while talking a shower. She had huge knockers, lived in apartment 3, and drove a Kia, and was known as "Double D Ria, number three-a, kia sephia".

Anyway, we spent days if not months of time at Buffalo Wild Wings knocking 'em back and watching sports. When she moved to San Diego I sent her an email asking many things, but one questions was "So, you hanging out in any sports bras lately?". I meant to type "sports bars", but I liked the typo so much I left it the way it was.

LOL at these comments.

This isn't a typo per se, but I find it amusing:
My wife's a doctor and frequently has to deal with people who have pus discharging from one or more various orifices. On the medical charts, the doctors use the term "pussy" (pronounced puss-ee) to describe an area of the body oozing copious amounts of pus. Always makes me lol, can't they find a less ambiguous (and sexual) word to use?!

the other day my wife was at the grocery store and asked what I wanted for lunch. Seeing as how I was in the mood for balogna, my autocorrect told her I wanted "German vagina."

ANYWAY just go to damnyouautocorrect.com and you won't even need this thread anymore.

Yeah. Makes me a little sad no one hunts-n-pecks anymore.
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

My boss' name is Batool. Before I finally added it to the dictionary, Outlook would correct it as barolo. Considering she's Muslim and doesn't drink alcohol, it was always amusing.
