Don't have a cellphone, but love the above site - and anytime I see them posted. Honestly, I really do chortle at some of them!

I don't own a cell phone, but did have to borrow my sister's phone a few years ago to send a text message. The phone didn't have a full keyboard and I didn't really know what I was doing. I also didn't know how to get out of the 'autocomplete' options. Needless to say, I sent a very, very garbled message that actually resulted in the recipient calling (not texting!) me back to figure out what on earth I was trying to say! (Technology is not my strong point!) :/

no.. I turned my autocorrect off ... it's super annoying and really easy to turn off

My phone is the worst for this. I sent a team member an email through my cellphone a very days ago, and my phone changed every single word in the message lol

turn it off.

and those sites showing embarrasing conversations due to autocorrect, so faked. those are totally made up conversations. correct grammar and a real side-splitter of a doozy of an autocorrect mishap, all in one screenshot? who is stupid enough to believe that lol

You see.. without it, I can't spell. I have stubby thumbs.

I sent "Stupid Plastic People Ship" last summer. Me nor the recipient could make anything out of it, and I forgot what I actually meant. LOL

I love autocorrect sites, true or not, its good for a laugh

[anisa]

that's one doozy of an autocorrect

[marstec]

My MacBook autocorrects and it drives me crazy! Even if I do manage to catch it, it takes me several attempts to correct it because it overrides my typing!

I have a blackberry. It has a suggested list of words that pops up. Words that are commonly used or something so it tries to predict what word you want. Anyhow, one day my uber-helpful phone inserted "nuns" where it should have read "buns." (And I'm wondering WTH? Like, I have never used the word "nun" in a text message before so why is my phone conspiring against me?)

"Having hot dogs for supper. Can you stop at the store and get me some nuns."

When I realized the error, I sent a frantic correction message, but again the phone inserted "nuns" instead of "buns." I kept trying to fix it, but the phone kept over-riding me and in my frenzy I sent 8 or so misspelled messages asking DH to get me some nuns. and no! dammit! I want nuns! NUNS! N-U-N-S.

Ugh. I just wanted to drive over my own phone.

[Darth Penguin]

sorry to LOl Ninna..

but getting a six pack of nuns would put a spin on your evening...

I can't even share half the things autocorrect has done to me, it always seems to be R rated. THEN people ask me why those words are in the dictionary. Uhm! I blame Nokia.
