Ever sent an embarrassing text or wrote an inadvertently hilarious post because of auto-correct on your phone bungling things up? Then come on down and spill the deets! On here, for example, I meant to write out Lady and the Tramp but ended up with Lady and the Trump instead. It ended being funny in context, so I kept it. What about you? Go ahead and share.

I once made a typo when typing the phrase food service and it autocorrected to food cervix. I changed it back before I sent it but I had a good laugh.

I once wanted to write to a friend "Im Kühlschrank liegen Käse und Schinken" (German for "There's cheese and ham in the fridge") but what came out instead was "Im Kühlschrank liegen Kinder und stinken" (There're children in the fridge stinking it up) I didn't keep it though And then there's the dreaded sry->sex mixup...

I bitched about this a while ago in - I think it was Dumb Moves in Marketing? Maybe FWP or Pet Peeves. Anyway, the iPhone as of recently likes to correct "come" to "Coke". I've had funnier mistakes but that stands out as stupid and gently caress if I can remember any others at the moment.

My wife can't figure out how to disable auto-correct on her phone and it hates my kids' names, so it keeps changing my daughter to Litany or Pita and my youngest son to Sins.

I respond "kk" to things as a friendlier ok. Except since I once typed KKK, now I'm responding to requests for a grocery stop with a hate group. "We're out of milk can you grab some?" "KKK"

I use my phone for work so it autocorrects normal human things to medical terms all the time. I think the saddest comment on my work/life balance was this summer when it autocorrected "beach" to "VBAC."

Mine keeps changing 'Okay' to 'Party' and it makes me sound way more enthusiastic about stuff. "Hey, do you want to come over?" "Party. I'm on my way"

My phone autocorrected my dog's name to "gophers". I told my mom I had to shave gophers.
