A text conversation between Otto and his girlfriend Sadie.

Sadie: Don't forget, we're all meeting at the ski resort this weekend for your birthday bash.

Otto: I know. Can't wait!

Sadie: I have a surprise for you too.

Otto: What???!!!

Sadie: I can't tell you. It's a surprise.

Otto: Oh, come on!

Sadie: Okay. I'm banging your best friend from high school.

Otto: WTF??!! Yeah, well I've been nailing your sister for years. So there!

Sadie: Autocorrect changed that. It was supposed to be "I'm BRINGING your best friend from high school."

Otto: Uh.... Cool!

Sadie: Nailing my sister, huh?

You naughty boy, Christopher! You nailed it again!😄

Thanks, Neville. Autocorrect is the bane of my existence, but it's always amusing when it happens to someone else!

Autocorarect ! It plays silly games with me too. I'm normally a very good spell checker myself, but you have to be so vigilant. Two days ago I sent an email to my new boss and the title made no sense due to auto-bloody-correct. Lord knows what she thought of me! :-(

Thanks, Robbin. It definitely likes toying with me.

Neville, I think autocorrect is the first sign that artificial intelligence will one day take over and run roughshod over mankind!

Agreed! :-(

Given how badly autocorrect can work, I think we're safe for quite a while yet ;)

I have proved that autocorrect can't see properly into my mnid ! And it doesn't seem to even try on the Drablr comments!

Well, Jeff, I think autocorrect is doing it on purpose to try and drive us mad and then it will be easier for them to take over because we'll be too batty to resist.

I always try to hold my secret confessions until I verify the other person's "confession" was legit LOL. You never know these days!
