Sometimes I use my kindle fire to browse and comment and if I type "fav" it will autocorrect it to "fag"! Fortunately, I've caught it every time! I believe in the UK it means something different, but it in the US, it would be quite slanderous to write, "great photo - FAG!" Hahaha.
Just curious to know if this happens to anyone else or if anyone has actually sent or received a comment that said "fag"?!
(I did a super quick search on the discussion board and didn't find anything, so I'm sorry if this is a repeat!)
My goes to FAVE, just like that, all caps. I think I trained it to do that. One time though, I meant to type Thanks very much, and I did something wrong to the very much part, because it autocorrected to Thanks douch. I was so happy to catch that ! I use an iPhone , btw
@cristina3611@grecican@5unflow3r@pwallis Thanks for this little post and your funny comments! I'm getting ready to call it a day on "one of those days" and it was great to end it with a laugh!!
No... I actually don't think my kindle has corrected anything yet, which is a shame because if anyone needs a spell check it's me.
I do have to thank you, however, for making a post where there would be profanity. I love profanity. If we could throw in some nudity and immoral behavior I'd be right at home!
Nice shit comes up a lot in my comments too. I think I've caught it every time, but I can't say for sure. Maybe I'll just leave it from now on....I mean it is still complimentary. And I would say it if I was talking to the person, what's wrong with typing it? Even if I didn't actually decide to type it.... @pwallis@sianipops@cristina3611
