On another forum: "Co-writers Whalecum". [welcome]

I was bitterly disappointed by the lack of wanked whales.

Ouch. It sounds like some sort of auto-correct.

I think she writes teenaged fan-fic, so am not sure how she could have taught her auto-correct "whalecum"!

It did amuse me, though , after I got over my disappointment!

I was about to jump in, like a right smartarse, to say ambergris! But I've just googled and found out that it's whale vomit, not "cum".

Agent, what happens when you google Whalecum?

Surely the correct term is 'sperm whale?'

I thought this would be about annoying pronunciation.
