Tell me your horror text Autocorrect stories please!

[Butterfly98]

Not a horror one but friend sent me a WhatsApp message earlier saying our Christmas tree is really nice as she saw it on DD's Instagram. I replied saying yours is really nice 'as well' but somehow the words 'as well' were changed to 'awful' and I didn't realise until I sent it! Was that the actual iPhone that autocorrected or WhatsApp? Anyway she has a good sense of humour and thought it was funny! Tell me your good and embarrassing autocorrects that you only noticed after you pressed 'send'!

"Hello daddy", "who's this?" has me outright laughing, poor bloke!

Craving Coca Cola I texted my partner with a request to fetch "a bottle of come".

Mine aren't terrible but I have told my DH that DCat is "snorting" instead of snoring, as if he was a druggie!

DH asked me when a shop was open and I sent back "chino" instead of dunno... Then tried to send question marks and sent a load of 11111111!

I can't remember what the word was but in a group chat it kept correcting a word to a random man's name, think Angelo or Julio or something. All at the most ridiculous times.

I went to those 'Pushy Mums' pushchair fitness sessions when my kids were little, and when I put the trainers' number into my phone it came out as 'Pushy Nuns', so that's how those classes were known ever since.

In the old pre smartphone days predictive text was quite random.

My then flat mate fancied this guy who was leading her up the garden path a bit and had intellectual pretensions. They used to text back and forth about literature quite a bit.

One night v late she got a message from him saying: “fancy a dual” and got overexcited thinking it was literary code for something. She texted him back and it dawned on her that “dual” was an autocorrect mid-spelling of “fuck”.

So that was the end of that.

This thread has actually hurt my stomach muscles.

@honeylulu I had the sorry to dirty autocorrect too although not quite as funny as your DH.

Unfortunately once when a fairly staid, older colleague texted me to say that her family member had passed away.

Yep, my condolences read as, "I'm so so dirty. Am thinking of you."

I hope she drew some comfort from it.

My phone keeps changing thanks to 'Rihanna' ; I always catch it, but one of these days someone will be puzzled by my replying 'Rihanna!' at them

Once texted a gardener (work related) to ask if he could strip in the small field so the little goats could see

STRIM. I meant strim.

My friend sent me a text saying she had been given new wanking boots for Christmas by her children as they knew she would get a lot of use out of them on her holiday in North Wales.

okay baby corrected to okay boomer once!!!!
even worse as hubby is 20 years older than me!!!
stupid internet culture

I sent “Hi Quasimodo” instead of “Hi Quasim”

Quasimodo
Omg, that's hilarious.

I applied for a job, The boss sent me a text to come in for an interview the following day. It suddenly hit me that we had not talked about the dress code for the interview and I was wondering what I should be wearing.

I sent a text to my (I was hoping) future boss, asking if I should dress casually tomorrow? and had no reply. Went back to the text later that night and found I had text him "Would you like me to undress casually for you tomorrow?"

I did not get the job, or a reply for that matter, Turned off auto correct that night.

My phone autocorrects the Netherlands to The Netherworld every single time. Despite the fact that it thinks I’m in the Netherlands whenever I use the WiFi at work (e.g. all the cookie notifications are in Dutch). People get very confused when you announce you’re catching the ferry to the Netherworld next week.

I was texting my Nan once saying you can’t and I changed to you cunt 😳

⬆️ there's a whole episode of Seinfeld about the misspelled inscription "beloved aunt".

Family member has ibs and I texted to tell him to stop drinking so much coke as it's bad for it. Autocorrected to "stop drinking so much come". He did not find it as funny as I did.

I'd arranged for a man to come and collect some furniture I'd sold him online. He texted to ask if he could come at a slightly different time, but I hadn't noticed the text for a few hours - so I texted to tell him sorry I'd not read the text before as my phone was in my bag. But somehow the message I sent ended up being "sorry didn't reply sooner, phone was in my vag" 😖. I didn't know where to look when he turned up 😁

Not quite the same, but my dh and I were doing dishes today, and dh asked the nest to play Wagner's Ring Cycle, it replied , "sure , playing 'shes got a ring through her nose' " by some metal band!
Not what he said!

My Mum messaged asking what meat I wanted for Sunday dinner. I text back I love dick. Obviously I meant duck 🦆

Hello Daddy 😂😂😂

I sent my sister a text saying I'd seen her mate in Crouch End. She got a message saying I'd seen her mate in Crotch End.

My eldest son, many years ago now decided it was funny to change the keyboard strikes so when I typed certain things it gave me completely different words instead. Sort of like autocorrect but planned by him.

It drove me potty. He had changed his brothers name to Thunderbonk. And my shopping list items to weird obscure items.

Every time I mentioned his brothers name it changed it. So an email to the school was very embarrassing as the first time I sent without realising the auto change.

He changed it back with me standing over him fuming.

Not quite auto correct but close.
