To wonder why I have to teach my mobile phone 'bitches'

When texting to check the sex of some dogs coming to a barbecue?

And why 'fuck' isn't on there, but 'wtf' is?

And why 'shiv' is there - which I find is a much more worrying word than 'shit'...

My current (second hand) phone seems to want to predictive text in swedish or norwegian - lots of very odd sounding words, and o's with a diagonal line through - if that makes sense. I am seriously thinking about changing the phone just so that I can predictive text in English!! But I love my current phone (a motorola razr v3) because it is pink.

Speaking of predictive text

SSG Most phones have a language option for predictive text somewhere in the settings so you should be able to change it. I never had a motorola because I found them absolutely impossible to work (even thought the razr is very attractive to look at ) but I'm sure someone on here would know how to work the menus.

....I had a text from a friend's iPhone earlier, it referred to her 'wagging machine'.

Naturally, I assumed this referred to her black labrador, but in fact the iPhone had selected this in preference to 'washing machine'....
