Stupid autocorrects - put the bastards here (1 Viewer)

[MarvinTScamper]

Why in the world autocorrect would take "aloha" and change it to "alpha" but won't correct "necer" into "never" is beyond me.

I have had a few beauties when typing proper names or user names.  Put your best autocorrect foibles in here.

Not exactly autocorrect, but I used the microphone to dictate "Taco fixings are in the fridge"

Got "Contrabassoons are on the bridge"

I didn't even fix it.  Felt like I was in a WWII spy movie.

everytime i type "Kodi" it autocorrects to "Jodi" - and that's a fat girl's name. 

:(

Jodi is of course the name my old friend is divorced from. 

Of course.

Contrabassoons is an awesome auto-correct. I will keep typing until all my base are belong to contrabassoons.

"No way. I'm flattered, but I'm happily married and I really don't need to complicate my life."

Got corrected to:

"Neighbors are nosy, so just park at the CVS on the corner of [redacted] and I'll come pick you up. And if you could wear that little skirt with the polka dots...?"

My sister is an attorney and emailed a client, closing with a comment about the woman's favorite baseball team which she typed as "bosox."

What arrived was "Glad to see your bosom doing so well."

Mrs. O works in the library system and one of her favorites for some of their software is incontinence rather than incompetence.  Good times.

They also rolled out some self checkout material and apparently used google translate for some directions in Spanish (why nobody who speaks Spanish was involved is beyond me).  So essentially something like "make sure you hear the beep or try again" turned into make sure you hear the beep or you will be penetrated"

The biggest one has to be a board glitch

Every time someone types

I support Trump


It autocorrects to

I don't support Trump but...

Mine has just gone insane recently. 

Have changes to haven't. 

The changes to there. 

Stuff like that, and always randomly. Never even catch half of them. 

What drives me crazy is when it corrects based on context instead of spelling. If I type an English word that is spelled correctly, it shouldn't be changed.

You forgot th big one

"I voted for Trump" becomes

"I didn't even vote for the guy, I voted Johnson"

 

[MarvinTScamper]

I just typed in "zyppah" and it autocorrected to "standalone".  Wtf

Apple seems worse for this... GB texting me just now

I think he means lavish. Lardass? Lozenge? Lesbian?

The obligatory "Trump post". Now the thread is complete

Today, in an email to the CEO and COO (talking about a potential franchisee getting funded for his new business startup). I used speech to text. I didn't proofread before sending. 

"Just a reminder - he would #### your financing through a family member."

I said 'procure' and it autocorrected to '#### your'

I meant to tell my wife the kids wanted sloppy joes for dinner. Thanks to autocorrect, I told her they wanted sloppy hoes.

Speech impediments are a #####.

"Contrabassoons are on the bridge"

 Superb episode of Original Star Trek.

You forgot th big one

"I voted for Trump" becomes

"I didn't even vote for the guy, I voted Johnson"

Or "I'm looking forward to Pence."

@strykerpks and @Notorious T.R.E. rapping into their Google voice is really what you want here.

"Pronounced with an umpty" usually gets autocorrected to "Burblegurble unga" It's odd

Depending on their ages and genders, they might want both.
