Autocorrect
 
I'm really unhappy with autocorrect on these smart phones. Do instead of so. Some instead of so. To instead of too. What's your complaint?

I once called my Grandaughter a slut...thanks to auto correct. Actually I love auto correct but have learned to reread before hitting "send". Oh, you can turn autocorrect off.

Oh! That sounds like something I might do. I always try to reread what I've written...but that doesn't work every time. (I've corrected 6 items on this post (just tried to correct "****ed" for post.

Now that's funny... Have to say most of the time I like it but you need to read before you press send.

You mentioned that one other time, and I got a great laugh out of it. I've retold the story a few times when the auto correct subject has come up. It still makes me chuckle.
