Spelling and Grandma

[whelk]

I once sent an email to many very senior managers and wrote ‘know’ instead of ‘no’.

thankfully the Samaritans talked me round

Anyone normal would just say “dammit, autocorrect” or MLG’s regular go-to when he has made a mistake, “it was a typo”.  Not MLG this time. The guy has historically performed amazing levels of mental gymnastics to not have to admit culpability about the slightest non-event. To be honest though; it’s what makes him, well, him. And causes no end of hilarity. Never change pls.

Shouldn't "Bellend" be hyphenated?

P.s. MLG is correct on this occasion re: 'z' Vs 's' spellings.

Puzzling why typos surprise you! I've made tens of thousands of posts and your selective memory focuses on the rare occasions they happen. Typing quickly on a tiny keyboard will occasionally lead to typos.

That's nothing, I was writing (back in the day) a work letter to a female homeless charity based in Lisbon House, I typed it wrong and it autocorrected it to Lesbian House.

[badgerx16]

My wife's old phone used to auto correct my name to Al Quaeda.

Edited 21 December, 2021 by badgerx16

[Lighthouse]

Two auto-corrects I've sent which weren't well received:

"I love you Abby!" - It was supposed to say 'baby'

"I can't wait to see you Katie." - It was supposed to say 'later'

My girlfriend at the time was not called Abby or Katie, although I had both of those on my Facebook friends list. She was obviously calm, rational and saw the funny side. 🙄
