    Ever been embarrassed by auto correct?

    All I could do was laugh when rereading an email I sent before thoroughly proof reading.

    Hopefully the recipient knew what happened. For a brief moment I wasn't sure why the version that was sent was worded so strangely different than I intended.
    In my head I was asking myself, "delicatessen"? How the heck did that get in there? It could've been worse.

    Guess I better quit sending any messages when I'm in a hurry.

    I didn't do a proof read & had the whole company in tears and never heard from the prospect again.

    About 10-12 years ago, I was wet behind the ears in manufacturing and was quoting electonics & this gal got our companies info & had some special Cordsets prints (basically the kind of extension cord cable you stick into a wall socket) but required odd stripping dimensions of the outer jacket & applying some specail non-blade type terminals to a 3 cord conductor cable.

    Anyway, to make a long story short, I replied 'to all' that she would need to be more specific about the stripping portion & would love the opportinity to review her corsets.

    still smh...

      I was cursed at by a youth minister because of auto correct....he told me to S H U T my mouth but his phone did something else...all in fun.

      I save a pick of it for blackmail in the future.

        More than twice I have sent a text to the wrong person. Now I double triple check the recipient before hitting send. It can be embarrassing. Especially if it was originally meant for your wife.

          After reading horror stories, I turned off auto correct immediately when I got a phone capable of it.

                    yep…I once invited some buddies to go D*** hunting. I didn't realize it and was very perplexed when their replies came back as "no", "hell no" and "hell no you flaming homo". I swear I meant DUCK hunting. I check much better now.

                      Not an auto-correct problem, but I once sent a nice goodnight text to my girlfriend's older brother... (nothing inappropriate but real sappy)

                              Not so much auto correct. But I accidentally hit the speak button on Siri. I was sitting in the waiting room a the gyno with my wife. She went to the bathroom and I was left alone in the 10x10 waiting room with 6 woman. I was texting my buddy asking about a trip he was taking to Virginia. I type virgina and tried to click on it to auto correct it, but instead I hit the speak button. Sure enough Siri blurted out virgina. It was so embarrassing. I just kept looking down at my screen. I could feel their eyes burning holes in the side of my face but I still couldn't bring my self to look up. Hahaha it was great.
