Keeps changing correctly spelled words to not even close correctly spelled words.

I dropped the letter off turned to I dropped the key off.
Kept trying to type Boars Head and it changed to Boars Dead no less than 5 times.
I then typed she was not amused and that became she was not a queer.

Not sure what is going on with autocorrect today.

And just now I typed autocoroct and there were no replacements found.

One of the guys at work caught me away from my desk (having not locked my PC before I left) and set up autocorrect in outlook to automatically change a coworker's name from "Steve" to "Lord of Darkness."

I had a heck of a time getting an email out properly!

About two minutes later, the prankster called me to help sort it out.

All in good fun.... Big Grin




God bless America.

To quote JAllen, "autocorrect is my worst enema"

If you Google it, you'll find a way to reset your autocorrect.

“Yobo” is a term if endearment in the Korean language. It’s direct translation is “honey”, but you would never say this to a girlfriend or boyfriend. Only a husband or wife. No exceptions to that rule.

On an iPhone, you can change words to say other words. It’s called keyboard shortcuts. I changed “Yobo” to “asshole” and “love” to “hate” on my wife’s phone.

She was horrified after reading a few messages and me asking why she hates me so much.

I know. I’m going to hell. Maybe your wife pranked you?

Settings
General
Keyboard
Auto correction

Flip the switch so it is grayed out and off. Shortly after doing so, you’ll realize how useful it really is.

Are we talking iPhones? I don’t know how this shit works but I’m convinced there has been a bad update. I just wrote “shit” and it auto corrected to shot. Seems like it all happened at once a few months back. Perhaps it’s illiterate millennial programmers Big Grin
