May 25, 20196 yr I wish death upon the people responsible for this. A pox upon everyone they love. May their children, and their children's children, and on and on for the next 500 generations all be born with incurable dyslexia. Fucking Christ it is amazing to me that they can literally track and record millions upon millions of texts, emails, and posts and STILL think that I want the follow auto corrections: every single time i type the world talk this faggot piece of shit device changes it to "y'all" as shown here: every singke god damn time i type the world "clip" it changes to fucking "clío" whatever the fuck that is. see again right here: every singke goddamn time i type the word "named" it changes it to "mamés". WHY. oh and have we noticed how it DOESNT autocorrect the word "singke" to "single"??? Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with this shit. I even went into my goddamn keyboard and told it to use "talk" T-A-L-K as a shortcut for "talk", and it STILL changes that shit to "y'all"! Fuck everyone responsible for this. It is the bane of my existence. I don't even have a computer. every single loquacious, verbose, interminable post i've ever made on surly has been posted from my iphone. so yeah. this shit is an epic fucking pain in my ass.

May 25, 20196 yr I’m totally with him on this. Every time I type a word ending in ing it changes it to TIM. What the hell!
May 25, 20196 yr Author the stupid thing also habitually "auto corrects" a correctly used present tense word into a past tense word and vice versa. If I try to type, "Matt Coleman scored 16 points", this fucking POS decides that it needs to "auto correct" a correctly spelled/used word for zero goddamn reason. See her for the fifth fucking time: That's the most pathetic aspect of all of this-it's so fucking consistent and predictable that i can rely on it happening as i'm typing these sentences out; it's infuriating. Whoever programmed this shit is either a water head retard or an evil person, and either way i say we throw em in the river. Edited May 25, 20196 yr by Goo Punch
May 25, 20196 yr Popular Post Weird. I text to my wife "I love you" and autocorrect changes it to "why did you ruin my life?"
May 25, 20196 yr Amorello. I did not even know this was a word... Now, I have 'auto-correct' turned off because it makes me ragey as hell, but the voice text is just as bad. It also claims that the phone will somewhat 'learn' your dialect. There are words unique to my industry that i use every day and I still have to go back and correct them. My kids laugh at my disdain for this bullshit. I am not scared of technology. I leverage it in many ways and it has improved the quality of my job many times over. However, I am not impressed with bells & whistles that repeatedly fuck up and clutter your processes with having to go do the same corrections and fixes. If you're gonna put some Ferrari shit on my phone/ IPAD, it had better work, motherfuckers. That's all I ask. Edited May 25, 20196 yr by slorch

May 25, 20196 yr Can you really not turn autocorrect off on an iPhone? Also, why didn't you buy an Android like a man?

May 25, 20196 yr Lulz at those who didn't pay attention in school and now can't turn off autocorrect, the idiots' insulin. 4 hours ago, Goo Punch said: the stupid thing also habitually "auto corrects" a correctly used present tense word into a past tense word and vice versa. Did it fail to autocorrect "auto corrects"? Or were you talking about body shops or collision avoidance systems? Edited May 25, 20196 yr by clapclapclap Rosebud

May 26, 20196 yr This is my personal favorite suggestion from my iPhone.It think I live a much much more interesting life than I really do.And I wish I could just pick a bag of that up at the Texaco lol.

Try using GBoard. Glide typing works great once you get used to it. https://support.google.com/gboard/answer/6380730?co=GENIE.Platform%3DiOS&hl=en
May 27, 20196 yr Cant you goofballs get Switfkey? It has the best adaptive autocorrect I've ever used.

May 27, 20196 yr The episode of Star Trek The Next Generation that was written entirely by predictive text was quite brilliant. Why would I turn that off? Edited May 27, 20196 yr by HornsOverIthaca

May 31, 20196 yr Apple sucks. Take it to one of their genius and they will sell you a newer phone that doesn't work either. Oneplus 6t here, works great. Google keyboard instead of stock, but you can use any keyboard you want.
June 4, 20196 yr fir instead of for. Because for is used way less instead of fir in everyday dialogue. Fucking idiots
June 4, 20196 yr Fuck to duck. All the time. I never want to say duck. I always want to say fuck. Always.
June 4, 20196 yr I can't wait for you to type out "single clip named talk" in a regular conversation. Hilarity will ensue!
