The auto-complete function on my iPhone is making me crazy. I keep sending inappropriate e-mails to friends, the dog walker and now a big-wig at my company… My greatest hits include:
Boiling customer issue:
What I meant to say: This is going to get ugly, I feel it in my bones
Auto-complete: This is going to get ugly, I feel it in my boner
Discussing an author with friend:
What I meant to say: I bought a couple of her books on Amazon, It was just too good a deal to pass up.
Auto-complete: I bought a couple of her boobs on Amazon, It was just too good a deal to pass up.
My ex asking me what my son can buy me for Christmas:
What I meant to say: Hmmm… Smart wool socks?
Auto-complete: Hmmm… Smart wool dicks?
The latest incident was sent to a director concerning a document package:
What I meant to say: I put it in your office.
Auto-complete: I put tit in young office.
His Reply: Thanks buddy!
My reply: Not an issue. Oh damn…
Since this “feature” is making me seem even more inappropriate than usual, I hopped onto in inter-webs to figure out how to turn it off. I ran smack into a site listing MANY more examples of auto-evilness. Thought I would share.

This happens to me ALL the time! I have tipsy-texted friends, co-workers, family such weird stuff in the last couple of years. My personal fav was when “great” became “Goat” as in the food at Aguste tastes Goat…
Thanks for the link!
