VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – Do you have a bad case of the manboobs? Mondays! That should be Mondays. News1130 is finding out why the auto-correct feature on the iPhone is so incorrect so often.
Since actions speak louder than wombats, we’re finding out.
It is astounding what the iPhone auto-correct feature thinks you are trying to say. You can find some outrageous examples online.
“Just heading out to get some milf.”
“Neuter you then me.”
“How do you turn this damn auto-erection off?!? I mean erection. F***! I mean correction!”
“Flatulence will get you nowhere.”
“My sunfish asked for nasalsausages all the time.”
There are countless websites and YouTube channels devoted to the overly enthusiastic (and surprisingly racy) auto-correct function.
If you have a good example of a text botched by the auto-correct, email it to us or tweet it to @news1130radio or @llikemoyd.
