Today, I texted my Dad to tell him I'm staying at my boyfriend's house and won't be home. Since I had predictive text on, my phone didn't quite get the word 'home' - the message I sent said, 'I'm staying at Will's, I'll not be good tonight.' FML

Another example of why I don't use predictive text, lol. Hopefully you're dad will get a laugh out of it.

It's not like he isn't going to know what you mean by "staying at my boyfriend's house tonight". What is he supposed to think you'll be doing? NOT *******?

I know... Predictive text is used as an excuse for stupidity way too often.

With my phone, there is a button I press that shows me the words that it could use one at a time. But thats just me. This is why I use a keyboard now. I type it twice as fast.

That's why you keep it short and simple. I sent this to my friend "Was at food court. on way back." and he understood it perfectly. Also I was texting with one hand and holding my soda in the other but hey it worked!

HAhaha I did a similar thing, but it was when I was texting my boyfriend. I was going to text "Last night my mom was wondering if you could bring it today" but whe I reached "Wondering", predictive text changed it to "wonderful". My *send* button is RIGHT next to the delete button... My boyfriend got a message saying "Last night my mom was wonderful"
