Today, my mom texted me, asking what I'd like her to get for dinner tonight. I texted back "Something exotic if you're up for it :)". Except I accidentally typed "erotic". I only noticed the typo when I checked after getting no reply. She comes home in a couple of hours. Shit, shit, shit. FML
Collection
College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, trying to be nice, I sent a text to my mother-in-law saying that I couldn't wait to have her delicious casserole tonight. Only after sending, I realized that "casserole" had auto corrected to "asshole". FML
Today, thanks to the unholy power of autocorrect, I told my mother-in-law that "crispy dick" is on the menu tonight. FML
Today, I texted my mom, “Love you!” and immediately followed it with, “Oops wrong chat” except it wasn't the wrong chat. She replied, “???” and now she thinks I only say I love her by accident. FML
Today, I was texting my mom about a surprise visit, and autocorrect changed "surprise" to "surgery." I hit send before noticing, and now she thinks I’m planning some major medical procedure, and has been calling me nonstop to check if I’m OK. FML
Today, I received a text from my mom saying, "We need to talk." I panicked and replied, "What did I do now?" She responded, "I was going to ask what you wanted for dinner, but now I’m curious about what you're hiding." FML
Today, when I was ordering pizza, I got a text from my mom saying "I love you". When the man thanked me I accidentally said, "I love you too." FML
Today, I found out that the messages about the issues in my sex life that I'd been sending to my best friend had been sent to my mother via iMessage. She's coming over for dinner tomorrow. FML
Today, I meant to send a spicy message to my partner, but sent it to my dad due to the Whatsapp conversations being next to each other on my computer screen, and me not paying attention due to being an idiot. My dad replied, “Uh... not sure I needed that mental image.” FML
Today, I started to type up a mass text to tell a decent amount of my friends that I'd just come home to a surprise from my boyfriend. Trying to fix a typo, I accidentally hit send with the text only saying "Guess what?! I just came." FML
Today, my girlfriend had an "accident" at home. She texted me about it. I tried to lightly tease her and sent a comment about her shitting her pants… to the family group chat by mistake. I'm currently writing my last will and testament. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I'd like to know if she has a sense of humour and bought something erotic for you.

Autocorrect is a horrible thing. Your mom obviously knows you don't want something erotic, just tell her you meant exotic. How is this an fml?

hmmmm wonder if she will bring you an Iguana ?

It's not that serious. It's an accident not a dick don't take it so hard.

Bigger question is who were u having "erotic" chats with! It won't autocorrect to erotic unless u recently used it!

That is not true at all, he probably mistyped exotic so bad it was more similar to erotic. Both wors should already be in his word list by default.

So not true. pretty positive very few of us have ever meant to type ducking...

my phone will autocorrect "autocorrect" to "audio crabs" if I mess up enough. Autocorrect doesn't make any sense most times.

That's not always true.

Uhhh send another text correcting yourself? Why would you wait until she comes home?

Exactly! I don't see why this is an fml. If they we texting to begin with he can just text right back what he meant. I don't see what the big deal is.

Thats screwed up in so many ways.. Its hard to get over the awkward moments

oh damn - that makes me laugh so hard. because now even when you correct yourself to exotic, it still sounds bad. It wouldn't have the first time around, but after erotic it just sort of adds to it. Buahahaha

Did she get one of those very anatomic detailed cakes for after a basic dinner?
