Today, my phone autocorrected "with chills" to "with child" in the middle of a message, and I didn't notice until I was contacted several hours later by a panicking friend. My gastric flu is now rumoured to have been morning sickness, all because I can't proofread. FML

Autocorrect is like a parking spot on the street. It's not exactly there when you need it, but it's there too much when you don't. Then again, there may not be enough parking spots where I live...

I get so sick of autocorrect sometimes but then I try turning it off and realize the pros outweigh the cons of it every time. Ain't nobody got time for typing every single letter out correctly on this tiny keyboard

Well, I do and I admit that at the beginning it's terrible but you get used to live without it

I just want slide-out qwerty keyboards back. That was the superior typing method.

my phone has slide out keyboard and no auto correct :D

Clearly, 'ain't' nobody got time for grammar neither. But more than enough for double negatives.

My autocorrect likes to put me in awkward situations as well! I once sent my friend's mom a message saying 'I need six' however, autocorrect changed it to ' I need sex'... I explained the mistake to her and apologised profusely when I saw her. Luckily she understood and laughed it off. I'm sorry, OP!

I love it. damnyouautocorrect.com and autocorrectfail are hilarious and great entertainment. I appreciate the mistakes and laughs. (even when I lol so hard I pee myself! Well, almost that much...LMAO)

I completely forgot about damnyouautocorrect! Well I know how I'm spending the rest of my night...

This one time I was texting my mom about going to a bar and I thought I had said "no, I'm having a chill moment" but I was using that swype thing on my phone and I accidentally said "no, I'm having a child mommy." she flipped her shit

I once have a customer who said "iPhone sex" which he was trying to say iPhone 6. Poor guy.

They're multiplying. And I'm losing control.

I guess you've gotten to know this illness in a family way. I mean familiar way...
