Today, I was talking to an attractive guy, but I was so nervous that I got tongue-tied and then blurted out, "Stupid autocorrect." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I realized that I accidentally said my phone number wrong when I was giving it to a really smart, cute guy with all the same interests as me that I met at a bar last night. I'd had a few drinks and had gotten the middle three digits mixed up. FML
Today, I was giving a presentation at work, when I said, "But we could care less about that." My boss asked if I meant, "Couldn't care less." Wanting to avoid embarrassment, I tried to think up an excuse, only to end up blurting that it was my phone's auto-correct. FML
Today, I texted my girlfriend that I'm going to 'lick my professor's ass' instead of 'kick' due to auto-correction on my phone. FML
Today, I was on vacation, when a very cute guy starting talking to me and asked me what my name was. Overwhelmed and stressed out, I blurted out that I didn't have one. FML
Today, while messaging a possible new hire to set up an interview at my retail job, I meant to say, "Thank you for being flexible" - in regards to scheduling. Instead, it autocorrected to, "Thank you for being delicious." FML
Today, I had a brain fart moment while asking out a cute guy. I meant to say, "When are you going to let me take you out for coffee?” but what actually came out of my mouth was, “When are you going to let me do you?” He turned bright red and I ran away, and I’m too scared to go back. FML
Today, I said to a girl that I recently started dating, ‘I like you so far’. My phone had other plans and decide to autocorrect far to fat as I hit send. FML.
Today, my boyfriend and I were finally alone and things were starting to get intimate. I was on top of him trying to be sexy, when in my excitement I giggled and called him a "silly girl" by accident. FML
Today, I texted my boss, "I'm looking forward to doing you" instead of, "I'm looking forward to seeing you" thanks to a very unfortunate combination of my atrocious typing skills on a smartphone and an overzealous autocorrect function. FML
Today, while thinking about something cringe I did, I accidentally said, "Oh fuck!" aloud during someone's speech. The room besides me and the speaker was otherwise quiet. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If there only was autocorrect for some conversations.

That's okay, OP. Sometimes when I try to type: Peter Piper Picked a Patcipicklpeprs I get tongue tied too. Were starting to confuse technology with reality. Just last week I accidentally said "lol" instead of actually laughing. Safe to say I was ashamed.

"tongue-tied"? I love iphonated words..
Pleonasm 36
iphonated? Did you mean hyphenated? I mean, it's not as if hypens are some sort of app for the iphone or anything...

Cut him some slack, he was just finger-twisted.

Hey, maybe he thought it was funny. He could have a great sense of humor!

Personally, I like it when girls get nervous and tongue-tied around me. It shows that they are excited to be in my presence, which, in turn, excites me ;)

Some brains have autocorrect. We call it 'common sense'.

Sometimes it's just damn-I-didn't-get-enough-sleep mode. That's when the 'autocorrect' goes wrong.

Tell him you had an iPhone surgically inserted into your head 2 years ago.

If he likes you he will think it as "cute".
