"Ok, book": Annoying Predictive Text Mistakes
Maybe you have a blackberry or an iPhone so you are no longer concerned with the problems presented by t9 predictive text. But for the rest of us, it can get really annoying when you want to say one thing...and end up sounding like an idiot.
Most Common Mistakes
me = of
if = he
*sh*t* = shiv SHIV??
"I'm so tired I just wolf up."
Wolf? Seriously? Before woke?
Though, I suppose if you ever were in a situation that required you to text the word wolf, it would be best if it would come up first.
I want to say: cool
My phone says: book
Ok, do I EVER want to text the word “book”? Come on.
I want to say: *f**k* (without the asterisks)
My phone says: dual or duck
Really? I have to guess that the f-bomb is one of the most popularly texted words, and you don’t even put it in your t9? What, because some little kid might accidentally say it? Please.
Get an iPhone so this will stop happening to you.

The iPhone Might Not Solve Your Problems...
The iPhone also does predictive text— I’m sure there’s a way to turn it off, but I’m either too dumb or lazy to figure it out.
I want to say: home
My phone says: good
“movies” and “mother” if making certain kinds of jokes or innuendo, you shouldn’t mix them up
go=in=im
I want to say: are
My phone says: see
And vice versa I suppose.

and still they come
I want to say meal, the phone says neck “want to come over to mine on monday for a neck?” great
I say loud, the phone chooses love
any = boy, or cow or box or bow
kiss=lips (cute)
My phone refuses to spell sombrero correctly.
Good thing I only need to spell that maybe once a year?
