	   |  Damn You Auto Correct!  
 
			
			Haahhaha not sure if this has been posted yet, but my friend sent me this site, totally made my day. http://damnyouautocorrect.com/ 
it's a site dedicated to the fuck ups in texting with autocorrect, normally with iphones   
you can go through all 120 pages. or click on BEST OF DYAC, those are usually better.   
enjoy!

			I did enjoy reading the failures on that site but as someone who does not own a cellphone by choice, what is going on with this auto-correct function?  Are people simply not taking the time to proofread before they send a text or does it go beyond that.

			I hate the fucking auto correct feature on my iPod. Too lazy to bother turning it off in settings as it's a minor issue, atm.

			Autocorrect learns your words if you type it frequent, so either this dude or chick types pussy alot when smsing or shit's just retarded.
