    Thanks autocorrect

    Whats the most embarrasing text you've sent thanks to auto-correct or a similar feature? This morning I was going to be a few minutes late for work so I texted my boss( who's a 50+ year old woman):

    "Running late had a porn explosion in my dryer this morning"......
    The only bigger turnoff than finding out a woman smokes, is finding out she's a Husker fan.

    Re: Thanks autocorrect

    I'm guessing that "dryer" was the word corrected...

    haha! Yikes that is an unfortunate one. I have generally caught mine and consequently they aren't memorable cause no one else saw them. That feature is a pain more often then not though I think.
    Nothing to see here mods. Keep moving.

    Haha, she was a good sport about it. I really hate the feature, especially combined with swype.

    I'm having trouble figuring out what that even should have said.

    It should have read "Running late had a pen explosion in my dryer this morning"

    Never send a dirty text on accident to your girlfriend's sister, who also, unfortunately, was my roommate.

    How badly did you mangle the spelling of "pen" for it to come out "porn?"

    "porn" should never be a possible autocorrect option. That's not going to do anything good for anyone.

    C'mon Computer Programmers!!!
