When Spellcheck Lets You Down...

Discussion in 'Ducati General Discussion' started by Noods, Oct 23, 2016.

  1. Have you experienced the embarrassment when spellcheck or an incorrect text word has let you down badly..

    Mrs N couldn't be bothered to find her reading glasses the other week.. She sent a text to our Son who now lives in Whinchester, he was trying to impress his newish Girl friend by cooking her duck for dinner.. Mrs N sent him a text saying... " I hope you enjoy your dick tonight!"

    He replied.. " I beg your pardon "

    Mrs N's Mother had not had a mobile long and she's one of these who speaks in text speak, getting down with the kids so to speak...
    Anyway, she heard that a distant friend had just lost her Mum..
    So she sent her a text to pass on her sympathy which ended by saying... " and once again I'm so sorry that I won't be able to be with you all at the funeral lol"
    Ok It wasn't spellchecks fault but she thought lol stood for Lots of Love.. She later said to her Grandaughter how she was surprised how her friend had never replied back to her.. When she was told why this was likely to have been, she was mortified..

    Lol..

  3. A mate who's into hill walking discovered lidl were selling walking trousers and proceeded to text his work mates to tell about lidl's great wanking trousers.

  7. Sorry Bradders but we don't buy from high street shops anymore, basically thanks to tossers like me probably, most of the shops in our area have long since gone, the town is more like a getto or no go area now..

    Thankfully Most people deduced from my original PSP post that I was admitting that I had f****d up and therefore saw the funny side of it.. Obv, not, everyone though, but each to their own hey! and no, I'm sure I wouldn't have been given a replacement via the Internet either.. So yes lucky old, me....
