I hate spell check!!!

[LeslieDean]

Anyone who has been reading my posts know that I am not a good speller. I sent a text message to one of our elders since I am A/P now to ask him if I could be put on his list for imprompto talks. I was using my iphone to do this while my sister was driving. With the movement of the car, the very tiny keyboard, and my poor spelling ability plus AUTO spellcheck this is what I sent to him "In view of my Auxillary pioneering status I would like to be considered for improper talks. Please remember me if you need a fill in" He sent a message back harassing me and I said "I hate spell-check. I could have just looked stupid. Now I look perverted!" He assured me he knew what happened as soon as he read it for he has had some embrassing sentence structure himself. The poblem with spell check is it will substitue a word spelled correctly but with a entirely different meaning. He said he apprecaited the good laugh.

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is a website dedicated to these blunders... I am not posting it here because about 90% of them are dirty, perverted, and extremely obscene. So to save myself, I turned AUTOCHECK off. If I can't spell it, I just do what my 10 yr old does, sound it out.

This would be perfect for a new topic, what are some of the more embarassing texts/email/messages you have sent others or received...
