Damn you, autocorrect!
A year or two back during a phone conversation with my mother, she said she had to hang up and pick up some prescription eyedrops. We weren't finished with whatever we were discussing, so she was going to call me back after the transaction was complete. It took longer than I thought it would, so I sent her a text message. What I wanted it to say was: how long does it take to get eyedrops?
Autocorrect does not recognize eyedrops as a word unless you've used it before, so it chose a word it understood. I caught the mistake before I hit send, but I nearly asked my mother: how long does it take to get erectile?
Autocorrect. Half hilarious and half horrifying. I hadn't really committed a great autocorrect error until this evening. I usually manage to correct the mistaken correction before I send something stupid. Until tonight.
He called to tell me he had no interest in seeing the tingling brothers. I concur.
