Sorry didn't realize you had just seeded this and I did as well. I would have sent you a text but God only knows how that auto-correct would have read (well that and I don't actually know your number, lol).

Yes Fark. Although last night after reading those the man came home drunk and I had to let him read these because I literally laughed so hard I was crying. He not only could not read them he was so drunk he couldn't understand that I was saying Fark, he thought I was saying Fart. So he's not the sharpest tool in the shed...

Yeah well between family its a lot funnier, you all know each other and clearly would realize it was a mistake. Having auto-correct send something to someone you only know as a semi-new friend (of the opposite sex) could really, really stir up some controversy. I was so damn thankful that I caught what it said before I hit "send". Would have been way more than just awkward.

Funny.. Thanks, Grey Wolf. ..Auto-correct must be a male algorithm - he seems to be trying to help out the men more than the women. :)

That link should come with a warning.
I was laughing so hard, there were tears streaming down my face!
Thankyou Grey Wolf.
That was the BEST laugh I've had in a long, long time.

Too funny. We have developed our own "inside" language due to screwed up text.

It makes me wonder about the people who programmed these in the first place. Good reason to proof read before hitting "send"
