Predictive Text Could've Killed My Dad

Aug 03, 2010 18:14

I may be exaggerating.

A little.

Or, a lot.

Anyway, July was a heinous and ridculous month for many, many reasons (dumped via email: check; favorite boss I've ever worked for giving notice of resignation: check; second favorite boss also resigning: check; favorite shoes broken: check)...

Slashing of the tires: check.

So, I'm driving to work and noticing the car pulling slightly to the left...

Then the noise started...

Then the bad noise started and I steered into a parking lot.

A lovely fellow stopped to help(thank you, Universe, for doing SOMETHING redeeming -- until this guy turns out to be a serial killer that comes and tries to filet me later) - and though I can change a tire on my own, I accepted assistance as my dress wasn't my best "getting greasy and yucky" outfit.

Aaaaaanyway, I sent a venting text message to my father. It read, "Tire slashed in front of house."

*send*

Eventually realized that predictive text had changed my message.

"Tits slashed in front of house."

Whoops. Sorry for any unnecessary concern I may have caused you, Dad.

....and, I guess July could've been worse. I'd much rather have slashed tires than slashed tits.
