what we have here is a failure to communicate

I know, I know. I should have a cell phone with a real keyboard so I shouldn't complain about this. But I don't. I have a phone where each number can be a few letters. I have the auto-guess feature on so it tries to guess what I'm typing without me scrolling through the letter. It's always frustratingly giving me "me" when I want "of" or "go" when I want "in" (I like prepositions apparently). But today, it assumed I wanted GUPPY instead of HURRY. Really, program? You think I will use the word "guppy" more often than "hurry?" Really?

Also, when trying to write "September," I punched in 7378 ("restaurant," phone guesses, which isn't awful, but not what I'm after), and scroll to "sept." Which the phone suggests to autocomplete with "sept11." SERIOUSLY, phone? What the whatting what.
