I once tried to send a text to a girlfriend that said you are a b****. It came out you are a chubby. Worse. Consequences worse.
There would be some good money in developing an app that added all the swear words to your dictionary (maybe there already is one). I'm on my fourth Droid (#$%@ you, Verizon), and I keep having to go through these growing pains on each one. This ducking socks.
Why would you want to do that, ScriboErgoSum? I don't get it. It's not better. Already had posted this in the PICTURE thread http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=5780347&postcount=3858 . I can't believe how some people can "text" on their iPhones so fast, but they can't press a simple "x" on the autocorrected word to complete their text. Suddenly, it's the iPhone's fault they misspell things, too.
I type them correctly, and it's a pain to have to remember that I need to add that word to my dictionary. I think that would be a brilliant app. Apple wouldn't allow it, and neither would Verizon. But I would have paid a dollar to add all the permutations of the basic swear words so I didn't have to manually pause to add them as they came up in conversations.
lol. dang that conversation is from December 2. Was that person hiding under a rock & just found out about Antoine? That video was so like July 30thish. Judging by the amount of late Bed Intruder threads we had in the hangout, I guess it is still possible to not have seen that video.
I see what you mean. All you would need to do is to send a good friend a bunch of curse words maybe twice or thrice and the phone will remember them as "not misspelled words" in the future. I have spelled my brothers' names and some stuff like last names in Spanish that have stayed as good words on my iPhone. I think I've typed them enough and now it suggests them to me when I type something that sounds alike.
LOL! I'm on my first phone that has a touch screen keyboard, and then whole auto correction crap. (Evo). I've had a few messed up txt's so far...and emails. There is so much GOLD on that site.
