Autocorrect was declared hands-down the #1 Most Annoying Thing In Modern Life in the survey of April 2015's Reason Is Out To Lunch Magazine. The amounts of possible reasons given was staggering to anyone with no previous statistical knowledge, but here were four that dominated generally:

  1. Autocorrect is worse than martial arts.
  2. Autocorrect would find a wallet on the ground with $5000 (or local equivalent) and throw it in the trash.
  3. Autocorrect is trying to find new victims for web scams.
  4. Autocorrect creates new parallel universes.

And one which found its way to the bottom of the list:

  1. Autocorrect corrects words by itself.

Some Examples of This Annoyance[edit | edit source]

Snowman-to-snowman: I'm melting my family on the 13th. Sorry - meeting. Autocorrect is a lie.
The result of this comment involved several humans, part of one family, being incinerated early on the 14th morning. The culprit did not give a name, but was fined $15,000 plus GST. You use citric acid!

What To Do About It[edit | edit source]

Turn it off.

Or alternatively just write gibberish and let your phone autocorrect it. Soon you'll have typed out all works of Shakespeare in all 6,000+ languages.

Interestingly, if one was to turn off autocorrect[edit | edit source]

'Yyu kogu, onm the 5ht, my cousuf is getign mareyd. I'm vngoi fi the wejdingj.' As you can see, all that autocorrect seems to actually do is to make your spelling worse. THE MACHINES ARE TAKING OVER!

The Symbol God[edit | edit source]

The symbol god was a cat, and his servants are dogs. Autocorrect is the mouse. To quote a fan of a certain British band, 'Autocorrect can go straight to hell he'll.'
