Isn't it ironic? (Or when predictive text should fuck off)

[swarfmonkey]

My friend's mobile phone doesn't have the word "Ironic" in the predictive text. I'm sure Alanis Morissette wouldn't see the irony in this.

Furthermore when I try to type the word "Hallucinogen" my 'phone suggests "Gallvagoogen". Fuck Off!

[aaaaaaaaaargh!]

Typing the word "scots" into my phone yields a mildly amusing result.

[Make me smile]

'Smirnoff' comes out as 'poisoned'. So there you go.

[thewomb]

'Kiss' is to 'Lips' as 'Cock' is to 'Anal'.

[The Boston Crab]

Good, I was about to post the same thing thewomb. See also 'shot' for 'pint'.

[Suttonpubcrawl]

If you type in "Newham", it comes up with "Mexico".

Then followed by riot. If that isn't subliminal messaging I don't know what is.

The technical term is, of course, 'textonyms'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textonym#Textonyms

[Neville Chamberlain]

If I type in Yeovil, it comes up with Paradise!

[swarfmonkey]

If that doesn't prove my point........

tongue starts out as vomit.

I foot want to in to work today.

I fucking hate predictive text.

[trotsky assortment]

My girlfriend's phone seems to choose 'ho' before 'in'.

I ask you, unless you've all become comic book pirates, when was the last time you used the word ho?

[Al Tha Funkee Homosapien]

When I was insulting some loose women using jive talk.

Where I live comes up as Frogidea. I've never had a frogidea. Well, a really good one anyway.

[Claude the Racecar Driving Rockstar Super Sleuth]

That just sounds frog stupid to me.

[gazzyk1ns]

I foot ...

I fucking hate predictive text.

Related to that, I always wonder why 'dont' is in the predictive text dictionaries, because it isn't a word.

[boki]

The one that always catches me out is that my phone prefers 'me' to 'of' - I like to think of it as social commentary.

[Make me smile]

'Smirnoff' comes out as 'poisoned'. So there you go.

A particularly ironic textonym is 76476633 which is the code for Smirnoff, an alcoholic beverage which shows up as 'Poisoned'.

My example was considered 'particularly ironic' by wikipedia, so stick that up your arses!

Mine says punts when I do that?  Do you get something different?

[Lady Beaner]

Ah, thought of another one that used to make me giggle.

Bollocks = collob... and then I would laugh at that point. I started shouting 'collobs' instead of bollocks for a while.

Well, it amused me anyway.

Hi.  I'm on the cup.  I'm sacred it will be a while before I'm good.

[Clone Army]

Ahh yes, I was stuck in a long Steve before getting on the cup today.

Sorry about that.  I'd dropped my wallet.
