That's not what I meant...

My phone seems to think it knows what I’m trying to say better than me.  It has an auto-correct feature which is usually pretty handy.  But I have to keep a close eye on it because there have been some interesting substitutions.
I recently started to collect some of the faulty corrections because they make me laugh.  I haven’t collected many (mostly because I forget to write them down) but I’d like to share a few:
·         Cardio = catsup.  This was a text conversation about trading cardio [catsup??] for pull-up training.  Would YOU like that trade??
·         Pull-ups = polyps.  Ummm, yikes.
·         Awww = sweet.  There are times that could work but in this case I was trying to say “Awww, things aren’t going well?”  Good thing I caught it before I accidentally sent “Sweet, things aren’t going well?”
·         Grrr = ferret.  Hmm, maybe I should just stick with that one.
What's next??
