This is so not fake. I was emailing in my two week notice to my boss from my phone and the last line I typed was “I hope thongs go well for you and Rick.” My phone corrected things to be thongs and it does every times since, I just make sure to check it when I type things.
The funny thing about it is that it usually only autocorrects to words you’ve recently used. So all of these people who are typing things that are correcting to “jizz” or “manboobs’ means they’ve actually typed it, as those aren’t real words.
Kinda bet the same thing happened with you and “thong”… haha.
No.autocorrect doesnt just use recent words. The thong thing happens to me all the time and I’ve never had a “thong” conversation. That was a dumb thing to say. I don’t know about you but conversations about jizz exploding all over the place don’t happen esp when talking to your mother. Idiot.
1) Crystal, you’re right, autocorrect doesn’t always use past words the used has typed.
2) Past usage from Autocorrect’s memory could be from a simply repeated typo. How many times have we typed “tge” instead of “the” ? in this case “things” can easily be “thongs” because the “O” is next to the “i”.
3) Jon, if they have used the word before does that mean it’s been used in the same dramatic context we see here? Someone could have just simply quoting someone that happen to have any of these FAIL words listed.
Hope the can give this covo some middle ground.
Cheers.

I’ve definitely had words come up with auto-correct that I’ve never used in any context anywhere. I had a couple of near misses that I’m glad I didn’t send but kind of wish I’d done a screen save on.
Middle ground indeed. The “covo” will be even more interesting. I am in sales and I can’t tell you how many times I have ALMOST sent “discunt” in an e-mail when making quotations. It’s only a matter of time.
I think that it thunk that you were talking about flip-flops. Either that, or your phone had a “thong” conversation on its own, without telling you.
DUDE i talk about jizz exploding all the time!!! to whoever lol and i dont text my mum!!! i go and see her!!! hahahahah
That makes this EXTRA hilarious
This is so great; I almost got cramps from laughing.
The poor guy who came out of the „closet“and they guy with the pork, man is that funny or what
Please give us more of this!!!
Lmaoooo the mom fainted
My friend thought he text his girlfriend ‘do you want to get food in the Crown?’ (the Crown being their local pub.) it came out on the phone as ‘Do you want to get done in the brown?’
Needless to say a high pitched angry phone call came right his way. Although at least he didn’t send it to his mom
OMG!!!!!! Seriously ROFLMAO!!! Literally! Laughed so hard I was crying and I couldnt breathe…. Wow. Thank u so much everyone needs to laugh like I just did. I am totally sharing ur sire. Thank you!!!! =)
sharing your sire?
unhuh…..i bet you are
Are you getting autocorreted while posting on DYAC?
honestly, i think he’s just an idiot.
She, not he you idiot
wow. that was so funny i’m crying.
This is so funny!
I don’t have an iPhone but my Verizon text predictive feature offered beefbut when I was going for “affection” … I don’t even know why beefbut is in the vocabulary list …. weird.
Oh my GOD! I am LMAO (beefbut)…WTF?!
I once typed a letter to some colleagues, and as a closer, it should have read:
Regards,
Michele
BUT instead read:
Retards,
Michele
Yeah, that didn’t go over well.
That has happened to me only my email signature is Best Regards. I almost died laughing when I caught it about to go out with:
Best Retards,
Luckily I caught it. LOL
LMAO i did the SAME thing when i was writing a paper to my boss, i was trying to say something along the lines of thanks
regrads
Rae
and it came out retards
damn it see i meant regards and it comes out regrads… got love iphone
There are some “unreal words” in certain dictionaries to use as evidence of copyright infringement in case of wholesale copying of dictionary files, maybe you randomly found one.
Bad day to run out of kleenex! I couldn’t stop crying i was laughing so hard!
Here’s mine:
I typed “hostess with the mostest” about a coworker in an email to work friends. It autocorrected to “hostess with the moistest:!!
Awkward!
OMG. I think this is actually the best one.
way to funny…nothing like a good belly laugh before bed
I dont think all these flubs are random do you?
LMFAO!!!!!!!!! This is the greatest website ever invented.. I hate AutoCorrect!
you do have a fat ass
I haven’t laughed that hard in forever! So funny. Totally loved it. Poor “not-gay” guy. and the eating out your mother. ROTFL. Thanks for sharing!!!
OMG! All these comments plus the 15 above have given me a belly ache from laughing soo hard!!!
And I must add, I needed that… Thank you so much! 
I am going on a business trip to Cork, Ireland. The damn autocorrect has changed it to “Cock” almost every time.
“We are going to have a great time in Cock…”
[talking about rain]“Is it wet in Cock?”
“Do you have family in Cock?”
“How long does it take to get to Cock?”
…but I’m no the only one this has happened to. Thank god.
You definitely need to put a warning message at the top of this. My wife and I literally almost passed out because we were laughing so hard.
Just the funniest link I’ve seen in long time. I have read & reread & still find all texts hillarious, literally crying with laughter. I so want to read more of these.
Laughet till I cried… Literally
Holy sh*# ! This was so funny I laughed, cried, snorted, rolled on the floor, cramped, peed and couldn’t breathe all at the same time!
OMG your post just left me on the floor. Right! Absolutely! LOL
LOL ROFLMFAO
Nuffield said
OMFG LOL I JUST GOT AUTOCORRECTED ON DAMNYOUAUTOCORRECT!!!!!!!
Nuffield was meant to be nuff’
Jesus I can’t stop laughing!!!!!!!!!!
LOL That is so funny! I was thinking what is Nuffield? LOL
OMG–I showed my bestie, Vanessa, this and she laughed like the proverbial drain, just like I did. She adores the “Stain Remover” autocorrect–but, I must admit, “The real issue is–you think I’m gay?”
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
PURE GOLD!!
Doesnt happen in a letter, on engraved fine paper !
I was laughing so hard during the one about the gum.
“Ew. I don’t think I want that”
….I had tears coming out of my eyes. Hilarious stuff! Keep ‘em coming.
Too funny!! I once was texting the word orgasm and it autocorrected to “happy”!!
iPhones are so smart
I was rolling on the floor laughing.. I wish it had been the top 100.. I didn’t want it to end..I hate auto correct, it never lets me write what I want..LOL.. Please give us MORE!!
I was heading out to Buffalo to visit my daughter and texted (or so I thought) ‘just leaving Utica’. I looked at it a second later (after it had gone) and it said ‘just leaving urinal’.
I quickly corrected that and assured her that her mother was not hanging around in urinals!
So basically IPhone sucks… and this is a huge ‘advertisment’ for it.
I’m going to have to agree with you on that. I’m a Samsung lover. However it is great to see all of these HILARIOUS text messages. I love it!!!!!
I e-mailed a client. Instead of saying that I’d be glad to schedule angry initial session, autocorrect said I’d be glad to schedule angry session.
YOU CAN JUST TURN THE AUTO CORRECT OFF IN THE SETTINGS OF THE MESSAGES!
Debbie Downer!!
Retard
hahhah i waas writing to my manager asking her if she was busy, but i accidentally put “are you busty? ” \LMFAO she replies..”i use to be” she recently had a breast reduction we were both in tears laughing
That is freakin’ hilarious! Even funnier because your boss was busty.
GOD DONUT!!! OMG!! I am hysterical with laughter, ohhh my tummy hurts – best set ever! LOL!
Too, too funny. This is a perfect way to start my day. That damn IPhone does like to embarrass us! Never send a text message to your boss without triple checking what you just typed. Wrong message, bad thing for the career!
OMG! This is SO FRIGGIN’ funny. I saw this at lunch today and I laugh so hard I was crying and I fell off my stool. I have been laughing just thinking about it all afternoon. Now 4 hours later, I had had to read again, and it’s even funnier the second time. I can’t stop laughing and crying. Priceless. Thank you!!!!
OMG…fricken hilarious! The comments are almost as funny as the texts.
Sooo freaking funny I laughed till I cried! Great ab workout!
i wanted to love this like everybody else but i couldn’t. perhaps because all examples are far from plausible. no matter how sloppily you try to type PORK i’ll never auto-correct as pussy. and if you’re that sloppy as a typer, then all other words in the sentence would be f&*cked up too.
Didn’t find these funny at all…
What? No “poofarts”?
Stupid Apple fanboys. Can’t you just TURN OFF auto-correct???
We can’t have a good laugh sir? I apologize, guys please don’t laugh at any of these or else this dude’s gonna get mad!
This isnt an iPhone….this thud b ‘iFuck’..:P
I just about died at the auto cucumber. That’s the best one!
I might hzave just peed my pants that was so funny
Actually, my all time favorite one is not even up here! It’s the one where the kids are getting a ‘lump of colon’ for Xmas! Gawd, I reposted the hell out of that one! I cry every time I read this site. It’s the funniest site ever invented…period. <3
I’ve also had autocorrect happen to me. My young daughter was at a friends house for the weekend and I usually text or call to check on her but I was sick one day and didn’t get a chance to call so the next day I sent her a message to say sorry I didn’t call yesterday I got sick and slept all day but the message autocorrected and said I got dick and slept all day!! Very embarrassing :/
Thank you SO much! You guys all just made my day!
Comedy gold. There is NEVER a wrong time to laugh until your nose runs. It’s good for you. Don’t hate!
Hilarious, somebody must have got some read ears, hope they managed to establish a reasonable relationship after these serious Auto corrects
hahah i was reading on one of the other websites and someones read
friend:”what are you doing?”
friend#2: “putting Jesus into my mouth”
friend#2:”putting cheezits into my mouth. lol stupid autocorrect”
friend:” lol sounds tasty lol lol lol”
i laughed so hard i cried omg lol
Haha, this is great. One of my good friends had been in an accident and was without a car for about a week. She sent a text to her dad one afternoon asking him to borrow his car. It read “Can I borrow your cock?” The poor thing didn’t even know what had happened until her dad replied “I think this was meant for Brent.” Brent is her husband. It was too funny. We still laugh at her for it. She is notorious for the most random texts. Just 2 days ago I texted her to see what she was up to and her was “I’m fu**ing pumpkins with the kids”… it was supposed to say “I’m picking pumpkins with the kids.” Smh. She too has a droid and hates her auto-correct. Lmao.
There is an option when you can check the list of the autocorrect and change the priorities.
Oh how I laughed still. I’ve read them half a dozen times and still I laugh like a lunatic. I think the exploded cock/coke or dumping/jumping are the funniest.
I am the owner of a pc repair company and after i showed this to my staff we had to much downtime laughing our heads off, (dont worry they wont get in trouble) lol
I decided to do a poll with my staff to which 1 they liked best.
And the no 1 contender is #8
