Don’t worry, mom!
Submitted by Meredith
According to Meredith, “I went thru a dead zone & got DISCONNECTED from my mom. Pulled over to text her that I was ok bc she always worries that I got in an accident whenever we get disconnected. Pressed my mom’s old cell number & texted all this to some poor stranger who now thinks her/his number was my ‘boobs’ old number. Geezus, I don’t think it’s possible to explain this one”

Still not clear what “neuter devotion” was.
I’m guessing “survived” from the following text. And this whole auto correct is one giant gold mine of instant classics
That makes it “I’ll call you when I have survived”? I still don’t get it
I wish I get alliterated sometime.
Probably something about a better connection…
“Better connection,” possibly.
“Neuter devotion” = “better reception”
Have a look at your keyboard and notice how close the keys are for devotion and reception. lol
She’s joining the Heaven’s Gate cult.
I’m guessing better reception
probably trying to type better reception. that would make sense
I think it was supposed to say “better connection” but Bob Barker would be happy.
I get it!
‘Covergage’?
*coverage!! Lol! Need to learn to read rest of comments before putting in mine!! ‘Better reception’ makes much more sense:)
Hehehe
The wrong number texts I get are never this interesting.
Neuter devotion? o_O
Lol I’ve only got one really funny one. I’ll post it some day when I get off my butt since I need to edit out where the person gave me their full name… and reminded me of the passionate nights we apparently spent together XD
Wow this might be the most complicated autocorrect EVER!!!
I’m assuming neuter devotion was to be better connection, funny
Better reception.
I hate when my boobs get a new number: it’s even worse when they each insist on getting their own. I never remember one, let alone two.
You should probably work on your mammary.
brilliant.
bows
This.
You sir are AWESOME
What they said.
Short term mammary? Or long term mammary? There’s a bog difference.
I just fucking fell out of my chair! Lol. Rich you are so rich with humour.
OMG! I laughed at this even more than the original post. Now I’m having fits, HAVINGFITZ.
LMAO!!
Unlike the stranger who got these messages, her Mom would have known from the beginning that everything was okay. Mom would understand that any lowlife who stole Meredith’s phone would be able to text better than this.
Unless you’re using BluTooth, why are you texting/talking on the phone while driving?
No wonder she worries you’ve been in an accident when you get disconnected, it’s people like you who ccause them!
Well, she did say she pulled over to text…
And she might have had some sort of hands-free device to use for talking on her phone while driving, for all you know.
Can’t really a judge a person, saying they cause accidents, if you don’t know all the info.
BluTooth and talking on the phone regular are just as bad. Both of them mean you’re paying attention to your conversation and not what’s around you. If you have a problem with one, then the other shouldn’t be acceptable. People like YOU cause accidents, because you think that BluTooth is any better.
So… if BluTooth is bad, should I just not carry on conversations with the people that are in the car with me too? It’s basically the same concept.
Or listen to the radio for that matter
Thank you!
You should avoid the problem by not ever driving with other people in your car. Or pets, either, they can distract you too. And you should also remove your radio entirely, just to be on the safe side. And make sure your windows are rolled up, because sounds from outside can be distracting. Actually, you should wear ear plugs to be fully protected from distraction. And maybe those eye-things people put on horses that pull carriages, so you don’t get distracted by scenery.
Nay.
I’m sorry that’s the most stupid thing I have ever heard. So you’re telling me that if there are passengers in your car you have to sit there in total silence because according to you paying attention to a conversation while driving causes accidents? If there’ s no difference between a hand held device and a blue tooth device…then by your stupid logic there isn’t a difference if there’s a person sitting next to you. So unless you always drive in your car alone or don’t ever allow your passengers to speak and do the same for any driver you are a passenger of….please do me a favor and STFU about people using a blue tooth device to talk on a phone and drive.
So, you’re saying that you NEVER speak in your car when you’re driving…no singing to the radio when you’re driving by yourself, no yelling at the jerk that cut you off in traffic, not to the passengers in your car? Not a WORD??
And for your information, Blutooth is completely legal to use, and I’m sorry, I find drinking a coffee/soda/water etc more distracting while driving that talking.
actually, you’re all wrong. They are considering outlawing talking on the phone in the car at a federal level, even hands-free, because the issue isn’t using your hands, it’s the divided attention. Studies have shown that it IS different than talking to people who are in the car with you, because the people in the car with you can see when there are times to pause in the conversation due to traffic etc, whereas the person on the phone cannot, and continues talking even when you need a moment. BTW I don’t really give a rats behind about any of this, but at least know what you are talking about.
^ This
Sockpuppet is correct, from what I’ve read. And from what I’ve experienced. I get more distracted talking on the phone (via hands-free, of course) vs talking to someone in the car with me.
I wonder why that is? Has anyone seen a study identifying the reason?
I think it’s because you’re ALWAYS distracted whilst talking on the phone, no matter what else you’re doing. You have no visual cues so you focus more on the audio cues you do have.
Agreed (with you and Jenni and Someone New, who don’t have reply buttons). The phone is very distracting, whether you’re holding it or not. It’s like part of your attention is off wherever your phone buddy is, so it’s not all available for watching the road.
wow she must have big boobs for them to need their own phone number!!
Submitter put the phone down and drive that way you won’t drop mom and have to call her in such a hurry. I’m so sick of people driving down the road with cell phone in ear not paying attention.
And she still didn’t notice anything about the “neuter devotion”. LOL.
Why can’t something be funny without ppl jumping on the bandwagon to lecture a total stranger…here’s an original idea, Mind your own bidness …
Amen, CattyCat!
It seems to happen on every post now: Someone attacks someone else and a huge fight starts. Ridiculous. This is supposed to be a site to have a laugh at.
I enjoy laughing at the flame wars, personally. Then again, I often assume that people are being sarcastic (and not seriously attacking others), and that the sarcasm just doesn’t come across in an online post.
The alternative (assuming that everyone is always serious) is too terrifying for me to contemplate.
You’re putting us on, right?
I think the trolls from failbook found this site.
Take a chill pill, people! Yelling at this person on DYAC isn’t going to save the world.
LIES! Yelling at random strangers always fixes the world’s problems! That’s why I make sure to verbally abuse at least 1 stranger a day. Today, that’s you! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!
Nor destroy it.
fake and dumb
Anybody else noticed that she’s got 15750 notifications (look in the top left corner) o.O
That’s an embarrassment if I ever saw one.
What’s with the lack of new autocorrects?
Wondering the same thing
nothing new for 2 days 
Really good question Liz, its like the whole site has just…stopped. Hope Jillian is OK.
Maybe she’s stopped uploading on weekends? Would make sense, but it would be nice for her to post a little notice about it or something.
She’s stopped updating FNH for awhile due to “traveling and relocating.” It looks like that might be touching DYAC as well.
