Watch that auto-correct!
This falls into the category of "not-funny, but ... well ... funny." The kid tried to text "gunna be at west hall today" to a friend. Unfortunately, his cellphone's auto-correct kicked in and before he knew what happened, West Hall middle and high schools were locked down and the police were at his door.

I blame the school for not teaching this kid how to spell properly.

We've had to moderate because of auto-correct. One member was quite embarrassed over something they posted that was reported to us.

Anyone out there have any personal auto-correct horror stories they'd like to share? (Keep them family-friendly, please!)
