[OT] This is why I don’t use AutoCorrect

  • Bill Bickel, Halloween
  • 21 Comments
Somebody in my town posted that all the trick-or-treaters were very polite, “even the little Muslims.”
She got a lot of very angry responses before she realized what had happened and posted a follow-up: “I’d typed MUNCHKINS!”
Auto-correct is evil. I swear, someday WW3 will begin because Autocorrect changes a word in a high-level communiqué.

I think this reference is from way before Arlo’s time as well as before the kid’s time. Probably before Arlo’s father’s time as well. So is this just a case of Arlo having helped himself to the pumpkin spice vodka?
