mobilion similarity syndrome

The frustration felt when typing a text message on a mobile phone with the predictive text feature turned on and it *always* entering the wrong word.

'My dog has gone to a good home', turns into 'My dog has good to a good good'.

'Arsenal have a game in hand', turns into 'Arsenal have a game in game'.

These are both simple examples of mobilion similarity syndrome and lead to great frustration.
