bad autocorrect

When autocorrect gets a word very very wrong and you meant to say something else.

Person B (via text): What?
Person A (via text): I meant McDonalds. Bad autocucumber
Person B (via text): Oh ok sure
Person A (via text): Bad autocode
Person A (via text): Bad autocorrect

Freudian autocorrect

A Freudian slip made by inadvertently texting someone what you unconsciously meant, and then saying it was autocorrected text (even when it's super implausible that it autocorrected to that).

/SMS dialogue/
gf: I feel rough af, think i'm getting sick
bf: Take some penis, it'll make you feel better

bf: Echinacea*. Damn Freudian autocorrect.
gf: ahaha. there is no way it autocorrected to that
bf: it Freudian autocorrected

autocorrexting

When you send a text message of random auto-correct words. Using two fingers, type random letters on an iphone until autocorrect makes a word. Then a space must be made to start a new word. A word can be re-started if no correction is offered.

(These names were invented with autocorrexting.)

Rowland Chairlift: "Cindy brings Jordan brunch"
Legs McGraw: "Rocket gospel soaked godsend"
Boots McJob: "Baring Vatican ovary"
Mugs McClain: "Overthrust effects uterus"
Bummer Dewy: "Gherkin coffin"
Keri McCray: "Forked towels"
Seahorse Castro: "Guido scene deleted"

Autocorrect license

A reader understanding the meaning of words in a text message despite autocorrect having changed them from what the sender intended, precluding the need for clarification.

There's no need to send another text saying

"*fucking" Mike, I know and give autocorrect license when you say "my ducking brother is late again"

autocorrectypo

When you are entering a word, especially an uncommon one, into a device that does autocorrection, an autocorrectypo would be where it incorrectly 'corrects' your correct word to the word it thought you meant.

Fido: Woof

(Felix types 'Mew')
Felix: New

Fido: ?

Felix: *Mew
Felix: Damn autocorrectypo!
