Autocorrect

A useless piece of crap designed to embarrass us and screw us over.

What Autocorrect types: Go to he'll, autocucumber.

Squad Automatic Weapon

Aka Section Automatic Weapon or Squad Assault Weapon. A usually light or general purpose machine guns designed to give army personnel cover while advancing and also to help keep enemy forces from returning fire. Originally designed for increased mobility from the Heavy tripod mounted machine guns of the WWI era. They were designed as an individually portable, gas operated, magazine or disintegrating metallic link-belt fed light support weapon capable of delivering sustained automatic fire for periods of time which assault rifles could not support due to overheating and lack of accuracy.

Autobot

Heroic TransFormer, a member of the original good faction in TransFormers Generation 1 and several subsequent series. (Known as Seibertons or Cybertrons in Japan, and renamed as Maximals for Beast Wars).

Most Autobots transform into cars and land-based vehicles. Diverse in personality, they are usually given "human" traits in their various depictions (fallible, open to error, with personality differences, etc.). Their political economy is based on generosity and on protecting others, especially the weak. As an army, they seem to have been set up solely to fight the Decepticons, who pre-existed them as a fighting force.

The Autobot insignia is a red head, which looks quite like the head of the Autobot Jazz. In the cartoons, Autobots always fire red laser bolts, distinguishable from the Decepticons' purple bolts.

The Autobots nearly always win, usually because of the Decepticons' arrogance and stupidity, despite their usual inferior starting position (itself pretty strange since Autobot toys and named characters have always outnumbered their Decepticon counterparts). This gives a "moral" dimension to TransFormers stories.

Initially led by Optimus Prime, a strong-willed and steadfast yet also self-questioning and insecure Autobot who transformed into a lorry cab. Later led by a number of characters including Rodimus Prime, Ultra Magnus and Fortress Maximus.

Eventually won the war on Earth (where both sides had crashed), apparently due to their cooperation with humans. Were attempting to re-take Cybertron (long a Decepticon preserve) when Unicron struck in Transformers: The Movie. Later took over and rejuvenated Cybertron in series 3 (and after, in Japan) of the cartoon, although in the comics, the war on Cybertron continues indefinitely. (One obscure comic strip in an annual depicts the Autobots eventually winning the war, only to start fighting one another over who was to rule the spoils... hardly in character for the Autobots, probably written by a Hobbesian).

AutoCorrupt

A behavior deliberately built into word processing programs to replace what we meant to say with what they have been programmed to say, regardless of coherence or context. Frustration (and occasional hilarity) ensue. Most commonly associated with smartphones.

Fully Semi-Automatic

The scariest thing in the whole world, the ability for ghost guns to fire 30 magazine clips in under a second. Used by the XR-15 Shorty to kill hundreds of people in seconds.

Autocorrect Defect

When someone texts you something they wish they hadn't, so they claim it was because of autocorrect - even if the word they say they meant to use is actually a word.

Sarah: Sorry! Autocorrect! I meant clock! His clock is so big!
Robby: Why would autocorrect correct a real word? I call autocorrect defect!
