Ok, I presume most people use predicitive text and will know what I'm talking about. You know the way that certain sequences of letters will bring up more than one word, we'll it's funny how some of them are linked by association.

A few examples are,
Gone - Home
Lips - Kiss
Cake - Bake
Cakes - Baker
More? - Nope!
Puppy - Pussy
Pint - Shot - Riot

Well I find them funny anyway.

Anyone have anymore?

Pints also gives you Pious aswell as Shots and Riots.

If you have any friends called Brian, you'll find that they turn out to be Aisan.

some fella was on teh metro over here saying he typed in the word "earlier" and "darkie" appeared as the first word, he said he had never used the word and certainly never wrote it, as some phones remember the most often used word for a sequence of characters.

I still manually write out my texts, the predictive lark kinda gets on my wick.

No not really, just can't be arsed with it. I suppose I could be guilty of not really giving it a chance but it's hardly going to change my life so I'll stick with my "old skool" way.;) :D

I don't use predictive text on my fone. I don't think it has it but on my old fone, the blue Nokia everyone had about 3 years ago, words which were in my dictionary (apparently) were blowjob and handjob!

You wern't watching Jonathan Ross by any chance were ya?

Had a mate Jase who would always come up as "lard", left a few "www"'s on the end of messages, my lass Char initially comes up as "bias", "me" and "of" is an annoying on...and Leonie initiall comes up as "jennif" which is wierd because Leonie is a name and I've never heard of anyone called "Jennif" :D

I know...I don't see the point in wanting something to predict what I want to write.....I know what I want to write already without it needing to be predicting it, thank you..:mad: :D

Could predictive text be used as an excuse by the defendant at some point?:confused: "I never intended to threaten her m'Lud it was the damned Predictive Text on my mobile!"

Predictive texters are much quicker than old skoolers, your just like my mate that cant figure it out and are too impatient to bother trying it..

Couple of other ones:
When I type in my mate Richard's name as Richie, it shows up as Shagge
Similarly Conor shows up as booms!

Niamh = Miami !!

'me' = 'of' is definately the most annoying one. Predictive text is good though, once you don't forget to change a mistaken word!

No Liam, haven't seen his show for a while now.
Did he discuss this topic?
Maybe he's a foot.ie reader? ;)

Had this conversation at the weekend and one of the lads immediately blurted out "C0ck - Anal"
Needless to say he got a right slagging. :D

:D :D He was talking to Steven Fry who was discussing how younger kids now (about 12-13) use "book" as cool when they speak....simply because cool initially comes up as book on many phones....I'm so glad I wasn't born 5 years later or I could be one of these kids going around going "wow that's book" :D
