coincidence would imply that the autocorrection result was unrelated to the word keyed in, i.e. that your autocorrect is entirely randomised

time to upgrade your firmware?

ACTUALLY it is probably a learning autocorrect, ergo we can conclude that you would be more likely to use the word gimp than homo in that particular sentence structure.

Yeah, they should miss out on the hundreds of times autocorrect helps texting to avoid the odd incorrect word. Great advice Randy.

Only fagg0ts use auto correct. Real men enter each and every letter of their message. regardless of what their phone suggests.

Real men just suck it up and let autocorrect mean what they say instead.

Proofreading and having typos automatically fixed for you is better, Randy.
