I remember in 1985 I was speaking with my dad about the film Tootsie and I said "roll" and he thought I meant it on purpose like "tootsie roll".

My tablet spell check creates more errors than it corrects. Tech is NOT my best friend! I usually have to proofread anything I write on my tablet about 3 times just to "un-do" their so-called corrections. It's a real pain in my ass! My friends say this happens to them as well so I don't know why tech even bothers with trying to correct spelling and grammar. I taught 1st grade and 6th grade yet I think my old fashioned pocket spellcheck from 1996 that I used with my students would be better than Google's spellcheck. If I were still teaching I'm sure my life would be a nightmare.
