As you all know, I recently joined seemingly everyone else in the world and got a smartphone. I occasionally like to go through the user dictionary on my phone and delete all the words that I typed by accident when I was either drunk or just too lazy to correct my typos. I see this as maintenance and a way of ensuring that these words have a lower chance of popping up in further emails/texts/etc.
I noticed that, in only 2 months, I have amassed quite a personal dictionary of words I've taught my little Droid to know. Here are some examples. They typically fall into a few categories:
Words Where I Choose to Extend One Letter For Entirely Too Long
Amazinggg
Awesomeeeee
Babyyyy
Craaaazy
Everrrr
Hoorayyyyy
Lataaaaa
Nerdddd
Noooooo
Wtfffff
Words Related to Drinking and/or Generally Going Out
Bev
Bouncer
Hungover
Loko
LOKOOOOOO (some overlap in the categories, it seems)
Margaritas
Partaytay
Pregaming
Shithoused
Whipahol
Words That Are Just Flat Out Not Real Dictionary Words
Awk
Badass
Barf
Bihotch
Cougartown
Deets
Frowny
Hobos
Inappropes
Totes
I also could probably dedicate entire sections to variations on curse words (Fuck vs. fucking vs. FUCKING) and offshoots of the word "haha" (ahaha, hahahaha, HAHA).
Essentially what this boils down to is that...I have the vocabulary of a 15 year old girl. Nice.

My iPhone STILL corrects "awk" to "ark," as though I need to talk about arks HALF AS MUCH as I need to talk about things that are uncomfortable.
Also. "Whipahol." Cue my laughter & appreciation.
Wow our vocabs are not that different. I need to get some of these programmed into my iPhone because autocorrect is killing me.
This is hilarious. I need to go through my phone and see what I'm all about.
