So I was texting with my iphone...

Friend: You went shopping

Me: Ya! I bought a lot of thongs!!! lol!

Friend: Oh

Me: No, no, I mean things!!! :(

So what are the embarrassing typos you had made? :(

These touch screen thingy are too much for my FAT FINGERS!!! :(

In Australia thongs are the sandal things that you wear to the beach, which can cause confusion when talking to foreigners or Sisqó fans.

I was eating a bunch of whoopees (these things (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/18/dining/18whoop.html)).

I texted my mum "I love Whoopees!".

It autocorrected to "I Love Willies!".

Pretty awkward!

So what do you call American thongs?? Do girls even wear them over there?

Flip flops = cooler name than thongs. It's onomatopoeic!

I always make terrible mistakes with my iPhone. I've still not gotten used to the touch screen and I fully intend on buying one of those iPhone cases that lets you type qwerty keyboard style when I upgrade - I have a 3G, which doesn't support that feature.

I have one of those old clunky phones that you have to input slowly l-e-t-t-e-r b-y l-e-t-t-e-r and it has no autocorrect so I don't have to worry about that so much.

That said, one time I was trying to send *cuddles* to one of my exes over IM and I sent it to my mom instead. :|

This is why I never, ever buy phones with touchscreens. I make phenomenal errors, usually. Dx

This isn't off topic because it vaguely relates to the poll.

I saw a pair of panda flip flops and I was gonna buy them but then the thought of standing on their faces made me reconsider. :( That and they were too expensive.

I bet you're so glad I told you about this.

Pluggers is also a term we use sometimes. I just don't talk about them.

Butt pluggers, you say?

Considering how frequently people seem to kick each other in the buttocks, I'd say you were accurate.
