Spell check and predictive text.
Back in the day, I always used to laugh when I typed prosciutto and spell check would try to change it to prostitute. Today, I'm starting to type prospect and predictive text "predicted" prostrate. Anyone else get blindsided with this "helpfulness"?

Even if I'm texting to others at work, my phone spell check screws up with the word "lates", the term we use referring to the 9 and 10 pm news. My text keeps wanting to add another "T" to it for "latest".
My fingers also always seem to hit the period button too easily when actually trying to hit the space bar on the phone.
