Adding insult to injury

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I was answering a text from one of my students asking me if they could retake a test. I thought I'd texted back, "No, you can't." Auto correct had used a more frequently used word: "No, you cunt." FML

well if that's on of your frequent used words YDI

You must be a cool teacher for letting your students text you! You might be cool enough to make them think it's ok to call them a ****.

Yeah, it's not a big deal. I have my voice teacher's number, even went to her apartment once. I also have my psych teacher's number, but she rejected me on FB ;P I have my former philosophy teacher's number, too. Just in case I ever need him to write me a letter of recommendation. Same with my ex-archaeology one. It's not that uncommon to interact with teachers outside the class in college, especially since maintaining a relationship of any sort with them opens up some doors for recommendations.

Teachers are real people you know. People often forget that they have lives and it is okay to interact with them.

It's very smart of you to write again the comment for which you got moderated, tparis90120. Obviously, moderators don't like sexist crap.

Pendatik, it was in* , not "In". Thanks for playing, fag.

Yes he is, 123. And I think you're in need of a stay in his grammar concentration camp. Too far?

Sinkhole 26

I think you mean 153, ktdad07. I'll write you up for pendatik's pedantry concentration camp. :D

Then my plan worked perfectly.

Jjustin - Try it this way: "Wow, 120, you're such a Grammar Nazi!" No, no, don't thank me. It's a public service. Oopsy, does that make me a Grammar Nazi too?

Doc, you're merely trying to save the damned. He/she/it is already infected with the terrible curse of having poor grammar. He/she/it is already too far gone... :(

Dear God of the phone & other technologies: please, PLEASE, help us poor folk with our grammar, sentence structure & language difficulties in general. There is about to be an uprising like one never seen before...virtual personalities are about to round us inferior "others" up for our laziness & mis-use of the technologies you've given us. Please, O Lord of the 4G, give them a soft heart. Let them accept us as we are & understand that auto-correct & capitalization are a pain in the ass!

At my school the teachers give out numbers so they can talk to you about classes or something if you need help.

In college a lot of professors are more open to giving out their number just as a matter of convenience. In a public high school the teacher would probably get fired lol.

well if that's on of your frequent used words YDI

Guess your name truly fits you. If you read the end of the FML it says her phone auto-corrected it to say "****" =]

If you read the end of the FML, it says that that's a "more frequently used word."

18 that didn't make sense for several reasons...

Why can't she use this word you C-- oh wait!

Maybe they deserved it from karma. If they were just nice and told them they could, this wouldn't have happened! :D

Haha. Funny to me, but that's horrible for you.

I still don't get how u and a are on same button you most have missed texted it so don't blame the phone

You must be a cool teacher for letting your students text you! You might be cool enough to make them think it's ok to call them a ****.

Cant -noun: 1. insincere, especially conventional expressions of enthusiasm for high ideals, goodness, or piety. 2. the private language of the underworld. 3. the phraseology peculiar to a particular class, party, profession, etc.: the cant of the fashion industry. 4. whining or singsong speech, especially of beggars.

34 ikr haha and 14 i enjoyed boxxys video lol shes cute.

Goodies, IKR means "I kill respondents". So I would advise NOT responding to him...or else.

Texting professors is fairly common in college 8... but if OP is in high school then that is a bit weird

I have my theatre teachers number and my choir teachers also, and am in high school. The teachers use texting to get in touch with students when we are on trips and such.

215 what are you talking about?

YDI. Always check your texts/emails/letters. Especially if you're a teacher.
