Today, a friend told me over MSN that her father had died. Trying to express some solidarity, I went to send her a tearful smiley. I accidentally sent her the dancing pig animation instead. FML

Treacherous smileys

Thoughts and prayers

Today, my best friend was texting me about her sick dog. She wrote, "Do you think she will get better?", so I wrote, "I hope she does." It wasn't until later that I realized I accidentally wrote, "I hope she dies" instead. FML

Today, my good friend who just had a baby girl sent her newborn's pictures to me via picture message. To reply, instead of writing "Awwwwww" I wrote "Ewwwwww" by mistake. FML

Today, a friend posted the Facebook status "Ahhh... relief." Trying to be funny, I replied "Why? Did you just poop?" A few hours later, I read her previous posts and found out her dad's in the hospital having heart surgery. Now everyone thinks I'm a heartless dick. FML

Always proofread before sending

Today, I was texting with my close friend about her very sick father. She texted, "I hope he gets better" and I replied, "I hope he does." Autocorrect changed it to, "I hope he dies." FML

It may have cheered her up. You never know. P.S., why would you send a "cheerful smiley" to cheer her up?

This reminds me of a time I had a shitty phone that only showed still shots of animations. I found out I was blowing kisses and blushing when I thought it was different variations of smiles.. Screw emotion-icons

THAT is why instead of using emoticons, you use your words to write a sympathetic note. Example: "I am so sorry to hear about your father. He was a really great man and we'll all miss him. Call me if you need anything!" Was that so hard?
