The Power of Autocorrect

Writing an important update email to a very strict senior manager named Denis, with whom the previous encounters were also uncomfortable.

About to click send, but thought to read it once.
Imagine what autocorrect did...

D became P

I conclude it was a lucky day.

    Are you sure the P was autocorrected and not made by your subconsciousness? :P

    @404response I am 200% sure. And since I already had tough time with that manager, I was even more focused while writing the email.

    @mrlinnth no. I was using laptop. And I pray to God that this was the first time such thing happened and I captured it before a disaster.

    We have this slang in our country at the end of the message we write "set" just like we write "cheers". Auto-correct changes "set" to "sex" many times. Just recently I have stopped using mobile to send emails. Just to be safe.

    @error503 haha.. sex.. oops sorry. Set.
    Though, isn't set a correct word and should not be autocorrected to sex.

    @github Yes, It shouldn't. I don't know what the fuck is wrong.

    @error503 well. In that case, be cautious.
    Btw, which language are you referring that uses "set"?

    @error503 I think @github was trying to ask which country language not the literal input language type 🤔
