HOW ANNOYING!

We all go through life knowing well-meaning people who like to and want to help. They tend to jump every time something happens, you drop a spoon or piece of paper, and by the time you bend down to pick it up, you bump heads, because he/she is there before you realize it hit the floor!

You are in a group conversation, and relating a story, usually funny and someone in the crowd wants to tell it too, they interrupt, destroy your train of thought, and are on the wrong track, this becomes a nuisance. It makes me nuts.

But those are human traits, the ones we all deal with and go through life with these petty annoyances. But…

What happens in today’s world of electronic devices that are created by someone who transposes his habits to the device when he designs it? What am I speaking about?  Spell check!

The other morning TLW (The Little Woman) complained to me she couldn’t download an app because it wouldn’t spell correctly on her android. She complained she typed, but the words kept changing. She is new to android so she didn’t realize or see the offering on the top of her window by spell check. I explained to her what was happening and what to do and she will try that.

I personally would like to rid my phone of spell check, even though I am a notoriously bad speller. I type sometimes, never looking at what I’m typing and before you know it, in a long paragraph where there may be a wrong choice by spell check, that assumes things for me I don’t want assumed. This makes me annoyed: as I have to poke through the words to get to the wrong word and fix it. Even as I fix it, it is jumping to another word I don’t want, causing me to screw up yet another word or two.

My solution is easy, no messages to type, if I want to tell you something, I’ll call or write you a letter by hand, the Hell with spell check.
