it's strange that on iPhones it won't correct you when you type "sire" instead of "sure"?? do that people really say "sire" that much? 2 minutes ago from web
via @thisisryanross, obviously.

I honestly kind of want to tear my hair out and YELL AT HIM right now. Okay, grammar =/= how often a word is used. SIRE is still a word, and ( Read more... )

do people actually do this crap, twitter, come on now!, i am a grammar freak

wow, that seems slightly over aggressive. i get frustrated when my phone makes me type something ridiculous. he's right, how many times do you use the word sire in every day conversation? as apposed to how often you use sure?

i guess i don't understand because i've never had that issue - i got a phone for christmas for the first time and i don't have texting or anything cool.

sorry if i actually sounded really upset! i got over it in about four minutes time.

I thought it was kind of cute, and very much Ryan-like, but not necessarily something to get angry over? idk. :(

i get annoyed when my iphone turns 'fuck' into 'duck,' so yeah, i think you might be overreacting.

the world would be a better place if the word duck replaced the word fuck!

and for the sake of making sure no one hates me

never had an iphone and i don't understand this kind andrew when he makes a facebook page and uses the wrong form of "who's/whose" and claims when you're on fb you don't pay attention when typing.

to be honest, i hate his grammar mistakes even more, because it's crazy that a 23-year-old still doesn't know the difference between your and you're, but you know... i just shake my head at him and move on.

i don't think anyone hates you, though haha. i do get your point! but i get where he's coming from, too. ~sire isn't that often used these days and i don't think anyone would miss it that much if it disappeared off the iphone's dictionary.

I mean, yeah, sire is a totally important word, and I feel like Ryan --of all people-- ought to know this, but I maybe was not tempted to do any hair-pulling-out, so. Idk.

ok so maybe "honestly" was the wrong word in that sentence

Haha, I didn't think you did, although other people might have, apparently. I almost said I agreed completely, but then I didn't want people to think I was going to pull out any hair. >_
