Text Fails:
I texted my maintenance guy, “I love you” instead of my boyfriend. I had to text the maintenance guy to tell him that I didn’t love him. He never texted back.
My mom ordered a dress from Amazon and was tracking it; she meant to say the dress is on its way, but texted “death is on its way and you are the next step.”
My mom texted me, “Aunt Mary died. LOL.” She thought lol meant “lots of love.”
I once got a text from my mom where, “You’re amazing” autocorrected to “you’re adopted.”
