I don't think it is Auto-correct. It is Auto-complete or Predictive Text. I also don't believe many of them are true. That doesn't mean that they are not funny, just that they were actually typed in exactly as they appear rather than by a function of the respective phone. No phone that I have owned has ever suggested 'cameltoe' or 'mindf**k'. I doubt that they would be in any initial dictionary, think of the possible consequences in such a litigious country as the US if a child's phone offered those. If the scripts are real then those words must be learned and used more frequently than other possibilities. So, given that the words are a common part of the users vocab, why should they be surprised when they are offered. Nonsense, funny nonsense but still nonsense.

You'd be surprised with the iPhone, I have an iPod Touch and it learns stuff like that after only a few uses of the word. And being touch only it's pretty easy to miss a couple keys and make it more similar to the wrong alternative. Luckily all my autocorrect mistakes stay with me because it's not a phone.

Aaaauuuuugggghh! I'm sitting here at work, looking like the older coach in Porky's. I think my head is going to explode. My jaw is aching from clenching. Thank you. Hate the autocorrect. Why does it always go to the least likely choice? I corrected one mistake yesterday, explaining that I had fat gingered it. So, of course, I had to send a correction to the correction.

They're obviously fake.

iPhone learns from what you type and in my experience gives more priority to words which you type more often or the words which you have typed before. -Saurabh
