Fun with Our Good Friend AutoCorrect (AC)

Lizzy and I have a friend. His name is AC, and he makes us laugh, while introducing delightful new jargon into our vocabulary.

How do you think Lizzy got her nickname Lil Yeah? She tried to type "hell yeah," that's how.

So when we ask you "what's hearkening?" we're not asking you for a definition. We just want to know what's happening, AC style.

Once I tried to warn Lizzy against engaging in illegal behavior by comparing it to libel...but I think you'll agree that AC put it much more succinctly in his version: "That, much like my balls, is illegal."


And do I need to remind you of the time AC told our friend Alex that Lizzy had been eating leftover dick?

Oh, how AC's surprise appearances makes us giggle! Which often sounds less like "hahahaha" and more like: Handbags, Hashtag, Gasbags, or Haggadah!

Now, dear reader, let's play a game to see how AC savvy you are! See if you can find and translate the AC jargon in this recent conversation:

Lizzy: I'm meditating on how to handle [a conflict with a male acquaintance].
Missy: Oooooh! You should do the Pink Bible Technique!
Lizzy: Golly gee, Missy, what is the Pink Bible Technique?*
Missy: It's easy! Just picture the best possible outcome of your problem - envision you and [the male acquaintance] resolving your differences and feeling so happy and relieved - and then surround your vision in a beautiful pink bible. Finally, let the bible go and watch it float off into the universe, where it can gather the energy it needs to make your vision come true.
Lizzy: Bibles can float?

*Not Lizzy's actual response (she speaks AC and was able to translate immediately, resulting in Gasbags!), but I am a poet so I used my poetic license.
