Cute, very cute.
I've been noticing a lot of people typing "teh" recently. I didn't think much of it until just now when I sent a PM to the person I'm climbing with this weekend. I mentioned something about how I'd like to "do a little T-R-A-D." Thanks to this "glitch," my message said that I'd like to "do a little tard." This guy has never met me, and now he thinks I want to "do a little tard"!! How the hell is he supposed to trust his life to some guy who likes to do little tards? "Teh" just made people look like careless morons. Now I look like some kind of sicko tard-predator. Not Cool!
Since sarcasm doesn't come across well on forums, I'm not really pissed. It's actually pretty funny. I hope the "glitch" is fixed sometime soon, but in the meantime, I'll looking forward to seeing what other words are messed up. Auto-"correcting" certain words could really wreak havoc on the political threads on here.
For the record, I've read and re-read this message, and I typed T H E correctly every time except when it appears in quotes. I really don't want people thinking I'm a careless moron.

Wow I thought you were spoofing, but I just posted and you are right. Definitive form of speach is being orthographically transposed. I think we can inculpate Ray by default. He is likely up to shenanigans. Don't you feel like a helpless pawn, treading liquid hopeless in an unfathomably immense sea of alphabet soup.
