Hello, hello! It’s another Writer Vs. Spellchecker! And there are THREE new characters!
Autocorrect: Spellchecker’s other comrade. Says everything robotically, doesn’t know what it’s doing.
The Pit of Indecisiveness: *shows up whenever the WIPs are around*
WIPs: My stories.
Autocorrect Arrives
(I made this one up; it didn’t actually happen to me. It was in response to some autocorrect troubles some of the other ladies were having)
Writer: They lived happily ever-
Autocorrect: Livid.
Writer: No, it’s lived.
Autocorrect: Livid.
Writer: *headdesk* SPELLCHECKER!!
Spellchecker: What did I do this time?
Writer: GET AUTOCORRECT OUT OF HERE, I’M TRYING TO WRITE!
Spellchecker: …no.
Writer: Why, you little…*tosses Autocorrect out the door*
Comma Troubles
Writer: *writing* “-because we specifically instructed those we’ve already told-“
Spellchecker: *inserts comma between ‘those’ and ‘we’ve’*
Writer: Yeah, no. *hits ignore*
Contraction or No Contractions, Part 2
Writer: THIS IS NOT FORMAL WRITING
Spellchecker: I DON’T CARE
The Pit of Indecisiveness
Writer: Um…I pick…
Pit of Indecisiveness: You have 40+ WIPs. Choose wisely.
Writer: *runs away to the Land of Procrastination, aka Social Media*
Contractions or No Contractions, Part 3
Writer: STOP TRYING TO GET ME TO WRITE FORMALLY
Spellchecker: IT IS THE PROPER WAY TO WRITE
Writer: WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS

I love how in Contractions Part 2 the “writer” DOES NOT use a contraction and the spellchecker does! 😀 (is not vs. don’t!)
