English is a dying language....

Jeff,

perhaps that is appropriate, if the parts are "made in china" ....

Maybe they could get half credit for getting all the letters right.

A major threat to the English language is "autospell".

People have become lazy, no longer proof their writing or check their spelling.

I hope whoever created "autospell" burns in hello . . .

Since the early 70's, I was a huge fan of the old Prairie Home
Companion radio show.  For decades, it was a wonderful "escape"
to an old school humor and outlook on life.  Then Garrison Kiellor
took the show in a then-current political direction and the show
did a death spiral.  One bright spot that came out in the end days
was a skit, based on autocorrect.  The premise being they would
run classic theatre scripts through autocorrect and then performing
the play.  The results were very funny !

  But it points up the base line issue that this is funny because
this digital BS is familiar and frustrating to all of us.  Am I the only
one who wonders what the digital generations will look back on as
the foundational good things their lives were about ?
