I drink iced tea, even in the dang cold snowy tundra of NYstate.

I’m having a Snapple right now.
If one uses FR daily and doesn’t donate because they think their opinions are worth so much that others should pay for them, I would like an opportunity to knock the bumptious out of them.

Auto correct is bumptious !!
I only bother them when I misspell the word. Autocorrect is like mystery messaging, never know what you really said till someone gets mad at you.

Isn’t that the truth!!!!
I have a new notebook that doesn’t only mistype the word I’m type but may complete change a word earlier in the sentence that was already set. One Freeper I’ve known forever asked if I was drunk. Lol. It’s a PIA !
LMAO A++++
