Here, you'll get to post funny conversations. Like this:
dat-autocorrect_o_670314.jpg
 
That thread is specifically for autocorrect mishaps.
This is for various funny conversations, not bound to phones only.
And the example conversation doesn't even contain an autocorrect mishap. It doesn't seem to contain autocorrect at all. :lol:

And if it's not a funny conversation, but a joke told in conversation form, it can go here Joke thread

Yep, you're correct. I was wrong. :guilty:
 
Not really funny converstations per se but nevertheless it's worth sharing:


* Czechoslovakia: in a Czechoslovakian tourist agency: Take one of our horse-driven city tours - we guarantee no miscarriages

Australia To Spain ~ The Mitsubishi four wheel drive marketed in Australia as the “Pajero” was the cause of great embarrassment in Spain where “Pajero” means “masturbator”.

* A British boy studying the language in Germany was riding the school bus home. As it was summer the bus became really hot. In a typically British way of asking for the window to be opened he implied it rather that clearly stated it so asked the boy next to him, 'Bist du heiss?' (Are you hot?). The boy turned and looked with a startled expression. All the other passengers started to giggle. In the end someone explained he had asked his fellow passenger if he 'felt hot' - i.e. was feeling passionate.



* An expat Brit had just moved to Japan and was at a welcome party held in their honour with their new Japanese colleagues. Having just come from Italy, when everyone raised their glasses for a toast he exclaimed "cin cin!" which means "cheers" in Italian. Unbeknown to the poor expat was that "cin cin" meant 'small penis' in Japanese.



* "Sweat Dreams" (hotel in Poland) - guess the air-conditioning doesn't work.
 
Must be, I've never heard it here. If you said that, people would look at you funny.
 
Here's a few contributions. I have a dedicated album on Facebook for things my friends say because my friends are the most hilarious deadpan bitches you'll ever meet.

TB
In the toilet?
It stems from an earlier time where the toilet was in a room of its own - and thus the room was called 'the toilet'. You could be both in and on the toilet.

Though I'd say I was on and in the bog.
