Dam Spell Checker

Yesterday I was catching up from 3 days worth of email and not always paying attention to my spell checker. I finished one of my notes with the phrase “Sorry for the inconvenience” or so I thought. I got notes back from the 3 guys that said I’m really sorry to hear that. Being the bad speller that I am, I try and get close the the spell checker normally picks the correct word for me, so I mail and hit OK to the spell checkers picking of words. This day I wasn’t so lucky, so the message read “Sorry for the incontinence”, which it wasn’t till later that I did the define on Google that I found out what that word was. But it sure made sense why the people reading the note kept apologizing to me. Here are the definitions below.

inconvenience - the quality of not being useful or convenient

incontinence - the inability to control bowel and/or urine elimination
