Dear Microsoft Word

Mind your damn business.

Although, this reminds me of the time I wrote Wes saying, "I can't fucking believe..." and Word wanted to correct it to 'unable to fuck' and I about lost my shit.

And well, Zayne must have control at the moment because I have turned into a potty mouth. Sorry.

Ooooh, that would be fun to use if you were writing an alien character who just couldn't get his idioms right!

OMG, that's a great idea!

I didn't know Word did this! I'm trying to figure out what function this is! I get grammar and spelling but I've never seen the offensive message before and Lord knows I've sworn plenty in writing!

I think it might be an addition to the newer version. We have a subscription for Office 365 here at work so we're always on the newest version. It never did that to me before either, and you know what kind of mouth Zayne has! LOL

ETA: I think it's part of the regular spelling/grammar check.

It must be new! I haven't sworn in a Word doc for a while, so I may have to try it out, haha!

Well then, fire up Word and tell someone to go eff off! LOL
