Written for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt

where we’re asked to be creative in

My friends apologize for every texting error they make. “Sorry, damn autocorrect!” they write. “Oops! Ignore that!”

Their panicky emojis amuse me. Why does it matter so much? Language adapts, meaning persists.

I never correct them. Why would I? Perfection is overrated. Besides, I’m fluent in typo.
