Americans Accept “Abs” to Mean “And” Plus More from Unrelenting iOS Devotees

How many times have you seen “abs” instead of “and”? Not many, if you use an Android based keyboard which actually learns from your typing or swiping. Not the same story with Apple’s keyboard, but die-hard devotees remain undeterred. Some users have gone as far as to rename their own children. One user explains, “I’ve spent 10 years typing in my kids’ names and I’ve just given up. Astrid is Astros. Zoey is Sorry. Xavier is Cabinet. Actually what was really difficult to explain to my husband was the name of my favorite drink – the aperitif, Pernod Anise. Sorry I’m not going to elaborate. In the end though, what am I supposed to do? I’m not going to keep retyping everything, and moving to another platform would just make me an iLoser.”
