I have found the gen xers are the WORST at texting and writing in general. At least the ones I know.
I would die without autocorrect. I grew up with "mom, how do I spell (word)" and getting "sound it out", witch werks grate in Inglish...
I grew up getting "Look it up!" and I still can't spell for shit.
I HATED that one...look it up in the Dictionary....sure ok, let me look up a word I can't spell ...ffs!
Ever watch a kid who grew up after smartphones try to type?
