A Frikkin Hashtag: #AutocorrectASaying

Way back in the day our game #AutocorrectASentence was one of the most times we had experienced and so we decided we needed to drag Auto Carrot out of the closest for one more goad:

The Story So Far: Every Wednesday at 12 noon South African time [6 am EDT] an inspired and growing number of brilliant, creative and absolutely fun people from all around the world take part in what is called a Hashtag game. @AFrikkinHashtag [say it out loud] is South Africa’s #1 Hashtag game and is always a lot of fun. The F.L.O.P. [or Fish List Of Prizeworthyness] is the collection of some of the best tweets from each week’s game and is what all seriously comedic Hashtaggers aspire to…]

This week it was the chance of Cool Chris aka @CoolChris_007 in our co-host seat:

As per usual we sent out an invitation:

And prepared ourselves for a super fun game, starting with some examples:

We hope this will be your response to todays AFH game with @BrettFishA & co-host @CoolChris_007 on @HashtagRoundup as we #AutocorrectASaying:

If Liam Neeson’s character had been played by a young single woman, would the movie title have been Mistaken?

Chris was very quickly on the board:

We had a couple of bot visitations;

And then, of course, there were all of you, and many many more but like Pokemon Go we could not catch them all. But the tweets that jumped out at us and demanded our milk money are the ones that make it on to this week’s:

FISH LIST OF PRIZEWORTHYNESS [aka The F.L.O.P.]

While Lego was concerned about some out of control monks:

Pretty much every tweet was a F.L.O.P. tweet this week cos they were all so good, but this one from Stephen took the coke, um the cake as with a simple autocorrecting manoever he was able to completely change the meaning of this iconic response 100% and is this week’s TOP F.L.O.P. with:

Amazing work – you guys continue to amaze – hue shoutout to Chris for co-hosting and finally making it on to a F.L.O.P. [let’s see you more often, guy!] and of course to The UnNamed Ones who must be the most incorrectly named group of collaborators the world has ever seen.

Til next game, keep the WIT in the Twitterer
