Plates and Slaves.

Alright, I know “plates” isn’t the most common word used in the English dictionary. But, there have been instances when I’ve typed it into a text message. I am also an avid user of Nokia’s T9 dictionary. As you probably know, you hit the keys which relate to that word and I’m assuming that the most common word comes up first, then you press through until you find the right word. So attention Nokia users, press the buttons related to the word plates (It’s 752837). What word do you get?

Slaves.

Not trying to be provocative here, but really Nokia? The word slaves is more common than plates? We aren’t even talking about Slave here. This is the plural of Slave. Who has ever needed to write about multiple slaves?

“hey man nt doin mcuh just goin to pik up ma slaves.”

To he honest, I think Nokia is trying to tell us something. WHAT ARE YOU HIDING?! Is it slaves? Give me one. I thought this was abolished years ago.

- Will.
