It's half term so my pool is full of little nippers.  This vexes I (master Frodo) and when texting a friend to moan about it, I noticed something striking.

HUMAN GUMBO both have the same predictive text! 

This is clearly a Cosmick Truth and must be explored more deeply.

While looking after my 1-year-old recently, I sent a friend a missive and noticed that DAUGHTER and FATIGUE are almost the same keys.
