I was posting about a recruit’s weight and autocorrect changed potatos to potatoes. Am I the only old guy who remembers a VP candidate getting destroyed by the media for spelling potatoes with an E? 🤔

It was singular, he added an “e”, and was rightly crtisized.

Potato has no “e”,

Looks like you did not know how to spell “potatoes”.

😮Actually potatoe at the time was a correct spelling according to Mirriam Webster. It was listed as an alternate spelling. I need to go back to bed. Had to pick my wife up late at the airport last night. Potato’s is the other autocorrect result that makes me go huh.
