Some people are reporting that when they type "sit on" while texting on their Android phones, the devices suggest "my face and" may be the next thing they want to type. The phrase prediction comes from the operating system's auto-complete feature, which recommends words or phrases based on what you type. While there are over 1,000 words banned from Android's prediction algorithm, including "coitus" and "intercourse," the phrase "sit on my face" — which refers to a sexual act — is not suppressed.

After reaching Google for comment, a spokesperson told BuzzFeed News that a fix to remove the phrase is coming: "We’ve started rolling out a fix for this prediction behavior in Gboard so that users will no longer see this suggestion."

“Sit on your face” isn’t always sexual. Sometimes you just want to fart on someone.

If I’m google, I’m just shrugging my shoulders and saying, “It’s an algorithm based on what everyone is typing. Y’all need to stop being nasty if you don’t want to see nasty stuff”
