Practical jokes

My daughter played this one on me.

A few weeks ago my husband texted me about dinner, and I wrote back "ok", only it came out "oink-oink". Weirdness. I mentioned it to my daughter who said "wow, that's strange"

Went on vacation to the beach, texting back to my family (how's it going?....oink-oink) , cat pet sitter, neighbors (can we use your pool?... oink-oink)
A few days later, a neighbor texted me, "I think Michelle left her bracelets" "Oink-Oink, I'll go look for them"
Well it was starting to get annoying.

That night my daughter wrote about my granddaughter, who was staying over night. I wrote back "(explosion emoji) went right to sleep"
She: (Fireworks emoji)
Me: Great now it's substituting graphics for words. I just wrote to Chris and (telephone emoji) turned into (telephone emoji)
She: What the heck? What did he say?
Me: He kindly said nothing.
Me: (crystal ball emoji) = t h e (telephone emoji) = a n d (explosion emoji) = s h e
Me (pile of poop emoji) NEXT?
Me: OMG it had to pick the pile of poop emoji for 'what'?

She: Hah!
Me: and I thought oink-oink was bad.
Me: Maybe I just need to plug it in for a while

By this time she's peeing her pants laughing at her house.

Next day when she came to pick up her daughter, she confessed that she'd set it up and I about peed MY pants laughing, but very relieved. She said she figured she'd better tell me before I went to a verizon store and they had me buy a new phone :)
