Why is Katie always talking about Latin dancing when she gets unlucky?

RT @ehonda500mob #Rumbas what do that mean @OnAFoldDraw @caitycaity

Anyone who owns an iPhone knows that its autocorrect feature sometimes takes a little while to get used to your own peculiarities.  For a very long time, whenever I wanted to type "for", I would end up with "fir" prompting numerous embarrassing texts in which I sound like an uneducated hick, as well as myriad pine tree jokes from @onafolddraw.  And then there was the time at the series last year when I sent a bunch of angry tweets where "go fuck yourself" got changed to "go duck yourself."  Not QUITE the same effect.  Fortunately, my phone has now adapted and realizes that when I type fuck, I generally didn't intend to say duck. 

Rumbas is one such addition to my lexicon that I have decided to keep.  I can't tell the hilarity of how rumbas started in 140 characters, so here is the official story:

Sometime back in 2009, I was at Harrah's AC Poker room.  @realdawnsummers and I were tweeting back and forth about my session which had just come to an abrupt end when my QQ < 92o after I check-raise 5 bet from UTG pre flop.  Yes, it was one of THOSE days.  Actually, that day had a happy ending, as I got a pep talk from Brian ("If there was any player in this room that I would back, it would be you! You KNOW you can do this!") and ended up with profit, after getting stuck quite a lot.  But I digress.

I was in the midst of some "OMFG can you believe 92 just cracked my QQ? How is 924r not a safe flop there???" tweet to Dawn when I decided I needed to add a bunch of hilarious hashtags.  (In case you don't know, Dawn is the queen of #SuperLongHashTagMemesThatAlwaysCrackMeUp).  Of course, the first hashtag I added was #runbad...or at least what I thought was #runbad.  I was tilty and taking a walk to get my head together and hit send without proofreading. 

Shortly thereafter, I noticed my iPhone had autocorrected #runbad to #rumbas.  In case you don't know, a rumba is a Latin dance.  In between fits of laughter, I tweeted back Dawn to say "#rumbas, WTF is that? OBV I meant #runbad. LOL"

Apparently Dawn thought #rumbas was as funny as me, so now we both frequently use #rumbas instead of #runbad.  I have to say, it makes me giggle a little bit every time, and therefore not be on #rumbas tilt.  In addition to the dance, rumbas is also the Spanish word for parties, which is of course what one tends to throw when on tilt after some #runbad.  Perhaps my smart phone is actually smarter than me...
