Why has that phone's dictionary got an obsession with "skittlepoop"?  It seems like an such an unlikely intended word that the programmers put it in there to be mischievous.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

The Samsung does have predictive text, but its in a subtitle bar so you can select the word. Not one of those "I know better and here it is regardless things"
