Channel Ten
On Monday night, The Project co-host Carrie Bickmore was left speechless and red-faced after Steve Price made a raunchy joke in regards to the automatic correcting of text messages.
Carrie began the segment complaining that she had attempted to text the “F-bomb” on her mobile, but it autocorrected the expletive to the tamer word “ducking”.
“Ducking comes up all the time, and it’s ducking annoying!” exclaimed Carrie to Steve and fellow panelists Peter Helliar and Waleed Aly.
“The worst part is when you see it say ‘ducking’ and you’re like ‘No, I wanted it…’ so you change it to what you want and then it says ‘duck’ again, and then it’s ‘duck’, ‘duck’, ‘duck’ and you’re like ‘No!'” she continued.
Price then took the moment to slip in a raunchy joke saying, “So if I get a message from you saying ‘Let’s go ducking next week’…”
Carrie’s jaw dropped open as the audience burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, Peter gave Steve an unimpressed look and Waleed gasped, “Excuse me?!”
“I’ve never felt so uncomfortable,” giggled Carrie as she struggled to regain her composure.
“Sorry, I apologise!” responded Steve.
