The autocorrect on this phone is really pissing me off. It's too helpful to turn off, but it won't stop replacing curse words. I know this has been discussed before, but I have tried the commonly suggested tips of putting a contact with the name "*****" into the address book but it hasn't worked. Has anyone else successfully gotten the iPhone to stop autocorrecting curses?
Got a tip for us?

Someone told me to go into the Notes app and just type the word like 6 times or so and eventually the phone will "learn" it. I tried this for my dog's name and it worked. So now when I start typing her name, the auto-complete comes up. It did not do this before I tried that trick.
