Read that as "cyber bullying" and was really confused for about 5 minutes. It's time for bed.

  It's only two letters different, and "cyber building" seems far less plausible of a term today than "cyber bullying", so that's easy to explain - the "mental autocomplete" did the same thing for me too.

    I'd be interested in a directory or database of these "mental autocorrects" - it seems like the applications of these errors that you don't even notice could be interesting. For another example, notice the the fact that I incorrectly used "the" twice in a row earlier in this sentence.

      I caught them on the spot :-)

      It makes me wonder how the brain excels at correcting and completing stuff. In doing so, it keeps jumping backward and forward until it's done doing its job so well!
