Or their phone keyboard offered an autocorrection… Google have been doing that for years now.

Or they could just know the correct spelling of a common Arabic name.

To be fair, if I swipe kalifa on my keyboard it autocorrects to Khalifa every time. There is no kalifa option other than the one I've just forced. If this person wasn't paying attention to the "h" it could've been accidental.

Tbf, you don't have to be a rainman of early 2010s porn to recognise poor transliteration arabic to english, but i'm sure it helps.

I hate modern Internet culture

They might be aware of the Burge Khalifa building

Most awesome thing I've seen today edit: wait I hiked up a hill and looked at the city skyline today, nevermind

Or autocorrect or they read it and wrote it how it sounded to them without looking closely at spelling or many other possible reasons.

Ok but... who is Mia khalifa?

(I looked it up, I think it's former controversial porn actress, current internet personality)

They could've searched "Mia Kalifa" and found out the correct spelling. So it's not necessarily begging for attention.

your

I love when smug dickheads make 2nd grade grammar errors.

Idk I just typed "kalifa" and had to fix autocorrect changing it to Khalifa. Or dude could be familiar with Arabic transliteration and the name but not the person.

Doesn't matter to me though. I'm distracted now that I'm thinking about Mia Khalifa.

Uff thats merciless
