As far as funny text fails go, we bet it’s safe to say that we’ve all experienced it at least once in our lives. Nope, you’re not one to send out your evening plans to get #wasted to your boss, and nope, you’re not the only one to send an unsolicited shopping list to your nail technician.
However, if you thought that your text fails were pretty embarrassing, just wait until your eyes meet these disastrous texting fails that we’ve rounded up on our list. They. Are. Mortifying. And we are sure glad it wasn’t us, neither in the sender’s nor in the receiver’s place.
So, what should you expect from the most embarrassing text fails you’re about to see on our list? Well, for one, a message is usually just a message until you send it to a completely wrong person. And that happens quite a lot! Now, while these days you can unsend the embarrassing note as soon as it hits someone else’s phone, that wasn’t the case just a few years back, and all of these slip-ups of judgment have been screenshotted and saved. Then, there’s the case of misunderstood clues and reading a question in a completely backward way. And those text message fails, by far, are the most hilarious!
Still, none of us are safe from these mishaps of epic proportions, and we’re all equal in this rather funky situation. Lastly, there’s the case of funny autocorrect text fails, and some of them are so weird that even though a context might be provided, you’ll still need to wrack your brain trying to understand what’s happening!
Right-o, ready to dive into the world of epic text message fails? Sure you are, but don’t forget to warm up your abs because some serious chuckling is coming your way. However, once you’ve let all the giggles out of your system, vote for the hilarious text fails that amused you the most and share this article with your friends.

I thought the text fail was in the 1st text when they said they were going to have to disappear bc of a lost family member (died). It sounded like they killed the family member & was going to have to disappear to a non-extradition South American country for a couple years.

11 years old I'd too got'damn young to be trying to have "relationships"! When my daughter was 10 she had so many crushes and asked about dating. "Hell naw!" I told her their child minds do not know how to treat another right, and that it will be too much of a distraction from school. Also that the feelings they have now come and go like nothing else, seriously not liking their crush from yesterday and crushing on someone new today. She understood and is 11 now and I haven't heard another peep about dating 🙌

My husband (friend at the time of the convo) texted me "I'm gonna order some food" but he missed just one letter and it basically spelled out "I'm gonna order some(one) to bang" in our language soo basically I just responded like any normal human being would, with "didn't know you could do that"

recently I was getting a pina colada and after I said “can I get a pina colada” they said “anything else” at the exact same time that I said “a virgin” meaning a pina colada without alcohol but it sounded like I was trying to order a virgin from the drinks stand which was pretty awkward thankfully the person was just like “dont worry we dont put alcohol in any of the drinks” so together we just completely ignored the fact that I ordered a virgin by accident

I don't understand how there are so many failed attempts like this in these texts. If I accidentally have an autocorrect and I catch it after it's sent, I'll check the next one before I send it. Am I unaware of something, and if so, could someone explain it to me?

My brother and dad both use voice text. I always have to read what they text out loud to figure out what they may have meant. Like a text from one of them saying "I won to a dog door" would likely mean they said "I went to a doctor" and their phone heard "I won to a dog door"

Was running a marching band competition a bit ago. Texted one of the drum majors using speech to text about being a warm up 1 guide and where I should stay. Thank god I checked it before I sent it, because it texted as “if I’m a woman p0rn god” and I feel like she would’ve been thoroughly confused if she received that text.
