Who doesn't love a funny autocorrect mishap? Well, now there's a new "fail" in town and it's every bit as hilarious as those random word substitutions we've encountered while texting. This one is courtesy of your smartphone's voicemail transcription service -- which seems to wreak havoc on simple messages. We found some hilarious not-suitable-for-work transcriptions that shocked recipients have received and shared.
Take a look at some of the craziest things the automatic "transcriber" thinks it heard. If these don't make you enunciate next time you leave a message, nothing will!

Time to Find a New Salon?
1This appointment sounds like so much more than just a cut and highlights. It could be time to find a new place -- or bring a bodyguard instead of items for the food bank. Or, of course, simply laugh this one off with your stylist.

Perhaps Don't Take Your Pet Here
3First of all, the term "cannibal hospital" is definitely disconcerting, but then this caller goes on to talk about a lady with a banana. We don't want to hear any more!

Calling About a ...?
4Wow, we knew banks were increasing their services to stay competitive but we didn't know they'd branched out into this terrain. They'd better be careful or they'll stumble upon a customer who's interested in taking them up on that!

Change Your What?
5Oh, Verizon, we do not think this is what you meant to say at all! At least we hope not. Still, we can't help but wonder what "package" this customer has.

Skip This Surgery
6"Apple get it together, my mom did not say this," Emily, the owner of this cell phone, wrote. This is probably not a transcription fail: "... you know he looks 12..." -- and that's what we want to know more about.

This reminds us a bit of when Alec Baldwin referred to his daughter as a "thoughtless little pig." Still, we have to imagine the transcription gods had their way with this dad's message because it seems like their relationship is solid.
