Have you ever screwed up a text somebody due to ducking autocorrect? Oops, you know what we meant.
Well, it seems it's happened to almost everyone after people took to Twitter to reveal their embarrassing text moments!
Jimmy Fallon asked people to partake in his latest hashtag game called #TextFail and the results are phenomenal.
Here are ten of our faves:
