Your best 'worst' Google Voice transcription errors

Last week, we shared three of our wackiest mistranscribed voice messages from Google Voice and asked you to pass along the funniest flubs from your own in-box. Your hilarious samples poured in through comments and e-mails. We've rounded up some fine specimens of voice mail meanings that were definitely lost in translation in our gallery.

Best 'worst' Google Voice transcription errors--screenshots

In defense of Google Voice, computer-aided transcription technology is still maturing. While Google Voice's engine doesn't get it right all the time--or even most of the time in our case--it's better than nothing. At the very least, it produces amusing gems like the ones in our collection.

Scroll through the comments for more choice voice-to-text slip-ups and read about a fee-based alternative visual voice mail transcription to Google Voice, BT's Ribbit, that promises to get transcriptions right and doesn't require an invitation to join.

Am I the only one on the planet concerned by services which promote the fact that they listen in on your phone calls and keep records of them?

do they listen in?
when the major phone companies were illegally allowing the feds to listen in during the bush years, obama granted them amnesty.
your privacy wasn't intact in the last administration and it isnt now. at least google has been known to demand a court order... sometimes.

It would be a lot funnier if you included what the actual message was...
