The OnosecondWired magazine once defined the 'onosecond' as the time between hitting 'send' and realising that you really didn't mean to send that to your granny.
What inappropriate email/text/photo have you sent to wrong people? Are they speaking to you any more?

On a related note...Where I used to work... one afternoon, the internal telephone line was ringing at the same time as the external one.
The chaps calling me from downstairs on the internal line had been messing around all afternoon with 'crank' calls, so was a bit pissed off with them to say the least.
Anyway, I grab the phone and bellow/scream "WHAT?!!!" down the line, expecting to suprise the guys downstairs on the other end of the internal line.
In actual fact, ended up utterly shocking the poor Italian chap on the end of the EXTERNAL line that I had just accidentally picked up!
Cue me pretending that I was clearing my throat and trying to sound nice-as-pie to my new client!
Worked out OK in the end... we did a big deal... and I got a nice shiny new Porsche as a bonus!
Length?... it's not the size of the nail... it's the hammer that drives it in!
