The Onosecond
Wired 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?

September 17th, 2001
A friend of mine had sent a huge group email, just after the September 11th awfulness, just a general hi-how-are-you-all message.
I knew about 8 people on the email list, so thought I would share a reasonably funny September 11 joke.
I knew none of them would be offended. Wasn't trying to make light of anything, it's the way people cope sometimes...
So I typed my stuff.
Did I remember to edit the list of recipients?
Did I arse.
Sent it to 30 people.
20 of whom lived in New York.
Oh fucking hell.
As soon as I hit send I had that horrible, horrible feeling like I had just - well, hit send, with no hope of undoing the damage...
Still feel terrible.
Joke +was+ funny, though.
