This is a question 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.
