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?

Do close calls count?
Once I sent an e-mail to everyone on my family address list with pictures of my husband and I in it. Except, being the lazy git that I am, instead of attaching them to the e-mail, I just sent them the URLs of the pictures on my server.
They were, of course, in the same open directory as various other pictures, including some I had sent my husband back when we were still just dating - wisely named things like "naked.jpg" and "tits.png."
About an hour or so later I was toddling around elsewhere on the internet when I realized what I'd done and frantically moved everything indecent into another folder. My parents, aunts and uncles were probably all at work - meaning my retired (and surprisingly web-savvy) grandparents were probably the only ones that could have received the e-mail by then.
If they found anything strange, they of course never brought it up. I hate having rampant paranoia!
