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?

2 bad ones
Very recently I was at a bar with some Belgian friends and some of their friends, one of whom was talking about their job.
N - "So what do you do?"
Belgian - "I look after children, like what you call it, err, err, I don't know the English..."
N - "Oh, you mean a childmolester...MINDER!! ChildMINDER..."
Absolutely genuine slip of the tongue. No idea where it came from. Cue wifey booting the shit out of my shins under the table.
Belgian (Looking like I'd shat in her Hoegaarden)- "No, Au pair."
N - (trying to hide embarrassment)"Oh yeah, but isn't that French?"
Other one's not so bad. I was 16 and round at a mates house. Had drunk LOTS of beer (8 cans back then was lots!) and it was time to go home.
N - "Where d'you live again?"
Mate - "Balshagray Avenue"
N - "(titter) Balshagray? Bal-SHAG-ray?" Right, where'sh phone, I'll try to remember it."
Taxi Co - "Hello, Glasgow Wide TOA"
N - "Hello, can I have a shag please..Oh, er, I mean...*click*"
