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?

Being dumped (and being a bit of a tool)
While fiddling with my voicemail options, I realised that you could send voicemails without actually ringing the person. Unfortunately, this epiphany came at a time when I was more than a little messed up after a nasty case of being dumped. I recorded a totally, totally embarrasingly pathetic message to my ex, loaded with all the rubbish, slightly delusional shit that runs through the average bloke's head on repeat after this kind of event.

In my defence, I never meant to send it; it was supposed to be some sort of cathartic, getting it all off my chest exercise, but instead of pressing "2" to delete it I pressed "1" to send it.

If I were a psychologist I'd probably realise that I wanted to send it all along and that far from being for my benefit only, I subconsciously wanted her to hear this crap, but in a way in which it was possible to distance myself from it. But I'm not a psychologist, so I don't.
