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?

Well, not actually me
but an unfortunate friend called Mo - and it sorta fits the exact onosecond definition...

Mo used to work on a helpdesk shift rota, as he came towards the end of one of his late shifts he got an email from someone who required some assistance. Being tired and bleary (and a lazy shit to boot) Mo decided to forward the request to the poor sap who was about to start the next shift. Not wishing to appear totally uninterested, Mo added a few unhelpful lines of text and commented that this customer signed off his email with the word "Peace". "Maybe", mused Mo, "This twat thinks he's a nigger".

Oh Mo. Poor Mo, he could have died, if only he forwarded, instead of replied.

Bye Mo.
