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?

text fun
Not sure if this counts cos it wasn’t 100% accidental…
Bestmate1 gets a new girlfriend, seems happy enough. Whilst out drinking, bestmate2 wants new girlfriends number to send stoopid drunk messages. I didn’t want to screw over bestmate1, but also knowing how bestmate2 is very persistent, I decided to give him a random number from my phone book. Bestmate2 saves number to his phone with new girlfriends name on it. Bestmate2 has a few more shots and forgets about it.
Next day chilling out in a café, bestmate 2 remembers, not wanting to screw over bestmate1, decides to send him the number as a text just so he knows he could have screwed him over.
Seemingly unimportant fact 1: bestmate2 has crap lg phone, when you send a number as a text, it doesn’t say where it came from
Seemingly unimportant fact 2: new girlfriends phone had recently died, so bestfreind1 knew (yet we didn’t) that new girlfriend was getting a new one.
Text shows up with a phone number and newgirlfrinds name, so he proceeds to send suitably gushy confessions of his love…
Gets really weird message in return…
Seemingly unimportant fact 3: the number I chose at random whilst drunk was a friend of mine who is rather gay, and rather partial to best friend1….
Awkwardness ensues.
