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?

Oh... no...
Not me but a good friend of mine. Name's Andy, decent enough chap, but has a tendency to speak his mind. A lot. Anyway, we'd just started college, and being music students, were just being shown how to use the recording equipment in the studio, which, like all recording studios, has an adjacent session room, with a sorta windowy thang inbetween so the techies and the performance students can make obscene gestures at each other. So we're taken into the opposite room to look at the equipment when the resident college techie Dan walks into the opposite room, dithering about with leads as he usually does. Andy spots him and says, "I fookin hate that Dan. Ohhh what an A class TWAT. I bet he's a bummer." Dan looks up and gives a funny look at the small crowd of students, particularly at Andy. We think that this must be a coincidence, I mean, we're in different rooms which are both completely soundproof right? Wrong. "Errr Andy... there are mics in the corner. This is a recording studio. Dickhead." The look on his face was just one of complete shock. Funnily enough Dan's never mentioned anything, but dishes out a fair amount of dirty looks Andys way.
