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?

« Go Back

Morning panic
I wrote an email to my boss one night (when extremely pissed, of course) having a right old go at him, ending the email with "you are a cunt". I pressed send, and it sat there for a while, then came back with an unable to send message. Not realising my good fortune at this point, I stubbornly pressed send again, but the fates saved me once again.

I had my onosecond when I came too the next morning, and ran downstairs to check the PC. What a relief when I realised that it hadn't been sent. I tried sending a test email and it worked fine. I am now a religious man.
