: QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Onoseconds - stuff you'd rather you hadn't sent
Each week we collect your stories, anecdotes
and lies into one handy place on the interweb.
Last week we asked you for the inappropriate
things you'd accidentally emailed and texted:
http://b3ta.com/questions/onoseconds/a few samples:
* "After spending what can only be described
as an extremely sordid night with a sexy
and utterly filthy young lady named Gemma,
I decided to cheer her up by texting her,
detailing everything I was intent on doing
to her the next time. Graphically. Grandma
was not amused to receive this. Not fully
understanding it and seeking guidance as to
the meaning of some of the content, neither
was my mother. My gran won't sit next to me
at family events any more." (dan j)
* "My friend teaches Judo to young kids.
During a drunken night out, someone got
hold of his phone and did the usual thing
of sending sexually explicit messages,
this time to his girlfriend. Except
his girlfriend was in his phone as 'Babe',
not 'Emma'. Emma was a 12 year old from
his Judo class. Next morning he had to
phone Emma's parents and explain that their
12 year old daughter may have received a
text message saying her judo teacher
wanted to shag her up the ass." (dr-kill)
* "After a major system crash and several
hours running round swearing, Boss sticks
his head round the door and says, 'Do us a
favour - send an on-screen message to all
users to let 'em know the computer's no
longer fucked.' So I did: 'ALL USERS:
COMPUTER NO LONGER FUCKED' We laughed.
Then, I dropped my coffee mug. It landed
on the Enter key. Our network had several
hundred users in many varied locations
round the world. I was no longer one of
them." (scaryduck)
We'd like to send our condolences to Hazey's
mate who managed to get "I've an arse-hole like
the back of Batman's car" to pop up over a
friend's presentation to his directors, and we
are slightly scared by Spastic Lequee's
admission that he "tends not to wank in
office stationery anymore."
