    Set my phone face-down on my leg for a moment while watching porn… the picture I was looking at was sent to 3 of my Snapchat contacts. I was able to delete 2 of the 3 before they were opened, but the guy who saw it was my ROOMMATE at the time and was IN THE NEXT ROOM.

    Hard to live down.

    When I was 13, I accidentally forwarded an email with a list of pretty obscene jokes to my prim and proper grandmother, who is blind. Apparently, her caretaker read them to her and she was shocked, but still got a laugh out of it. My mom was not as jovial about it.

    The day after the 2016 election, I sent an email to the guy who contracts most of my services. He’s also one of my best friends. It was in response to a job we were working on, so I cc’d his assistant.

    Basically said I was disappointed about the outcome of the election, then got into the job specifics.

    From his response, I knew I fucked up. He just said he was glad the election was over.

    I never liked his assistant anyways, but I looked up her voter registration and she’s Republican. And she’s totally the Trump type, though I hadn’t thought about it before.

    She’s been pretty much on the warpath for me ever since. I provide a great service at a good price, so she keeps me around. Plus some clients know me and would possibly revolt if I were taken off their jobs. I think she’s been disparaging me to them for any misstep that I make.

    I suspect she asks me for quotes and gives projects out to anyone who bids lower.

    This was never the case with my friend; if I made a bid too low or too high he’d ask me to requote it. Yes,** if he thought my bid was too low, he’d tell me to charge more.**

    Not so with this monster. She’s nickle and diming me for everything.

    And now my friend’s health has taken a turn for the worse, and she’s in charge.

    God I wish I never sent that stupid email.

    My sister and me have been no contact for the pasr 2 years when I suddenly got a text from here telling me she’s pregnant. I didn’t want to reply right away as I wanted to congratulate her while still making it clear it wouldn’t change anything about the current situation, and I needed some time to think about a way to express it that wouldn’t make me an asshole. That’s when I missclicked and hit the “ok” suggestion from my phone…

    I occasionally used to kill time reading pro revenge or similar stories. I use dark mode but sometimes do a CTRL-A to temporarily change the text colours. One day at work I was reading a story and apparently copied the text of a story to the clipboard. The story was the pasted into a message to several police service customers as well as my boss.

    Not my proudest moment by a long shot

    Queue several embarrassing phone calls to apologize to each recipient…
