I so relate to this as I am always doing spoonerisms – it can be very embarrassing, like I once got Friar Tuck mixed up when I was 11 years old. It is a restaurant and I shouted out we are going to Tr….. F….. tonight! I am certainly not perfect!

Good article Ari, and good on you for admitting your fallibility. If I came across as high and mighty, I apologize too, for that was not my intent. It takes a lot of courage to come out and say what you did, and I forgive you. I’m not nerfect either. None of us are.

Julie, it’s funny you should mention that since I recently installed the “Undo Send” feature via Gmail Labs. It’s helped me a few times already from sending emails to the wrong people! Not to mention the “Mail Goggles” feature, I’m sure that’s helped more than enough people already.

Nice, Ari…For me, it’s often a situation of acting on emotions, in the heat of the moment. In the old days, we wrote a letter and after it was done we had time to think, ‘Hey, I feel better now! I don’t even need to send that letter.’ But there’s no trip to the mailbox online – we react, respond and hit send. If only all of the ’send’ and ‘publish’ buttons added an extra, ‘Are you totally and completely and truly sure that you want to send that?’ step…we’d all be a little bit *more* perfect.

Thanks for writing this…
Julie

Ari,
The only wat for me to have been able to point out your mistake was to have made it myself before. As a wise man said “those who forget the past are condemmed to repeat it.”
Here’s to learning from our pasts. Well done!
