There is a very specific type of modern panic that comes from hitting “send” and then realizing what you actually wrote. And in the age of the internet, our horrible, misspelled, and embarrassing messages can be saved, screenshotted, or otherwise recorded for posterity.
The “Screenshots of messages that probably shouldn’t have been posted” Facebook page is home to all the texts, SMS messages, and emails that really exemplify why an “unsend” button could be useful. So get comfortable, prepare yourself for some thoughts that perhaps should have been left unsaid, and get to scrolling. Be sure to upvote your favorites and comment your thoughts below.
