Messaged into a work group chat of mainly men telling them all the details of my smear test! The group admin was female and called me a few times - I was lunching with a friend so ignored her calls for a few hours and only listened to her Voicemail at the end of the day! Mortifying and deleted for everyone without even looking at who had read it - I didn’t want to know!!

My boss was at a big industry event* *and sent an email saying how rubbish it was and what a waste of time, boring etc to the organiser, by mistake whilst he was still at the event. The person it was intended for had the same first name. I saw it in his sent items and tried to recall it ( which probably made it worse!). Then, worse , the organiser emailed him apologising for the event being rubbish!

Someone I know posted a video with a dildo shoved up her fanny. Was meant for someone she was messaging on Snapchat. Ended up on her story and she fell asleep.

she woke up and removed it at 11am the next day..

No no no no no.....nooooooooo
Oh my God I don't even know this person but I'm dying of mortification for them....
Oh

GOD!!!!!!

I've witnessed humans communicating for along time now and incorrect recipient emails and texts are always interesting. Mirroring and spy apps are on another level of jealousy and abuse though!

I sent a video message to my best friend. I’d just got out of the shower. Realised twenty mins later it’d gone to my work chat! My blood ran cold.

I once sent a text to my husband saying did I have to go to his mum and dad’s that evening as I couldn’t be arsed. Ended up sending it to his parents’ landline. His dad played it to me in the lounge, it was in a robotic voice.

My friend wiped her bum and she noticed the poo on the paper was in the shape of a love heart (she’s a nurse) so sent the pic to her sister and best friend only to realise she’d sent it on the work chat.

I once seen an awful picture on the Facebook group "rate my plate".
I never reply on those but it really was disgusting looking. And anyone who knows the group will understand that much of the time people purposely post awful photos for the banter.

I cant remember the exact wording but I said something like "you must really hate your family to serve them something that looks like it's been shit out"

Only it wasn't Rate my plate. It was my local slimmingworld group page.I'd misread and posted that in reply to a members photo of her actual dinner.

I only realised once the leader inboxed me and said I'd really upset one of her members and she had to delete the post.

I never went back there again. Absolutely fucking mortified. 🙈

Oh my goodness this one has just had me absolutely howling 😂😂😂😂 (probably because it’s the sort of thing I can imagine doing myself!!)

Before the days when DH and I were married and lived together I sent a message that was supposed to go to my husband to my boss (who I wasn’t at all very close to) by mistake. I think my DH had asked what I was up to and so my text said

‘I’m sat in bed eating raisins and watching Emmerdale’.

I didn’t even realise my mistake until my boss replied ‘erm ok??’.

This is by far the funniest one here 😂 so innocent and random

Owt · 26/06/2025 23:27

Mine isn’t as funny as some of these but I once text my then husband “dog has got diarrhoea, she’s shit all over the hallway twice”.

unfortunately I accidentally sent it to my boss who was then replied “sorry, are you ringing in sick?” Mortified

I have a friend who is always WhatsApp spamming me with links to all the depressing news stories on the day. All day, every day. My WhatsApp timeline is just a wall of depressingly shite news stories and he won't stop, no matter how many times I ask. Most of the stories I've either already read or don't have time to read and have told him this. Very infuriating.

Anyway, last year, he started off one Sunday with yet another link to a story about a hillwalker who'd got lost up a mountain with no phone signal, a broken hip and the weather closing in. He has to crawl 2 miles uphill to try and connect to a mast and call 999.

I was feeling a little impatient at once again being spammed another story I'd already read. So I responded along the lines of, "FFS, what is it with you and these morbid stories about ill-prepared dim-wits who get themselves stranded up hills and expect mountain rescue to drop everything to save them? I bet that fractured hip hurt like a motherfucker. He won't do that again!" Probably not my finest hour but it would have appealed to friend's sense of humour.

Anyway, turns out I really should have checked what window I was posting to. For once, it WASN'T my friend dropping that story on my WhatsApp feed but someone from my EXTREMELY poe-faced hillwalking club sharing an apparently 'heart-warming story of survival against the elements' with the hillwalking group chat. And I didn't realise for about half an hour. I

Oooh I know someone this happened to to- wonder if it's the same person! We were all trying to ring her when we woke to tell her to take it down but she was having a lie in! So mortifying!

I am so here for the typical Mumsnet pedantry about whether the post or dildo was removed at 11am. 😁

My best friend had fancied a man she worked with for months but he had a girlfriend. He eventually split with her and after another few weeks he asked out my friend. He asked her out by calling via FaceTime with the video switched on and they chatted for a while.

My friend called me straight after brimming with excitement, it was also FaceTime but just audio, the call was quite long during which she needed the toilet, she said she had to hang up because she needed a poo and didn’t want to poo whilst she was on the phone…

She hung up the phone to me and put her phone on the floor next to her feet with the screen facing upwards, what she didn’t realise was she hadn’t locked her phone after ending the call to me and had somehow been on her open calls list and redialled the man she fancied on FaceTime video again.

The call connected and he got a full view of her on the toilet, she then stood up to wipe her bum (yes some people do stand up) basically right over the camera so he got a full view of her wiping her bum.

The kindest thing would have been that he didn’t mention what had happened and just cancelled the date, unfortunately he seemed to believe she’d done it deliberately as some sort of weird kink and sent her a text detailing exactly what he’d seen and how disgusted he was.

We laugh now but at the time it nearly destroyed her, she left her job and was so mortified about it, she was also paranoid about who he had told and didn’t go out for ages.

I think that’s far worse then sending a wrong text!

Not as bad as some of these, but sent a detailed shopping list to my boss's teenage son once, specifying "the good cheese, not that shit one you always buy".

This is my favourite one so far 🤣🤣
