People Share The Dumbest Things They've Ever Done With The Whole Internet

Forks in the microwave, house keys left at the airport in another country... what's the dumbest thing you've ever done?

Some people make one tiny mistake and then spend years cringing about it. In this case, the mistake was as simple as an email sign-off, and it landed with maximum embarrassment.

The story starts with a woman who was used to sending affectionate messages to her long-distance boyfriend, then accidentally carried that habit straight into a work email to her boss. That kind of reflex is harmless in one context and wildly awkward in another, which is exactly why it stuck in her memory.
