You see what I did there?

In the technological age, it seems as if a lot of communication is self-censored (e.g. a person can edit and re-edit an e-mail before sending, texts allow people to have emotional conversations with the ability to process the other person’s last comment before responding). It’s not to say that all electronic communication is metered, but there seems to be more ability in that respect.

Anyways, what if this were not the case? What if people couldn’t edit and rethink what they sent via electronic communication anymore?

Social repercussions, hilarious anecdotes, and world-ending scenarios are all welcome.
