Those several moments of temporary paralysis just after you realize you just sent the filthiest joke / dirtiest pictures / inappropriate comment / via any electronic method, to the one person you would never want to.
Example A:
You: Looking at "Hot Bubbles.wmv" "That's hilarious, I'll send that to Bob"
*Click*
You sit there with your mouth open realizing you just sent it to Bob your BOSS, not your cool friend Bob.
You're screwed. You are a victim of Sender Paralysis (via IM / Email or Text). You can't move or speak.
Example B:
You: "Hi Mom yeah we had great weekend at the beach; I'll send some pictures, luv ya, bye."
You scroll through your phone and select a few shots and....
*Click*
you realize you just sent a picture of yourself pleasing your boyfriend on the ride home while while he's driving.
The look on your face frozen in terror is Sender Paralysis.
Usually subsides after a week of shame and humiliation. Take two laughing coworkers, a healthy dose of guilt from your Mom and call your shrink.
