Irish student sends the cringiest 'wrong number' text of all time

We’re red-faced FOR her.

AH. THAT PANIC immediately after you send a text to a wrong number. It’s always terrifying, no matter how innocuous the text, right?

So imagine how Lauren Mahon, a student at the Ballyfermot College of Further Education, felt after sending this text to her college tutor instead of her friend.

Oh. Oh. ‘Please ignore’. Oh.

Thanks to Lauren for the pic

So THIS is what a pitbull-dachshund mix looks like>
