You know that moment where you press send on an email and then desperately, desperately regret your decision?
Like maybe you wrote a long, drunken email to an ex... or an overly decorative brown-nosing email to a professor.
If you say you haven't, well... you're lying.
Since we all know you've definitely experienced the excruciating moment of regret when you wished with your entire being that you could un-send an email, we bring you this phenomenal news.
Now, with a new feature on Gmail, you can un-send an email.
Problem with #undosend is, it only goes back 30 seconds. I need one that will unsend emails going back to at least 2003.

For a limited timeframe, at least.
The trick is this: you have to enable the feature in your Gmail settings, and then indicate whether you'd rather have your emails delayed by 5, 10, 20, or 30 seconds.
And if you're especially prone to the "Oh no I spelled a word wrong!" moment, you should probably choose the 30-second option.
Make sure to enable this function in your Gmail preferences, then check out the amazing video below on the topic everyone's buzzing about right about now.
