EWI




E-mailing While Intoxicated

Online jargon, also known as text message shorthand, used primarily in texting, online chat, instant messaging, email, blogs, and newsgroup postings, these types of abbreviations are also referred to as chat acronyms

Similar to "drunken dialing" and "drunk driving," this is when a user sends an e-mail message after he or she has had too much alcohol to drink (and regrets hitting the send button the next day).For example, "You should've seen the e-mail he sent me after the party. I'm citing him for an EWI."
