To accident send an instant message or zephyr to someone other than the person for whom the message was intended.

Mixing is often a sign that the mixer is multi-tasking, and/or is hosed.
Mixes have been known to cause arguments, breaking-up, and other trauma as well as a lot of amusement. Some communities and zephyr classes use a rating system for mixes, based on their amusement value and on the steamyness of the supposedly-confidential content.
