TIFU by blaming my necklace for stabbing my neck when it was actually a wasp 😭

So today we were playing together in the gym at the psichiatric clinic and while I was playing I started having this very strong pungent pain in my neck and I immediately thought it was because I kept my necklaces on and I probably cut myself with them moving. So I went to the toilet and saw a red dot but blood wasn’t coming out and that was weird considered the pain but I just said I was gonna take a break and watched the other play telling myself I was kinda dumb to have kept my jewels on but also I’m used to train in the gym with weight and there usually you don’t risk much if you leave your necklaces on. After a while a girl was in pain and very agitated I asked her what’s up and she said a wasp stung her, I was very worried cause I was always scared of wasp sting but I never got one so as soon as I saw a wasp I went and killed it and told her she was avenged. Then the trainer came with another wasp he killed and said “sorry we are going there is a nest in the gym” and there I...

TIFU by buying from a seller that I previously gave a unfavourable review

Before I start: I know in my head that this is not a big deal, but my nervous system doesn't, so I am trying to regulate the stress by writing it down here. Maybe you find joy in my "suffering". I (25f) am a collector. I collect all kinds of weird stuff, but one of my biggest collections is bones. Mostly animal skulls, like sheep, cat, fox and alot of deer skulls. It started with a fox skull that someone gifted me seven years ago, and my collection has grown since. It is not huge, but big enough for people to ask me if I am a hunter and then get weirded out when I tell them I am not. Although I try to find my own remains, I haven't had much luck so I get most of my skulls second hand from a website, that is like ebay but for just my (very small) country. Since I stared my bone collection, it has been my dream to get my hands on a horse skull. I don't really know why, I don't particularly like horses and my bf hates them with a burning passion (don't ...

TIFU by mowing with the same lawnmower blade for 10 years

TIFU by mowing with the same lawnmower blade for 10 years that was progressively getting duller over time I live in the southern US in the suburbs and I’ve been increasingly frustrated with my mower to the point that I dread mowing each week. I’ve even been considering paying someone $220/month to mow my yard. Anyways I had a brainwave and got out the angle grinder and sharpened the blade. When I mowed today I was able to go 2 notches lower than I would normally have with about 25% of the frustration I would normally have! Now the plan is to go ahead and by a new blade that’s super sharp from the factory so hopefully it’s even better. Tl;dr Realized my lower blade hadn’t been sharpened in the 10+ years I’ve had the mower and could have saved my self so much frustration!

TIFU rejected a girl because she got her periods

​ TIFU 9th grade, friend group of 4. me, my friend, and a pair of twins. we never really studied, just bullshitted in class all day and somehow became really tight because of it. used to sit in pairs too, me and my friend on one bench, the twins either right in front or behind us. both twins confessed to both of us on the same day btw. anyway. lunch break. my friend and the other twin had gone off somewhere, so it was just me and her alone in the classroom. totally normal conversation and then out of nowhere she goes "(my name) i like u a lot like a lot lot" i went blank. completely blank. i had never seen her that way and my brain just didn't know what to do with that information. so i got up and walked out. didn't say anything. she was telling me to wait but i didn't. and the thing is, when i got outside, i wasn't even thinking about her or how badly i'd just handled that. my brain randomly jumped to this thing that happened a few years...

TIFU by telling my boss i greened out

i (F20) have been working at this high end resort in the retail shop for a little over a month now. this was my first job at a retail store so i made some mistakes as i was learning, so i think she’s not my biggest fan. my coworker who i’ll call annie (who i work with for basically all my shifts) is my age, but much better at her job and super outgoing, so my boss loves her. today, annie was stressing because she was going to have dinner with her boyfriend’s extended family tonight. i wanted to comfort her, so i said “well, like, the second time i met my boyfriend’s grandma i greened out”. my boss didn’t know what greening out meant, so i explained to her, basically outing myself as a stoner (which is very hushed up around here). i thought i was good because she didn’t really say anything, but at the end of my shift after annie left she said, “i doubt you’ve worked that many jobs since you’re young, but you should never say how high you are. i could have had you written up for that. ne...

TIFUupdate: the salmonella pigeon thing

you guys are so fun on this hellsite. I did wash my hands every time. I do normally carry gloves in my bag. both instances happened in extreme heatwaves which might be why any other time I was completely fine. stop screaming about me killing people because of a personal mistake. a first year med student does not have any access to patients. I am 17 years old and do not personally think this one instance of stupidity means I’m doomed for the rest of my days. as i said, lesson learned. the fact that I’m posting this on here is because I UNDERSTAND how I fucked up. you don’t need to lecture me about it. I just find it stupid how I ignored my usual safety protocols in hopes of it all working out and it clapped back so hard. TL;DR: kindly fuck off
