TIFU By asking my Sister to watch our brother while I rested…

TL;DR: After Dog sitting for almost a month, Watching my cousin and brother together, and now having to dog sit again i am burned out so i asked my sister to watch my brother and all she did was make him miserable. ———————————————————— 19M, I’ll do almost anything for money if someone asks. That’s just the kind of man i am. Sorry for word vomit, I am upset. Last month I was watching my stepdads dogs for money, they weren’t hard to watch but one of them was extremely energetic. Immediately after that was done my little brother was coming back home after being with my aunt for almost a year since my mom was overseas and I was in college (graduated yay). It actually inter lapped for a few days. In exchange for this favor she wanted my mom to watch my cousin, she then offered me money to watch both if them and I said sure because I didn’t want her stressed. I really want to take the burden off my mom so I started helping more. To be clear my brother isn’t the issue, he’s 6 and my...

TIFU by not using my abs properly and messing up my hips

Three things to know : I weightlift often, I have no abdominal definition, I go to physical therapy a lot. I've been fairly athletic for about 5 years, turning myself around with regular running and weightlifting. I always include ab work in the routine, planks and crunches and stuff. 3 years ago I started doing long distance running and I ran a half-marathon after preparing for 2 months. After the race I noticed developing knee pains, so I started physical therapy to strengthen my support muscles. Immediately the therapist noticed a lack of hip flexor developed but we focused on quads. The results were mixed but sufficient, and I also got some insoles to help my posture. Then a few months ago I turned to a more strength-training oriented workout. Lots of squats, deadlifts and bench presses. One day as I'm warming up my hips give out beneath me. I'm back in physical therapy, now working on hip mobility and core stability. Once again, my therapist sees that I have n...

TIFU by accepting Hero treatment as a blood donor of relatively rate blood group, only to find out my blood group was actually different

Obligatory this didn't happen today, but back during my college years. Back in college, there was a blood donation drive on campus. I donated for the first time, and on my way out they told me I was A+. A few months later a close friend's aunt was in critical condition and needed A+ blood. I volunteered immediately. When I got to the hospital, I was treated like royalty. The family was in tears, thanking me, practically force feeding me food while we waited. The nurse drew my blood and told me to wait while they confirmed the match. I sat there soaking up the royal treatment, everyone fussing over me like I was some kind of hero. About an hour later, the nurse came back looking thoroughly confused and said, "Wait. Did you not know your blood type? You're B+." I have never wanted to disappear from a room faster. Probably the most embarrassing moment of my life 😭 TL;DR: A college blood drive volunteer told me my blood type was A+. Months later, I accep...

TIFU by letting the right guy get away because it was the wrong time and I was ashamed of my living situation.

Well, this is probably going to be a long post but here is a little bit of back story with me (33) and B (33) Both myself and B have known each other since high school but we went to different schools. Graduated in 2010. Him and I would fine ways to see each other to fool around and hangout, it was hard to make that happen because at the time neither one of us had a car. You know, normal horney, carless high school kid stuff. Back then, when we would get into relationships, we would cut contact out of respect for each others partners. Timing never seem to work out with us being single so we never really got a chance to test things out and to see where it went. Thinking back at it now, that was probably for the best as we both had no idea about life. Also at this point it truly was just a VERY strong physical and sexual attraction. Now fast forward to about 2019/2020, we both ended up moving out of state and ended up within 10 hours of each other and at this point both of us have...

TIFU by microdosing raw chicken all day

We had chicken and sausages in the fridge that I'd forgotten to freeze and needing using in the next few days. Found a recipe online for a casserole and got it all cooking this morning. Meat was seared in a pan with red wine brought to a simmer and then I put it in the slow cooker for the rest of the day. Whenever I went into the kitchen I gave it a stir and tried a little sip of the sauce. Delicious. Come tea time, I go to stir again and think it's a bit cool... Turns out when I'd relocated the slow cooker from one side of the kitchen to the other, after about 30 mins, I'd forgotten to turn the plug on. It was hot enough at first to stay warm enough for me to not notice. But this warm, half-cooked meat has been sitting on the side for 6 hours while I occasionally sipped it. Now ordering a takeaway because I don't trust cooking it now and I'm trying to decide if I'm shaky because I haven't eaten much today or if salmonella's taking hold 🤦‍♀️...

TIFU by choking on cough medicine.

So I’ve got the flu and I’m necking a 10ml shot of cough medicine while my girlfriend (23F) lies next to me. Out of nowhere she goes, “That’s one fat baby,” mid swig of this medicine… Sleep-deprived brain decides the perfect comeback is “I’m not that fat” — and delivers it mid-swallow. Cue instant regret. I laugh at my own genuinely unfunny joke, the medicine goes down wrong, and I’m suddenly choking, sticky cough syrup spraying everywhere, sprinting to the bathroom convinced I’m about to be sick. I didn’t even find it that funny. I just have a gift for shit one-liners that only I laugh at, apparently badly enough to nearly kill myself over. TL;DR: made a rubbish joke back at my girlfriend mid-sip of cough medicine, laughed at myself, choked, nearly puked
