TIFU by accidentally exposing myself to lead

I decided to post on here because i was listening to Smosh and Kallmekris around the time this went down. I'm ruffly 14-16 and very into the arts. I have been into making jewelry resently and have gotten some new jewelry wire. I have had a hard time using it as it isn't as thin as I'm used to, and the ends keep sticking out and poking me when I make something. So I when downstairs to the basement to look in my dad's workroom to see if I could find anything useful, also he wasnt home. It seemed like he was working on somthing with wire and somthing that I think is called a cheeseboard or somthing with board in it. I saw this metal wire and I wanted to know if it would melt since the other metal wire I had wouldn't. (I was trying to melt the other wire to fuse two ends of a ring together, also I was using my dad's heat gun) Point is it melted so I made two shapes out of the metal and melted it. They came out as two very imperfect charms both had holes i could lo...

TIFU by blacking out at a st pattys party and waking up in a completely different apartment

so this literally happened last night and im still trying to piece together what happened my friends and i went to a st pattys pregame last night (friday the 13th shouldve been my first sign lol) because we wanted to get the celebrations started early before the actual weekend. my roommate made these green jungle juice pitchers and they tasted like literally nothing. like straight up juice. so obviously i was drinking them like water i remember being at the pregame. i remember getting in an uber to go to a bar. and then i remember absolutely nothing i woke up this morning on a couch in an apartment i have never seen in my life. different furniture different layout different everything. i sat up and theres a girl i have never met eating cereal at the kitchen counter and she just goes “oh youre up. you kept saying you lived here so we just let you sleep” APPARENTLY i walked into the wrong apartment building entirely. not even the wrong unit the wrong BUILDING. somehow got through th...

TIFU by swearing in Italian

I made the impulsive decision to get BOTH my nipples pierced today in an Italian studio. I was going to get out to a cafe for a small meeting and that was it but I suddenly had this amazingly bright idea of going to a nearby studio and get my nipples pierced. No prior planning, just went out and decided. Just said “welp” and went there. Ive been there before to downsize my nose piercing a while ago so the people recognized me. Eventually, a girl came to me and told me that i could come in. I laid down, about cry of how scared I was… (Note that the pain was going to be PRETTY BAD ALREADY) Im Turkish and currently studying in English in an Italian university so im currently living in Italy while trying to learn Italian. As the needle went in, I was going to swear in Turkish but ended up screaming PORCODDIO (which roughly translates into “god is a pig”) and my languages got mixed up very much (which is a VERY offensive phrase in Italian) and the room next to mine went dead silent… Keep i...

TIFU - I didn't read my lease properly, so I'm probably losing my security deposit

So I screwed up 😅 We've been renting a townhome for almost 3 years now and finally found a place and house we want to live in. Well I didn't read my lease properly and they just handed me a "move out check list". This is where I fucked up. Apparently I wasn't supposed to paint (I completely missed that). I only painted one wall in the house (it was bright pink for my kiddo). I've since painted it back to the original color and you can't really tell, but you can kind of. Also apparently I wasn't supposed to patch any holes in the walls we made. I did that too. Their reasoning is we aren't professionals so it probably won't look nice. (Imo it does look nice, but I'm no expert 😅) Annnnnd I wasn't supposed to use wall anchors and I did. Granted I only used about 6, but still. 🤦🏻‍♀️ TL;DR - I can't read and screwed up in my apartment, so I'm probably losing my $2k security deposit. 😵‍💫🫠

TIFU by completely disregarding the effects of Xanax

A wild story I will try make short. Before the obvious is said - I recognize I have a drug problem and this is my fault). With that said enjoy this ‘sugar coated’ story. Some study calculus and some volunteer for the homeless. What do I do that makes me such an intelligent person. I binge coke with sole purpose of watching porn. Great dinner topic when the rest of the family are doctors and lawyers. Cocaine come downs are so brutal I can’t even describe. I learned that Xanax takes the whole come down and turns it into a beautiful sleep. Got some and it’s exactly what I did. But fuck I didn’t realize what else it bring - complete lack of thought. On Sunday (realizing I had work, but the xans will help me sleep) I opened by calculus book (coke and porn) and when I ran out I took 2 bars instead of one. All of a sudden I thought why not take some shrooms (which I don’t even like but on xans everything is carefree). Weighed out 2 grams, even though that’s a decent dose my stupid ass tho...

TIFU by accidentally stealing a hooker’s tip

This didn’t happen today, but years ago when my husband and I were still dating. First, some cultural context because this might not be the same everywhere. Where I’m from, hotels are normal hotels: you book a room, stay with your family, get breakfast, the usual stuff. Motels, however, are… different. They’re basically designed for couples who want privacy to have sex. Rooms are often decorated in very creative ways, the TV channels are mostly porn, and the food and drinks are ridiculously overpriced. You can just show up, rent a room for a few hours, and leave. They’re cheaper than regular hotels, so technically you can stay there just to sleep… but if you do, there’s a good chance you’ll hear the neighbors enthusiastically testing the structural integrity of the bed. Anyway. At the time, my boyfriend (now husband) and I worked at the same company. It was the end-of-year office party, and it went very late. We didn’t had a car, and public transportation stops running after a c...
