TIFU by telling that my friend is stupid

Today I told out loud that my friend is stupid and now I feel guilty and sad. I have health problem. So, I made appointmet at hospital. I don't feel my toes very well. I always work first shift. It ends at 2PM. Appointment was at 3PM. I usualky travel with bus to home. Company pays bus. I made a friend in that company. He is good person and my good friend. And when he works first shift, we go with his car. Today I took two coffies one for me, one for him and asked him, if we can go together with his car after work and, if can wait for me 5-10 minutes, if I am late. I just wanted to wash my feet, because I didn't have time to go home, take a shover and go to hospital. I was in changing room a little bit longer and he called me. I got annoyed, because he always calls me, if I am in changing room and I am late. So, I told out loud: "He is stupid." and answered the phone,I turned on the speaker and told him, that I will come in few minutes. I didn"t know th...

TIFU by hooking up with a redditor & now i have to buy a new tire

So I post on reddit every now and then to find people to hang out with or things to do in my city. I usually just go to a local bar or something with them and see where the night goes. I’ve been trying to work on being more open & spontaneous so when a guy who had been asking to spoil & worship me (🚩) asked me to spend the night with him on the beach I agreed. Let’s just say that there were soooo many red flags but i was trying to work on being more positive. He says he’ll pay for my gas,food,drinks,the hotel, & give me $100 on top (🚩 not completely a red flag but also i’m not a SWer so the extra $100 part is a little odd) I start the hour and a half drive and stop 5 minutes in for drinks & condoms (that he asked me to get & said he’d pay for) I forget walmart doesn’t take tap and i can’t find any of my cards so i leave with nothing (the universe trying to get me to go home) Anyway i’m getting too detailed, I would keep asking him for $$ to prove he was real...

TIFU by chasing a feeling.

I am still coming to terms with the outcome of this situation. I think I just need a place to vent about it all without shame, though I think it will come out sounding a little juvenile. This whole thing starts when my online friend and I joined a discord server together in the hopes of making some new friends. This discord had a modded Minecraft server with an active community, and we both thought we'd join and play and have some fun. My friend got to the server first and got started playing Minecraft and meeting the people we'd be playing with. She told me pretty early on that she had found this guy on the server that she wanted to flirt with simply as something fun to do, and to get resources off him in the game. Frankly, I'm not a fan of this kind of behavior as I think people can get their feelings hurt pretty quickly, but she was having fun, so I wasn't going to stop her. Flash forward to when I can finally join the server and start playing. I met the guy a co...

TIFU by feeding some birds

Today I experienced something I was hoping would never happen. A bunch of teenagers walked by me while I was in the grass outside my apartment patio, and one of them pointed in my direction and audibly asked her friends "... Is that a cat on a leash?" Yes, my friends. It was. I have 3 cats and one of them likes to parkour over my patio gate, so I have a leash and harness just for her, so I can let my cats on the patio and make a damn coffee without having to chase after one sneaky cat before I'm even prepared the face the world. Don't worry she's still supervised. I've rescued her from looking like a failed bungee-jumper about 3 times. She is always unamused. It's hilarious. On this occasion I happened to see some birds in the nearby tree and wanted to toss them some bird seed, and I thought to myself... I suppose I could take the cat along. What's the harm? Tl;Dr: I never thoight I'd end up here, but here I am. Went to feed some birds and ...

TIFU Ended up at the wrong French Village 400km away from our real destination.

This happened very recently. My wife and I pet and house sit all over Europe (saves on accommodation) and we usually drive to our sits. So I pack the car, get all things sorted, lock the house, jump in the car, plug in the destination into the cars sat nav and head off. We have a very long drive ahead of us (11 hours) and we are heading to the French Pyrenees. After the long drive both my wife and I are looking forward to meeting our hosts and having a welcome meal and the usual tour and introduction to the pets (2 cats in this instance). Anyway it’s starting to get dark and we entered the village working our way through the narrow streets and the satnav says our destination is in 200 meters on the left. We look at the building and it’s a church. WTF. We call our hosts to check the address and after a bit of back and forth we realise we are in the WRONG VILLAGE! Village has the same name as the village we were meant to go to…..sigh.. Double check your cars sat nav folks. TLDR: ...

TIFU by not realising that Reddit comments are visible on Google

I’ve been in the process of setting up a website for my floral design business. It’s taken a while to get it looking exactly how I want for my potential clients, and it's finally all live now! So this morning I searched my name on Google just to double check that it actually showed up in the results and that people could find me. Luckily it does show up! But instead of just my nice new website, Google also decided to index my Reddit account right below it. Here is what every prospective bride is currently greeted with when they search my name. "Destination wedding floral designer. I'm 34 and still get occasional panic attacks 🙃" It was a comment in a thread about crashing out when thinking of the concept of death 😆 To be honest it does give a good overview of me 🙃 But it’s probably not the calm, in control vibe you want to give off to clients paying for luxury events. Obviously everything is now hidden, but it did give me a really good laugh to ...
