TIFU by thinking a song was about me.

So this is in fact something that happened *today*. In fact I only just got off the climax of this story. This story requires a small amount of backstory. I am a non professional voice actor, I love doing voice work for small projects and rarely get paid, but it's something I'm relatively good at and I'm able to do all sorts of fun stuff with my voice. I also run TTRPG games, several right now, but it's one of my hobbies that has become one of my passions. This story is about one particular group. I was listening to my spotify "For You Weekly" or whatever when I heard this amazing bop of a song with this phenomenal vocalist that at first I was like "hahahahah, dang, this could be about me" and I started to listen to it, I realized it was about me. Like, I ended up listening to it on repeat a few times, making note of the lyrics and it was a girl confessing to her crush and the references were one to one inside jokes I have with one of my TTR...

TIFU by misinterpreting my GF fluster with hunger

Obligatory, this did not happen to day (happened yesterday evening). For context, I have only ever been in one other relationship before in my life, and that was years ago, and it never got physical in any sense. So I (27 M) recently got together with my GF (21 F), and we are still in the early stages of our relationship. As we were spending time together it was starting to get late. So I figured we might each need to head back and get some sleep. I'm paraphrasing a bit, but I asked her if I could give a her goodnight kiss in advance, to which she looked at me and said "kiss me". I leaned in and gave her a kiss on the forehead, held it for a bit, then leaned back out. My GF looked at me with somehwhat expectant eyes and said "no, KISS me", to which I was like "Ah". I got a bit flustered since we haven't gotten to kiss on the lips yet at this point in our relationship, but I went for it, and in that moment I felt like I experienced the culmi...

TIFU by walking into my friend's room

So today I was in my hostel. Two rooms share the same connected balcony, and my good friend lives in the other room. We usually hang out together, and he sometimes comes into my room, mostly to smoke. He had also left his lotion and flashlight (he is active like daily jerking and horny I say most of the day) in my room because he wanted to keep them hidden from his roommate, so he came over earlier to get them. Today, I was in the washroom when he called me, but my phone was in my room, so I didn't hear it. About five minutes later, I came out and went to the balcony to see what he wanted. His door was slightly open, just a few centimetres, so I walked in without knocking. And then I suddenly saw him lying on his bed, aggressive masturbating I literally froze for a few seconds like, “What the fuck did I just see?” As soon as I realized what was happening, I quietly closed the door and left. He noticed that I had seen him, and I immediately went back to my room, completely shoc...

TIFU by sniffing the gas tank of my old moped.

So, I have this old moped that has just been sitting around for about a month now since the last time I actually fueled it up or rode it. Because it had been sitting idle for a while, I realized I needed to check on the petrol situation before trying to start it up again. For some genius reason, my brain figured that the gas inside the tank might have gone completely bad or stale over the last few weeks. I thought to myself, "Hey, if it went bad, it probably smells absolutely terrible right now." Instead of just looking inside or doing literally anything else, I decided the best course of action was to lean all the way in, open it up, and take a massive, deep sniff right out of the open gas tank. Immediately, the fumes hit me like a brick wall. I instantly recoiled and was like, "Oh fuck, I really should not have done that." It was a terrible mistake. The instant regret was very real, and I ended up paying the ultimate price for my curiosity with a massive, th...

TIFU by blistering the crap out of my hands

I (45m) took my boys to the State Fair. In the carnival rides we found one called the Tornado… which is a variation of those rides where you hold the center wheel and spin yourself as the ride goes (one of my favorite rides to do since I can’t really do the crazy rides anymore). The wheel was a little textured but it seemed good to grab and spin. So we spun real fast from the start (mainly me)… I dragged it to stop, then the other way. Then stopped and back the first direction. Got off the ride and my one hand was a little sore. Giant 1” plus blister, wrinkled skin on my palm. Similar on the other hand but that one was ripped open. Smaller blisters on both thumbs, 2 more fingers… 6 in all. Took a bee line straight to the first aid center for bandages. TLDR. Tried to spin like mad on a carnival ride and earned blisters all over my hands and fingers

TIFU by flaking on a friends bday dinner and now I’m $80 poorer

I (18M) said I could maybe come to the dinner like 2.5 weeks ago. I found it a little strange because this is a pretty high end restaurant inside another high end hotel. Also we haven’t known each other all that long but we call to talk and interact on social media. I realized I couldn’t attend earlier this week, and told him the day of. The restaurant has an $80 no show policy per person so I felt obligated to reimburse my friend. They made the booking for 15 ppl, told me 3 other ppl aren’t coming, asked me and my sibling to come to compensate ( they expected me to come, so they’d still have to pay for 2 ppl, so still 75). I don’t have a ride, I’m going on a trip with my family tomorrow morning and Uber/Lyft is $100+ both ways. I cannot drive. I was really hoping a family member with a car would have their schedule free up, but I realized today that’s not happening. I don’t have a job right now, so this really sucks. I’m ashamed to admit (more? yeah ik I’m a pos) that I’m consider...
