TIFU by putting antifungal cream on

Last weekend we went to a music festival. I went right from work, and I was wearing jeans. It was hot and muggy and I was “basting in my own gravy”. Fast forward to Sunday night around midnight. I’m heading upstairs, bleary eyed and tired, and my nether regions are starting to itch. I grab the antifungal from my bathroom bag as a precaution and begin to spread it all over my man-parts. A few seconds in, it starts to burn. Then the smell hits me… something minty fresh. I look down at the tube on the sink and its… toothpaste! As I look up, the 4’x5’ mirror over the vanity reflects my shame. I’m standing in the bathroom, naked, at midnight, with Colgate spread all over my nether regions TL;DR: Grabbed toothpaste instead of antifungal cream, slathered Colgate all over my genitals

TIFU by recording silence over part of my grandparents' wedding tape

My family has been clearing out my grandma's house and we found a box of old cassette tapes. Most were unlabeled, but one had my grandparents' wedding date written on it. I offered to digitize everything and borrowed an old dual cassette deck from a friend since he had one sitting around. Before transferring anything to my computer, I figured I should make a physical backup of the important tape first, just in case something went wrong. I put a blank cassette in Deck 1 and the wedding tape in Deck 2. For some reason I had convinced myself Deck 2 was the source. It wasn't. I hit the dubbing button and walked away. About 25 minutes later I came back and realized Deck 2 was the recording deck. I'd been recording the blank cassette over the original wedding tape. That section apparently had my grandfather giving a speech and my grandma's dad talking. Both of them have been gone for years. My mom isn't angry, which somehow makes it worse. She just got q...

TIFU by hanging a candy bowl on my dorm door

I work at a crafts store, and we started selling foam carvable pumpkins. Recently, I returned one of these pumpkins because the customer noticed it had a dent in it. Since it was considered unsellable, my manager let me keep it. I turned the pumpkin into a candy bowl that hangs on the door (you could probably find what I’m talking about if you google it), and I hung it on the door. My RA is a bit strict about these things, so I brought her to come check it out and she told me it was fine. I had been filling it with wrapped fun-size candy for the past couple of days, and there were no issues. Recently, I put in Peanut M&M’s, and I received a knock on my door later that day. It was my RA, and she told me that I was seriously endangering students who have peanut allergies. I apologized and told her that I’d take it down immediately, but she told me that this was considered a violation and she wrote a formal incident report. I haven’t heard anything back yet. TL;DR: I received an...

TIFU Maggot Cup

I had way too much vacation time saved up, so I decided to take a week off of work. The Friday before my days off was really hectic and busy as I rushed through all of my work so I could leave as soon as possible. In my haste, I left a small amount of coffee and milk in my coffee mug on my desk. I didn't notice before I locked my office and left. That was on September 18th. Today I get to work at 4:30 in the morning and all I can think about is making my cup of coffee. Upon opening my door I am hit with a wall of stank. I think to myself, "I'm not dealing with that until I've had my morning coffee." Also, "Hehe, that's a problem for future me." Upon grabbing my coffee mug, I realized that the future was now and I am, in fact, dealing with it before I've had my morning coffee. Introducing drum roll Maggot Cup! I didn't like Maggot Cup when I first met it. Which I suppose is somewhat sad since I am it's maker. I look in horror upon ...

TIFU by removing all my clothes for a massage from my sweet old masseuse.

So I've been going to this sweet Thai masseuse since 2021. She's somewhere between 60 and 70-years-old. Honestly, she's getting a bit frail and her wrists are clicking at times and the massages aren't what they used to be, but I didn't have the heart to change her. She and her husband give me that grandparent-y feel while I'm there. I buy massages in advance using a loyalty card and we always have a fun little argument because I offer to pay more. Sigh, all this makes it so much worse. I don't know if naked massages are even a normal thing, but I've I've worn underwear for every massage. I've also gone to other masseuses before her and always wore underwear. I was pretty much clear on that. Underwear stays on. Recently I've been sleeping without clothes on because why not? It feels better. I think it helps with blood circulation or something and I live alone. I'm getting used to taking it all off and lying down on my bed. Been doin...

TIFU by eating a whole tub of my gfs baking icing while playing Mortal Kombat the day before a wedding😭

So yeah this happened last night and I still feel kind of big back af Context, im 19 and live up in Shamattawa with my gf (18). If you know anything about the north, grocery hauls are a big deal because everything is expensive and hard to get. My gf had this specific tub of Betty cream cheese icing jar with the red lid she was saving to bake a cake for her sisters birthday next week. Anyway she went to her aunties for a quick visit so I was just chilling at my PC playing Mortal kombat i got a suddenly urge to eat sugar lmao, went looking for a snack and found the icing. Thought honestly ill just take like one scoop she wont even see. Bro I dont even know what happened. Every time the loading screen popped up I took another scoop By the time I lost a match I looked down and the whole damn tub was empty. 16 ounces of straight sugar just gone. Like 20 mins later my stomach started hurting so bad. Felt like a literal tsunami wave sittin my gut. Right when I heard her walk thru ...
