TIFU by (almost) knocking over an elder lady while at the gym

Hi I’m a 19 years old girl. I’m extremely short. And there’s a machine at the gym that people can adjust the height of, and the last person who used that machine put the handle very high so I tried to jump to reach it and I grabbed it but I slipped and fell and hit my arm very hard with the machine and then again against the floor and I was like ouchie ouchie so I stretched my leg in pain and I didn’t notice there was an elder lady behind me that had just arrived and I accidentally pushed her with my leg and she kind of tripped backwards but THANK GOD THANK GAWD she didn’t fall😭😭😭😭I was so embarrassed and she was so nice she kind of giggled about it. But imagine she actually fell and hit her head and died because of me omg TL;DR I slipped while trying to reach something at the gym and accidentally shoved an old lady with my leg

TIFU

I put a three balls in my ass and two came out but Im wondering could it come out on its own or should I go to er because I dont want to go to er. Mind the fact I dont want to explain my stupid choice to my parents or the doctors cause im embarrassed and would rather get advice from people that I'll never see in my life. and honestly im really fucking scared. So as of now im sitting on my bed and so if i can wait it out is there anything i should do. and if there is anything i should do would it be laxatives. And if I should go to the er now what should I say to my parents and the doctors that "i fell on it" cause i know nobody is gonna believe that. And i dont feel pain nor sick. And im just fucking scared right now. TL;DR: so what so should I do to fix my dumb mistake

TIFU by asking about my friend's deceased grandmother

My friend's grandma passed a month ago. I always checked in with her because I know how close she was to her. I was talking with her on the phone and just out of the blue, asked her how her grandma was doing. She answered but almost immediately I thought "didn't her grandma pass?". A few days later it hit me, she absolutely did. I texted my friend and apologized profusely. She explained that she answered to not make me feel bad, which I appreciated so much but I now feel horrible knowing how much that probably hurt her! Not making excuses but I am on anti seizure medication which has affected my memory extremely! This is the only reason I can come up with to forget such important information. I have apologized again and again (probably annoyingly) but am afraid it messed up our relationship. Any advice? TL;DR: I forgot my friend's gma passed and asked her about her health. Now idk if our friendship is ruined.

TIFU by Boiling a Goat’s Head in our swanky kitchen.

The headline will make you think I’m a Satanist, but I have a perfectly plausible explanation. This was from the Spring of 2022. Stay with me here. It started with my buddy Dan who is an old friend and who kinda-sorta got stuck here during the pandemic (He lives in Hong Kong) and now live in my guest house (It's a long story) Anywho, Dan is an expert arborist whose affinity for cacti and succulents coalesced with our need for low water xeriscape, and low cost (read FREE) landscaping/gardening service. (Dan is in my legendary r/trees post “Dan With Pygmy”) Now the FU: Dan has created little vignettes in the cactus garden, some are rocks and branches or brass lizards there are also quite a few bones: bleached old steer heads, a deer jaw or antlers. So occasionally one of us or my wife will find a bone in the local state park and bring it home to go in the yard. Today was different. Dan came back in our patinaed old red truck as I was leaving. As I walked up to the truck, my dog ...

TIFU by running out of gas in the middle of the Sonora desert on my motorcycle. 100 degrees, no cell reception, no one around and I got in the first car that stopped...

I was too busy thinking about how I wanted to look like a hitchhiker you’d actually like to pickup without thinking about who was doing the picking up... My presumed kidnapper got off the highway where I didn't expect. He said this was the closest gas station. We began driving 45 minutes down a dirt road towards Mexico. I wasn’t too concerned. We were going a whole 10 miles an hour and he was old so I figured I could duck, roll and run. I was tense but also in a "let's see what happens" mood. It wasn't until we got to his house and he was showing me his artichoke plants when I finally thought to ask “why are we at your house?" He looked confused then said, "the gas can!" and went to grab it. I felt relieved. We were about to leave when he stopped said, "you see that?" "The windmill?" I said. Looking outside. "No, the snake in the windmill… " There was no snake in the windmill. I looked at him bot...

TIFU by telling my aunt she has changed physically

So, in the middle of a conversation that had a lot of chatting and laughing in it, we were all bringing up memories from the past etc and decided to watch my parent's wedding (from the 90s), when my aunt was barely 40 and so beautiful. Idk how it just slipped out of my mouth and I told her: "btw, you changed a lot! I wouldn't have imagined it was you". In the same moment I don't remember wether it was before or after, I told another aunt that she didn't change much over the years. (Due to life responsabilities etc, the 1st one aged way faster than her peers) She didn't get angry or anything, she acknowledged it telling me that another woman who knew her stopped her in the street to ask her how her beautiful sister who was living in ... was doing (she was meaning the same person, she just didn't recognize her) and that she replied "oh, she's fine" without telling the woman that it was actually her. What breaks my heart the most is th...
