TIFU by using a different sized tampon than I usually do

Obligatory Im on mobile.

My Fiancé (26m) and I (25f) are both students and are currently quarantining at my parents house for the lockdown my province is in as we are getting married in two days (micro zoom based wedding). I started my period almost a full week early so I didn’t happen to have anything with me and haven’t been here a full two weeks so I can’t leave the house until tomorrow. I texted my sister (24f) to see if she had anything and she brought me a few tampons. I’m not a big tampon user to begin with and these were a different size and brand than I usually use but it shouldn’t be a problem right? Nope I couldn’t be more wrong. A few hours later I went to the bathroom and when I went to go change it I couldn’t find it. Assuming maybe it had just fallen out when I sat down I checked the toilet and nothing. It was no where to be found. I spent the next twenty minutes digging around my own bits trying to get it out. Contorting myself into shapes I haven’t been in before, squatting, the whole works, all well mildly panicking that I’m gonna get toxic shock and die before I could even get married. My fiancé then texts me to see why I’ve been hold up in the bathroom for half an hour so I let him know about my tampons disappearance act. Being the amazing man he is he immediately comes into the bathroom and volunteers his services to help me remove it. So there I am spread eagle on the bathroom floor my fiancé basically wrist deep inside me trying to fish a tampon out of me when the door opens and it’s my mother. She immediately screams and shuts the door. Luckily my fiancé managed to pull it out of me shortly after and we had to make the walk of shame downstairs to explain the ordeal to the rest of the house as both my sisters and my father heard my mothers scream and they were all in the living room talking about what she had just seen. Luckily my family is a little to close so they all just thought it was hilarious and not my dads out getting me the proper supplies so we don’t repeat this ever again.

TLDR: I borrowed some tampons from my sister that are different from what I usually use and one got lost inside of me, when Fiancé was helping me remove it my mother walked in and saw the hole ordeal.

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
