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 by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

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 ...
