TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by flushing my only car key in the toilet

This happened just a few hours ago. I came home from work and went to the bathroom to take a piss. I flushed the toilet, turned toward the sink to wash my hands, and in that process my car's only key was ejected from my sweater's pocket and landed straight into the toilet as it was at peak flush.

I didn't have enough time to react and grab the key before it went down the drain. I saw it get swallowed and was mortified. I yelled many massive FUCKs and my wife banged on the door wondering if I was critically injured or something.

I desperately stuck my hand into the toilet drain to see if the key was miraculously stuck there. Obviously it wasn't. I live in an apartment building so I talked to the building management to ask if it's realistic to recover it. As I thought, it wasn't. Plus it was in the evening so maintenance staff are gone anyway.

I scrambled to figure out my options. My first instinct was to call my car dealership which is quite close to me, to ask how much it would cost to get a new key. They said it would be $200 but I would need to tow it there within an hour and a half to get it today. Luckily I told one of my best friends about this mishap and he recommended that I call an automotive locksmith instead. I did that, the guy wanted $200, and he came to me instead of getting a tow truck, so I saved at least $150. Plus he made me a spare key so I can have a backup in case I fuck up again in the future.

The other fuck up was that my toddler heard me yell FUCK many times and started to repeat it. Luckily he got over it quickly.

Basically this was a horrible TIFU but also a TIL. I learned that it's better to call an automotive locksmith than pay quite a lot more to tow your car to the dealership in such a shitty situation.

TL;DR - accidentally flushed the only copy of my car's keys down the toilet, my son learned a new curse word, but it ended up working out despite setting me back $200

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
