TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU by accidentally screen sharing a video of someone fucking a Nutella jar for my class presentation

Backstory: A few weeks ago, I have been working on a free-topic presentation that I would share with my class. I decided I would cover Social Networking sites since they were something I was well-invested into.

Since my grade was plummeting, I had to make it an amazing presentation to impress my teacher. So, I grinded my ass off for the next week, finishing it far before the big day. In the meantime, I spent a lot of time online, mainly with my friends.

My friends and I have a thing where we look at cursed shit sometimes since it makes us laugh and cringe together. The night before the presentation, we looked at an account on Twitter that posts extremely NSFW videos, like a man sticking his entire head in a woman's... yeah, you get it. We had some fun, then I went to go get some sleep.

I wake up, and it's now the big day. I log in to Zoom, and we get straight to the presentations. Since the assignment had high expectations, everyone definitely put a lot of effort into their work. So, we got straight to the point and we starting presenting.

I was chosen first.

In a panic, I started sharing my screen and I opened up my browser. In my settings, I made it so my tabs from my last session of browsing are saved whenever I launch my browser. So when I opened it up, a video of a guy railing a jar of NUTELLA started playing.

This remained on screen for a good 5 seconds, and everyone got a good glimpse. I freaked out, my teacher freaked out, and the entire class freaked out. From my teacher's mic, I could hear the in-person group howling like a pack of grey wolves. My heart was beating out of my chest, and I said something along the lines of, "fuck, shit, sorry, oh my fucking god, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry," and I left the meeting to go cry in my pillow.

For the next thirty minutes, my messages were spammed by classmates asking what the hell happened, and I was too stressed and scared to answer. I still haven't heard from my teacher yet.

TL;DR: Browser left my tabs open which contained obscure NSFW content when I presented my screen to my class, and now my school presentation is my funeral

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
