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 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 ...
