TIFU by looking up a murder victim's profile on facebook

Wasn't sure where else to post this. Sorry for the formatting but Im a little disturbed right now and am not really paying attention.

Whenever I read about someone in the news who was murdered or the victim of a violent crime, I pretty much always look them up on facebook to put a faces with the story. Today I read a story about a father who murdered and the police had their young son (> 13 yrs old) in custody so naturally I wanted to see what a father who got murdered by their young child looked like. When I entered the name into facebook, lots of results came up with none matching the one I was looking for. One profile that did catch my eye though was a young picture of Lindsay Lohan with their occupation listed as professional model. My first thought was 'Surely no one is dumb enough to believe this photo is actually of the profile owner' so I clicked on it to confirm. Every picture on this person's profile was of a young lindsay lohan. 'Ok, that's weird' I thought, but was really weirded me out was friends list. Every friend (1000+) had a default profile picture of an obviously underage girl. A lot of these photos looked like they were either taken without the girl knowing, or had a plain background. Clicking on one of the friends takes you to a similar profile - a bunch of friends with young girl default photos, and a bunch of young girls in their photo album.

I'm currently trying to find a way to report this to facebook, but currently Im only finding ways to report very narrow things and/or single profiles with no options to further explain in text what the issue is. If anyone has any suggestions let me know.

Tl;dr Looked for a murder victim's profile picture on facebook, possibly found a pedophile ring

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...
