TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by asking a dumb question to the bartender over the phone and having him recount the embarrassing story to his coworkers without knowing I was right in front of him

Covid restrictions are slowly starting to lift in my city (East Coast US) and many restaurants are allowed to operate again at full capacity and without restricted hours. My roommates and I are all vaccinated and wanted to celebrate the first glimpse of Covid's end so we decided to head to the local pub for some late night drinks and snacks. We decided we wanted to go out around 10pm.

Because every business can decide for themselves if they want to keep their old restricted hours or move to new ones, I decided to give the bar a ring and ask if they would still seat us at 10:30pm and what time their kitchen closed. It went something like this:

Me: Hi! I was calling to see if you were still seating parties and what time your kitchen closes tonight?

Bartender: Hi, yes we are. Thee kitchen closes at 1:15 and last call is at 1:45.

Me: 1:15 A. M.? (I heavily emphasize 'A.M.')

Bartender: Um.... yes?

Me: alright thank you.

At this point, I hang up as quickly as possible. My roommate is staring at me in disbelief. She looks at me and says "No, OP. They're going to stay open through the night and close at 1:45pm tomorrow." It is at this point, I realize I sound like an utter idiot.

So we head to the bar, I get over my embarrassment and the evening starts beautifully. But then we become one of the last few tables left, and the servers, long out of smalltalk, begin recounting my idiotic phone call right in front of me behind the bar. You can imagine the conversation amongst them is very similar to the way in which I just recounted this story, but unfortunately for me, my face became beet-red in the process.

So in all my idiocy, I forgot that bars actually used to stay open past midnight pre-covid. Whoops.

TL;DR I clarified with the bartender that he was closing at 1:45AM instead of 1:45PM the next day and he made fun of me to his coworkers while I was sitting right across from him at the bar. Apparently, I forgot businesses stayed open past midnight pre-covid.

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...
