TIFU by hitting a dog, right in front of it's owner

With my car. And I fucking hate myself. I love all animals so this hurts every part of me, deeply. It's ~20 past midnight now and this was a ~50 minutes ago. I was gonna pick up one of my best friends from work. I saw this lady pass the end of my driveway with her white dog, even though my brights were on I didn't even see the black one at all. I ran right over it (not with my tires, with my plastic skid plate). I heard her screaming and I panicked and hit the brakes and parked it where I was. She pulled the dog out from under and it was howling and screaming, the poor thing, I don't how now much I hurt it, I'm praying it survives or I'll hate myself more than I already do. I know she hates me too and it's deserved. I should have creeped forward and asked if it was clear of if I was ok to go or something rather than just driving out like the dumb/ass/hole I am. I'm on the verge of tears right now, this is the end to an already bad day, getting hurt decently badly twice while mountain biking from stupid falls and not wearing pads and gloves.

I honestly don't want to even drive anymore. At all. Especially this car, lately I've had nothing but bad luck with it, tire problems, damage in parking lots from other careless drivers that I'll have to pay for, ticket stuff, credit/money problems from previous tires, and now this. I think I already had something against this car from when I hit an animal a long while ago, which was the worst day I had had for a long time, till now. Maybe still worse than now.

I don't know, I'm rambling now. Y'all probably are gonna ignore this post anyway.

Tl;Dr: hit a dog. Hate myself. Also had a shit day so this just added to it

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 ...
