TIFU by watching Dune

All my life I have been pirating shows and movies because I'm poor and cheap in the same time. That being illegal never bothered me since I was living in a country where everyone was doing it and nothing happened.

A couple of days ago I moved to Germany.

Being a big fan of Dune when I saw it arriving on YIFY I was thrilled and downloaded it the same second without thinking too much.

I did not use a VPN because back home it was not necessary since they weren't tracking it at all.

Forward two days later. A bill and an agreement came from the crime police with a fee of 963€ and for me to sign it that I won't do it again.

So this will officially be the most expensive movie I ever saw. I will store on a cold hard and watch it at least once a month for the rest of my life to remind myself of this.

TL;DR I paid 963€ to watch Dune. Thats 360€ per hour. 6,3€ per minute. 10c per second.

I did like the movie though. But no so much.

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 sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
