TIFU by Asking about one question too many about handcuffs.

Obligatory not today. After our Thanksgiving feast we all decided to play Jackbox (for the two of you who don't know, it's a set of party games you play on your phones with one tv screen displaying information for everyone). We played fakin' it, where each round one person is the faker and must answer questions they don't know without appearing suspicious. Round 2: first question: raise your hand if you've ever worn handcuffs for any reason. I thought back to my childhood and recalled playing with a pair of handcuffs in the room I shared with my brothers (before they moved out). They were toy handcuffs (with a tab that can release the grip and free your hands, and also a simple key), but handcuffs nonetheless. I decided is raise my hand. I knew my brother and his wife were probably into kinky stuff, so I knew they'd get outed by each other. I'm pretty sure my sister has been detained, so her hand would probably go up. Either way, she'd get outed by her husband (Also playing) who I had no clue on. That just left my mom. She's not the kind to ever get arrested and there's no way my mom was ever into kinky stuff, right? Not My Mom...right?

I watched her hand go up, but suspicion is immediately placed on my hand and everyone voted me as the faker. I explained the toy handcuffs i found, but everyone just laughed and went ahead with the vote. I got so caught up with defending myself I forgot to point out that Mom's hand went up too. Next question (I don't remember it), Mom's answer was met with suspicion and we promptly voted her as the faker. She was not. Here's the TIFU. I asked her when she wore handcuffs. I was expecting an answer like "my brother's a cop" or "I visited a police station when placing handcuffs on children was socially acceptable."

My friends, much awkward laughter was made in that short time which felt like eternity. My sister burst into "🎵When a MAAAAAAAAAAANNNNN LOVES A WOMAN!!!🎶" All at once it clicked. Those handcuffs were not real, but they were also too well made to be a children's toy.

I had played with my parents kinky sex toy. I don't think I need to elaborate how that can scar even the most sex-deadened individuals.

TL/DR: I asked one question too many and discovered I had played with (one of?) my parents' kinky sex toy.

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 ...
