TIFU by getting paranoid and exposing myself on instagram live

(Throwaway because this is genuinely too embarrassing to post on my normal account. )

I (a legal adult, don’t worry) sometimes have some pretty ridiculous paranoia, and today one one of those times. I saw some creepy post, ironically enough on this app, and it threw me off all day. So badly so that when I got a shower, I was nearly paralyzed in fear that something was going to be outside the curtain when I got out.

My entire household was asleep, and obviously I’m not going to wake someone up and have them watch me get out of the shower, so for some reason I decided the next best thing to do was to go on to my Instagram account and start up a live video. That way, if anything happened to be there, at least there would kind of be people there with me. One crucial detail I had forgotten was my mirror is directly across from the shower. So, after waiting a second for a few people to come onto the live, I bravely yank the curtain back as fast as I could.

Promptly revealing my entire naked body in the mirror.

I turned the camera away and ended it as quickly as I could, but the damage had definitely been done. Thankfully my account is private and the only people on there were friends, but I am still so embarrassed I don’t think I’ll ever be able to look anyone of them in the eyes again. On the slightly bright side, this was so mortifying that the paranoia is no longer taking over my mind!

Tl;DR- in a bouta of paranoia about something being outside my shower, I went on Instagram live to have someone with me to make sure nothing was there. Yanked the shower curtain open to fully frontal flash the people on there

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 ...
