TIFU by eating beef jerky

TIFU by passing gas at my new in-law's house

As per tradition, this did not happen today but actually happened yesterday, at Christmas Eve dinner. For context, my husband and I got legally married a week ago yesterday, we only signed the marriage license and have our wedding planned for early next year. So, we went over to my in-laws for Christmas Eve dinner. After dinner, the four of us were chatting in the living room. I got up to use the bathroom which is located very close to the living room. I flipped on the bathroom light switch and didn't bother with turning the fan on as I was only there for a quick pee. I peed, wiped, stood up, pulled my pants up, and turned to wash my hands at the sink. My ass was facing the door. At that moment I involuntarily let out an extremely loud fart. After a pause, I heard them all laughing in the living room. I was mortified, hoping that by coincidence something funny was said or they were reminiscing on a gag gift that was exchanged earlier that evening. As I walked back to the living room they quickly started gathering our left-overs and gifts to help carry out to the car. They all looked like they were holding in laughter, I tried to act unfazed and oblivious to their behavior. We packed the car and said our goodbyes. As soon as my husband and I pulled away in our car he asked if I had farted in the bathroom. As I confirmed he burst out into more laughter. When we got home I received a text from my father-in-law that read "Enjoyed having you both tonight. Lots of laughs. Have a great holiday tomorrow. It's so nice that we feel so comfortable being in each other's company." Yeah, I'm never going to live this down.

TL;DR Used the bathroom at my in-law's Christmas eve dinner. Farted so loud everyone heard. As a newlywed my new father-in-law texted me saying it's nice I'm comfortable in their company.

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 getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
