TIFU by pinning a female batchmate on Google meet and then sharing my screen

I am a freshman at college and that day we were having our second maths tutorial. It was on Google meet (with videos off) due to COVID restrictions. So basically, I was on a meet with a bunch of strangers that were going to be my friends for atleast the next four years and fucked up in the beginning. Maths has always been my least favorite subject and has always bored me to death. So as usual was getting bored out of my mind while the other students and the TA were discussing answers. was just scrolling through the list of participants aimlessly, looking at people's pfp and getting familiar with the facesl was going to meet very soon after the soul crushing lockdowns. Then noticed a girl with specs on the list and tbh she kinda looked cute. But her dp was a bit out of focus and blurry. So decided to look closer and pinned her on my screen to get a better look at her face. Then I hear a voice calling for my name and asking me to share my solution to a problem. I panicked and started to search for the file with my answers on the computer and shared my screen as soon as opened the file. Unaware that the girl's pfp was still pinned to my screen. Even after stopped sharing my screen, was unaware of what had just done. Few weeks later, today, my friend who was also on that meet told me what had happened that day. I am more embarassed than I have felt ever before.

TL;DR - Pinned my female batchmate on my screen to get a better look at her pfp because it was blurry and then shared my screen to present an answer to the TA, unaware that they can see that I had pinned the girl to my screen.

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 ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
