TIFU by playing jackbox with my parents

The other night my parents were staying with my fiancé and I when we had a couple friends over and decided to invite them to a few games of jackbox with us. There were 6 of us in total. We were having a hilariously great night, my parents were cutting loose and getting along great with us and our friends, plus we were all drinking which helped things.

Here is where ifu...we decided to play that monsters dating monsters game. It started out pretty awkward as a dating game between four of us in our twenties and my mom and dad in their fifties. Dad didn't really understand the game but eventually started to get it during the texting round where you're supposed to flirt with someone so they will match with you at the end of the round. We all pick a character and that is our face on the screen.

So I'm flirting with one of my friends when my dad sends me this message "Hey you wanna sneak out of here and hump?" I kid you not he literally used the word hump. My face snaps up to his with this completely shocked jaw-dropped expression and he realizes his mistake. He said "I meant to send that to your mom!"

Everyone else is trying to figure out what's going on when the round ends and everyone's text conversations are displayed on the screen. Everyone sees what my dad sent to me and starts busting out laughing. My mom was so grossed out that she got up and left and was genuinely mad at my dad.

Safe to say we never played that again!

TL;DR: played a jackbox dating game with my parents and my dad accidentally hit on me in front of my friends

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...
