TIFU by grabbing another roll of toilet paper?

I recently bought the family a whole pack of toilet paper which has 30-40 rolls bc my dad forgot his wallet at the store so I paid for it. My dad says he will pay me back the 25$ eventually which I doubt but regardless it’s for the family. So ik I most likely won’t see that money back.

Our family is made up of 8 people parents siblings and moms parents and we have 3 bathrooms in total with parents having private bathroom and grandparents with their own (they provide their own paper) and me and 3 siblings share one bathroom.

This morning I grabbed a roll from moms closet and she started berating me on why I’m grabbing another roll since we just grabbed one yesterday (I’m pretty sure it was 2 days ago) and she says that one roll is suppose to last one week for me and my 3 siblings.

I told her “ok then what do you want me to do than?” and instead of answering she kept screaming at me about how and why I need another roll. I then responded with “I payed for this then why not pay me back than?”. I mean this as a rhetorical question so she can understand that if someone is “wasting” money it’s me not her. And she started screaming at me until dad came in.

She than started crying and telling my dad that this whole week I was charging her for the toilet paper rolls. Just a note no I did not charge her or even ask her for the money back bc topics like this upset her to the point she stops talking to me. This was the first time I even mentioned money but I wasn’t being serious and dad knew it too and told her to just calm down.

Now ik she’s going to threaten me and give me the silent treatment this week and apologizing will not help bc the last time I tried apologizing after her outburst she yelled at me and told me to not speak to her.

TLDR; Mom victimizes herself bc we only need one roll for 4 people a week?

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 sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
