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 - 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...
