TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by dropping my phone to catch a falling knife

Was reminded of this story when I was reading comments of an r/askreddit post.

This happened around two years ago and can be abbreviated as short as the title.

I was cooking a new recipe which meant I was scrolling on my phone back and forth between the ingredients and the preparation part of the website. Obviously I could have just cut all required ingredients and then start cooking, but who has time for that? I decided it would be best to follow the recipe as precise as possible, which meant a lot of "while cooking this, cut this and this and at it to the pot". Rushing the cooking was ensured.

Anyway, while trying to find the amount of celery sticks I needed to cut I heard a noice from behind me. As I turned around I accidentally knocked the knife off the counter sending it towards the floor. In a reflex I decided that saving the precious sharp edge was totally worth the risk, so I did the only logical thing: drop my phone and grab the knife. As you can imagine: I wasn't fast enough to save the knife, but I was fast enough to touch the knife, which meant the knife was able to cut me pretty good.

Now since the nearest hospital was 10 km away, I had no car, and none of my roommates where home, I needed to call a friend of mine and ask whether he could bring me with his car. But you guessed it: by dropping my phone I had broken the screen which meant it went unresponsive.

So there I was: without a phone and bleeding. Luckily I'm Dutch so I did the only logical thing: grab a clean t-shirt to wrap around my hand and hop on my bike to cycle to the hospital to enjoy the cheap healthcare.

Lesson learned: Don't try to catch falling knives

TL;DR; Dropped my phone while trying to catch a falling knife. Cut myself and had no way to call for help.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
