TIFU by playing my little brother’s gaming console.

It was a regular, stressful day. Worked 9-5 and spent all of those hours scrambling around my fluorescent hellscape trying to meet an impossible deadline for a project that got put on my desk. By the time I leave, I am exhausted. BUT. My little brother asks if I want to go to GameStop. Hell yeah I do. I pick him up and we drive. He ends up buying an Xbox (he had been looking for a deal on the series X for a while now)

But that’s not the console that ruined my night.

When we get home he is so stoked, has the system set up within twenty minutes and is downloading games. I, tired and a little jealous, tell him to enjoy it while he is still young. His biggest worry is which version of Plants vs. Zombies to download from Gamepass.

“Hey, I’m gonna be pretty occupied with the Xbox for a while, why don’t you take my Oculus? I haven’t been using it recently anyways!”

Not really my thing, but I’ll humor him. Maybe if I play it we’ll have more to talk about?

I say goodnight and get home, take a well needed shower, and plop onto bed. Laying there, bored out of my mind and not quite tired yet, I look over at the Oculus box. Look away. Look at the ceiling. Look at the joint I haven’t smoked yet. Look back at the oculus box. “Fuck it” I say to myself. I didn’t plan on playing it tonight, but it’s been a long day. Getting high and playing VR sounds like a cool experience. I deserve this.

I don’t smoke weed often. I have a very low tolerance and have had some paranoia with it in the past. But I had just bought an indica/CBD mixture that I was told is very mellow in hopes it would help me relax. I light up, take a few puffs, and put on the headset.

I’m greeted with a desert landscape, I think there was a waterfall in the distance. It was beautiful honestly. I was amazed at how real it felt. The first game I see is VR chat. I didn’t recognize any of the other titles, and felt like socializing a little bit so I figured it was the best choice.

As soon as I open the game, I’m messing with the controls, trying to figure out what I’m working with, and get to the character section. He has a meowth avatar at the moment. I look at the selection.

“Oh, cool, it’s a dragon!” I click.

This dragon has the fattest ass I have ever seen. Onto the next one. Isabelle from animal crossing…with huge tits and her tongue sticking out. Why would they do that to her. I keep scrolling and selecting avatars. It gets worse the further I scroll. They’re all furries. I go to look at the world selection. “HEAVY R FURRIES” “FURRY PEEPSHOW” “KITTEN KLUB XXX” And his profile’s ‘about me’? Yeah he definitely plays this game one handed.

At this point I am violently high, a little weirded out, and so done with this day.

TL;DR: My brother lent me his oculus headset and I found an ungodly amount of NSFW furry content on VR chat.

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

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 ...
