TIFU by showering with my husband at 8 months pregnant

Technically this happened yesterday, so it’s a YIFU.

Anyway, I had worked a long day where I was on my feet for most of it and at nearly 8 months pregnant, this is quite a feat. I was EXHAUSTED by the time I came home, everything was swollen and everything hurt, I’ll spare the graphic details. My husband had been home for a few hours before me, mowed the lawn and was ready for a shower by the time I arrived. I wanted to jump in with him, do a quick body and face wash and hop out. The thought of taking a separate full shower made me want to fall asleep right then and there.

So, I get in the shower, wet my face, start massaging in my face wash. As I am hogging all the water, I stand to the inside wall of the shower so my husband can come around and get some water as well. With my protruding belly, I can only get so close to the shower wall. In an attempt to go around my large pregnant ass, my husband loses his balance and in his words starts the “rolling down the windows” arm motions. He said he knew he had to grab on to something, but knew he couldn’t grab me (as he didn’t want me to go down with him) so he decides to go for the shower curtain rod. Which promptly ripped off the wall as he was going straight down to the floor. As I am still facing away washing my face good and well, I hear a loud crash from behind me. Where I turn to see my fully naked husband laying on the floor still holding the shower curtain rod with the shower curtain pooled around him, looking like a very hairy 220lb turtle on its back. After he lets out an meek “ouch” and starts laughing, I lost my shit. I laughed for a solid hour straight at least. Any time I stopped I’d get a flash back image of him splayed out on his back and lose it all over again. Every time I got up to pee during the night (which was a lot) and saw our sad shower curtain hanging from two hooks on the wall now, the giggles would kick back in. And still today, any time we mention it I can’t help but cry laughing.

Today he is sore, but otherwise unharmed. I love my husband but I think we’ve (or I’ve) outgrown our joint shower days for a little while longer.

TL;DR I accidentally knocked my husband out of the shower because i take up too much room with my large pregnant belly.

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 ...
