TIFU by forgotting the date and not checking the inside of an envelope

So basically there are 6 people in this situation: Me, my three friends (lets call them A, J and M) A's grandma and J's dad.

On wensday A invited me to his birthday. First he asked me: "what are you doing on sunday?" and then: "would you like to come to my birthday on saturday?"

I missed the part when it says saturday so i thought its on sunday.

I was doing chores today (saturday) (cleaning my room) and i found an envelope (i didnt checked whats inside) and i thought that it would be a good envelope where i can put money for my friend to give him on his birthday.

So i asked my mom for money (50 zł) for my friends birthday and she said that she would give it to me later cuz his birthday is tommorow.

Always when i do chores my mom takes my phone until i finish all of them. The birthday was supposed to be on 4PM. When i finished chores it was almost 6PM. When i got my phone back i saw lite TEN MISSED CALLS FROM MY FRIEND, HIS GRANDMA AND OTHER FRIEND. I knew i f*cked up.

So i checked the messege from my friend and it said saturday not sunday. I called my friend and told me i will be there in 5 minutes.

I was panicking and i forgot to put the money inside the envelope. I dressed up and asked my mom if she could drive me to the birthday party.

(Nothing import you can skip this part, i just wanted to add this) When i got out of car i was shocked seeing that the birthday party was just 3 people: me, A and J. I felt bad for A cuz 4 other people went to holidays the same time.

So i gave A chocolate and the envelope. We ate pizza at the pizzeria and we went to his home.

He wanted to do envelope opening. First he opened J's envelope - 50zł. Then it was my turn. He opens it and finds out... A SHIRTLESS PHOTO OF MY FRIEND??? So basically i was bored like a week ago and started printing my friends wierd looking photos. I found that envelope and put M's shirtless photo in it.

Everyone started laughing uncontrollably. First it was A, then J and then their grandpa and dad.

I felt so embarrased but i could handle it and started laughing with them.

The laughs took like 10 mins

A said that its the best birthday present he ever got. I apologized for not giving him the money and told him i will give it later.

The party was very good and we had alot of fun.

TL;DR i got late for birthday party and forgot to check the envelope i was about to give to the birthday haver. The envelope had a shirtless photo of my friend and no money.

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...
