TIFU by getting into a console flame war with a coworker

So not even an hour ago I stopped by a coworker's cubicle for a little chit chat. He told me he was trying to buy a PS5. So out of genuine curiosity I asked the typical "oh it's still sold out? Have you tried that Sony direct thing they're doing?" questions.

After all that I suggested getting a mid range PC for the same price. Admittedly it's been a while since I've done any video gaming or computer building myself but last I remember you could get a comparable or slightly better specced PC for the same price as a console. I even threw out the age old upgradeable selling points and all that.

Then, as I turned to walk back toward my cubicle I absentmindedly said "PC Master Race" down the hallway.

Well, I just got an email from HR and have a private meeting in 30 minutes. Pretty sure I'm gonna have to explain that I'm not a nazi...

TL;DR shouted bad things at my office, might get fired

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
