TIFU - My mum sent pictures of her vaginal prolapse to a florist..

Reddit, I am mortified but also cannot stop laughing, probably through nerves.

So, my mum is in her mid 60s. She’s terrible with all things technology related, especially mobiles. Example, for some reason her WhatsApp profile picture was (and still is) a mannequins head styling a wig and she’s no idea how it got there or how to change it. It’s so stupid we’ve just kept it there. She quite a gullible person, but it’s endearing.

Now onto the purpose of this post.

My mum, although terrible with mobiles, recently ordered flowers online for a sick relative who was in the hospital. They were fairly expensive costing around £65. When the flowers arrived, they were nothing like in the online pictures, in fact they were pretty much a day or two away from dying. She found herself pretty disgruntled at this and decided to email the florist with what should’ve been pictures of the flowers, showing how terrible they were.

Now, this is where it gets shocking. My mum recently had to go through surgery for a vaginal prolapse. If you don’t know what this is, I suggest you don’t Google it if you’re sensitive to bodily parts going a bit, wrong? She had to take daily pictures of it to show the gynaecologist at her next appointment (something to do with the exercises she was being asked to do).

My mum in the heat of being disgruntled, attaches what she assumes are pictures of the dead ass flowers, but instead somehow manages to select 5 pictures of her fucking vaginal prolapse and proceeds to send them to the florist along with a complaint.

She hits send. Email sent. Items attached.

It’s only a few hours after something must have clicked in her brain warning her she did something wrong, when she calls me and tells me what she’s done and the email has been sent.

Panicked, I go to her house and try to delete the email, but I know too well I can’t retract it. I attempt to call the florist and explain not to open the email, but they had closed for the day. All I could do was send another email apologising and begging them not to open the original email.

It’s been 24hrs and no word. I’m both nervous laughing, but also mortified from start to finish.

So there you have it, my mother folks!

TL;DR - my mum meant to send a complaint email to a florist attached with pictures of the shit flowers, instead she mistakenly attached pictures of her vaginal prolapse.

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...
