TIFU by going to a hooters without checking the menu...

This quite literally just happened. I have been exhibiting symptoms similar to lactose intolerance for a while. After having anything dairy I have extreme pain and other fun toilet related activity. I have been scanned for anything else but all scans show normal. Lactase enzyme helps immensely so I feel its safe to assume that I have some sort of issue with dairy.

1st mistake: I didn't stock up enough on lactase. Despite being close to a store I didn't even think to restock. Last night, I ran out.

2nd mistake (the main dish): Saying yes to a hooters trip without checking the menu. Like an oxygen deficient salmon I said yes because (despite being on testosterone) I was having severe menstrual cramps and didn't feel like cooking so I seized the chance to eat out. Low and behold, here i sit in a hooters, and I have no idea what's in what. Are the wings battered in buttermilk? Is there anything that I can eat without sentencing myself to a double whammy of both cramps and dairy induced hell? I have not only screwed myself over though, as this was a get together. And now its a tense atmosphere. I got pressured into ordering fries, but they can tell I don't like them (autism's a [female dog] in the culinary world. I'm extremely sensitive to textures and the mushy bland inside of fries aren't very... Enjoyable.) I'm eating as much as i can to break the atmosphere, but holy crap I f*cked this up. All I had to do was stay home or stop by a store on my way.

Apologies for any creative phrases that make this post appear like its a joke. My way of dealing with stuff is absolutely bizarre and I'm trying to change for future conversation.

TL;DR: might be lactose intolerant (NOT CONFIRMED BUT SUSPECTED). didn't stock up on lactase enzyme. Went to hooters with family. Didn't check the menu at all. Couldn't order anything so they had me get fries. I don't like fries but its what i deserve for being the human equivalent of a backwards air conditioner

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...
