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 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 ...
