TIFU by calling my mom a bitch

TL;DR at bottom

i’ve (16F) been falling behind with my school work lately and my parents have really been on my ass about it but especially my mom ever since my teacher called her about my overdue work. because i still have like 3 assignments that i have to do, today immediately after school she made me sit and stay at the dinner table until i was done working on my homework.

the issue with that is i had made plans for after school with my friends and stupidly didn’t think to ask for permission to go until the day of. of course when i asked her if i can go she said no and despite my begging it was still a no. i spent like 10 minutes trying to explain to her that i could just finish the rest of my work when i get home and i can still get it all done today but she was literally having none of it and was starting to raise her voice (out of annoyance i guess) which is something i really hate.

at that point i was feeling disappointed for having to cancel on my friends such short notice and annoyed because i couldn’t go even though i thought of a compromise. while she was leaving the room and when i assumed she was no longer in ear shot i called her bitch under my breath by mostly in a whisper, she didn’t come charging into the room or anything so i thought everything was fine and dandy.

fast forward a little bit to my dad coming home, everything was fine at first, my parents let me go from the table to my room to do my work because everyone was downstairs making noise and i was actually working on my stuff. so anyway, i’m doing my work when all of a sudden my dad comes into my room asking me how i’m doing and being all nice at first which is why i didn’t think anything of it, and then he starts asking me happened earlier.

i was genuinely super confused at first because i had forgotten about all that so i responded in a way that he interpreted as “playing dumb”. he told me not to play dumb and said that he had heard i called my mom something, this is when i was like ohh shit inside my head. verbally though, i just asked him what he’s talking about and he started going on about how i called her a bitch and i have no right to be talking about my mother like that and he’s gonna teach me how to be respectful and blah blah blah.

once i realized the extent of the situation i had gotten really defence and was obviously scared shitless, i started saying how she calls me a bitch all the time and i didn’t mean it and basically any excuse i can think of cuz my dad is scary when he’s mad and i just wanted to get out of it. he was hearing none of it and ended up beating me with his belt which i saw coming but still hurt like a bitch.

and to top it all off he made me apologize to my mom for calling her a bitch and she didn’t even accept the apology she just said like the next time i call her some shit like that she’ll fuck me up. super shitty day but at least i’ll remember to keep my mouth shut because arguing with my parents is like arguing with a brick wall

TL;DR - called my mom a bitch because she wouldn’t let me go out with my friends, dad fucked me up

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 ...
