TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by accidentally identifying myself, my brand, and my company as "Sh*t Head"

A couple of months ago, Whiles brainstorming various names for a brand i had planned to build, I came up with the placeholder name of CeannCac. This name was only supposed to be a word used for building a website - one to use in titles, product descriptions, etc, and was to be changed later when I came up with an official brand. It was entirely a joke and was never to be seen or known by the general public. I was a self proclaimed ceanncac.

Those reading this who are Irish or from Ireland may recognize the translation of this word. "Ceann Cac" is in Irish, and translates directly to "Sh*t Head" in English. This is where my problem lies.

Due to issues with deadlines and finances, I never got around to changing this name. Still not seeing an issue with it at the time, i thought it would be interesting to see if this name would pass as i applied for sole proprietorship (for tax reasons) and registered the company name as CeannCac with the Irish government. Unfortunately, to my surprise, The name did infact pass.

Now, In every single letter that comes through my door, or any email I receive from the revenue commision, I get called a Sht Head. In any business transactions i make, i get called a Sht Head.

(Un)Fortunately, I began selling quickly. This was an issue. Anybody who owns my products are actively showing off that they are self proclaimed sh*t heads. I had not foreseen any sales until at least February of 2023.

Making matters worse, In my quest to build my own brands product, rather than sourcing other ones, I contacted our manufacturer. I brought forward my plan for a branded bike we could sell, One which would sell on a limited basis. What I recieved in return was an E-Bike with the words SH*T-HEAD plastered all over the bike, along the sides, on any labels, on the handlebars and on the display, even on the saddle.

TLDR; Because of my own corner cutting in creating a brand name, I am now forced to accept my own new identity as a sh*t head, and I'm forced to push this name on other people. The financial costs of changing this are too much for me to currently cover.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
