TIFU by finding out I have been ruining the quality of my music

I really really love music. I can easily listen to music for 8 hours a day. It's something really important to me.

Well today I had to get some work done on my Chromebook. Normally I always use my phone for music but this time I decided I needed no distractions so I plugged my earbuds into the Chromebook instead. The first song I listened to immediately blew me away. The sound was so much clearer and defined than what I was used to and I even heard things I've never heard before in the songs. For example someone whispering in the background or a little sound effect. These were songs that I've been listening to for over a year so suddenly hearing there's so much more to them really surprised me to say the least.

One of the things I also noticed is that it sounded a lot more like surround sound. I checked some settings on my phone when I noticed I had "mono sound" turned on which means both earbuds will play the exact same thing, pretty much deleting surround sound. I turned it off and turns out that that was indeed the problem. By combining what is supposed to be two different sides it drowned out all the little details.

Tl;dr: listened to music through my Chromebook and found out my earbuds are capable of a lot better sound, looked through the settings on my phone and found out I have been ruining my music.

I advice everyone who regularly listens to music to check whether you might also have this setting turned on, I didn't know what I was missing until I heard the difference

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. ...
