TIFU by letting some kids think Bambi died

So I was talking to my brother this morning and he was in a good mood. He told me he had been hunting and showed me a picture of a really big buck he had killed. Now before I continue I should probably let you know that my family’s love language is insulting each other. There have been instances where people hear our conversations and stand up as if they’re getting ready to break up a fight. So when he shows me the picture my first instinct is to downplay it. I say “you probably just saw that deer on the side of the road and shot it.” He calls me a hater and we laugh and continue our day. About 2 hours ago we went to our cousin’s house and when my brother walked in this is the conversation that happened.

Brother: “Hey (cousin) you gotta see this.”

Me: “oh great”

Cousin: “What is it?”

Me: “He’s just happy he killed Bambi.”

I noticed my cousin’s 2 young kids were in the room but I didn’t think much of it. They know what hunting is and I didn’t think they would hear that and think my brother literally killed Bambi. They started crying. My brother had no idea what to say. My cousin didn’t realize why they were crying and the thought of letting them think my brother killed Bambi was so funny I couldn’t say anything because I was holding in my laugh. Luckily my cousin’s wife was in the room and took charge in the situation. After 30 minutes my brother and I had finished doing what we were there to do and we went back in the house. Now I feel guilty because while they had calmed down they didn’t believe my cousin’s wife that Bambi wasn’t dead. I feel like I killed Bambi. So that’s how my day has been so far.

TLDR: I said a joke and now 2 little kids think Bambi is dead.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
