TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by leaving my house

This happened 5 minutes ago and I never want to leave the house again.

About a week or so ago, I got a note through my door saying that my package couldn't be delivered, and that I'd have to go and pick it up from the local postal office. I've been putting it off for a while now, mostly because it's not that close, the place closes at awkward times, and I've only just recently moved to this area, but I decided that today is the day I would go and finally pick it up.

I leave the house, walk 2 minutes up the road, and try to arrange an Uber (I can't drive). Not a single one is accepting the ride, and I decide that this is a sign I should go home and try again tomorrow, taking the bus instead (wouldn't have had time to get there today). Almost immediately after putting my phone away, I hear a group of people round the corner behind me, mocking what sounds like my coat. "Wow, this guy must think he's Harry Potter of something". After hearing that soul crushing comment, I start walking back to my house.

Life wasn't finished with me yet, however, for as I began to approach my house, I see another poor soul having a bad time. Directly outside my house, a man on his bicycle tragically and dramatically, in what appears to be slow motion, over the course of roughly 7 seconds, falls off, somehow managing to pull his jeans down with him as he goes down, revealing his underwear. This is a main road, I've got a full view of this from behind, and 2 women ahead of him witness the entire thing.

As a fellow guy, and follower of bro code, I looked down and pretended not to notice the scene, promptly pulling out my keys and going through my front door. Behind me, I can hear the 2 women approach the man, asking him if he's okay.

TL;DR: I've been bamboozled by the postal office, mocked by a group of strangers, and now I feel like shit because in hindsight I should've asked the guy if he was okay and helped him up.

All within 10 minutes of leaving the house.

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. ...
