TIFU dafür dass ich damals bescheuert war?

TIFU by effectivly breaking my butt.

Happened yesterday actually. I work for a private K-12 school entirely for kids with autism, and yesterday went on a field trip to a trampoline park with my class(I'm a para-pro/caregiver helping the teacher). Was having a blast jumping and playing with the kiddos and we decided to do this zipline they have that you drop onto a trampoline foam pit from.

My coworkers had done it just fine, and it's rated for people up to 260lbs it says, now I'm 210 so I figured it'd be fine and went for it. I dropped onto my butt from about 5 feet up, in a cross legged sitting position basically, only the trampoline apparently was only like 2 feet above the concrete under it, I immediately felt the same sharp pain I'd felt in my youth as a skateboarder(I'm 36 now), but so, so, so much worse.

I felt all life and joy leave my body and an immediate sense of dread accompanied by intense shooting pain through my entire lower half of my body and my back. I got up and began pacing around trying to assess just wtf happened. The whole rest of the day I felt intense, shooting pain and especially when sitting down. Considering part of my job is driving, this was awful. At home I had to sit on the couch leaning on one of my booty cheeks or laying down. Decided to go to the doc today after my half day at work today because the pain was so bad and wanted to make sure my back wasn't damaged. The imaging done showed that my tailbone is fractured, but unfortunately nothing can be done about it and I just have to wait it out more or less and do Tylenol and 800mg ibuprofen. I'm still sitting here leaning on one of my rump roasts feeling like an idiot and in pain. I have so much to do in my house right now and feel helpless lol.

TL;DR thought I could do a zip line at a trampoline park and pulled an Adriana Chechik only fracturing my ass bone instead.

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 making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
