TIFU By Trying to do Squats in The Shower

It's been a long day. I was just at a party/gathering, I'm tired and wanted to just shower, and go unwind. So, I start to run the water, hop in, and then just do normal shower things. I wash my hair, etc, and absentmindedly while rinsing out some shampoo, I randomly decide to do some squats. If you ask me why, I won't know what to tell you. I don't even know why I did it.

The shower was obviously slippery, and after like, five, I start to slide around a bit. I have one of those bath + shower combos, and so there's a showerhead and a faucet. And as I'm being my idiot self, I bend down, slide backwards, and try to stand up in the worst possible spot. Right under the faucet. The faucet in my shower/tub is weirdly high-up and sticks out a bit longer than it probably should, so I hit myself REALLY hard on the underside of the faucet. It hurt like hell, and I get that 'Oh shit, what did I just do' feeling, trip over my own feet and fall down.

At this point, now my knee is hurting from where I hit it on the way down, and my lower back/ rear is starting to bleed, and there's this weird half-circle/crescent mark on it from the faucet. My sister knocks on the door, asking if everything is okay, and I lie through my teeth that the shower curtain fell and that everything's just peachy. Wondering how I could be so stupid, I get back in, and finish up, not before getting soap in the wound and in my eyes.

Now, about two hours later, I have a huge bruise on both my lower-back and knee. Moral of the story? Don't do squats in the shower.

TLDR: Tried to do squats in the shower, and got absolutely wreaked by my faucet.

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...
