TIFU by accidentally sending 100s of Stickers on Whatsapp to an old classmate.

So, in short, about a month ago I accidentally dropped my cheap Moto phone in water. The Screen went blank. I went to local repair shop and replaced my screen with a cheap duplicate screen. However, this replacement screen brought about various issues. At times, the screen wouldn't respond to touch, while other times it would become overly sensitive. Occasionally, the phone would freeze, and so on.

​

Now, let's fast forward to two days ago. I have a classmate whom I haven't seen in about 8 years, but he is still in my WhatsApp contacts, though I rarely message him. Recently, a friend of mine informed me that this classmate had become a parent. Upon hearing this news, I congratulated him via WhatsApp. He responded with a brief "thank you."

​

Which takes us to today, So I was lying in bed just passing time. I opened Whatsapp, felt thirsty, put the mobile facedown on the bed, had a drink of water.
And just as I came back, I start hearing noise of message sending, I hurriedly take phone in my hands and lo behold, my phone had sent 100s of Stickers to this said classmate.I don't know how it happened, maybe ghost touch or due to my bed directly touching the touch screen. I hurriedly began deleting those messages using WhatsApp's feature to delete messages for everyone, but it is taking a long time.

​

Meanwhile this said classmate calls me and he is very angry, in fact he is fucking enraged. Apparently his kid had some complication and is still in hospital. He screams at me and questions what the fuck is wrong with me. Tells me that his child is still in hospital and that I have audacity to do this meaningless shenanigans.
I was horrified and apologized and tried explain what exactly happened. But he was too angry to listen and hanged up. I felt miserable. I proceeded to delete the remainders of the messages. And I sent him final message describing the situation in brief and apologized once more and told him to take care.
He still hasn't responded.

​

As a depressed guy, I don't have lot of friends, and I don't talk to lot of people, and this incident just made me more miserable. I am sorry for what happened but I can't do anything else about it. I just feel like fucking loser.

​

TL;DR: My broken mobile erroneously sent 100s of stickers on Whatsapp to an old classmate who recently became parent but their child is still in hospital causing them to go angry.

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
