TIFU by eating pizza with everything on it before a work meeting

So it’s the day before a 5 day weekend and I really don’t want to be working on reports and finishing paper work. I had a meeting at 1 so I went out at 1130 to grab lunch.

It’s Friday, I’m going to treat myself. Sausage, BBQ chicken, pepperoni, extra cheese and jalapeños on the pizza, you know, the works. It’ll destroy my stomach but I’ll hit the meeting and then take PTO for the last few hours and run home, no problemo.

I felt the tummy rumble and went and destroyed the bathroom, went back to my desk. Thinking it was a little rumble aftershock, I went to let one rip: big mistake. Placed my bet and LOST. Ran back to the bathroom. Currently trying to gameplan my exit. My keys are on my desk. I can sneak out the back unseen but I would need my keys. Can just sit on the bench and ask someone to bring me my keys, why am I sitting on the bench?

Why isn’t SlimeySnakes in the meeting? He ran to the bathroom and then left after having the intern bring him his keys while sitting on the bench when it’s overcast and about to rain. There’s no good play here.

TLDR: Treated myself to a pizza with the works for lunch, placed a bet on myself and lost. Now my weekend needs to start early but my keys are on my desk, requiring some fancy maneuvering.

Update from the home bathroom: Snuck out the back after hosing my pants with the air freshener in the bathroom. Messaged the intern on Teams and said Id but him a 6 pack if he takes the keys on my desk and puts them on my windshield and doesn’t ask questions. Questions disqualify him from earning beer. I hid at the side of the building until he was gone, got in my car and pants-lessly drove home in shame. I’m not far but I’m not changing and going back in. Messaged my boss and said so wasn’t feeling well and was going to take the rest of the day as PTO, gave an excuse of not wanting to risk getting the rest of the meeting sick and ruining their long weekend. He bought it. It cost me an extra 1.5 hours of PTO but I seem to have escaped. Now just to see if security got me sneaking around on the cameras

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...
