TIFU by dropping 100,000 dollars worth of Salvador Dali originals.

This was years ago but one time i was contacted by a film maker who was making a surreal short film for an exhibition of Salvador Dali type artworks that was touring Australia at the time. He asked to be able to use my centipedes, tarantulas and scorpions for an extra bit of edge to his content and i'm an invertebrate zoologist and breeder of these animals so i obliged. He came over, got some clips and we got along quite well so he asked if i wanted to come and be part of the exhibit.

So, as is the custom; i arrive on the day with a suitcase full of tarantulas not knowing what to expect of the event and i walk in through the front doors and ask a staff looking person where to go. He directs me toward a spiral staircase at the front of the club and at the top of these stairs was some cardboard/wood type panels, presumably to keep the public out so i pushed past a small gap and carried my suitcase between it. While i was walking away, the panel i had just passed fell to the floor so i turned around to see 6-7 other, identical panels with piece of artwork on them. Fuck.

I picked up the panel and some sketches were on the panelthankfully unbroken so i inspected to see how it was connected and how i could fix it but just then some guy walked into the room, realized what had happened and went off his head at me (unresonably so i thought at the time) i tried to hang around to rectify the situation but he was quite angry and i later found out his reasoning was quite understandable because he was the head curator of the event and later when we got into a chat i asked if there were any actual original Dali's in the building. He informed me that there was, they were the ones i dropped, roughly 100,000 Australian dollars worth. Obviously i became a lot more apologetic than before and asked if he was insured haha.

TLDR: Took a suitcase full of tarantulas to a Salvador Dali exhibition, pushed past a makeshift fence i thought was meant to keep the public out of the exhibiting areas later to find out there was 100,000 dollars of Salvador Dali sketches on the part of fence that i dropped.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
