TIFU by removing my earring too early

Post a Comment

TIFU by following a hotel clerk into a room to "check it out."

I (24m) needed to post this to see if anyone else thought this was creepy.

My job had me leave town for training, and they pay for lodging while you're gone. I wanted to get a nicer room, and so I asked my boss if I could get the nicer room and pay the difference between the single queen room and the king suite. He said I was fine to just get the nicer room, but I was still worried about submitting my expenses report with a huge hotel cost so I looked for the cheapest suite I could find, called, and made a reservation.

Advice: don't look for the cheapest suite you can find.

So it was a reputable looking chain hotel, the room had a jacuzzi, a king size bed, and a kitchen. It was like 100 a night, and no deposit. When I arrived it was late at night. There were a couple people lounging in the lobby and it reaked of weed. This didn't honestly bother me, as I've been comfortable in much sketchier places.

The man at the front desk was noticeably sweaty, and had moderate BO. I gave him my ID and he made a photocopy. I did some paperwork and then it came time to pay. Long story short I was paying with mostly cash, so I pulled out a few hundred in cash and suddenly the clerk looked really unsettled. I didn't even think about the fact I'd pulled out cash, and I just assumed he was annoyed he'd have to deal with doing two payment types, but then he asked if before I paid, I wanted to see the room first.

Stupidly, I agreed without a second thought. Until the sequence of events that just happened replayed in my head on the way to the room. I frantically texted my partner to call me so I could act like i needed to take a call. Luckily my partner called right away. The clerk stopped for a second and turned towards me with an annoyed look. "I told her I'd call her when I got here, and she saw my phone location had arrived but I didn't call." He turned to keep going to the room, and I stayed on the phone. He kind of just walked in, and tried to get me off the phone so he could "tour" the room. I just held the phone to my chest and nodded.

The next thing is what made me much more sure of his intentions.

Finally he led me back to the front desk and I hung up. Back to the task of paying. I was pulling out my wallet and he said "sorry, I forgot to tell you. There is a 100 dollar deposit. You could use your cash for that." At this point I apologized and said I don't think I will get the room then. As I was gathering my stuff he says "how about a 50 dollar deposit?" I just said no thank you and left. I found a queen bedroom available somewhere else.

After looking back at the whole thing, I realized I had no clue what his plans were when he got me in that room alone. Maybe he thought I was going to hire "services" with my cash and wanted a bribe to keep quiet. Maybe he was going to rob me. But I saw his face, and knew his place of work. And why did he look so unsettled as soon as I brought out the cash? And if touring the rooms was protocol, why didnt he ask me to do that before taking a copy of my license? I might be overthinking it but i think if he was going to rob me, it was going to have to end in some violence because i knew so much about him already. I realize a lot of this story relies on body language that cannot be conveyed here, but he really did have a strong shift of demeanor leading up to showing the room.

TL;DR: Clerk saw my cash, tried to "tour" the hotel room to me, but i got my partner to interupt the encounter with a phone call before leaving.

TIFU by not disabling an option in Windows that seemingly made my PC stutter for the last 3 years

I bought a pretty good PC in 2019 (2300 € of goodness) but, a few months after I installed it, the PC started to have, at random, small freeze for like a second, every 10 to 50 min for seemingly no reason. I did tons of benchmark, pretty much read every posts about "my PC is stuttering/freezing help meee" on the internet, called the After Sale number from where I bought the PC. Removing and putting the GPU back helped for a few weeks, but then back to square one. Checked the state of my disks, the ventirad, everything ! Restarting the PC made the stuttering stop for like 1 or 2 hours that's it. I had GPU-Z and CPUID monitor on all the time to check if anything happened, and weirdly enough, having those monitoring program open made the stuttering way weaker ! Drove me absolutely crazy. Then one or two weeks ago I saw a post on r/buildapc about Fast Startup option in Windows and how it was a good idea to disable it... So I did. Since then, nothing. No stuttering, no f...

TIFU while being spicy with my Gf

I 26M have a gf 22f. We enjoy sex with each other but wanted to spice it up as she wanted to try something new and I was all for it. She had me order cuffs, a blindfold, and a vibrating plug which I thought would be fun to try. I let her know when they arrived and a few days after they arrived she came over and we got ready. She had me out the cuffs on her and blind fold first before I did anything else, followed by getting the plug ready. I put what I thought was a good amount of lube on it as one does. Well sadly when I slowly put the plug in, it immediately went all the way in as off it was just sucked in followed by a loud “AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHGHHHHH” which my dumbass at first thought “Oh she must really like it!” Until i realized it was from pain. I started panicking for a second then realized she was in pain, blind folded, and handcuffed. When I asked if she wanted me to take them off she said no and just sat there for about another 5 minutes. It didn’t completely ruin our spicey t...

TIFU by not getting visual confirmation on the lube he was using

Obligatory not today, but I was talking with my ex (the counterpart in this story) and he said he was surprised I hadn’t written this post yet, and truthfully, he’s right. So I (30 at the time, F) and my boyfriend (29 at the time, M) had been dating for a few months and were honestly having a blast. Maybe too much fun. A lot of late nights out. Both very spontaneous people with a lot of social and sexual energy when together, the latter being an important component of this story. One night we had decided to go to one of our neighborhood spots and have a few drinks before heading back to his place. In our city there’s this local artist that creates these awesome vending machines full of unique shit, some of it’s as simple as a pair of earrings or a bag of tiny ducks, but the fun ones are these mystery packages. I always liked choosing the spirit animal ones cause those contain a tiny toy animal and a card with some relatively snarky description of why your lazy like a shark or whateve...
