TIFU by giving myself a hemorroid

Obligatory “this happened over the span of a few days”

As of late, college has been pretty stressful. As a Finance and Computer Science double major, I’ve been getting fucked from both sides by my courseload. As such, I’ve been so tired, falling asleep the second I step into my room has become a pattern. Unfortunately that means I haven’t been taking my nighttime Ulcerative Colitis medicine, which has led to a unfavorable chain of events. For those of you who don’t know, some symptoms of Ulcerative Colitis or UC, as I will henceforth call it, include the frequent desire to shit, yet only have blood or intestinal mucus leave the body.

Normally the medicine remedies these symptoms, but as I’ve been skipping them, I’ve been spending more time on the porcelain throne. Since quarantine, I’ve developed the bad habit of sitting on the toilet for a fairly long time, browsing Reddit or Tiktok. Since I’ve been on the toilet so often, I have also been sitting there browsing, for upwards of 1 hour a day while blood leaves the brown starfish. The constant pressure of sitting there straining, while also have my cheeks spread like Moses parting the Red Sea, has had some pretty adverse effects. Over the last few days, an intense itching plagued my rear quarters, leading to frequent and desperate trips to the bathroom scratching my anal cavity. This itchy got more and more intense, until yesterday, when it became uncomfortable to sit. Chalking it up to UC, I finally remembered to take my medicine, but it was too late; the damage had been done.

My poor poor asshole was in intense pain. Sitting, even laying down caused a hot dagger to sear through my sphincter, making me shift from cheek to cheek to manage the agony. Still unsure about the severity of my predicament, I decided to shower, and feel around to see the size and density of the engorged mass. While reaching up into my anus, I felt a spherical, hard and painful lump. Poking it caused me to crumple to my knees in the shower, hands clenched as my ass radiated the pain of a thousand suns. I hobbled out of the bathroom, head hung low in shame, realizing the extent of my problems.

I’m now lying in bed typing this, trying to find the right angle for my hemorrhoid. I don’t think I’ll bring my phone into the bathroom ever again.

TL;DR

Today I fucked up by sitting on the toilet browsing social media for too long due to not taking Ulcerative Colitis meds, thus leaving me with a hemorrhoid the size of a small marble, causing unimaginable pain whenever I sit.

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

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 ...
