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 Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
