TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by a proverb about "someone at age 70 is practically dead" and all this happened on my wife's grandma's 70th birthday

This has not happened today, was about 15 years ago, and some of you probably read my viral story about a haunted laptop, I am not native english speaker so there will be grammar and language mistakes here and there.

I was working late on a Saturday afternoon, when my wife's grandma's 70th birthday party happened.

I was driving from my workplace to "grandma's" house, tried to be quick, and I found myself behind an old lady with a red Skoda 105. I was not able to overtake her for about a good 20 minutes on a narrow road, and followed her at a speed of about 10mph/15kmh on a road that you could go by 50. I was very angry, and probably shouting in my car all the way there, as got a text message from my wife that they are waiting for me to get the birthday cake out and sing the "Happy birthday" together. I told them I will be there in 15 minutes and about 20 already gone, I was still miles away...

Finally I got there, they were not happy, about 20 people been waiting over half an hour only because I am late. That part of the family is very strict if it's about timing... I was not new to the family, but I was not liked by most of them, because one of my ex girlfriend worked for them and told them nasty stories about me that was not true, just because jealousy. It was about drugs, beating women's, etc that was not at all involved in my life... So they were generally not happy for my attendance anyway. Only few people knew me and that was my wife, her mother, her father... The others I think believed everything that they were told, so I was the devil...

I was step in the room, the whole house went silent, and I felt a bit uncomfortable, and said this proverb out loud: "I am so sorry I am late, but there was an old lady between 70 and death driving so slow and I was stuck behind her..." well.... I probably heard a spider in one of the corner hiding away into a wall crack, then a fly trying to escape through a window behind the curtains, but that was it for a very long about 10 seconds ... Only person tried to hold a bit of laugh back was my mother in law, but I am sure she felt my pain also when I looked on the long laid table and there was a big birthday cake with a huge 70 sign on the middle of it...

Needless to say the party got a bit ruined by me and it took me about 5 years from that moment to prove everyone I am not a bad person...

TL;DR There is a saying in my country, in Hungary: "Between 70 and death", and I used this proverb on a 70th birthday party

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
