TIFU by calling the police

TIFU when I was out on my balcony around midnight and saw a flashing light coming from under a car. It seemed to be flashing in a pattern so I thought it might be someone's phone and went down to see if I could give it to the owner who probably dropped it.

So I put my coat on and went down to have a look but couldn't see too well cos it was dark. What I saw was a small silver tube with a flashing light and a black wire coming from it going into a car. I walked away thinking what the fuck is that? I was thinking it's not a car part why would it be flashing. Could have been a vape but they don't flash like that cos they only flash like that if they're wasted and you take a puff of it.

I live opposite a school and thought I'm not going back to poke around at it but I'll call the police to check it out as if it is a bomb who knows when it could go off and kids could get hurt.

So I called them the moved me to a recorded line and took a statement and I was like shit this is pretty serious. They sent a car within 5 minutes I waited outside to see what it was spoke to the guards and said I don't know what it is but I just thought it would be best to be safe than sorry.

As they're walking up to the car my heart is like holy shit what if this is a bomb!? Turns out it was a vape pen and a stick!

I wasted all of those people's valuable time on a VAPE PEN and A STICK!!! I WANT TO DIE!

TL;DR I called the police thinking there may be a device under a car and it was just a large vape pen and a stick

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 ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
