TIFU by forgetting how loud my voice is

I’m a 25 year old MTF trans women that works as a merchandiser for a giant drink manufacturer.

While stocking the shelves at a grocery store, my co worker asks if I’m offended by questions about my transitioning. I inform him I’m not and the questions come out.

I’ve always had a loud voice, yet I do try and control it. When giving presentations for school projects I never needed a mic. You could hear me across a football stadium tium and to me, I have no idea I’m talking that loud.

His main question was,” Did you choose to be trans, or did it just happen?”

This is fairly common and I always reply,” No, it happened during puberty I started to feel this way. I grew up in upper central Texas, so it wasn’t forced on me at all either. My balls dropped and my body urged me to get pregnant.”

He asked if that was all it was and this is where I fucked up. I wasn’t thinking about it, but this fact I’m rather embarrassed by so I get closer to him. Internally I think,” now I whisper,” but instead I speak normally as if we didn’t get closer with my voice traveling. I then tell him

“Im so out of it when I wake up in the morning and go to the bathroom, in the dream I’m a women so naturally I sit down and piss everywhere cause I don’t realize it’s even there.”

He laughs a bit, but not 10 seconds later the store manager comes over and says,” can you keep your voice down? Im in the other isle and suddenly just hear,” I forget I have a dick and piss everywhere.”

I’m now in my car, extremely embarrassed, typing this all out. I want to physically die…….. why can’t I have a normal voice.

TL;DR I forgot how loud my voice was and loudly said,” I forget I have a dick and piss everywhere in the morning!”

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...
