TIFU by getting our puppy stoned out of her mind.

I can’t tell anyone in my life about this because me and my fiancé will look like ducking idiots.

Our six month old Corgi was suuuuuper sleepy around 5 pm last night, snuggling up to us. Which is rare as she’s usually very active, alert and playful. Especially since she slept well and didn’t go on any walks. There was no reason to be this tired.

We woke her up and her head was swaying when she looked at anything, she had a hard time keeping it up. Hmmm. She started walking and her movements looked wasted. Stumbling all over, almost falling. We prevented her from falling off the couch. She had a hard time peeing without falling over. I started freaking out and getting very concerned. We’ve had nearby animals act similar and thought it was distemper.

I tripped balls. Called the emergency vet. We rushed her over and I was very stressed out and thought I was gonna cry.

Eventually we brought her in - explained all of her symptoms, explained about the other animals and what we thought happened.

She asks us if we keep marijuana in the house. Yes we do. Without skipping a beat the technician tells us, “I’m 90 per cent sure this puppy is high.”

It makes complete sense and was something I never even considered for a second. Vet checks it out, basically says very similar things. Says dogs like to eat ash from weed (which we ash on our porch sometimes). The advice was to just wait a couple of hours and it’ll wear off, and protect her from falling in the meantime.

We were sooo relieved you don’t even know, but also felt so stupid. We pay $200 and leave. Puppy sleeps for hours and hours more on the couch and now she’s fine this morning.

Tl;dr- saw our puppy acting strange, took her to the vet in a panic and realized she got stoned as fuck.

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...
