TIFU: By Pavloving myself into getting an erection every time I hear the “Octonauts” theme song

This TIFU has slowly happened over time, but it’s today that it all culminated into a terrible realization.

My kids don’t watch TV that often. But when they do, they usually choose to watch “Octonauts,” a show about anthropomorphized animals saving ocean life. They love it and it’s guaranteed to bring about 22 minutes of uninterrupted time for me to accomplish whatever I need.

A couple of months ago, I proposed to my wife a quickie while Octonauts was on. 22 minutes was more than we needed (whomp). But anyway, it worked as planned; we had fun with no interruptions.

We’ve done this several more times since then. Octonauts goes on, clothes come off. I’m always the one that puts it on for the kids though, and I didn’t realize that I was slowly conditioning myself to expect getting laid as soon as I heard the opening theme song of the show.

As chance would have it, we had only put on Octonauts for quickies since that first time. In other words, I never put it on just to do some chores around the house or whatever. Just for sex.

So, today, my wife is out of town and I need to clean the kitchen. Usually the kids play fine on their own but they were being rowdy today so I decided to be kind to myself and put on an Octonauts to keep them occupied so that I could clean.

As soon as the theme song started playing I started to get an erection. I couldn’t figure out what was going on. Random boners happen, of course, but I couldn’t help but notice the instantaneous timing of it. Then it hit me.

So, now, I can’t put Octonauts on for the kids just to catch a break anymore. It’s too weird.

Good news, though. I guess if I ever need help getting in the mood, my wife and I can just watch Octonauts while we bang it out.

TL;DR: I slowly conditioned myself to associate sex with a children’s TV show.

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...
