TIFU by telling my girlfriend I would probably do bad things in Westworld.

My girlfriend asked me if I would do bad things in Westworld. I won't go into what exactly she asked because there are certain rules in this sub reddit, but she basically asked me if I would do bad things. The conversation took place via WhatsApp.
I've only seen the first episode of Westworld so far, but from my understanding, it's a game world where you can do whatever you want as a human in god mode, almost like GTA only that you're inside as a real person.

I thought about it for a second and thought to myself "Okey, so the last time I played GTA I did bad things there too. Now the game is just more realistic. Would I still do bad things? I don't know. I probably would." Then I answered her in roughly the same way.

She then asked a few times for details. But I didn't realize that she was upset. I thought she was just asking out of interest. While I was chatting with her, I played a game on the side. I tried to imagine what it would be like in Westworld. Then the question came up of what I would do if I were God in real life. I just answered: I have no idea.

Suddenly she starts insulting me and ends the relationship, blocking me everywhere. We had only been together for two months, but I actually thought it was going reasonably well. I really didn't expect that. She actually meant a lot to me. And now it's just over. And even if she comes back to me: the way she insulted me, I don't think we can work things out again.

TL;DR: My girlfriend broke up with me because I thoughtlessly said that I would probably do bad things in Westworld.

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...
