TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU by missing the LSAT

Technically didn't miss it, I was at my desk at 9:30, but managed to fuck up every single step this morning.

The writing sample for the LSAT opens earlier than the test so I did that section last week, no problem. Except I thought the program they used for the writing sample was the same as the one for the regular test. Because why check literally any of the instructions in my email? So I was downloading the proctoring program at 9:27am for my 9:30am exam. Fuckup number one.

I get into the security clearance section at 9:36 or something and I immediately get connected to a proctor so I'm thinking alright rough start but it can only be smooth sailing from here.

"Can you show me the front and back of your scrap paper?"

Didn't know I was allowed scrap paper. I was planning on rawdogging this anyways. Fuckup number two.

I go through the room scan and everything and she asks if I know my LawHub username and password so I can access the test. I say yes because I use like four variations of the same password for everything. So I proceed to the test.

Yeah I in fact did not know my password. And got locked out of the account. So they told me to exit and reenter after contacting the help desk. And by the time I was able to get back in it was too late.

So now after all that I'm out $200 and am embarrassed at myself. Hoping schools don't see this massive fuckup of mine and use that to blacklist me. The silver lining to all of this is that I purposefully did not tell anyone I was taking it today, so at least I don't have to explain myself to family and friends. But still, I want to kick myself for wasting my time and money. Now I have to figure out which schools will accept an April LSAT.

TL;DR: Did absolutely every single step wrong and/or late the morning of my LSAT due to just not being a proactive person. Kicking myself.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
