TIFU by making my sister think she is possessed

I'm 17 and live with my Grandparents and sister (14).

My grandparents have really strict rules on technology and they are generally against phones, especially during night time. They keep my phone in their room still. Obviously this is stupid so I got a burner phone ages ago, meaning I keep my phone in my room without their "permission".

So here I am at 3 AM still awake, dead silent. Went to the bathroom and pissed and then started scrolling on Tik Tok as you do.Land on some video, "Driving with Boyfriend Car Crash ASMR dying sounds". I turn up the volume a notch and it is just violent screaming and car crash noises, hilarious I know.

Suddenly I hear footsteps approaching, but it's too late. Whoever it is, is at the door of the bathroom and is trying to open it (it's locked).

I hear them stand still, and I manage to turn the volume on my phone down after literally 2 seconds of screaming.

The footsteps walk away. My instinct is this was my Grandpa and he knows that I was on my phone during the night. So I kind of accept my fate and walk back into my room quietly.

The next day my sister brings up to my grandparents that she heard screaming in our bathroom during the night, and that the door was locked. She is really freaked out as she has been having nightmares a lot recently too.

My grandparents are mildly concerned about the whole thing and ask me if I was in the bathroom. I say no and kind of just blow off the whole thing as some strange demonic vision my sister got.

If my grandparents know what I did, they will probably take away my phone completely. Which is just unfair blah blah blah

My grandparents want to follow up on the whole situation after, further questioning my sister. So if I tell my sister that the screaming was me, she will have to cover up for me (which will make my grandparents suspicious of the whole thing).

I honestly don't know what is going.

TL;DR: Watching Tik Tok in bathroom in the middle of the night, the Tik Tok video was loud screaming. My sister tried to use the bathroom and heard the loud screaming. She thinks she is possessed and I can't tell anybody it was me, because my grandparents are control freaks and I will get in trouble for using my phone at night.

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...
