TIFU by accidentally getting my mom high

So this happened last month, but no better place to put it than here. I (30M) am on vacation at Universal Studios in Orlando for my birthday, with my boyfriend (33) and my friend who works there (27). While we’re there, my parents stay at our apartment in NYC. Boyfriend stays behind from riding Velocicoaster, and when friend and I get our phones from the lockers after, I find that my dad has called me about 4 times. I call him back, and he tells me that my mother ate some sort of chocolate that was left in the fridge, and “now we can’t tell if she’s having a stroke or a heart attack or if she needs to go to the hospital”. I start freaking out, mostly because we did have an old bar of (I think German?) chocolate that we left half-eaten, so I was terrified it may have been genuine food poisoning. Dad keeps talking while I calm down, until I realize he’s fucking with me a bit and that actually Mom ate some leftover weed chocolate that we’d gotten from friends when we did edibles a while ago. This is not NYC weed, this is California weed; when boyfriend and I tried it (my first time ever getting high, btw) we each had a quarter of one square, approx 5mg, and were feeling it for at least 24 hours. I find out from Dad that Mom are 2 ENTIRE SQUARES of this chocolate, so 40mg at least, and on top of this she had made plans to go out to dinner with friends and see a Broadway show that night. (She now says that she needs to go see The Outsiders again, she barely remembers any of it.) When we called her the next night she said she was fine and it had all worn off, but the night after that, she informed us that she’d been lying about that and just didn’t want to worry us. Now it’s one of the funniest things that I think has ever happened to me.

TL;DR: Mom got extremely high on a friend’s edible chocolate, staying at my apartment while I was on vacation. She had at least 40mg of California weed, proceeded to have dinner with friends and see a Broadway show, and didn’t come down from her high for at least 30-35 hours. No consequences, just an amazing story.

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 sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
