TIFU by not cracking eggs into a separate bowl

This just happened to me and I am posting in order to help process and take my mind off the nausea I am experiencing because of it.

My husband loves homemade turkey burgers and I hadn’t made them for awhile. I usually use a pound of ground turkey to make four, but I figured since they’re so popular in my family I’d make a big batch this time and freeze some, so I bought three pounds of turkey. I got out everything I needed and put it on the counter. Put all three pounds of the turkey into a mixing bowl, then got three eggs to crack into them. Cracked the first two and nothing unusual happened. Cracked the third one and a weird, gray sludge fell out all over the turkey, and then the smell hit me. The egg was rotten.

For some reason, my immediate instinct was to try to salvage the turkey, so I threw a colander in the sink and dumped the contents of the mixing bowl into it and turned on the cold water. By now I am gagging and heaving at the smell, and because I’m doing this in a panic, I’m not thinking clearly, and the running water from the faucet splashes the rotten egg sludge and raw turkey juice all over the sink and surrounding area and my face and shirt. I still somehow do not vomit but can’t stop gagging. I realize this second mistake and shut the water off as the smell seems to grow stronger. I balanced the colander over the mixing bowl and tried to quickly get it across the kitchen to the trash bin as I realized it’s dripping all over the floor so the area that will need to be sanitized/destroyed in a fire has grown. While I’m dumping the mix into the trash, I am shaking and gagging and accidentally drop it so it splashes all over our garbage and recycling bin area.

I got the containers back into the sink, put all the recycling bin contents into the trash bin, got everything to the outdoor bin and then came back inside still gagging and started cleaning up. Everything has now been sanitized, myself included, but my heartbeat still hasn’t returned to normal and I feel like I will never eat food again, especially not eggs or ground turkey.

TL;DR: always crack your eggs into a separate vessel instead of directly into your other food.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
