TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by repeating a line from Brooklyn Nine-Nine in front of my daughter...

This actually did happen yesterday.

My wife and I binge-watch family-friendly shows with our 13yo son. Each night, we put our 8yo daughter to bed, and spend an hour on the couch. We've made it through all of Modern Family, Life in Pieces, Big Bang Theory, and Young Sheldon. We are now almost through Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

I don't know whether it is his age or the show, but B99 has been the most quotable among us: my son will refer to himself in the third person like Terry. If he doesn't like what's for dinner, he will say that he would rather "eat flavorless beige smoothies containing all the nutrients required by the human animal". My wife will make "title of your tape" comments. I'll pretend to be Scully or Hitchcock.

Fast-forward to a family gathering last week where my son notices a cheeseboard. He popped a cube of Oka in his mouth and said "oh, that's not what I thought it was". Immediately, I quipped "that's not cheddar, that's just some common Oka". He laughed uncontrollably and my daughter asked what was so funny. We explained that it was from a line in a TV show and carried on with our lives.

She is at a day camp this week which provides lunch in a cafeteria (its run by a bougie private school). Somewhere during the lunch, they passed a sandwich station and she noticed the slices of cheese. Then she commented "that's not cheddar, that's just some common cheese". An older kid behind her in line said, "that's not the quote, its 'you're not Cheddar, you're just some common bitch'". So she asked her camp counselor: "what's a bitch?" and then I got the phone call from the camp director. Ultimately, we got to the bottom of it. The camp director was a little harsher with the older kid, but my daughter got a talking to by staff about using bad language and missed out on the fun swim time. I had to come get her. She doesn't think she did anything wrong, which we agree with. Thankfully, she'll only have two more days at the camp.

TL;DR: daughter copied me in quoting B99 and got in trouble at camp

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. ...
