So I have to travel to this other city in a totally different time zone, and be there on time to register by EOD today, for a conference that starts tomorrow. I had a flight at 7:30 in the morning so I thought I’d just stay up the night (I’m a night owl) and be on time for flight and just sleep on the flight. Well…turns out I dozed off towards 4:30ish..got up around 5:30…rushed to the airport….and still missed the damn flight. My flight was paid for by my boss..who’ll also be there in the conference, and he was expecting me to be early and register us both. Seems like now he will be the one to register us! I requested the airlines front desk and they checked me on to the next flight which is still hours away. Now I’m sitting here in the airport chair, feeling like a piece of shit, embarrassed at myself, and ruminating what should I tell my boss. The coming week was supposed to be eventful for me, but no, what a crappy start! TL;DR didn’t sleep through the night, and overslept in the...

Sound pretty tame, I know, but trust me it’s a bit worse than that. This happened last year. I was flying long distance from the US to Sweden for a holiday. I’ve had plenty of flying experience but I’ve always hated flights as I get sick extremely easily and also tend to get anxious on the plane. My boyfriend sat behind me because we couldn’t get seats together, so I was stuck in the middle seat between a woman and another guy. An hour and a half before landing, I decided to order an instant soup cup because I wasn’t feeling good and pretty hungry. I downed it and half an hour later, the plane began to descend. I was already feeling the anxiety that had lingered for the entire flight. It was extremely bumpy and the turbulence was getting really bad. My stomach was churning and I prayed for the best, but unfortunately, I felt everything in my stomach rising up my throat. I immediately grabbed the vomit bag that was in front of me and within 10 seconds all of the soup that I ingested wa...

I'm typing this from said bus as I'm travelling. Some obligatory context, I'm flying back to Bulgaria to sort out some exams and visit my gf for a bit. Before I can do that though I needed to go to my home town to drop off some stuff with family. Since I knew I would be going to my hometown first, I checked which is the latest bus from the capital, which is 5pm local time and booked my plane ticket around that. That turned out to be a Ryan air flight landing at 3pm. For some reason I have yet to figure out, my flight got delayed by an hour, leading to me getting out of the airport with my luggage around 4:05 pm. At this point I'm panicking because taxis are a scam here, and I don't know the public transport well enough to get there on time. Eventually I just rush onto the metro and find my way to the bus station. I managed to get off the metro and left the underground section at 5:04, and right in front of me is the bus that I needed to catch. At that point my ...

Today, I ruined my professional reputation. I was in an important Zoom meeting with several managers from my company. Everything was going smoothly until I decided to do a quick Google search, thinking only I could see my screen. The problem is that I didn’t realize I was still sharing my screen with all the attendees. The first thing I typed into Google was: “How to resign from a job gracefully.” Almost immediately, I noticed the shocked faces of my coworkers and realized that they could all see what I was doing. Messages started pouring in, and the confused looks filled the screen. My boss sent me a private message asking if everything was okay, and I had to play it off like it was a joke. I still don’t know how I’m going to face my team tomorrow. Never in my life have I wished the ground would swallow me whole more than today. TL;DR:Today I ruined my professional image by accidentally sharing my screen during a work meeting while Googling how to resign gracefully.

TIFU by improperly changing my newborn. I usually put a diaper underneath his current diaper; today I didn't and he peed all over my knee and my fitted sheet 💀 he had already pooped and peed, so I thought he was all done and had his diaper next to him. I usually put the clean diaper underneath his dirty diaper, clean him off, swipe the dirty diaper from underneath him, close the clean one quickly, and roll up the dirty one to discard it. However this time I forgot, and I paid the price for it by getting peed on 🤣 wife told me it was on me and honestly, she's right. TL; Dr I changed my son's diaper differently than usual and got peed on for it. If I made any grammatical errors, please do notify me politely i.e. constructive criticism. I'm not too used to writing paragraphs and have been lacking recently.

I have a Microsoft office 365 account for work. One time probably 2 or 3 years ago I was trying to transfer a spreadsheet from my work account to my home computer, so I logged onto my Microsoft account on my phone. I immediately logged out afterwards and my work requires me to change my password every 3 months. There is zero reason my phone should be connected to my work account still. Well, I read on reddit sometime in the last few years that Bing's video search engine with safe settings off is really good for porn. They were right. I've been using it as my primary porn search engine ever since. This morning I logged onto my work computer and they did a system "upgrade". Anything we had customized on our desktop was reset and they removed all browsers aside from Microsoft Edge for whatever reason. Imagine my surprise when I click the address bar and my entire search history is visible... on my work computer. The worst part about it is that I only ever use bing for ...

So recently, I started going to the playground with my 2-year-old. He loves it – slides, swings, the whole deal. It's been great, especially since he gets tired out, making bedtime a breeze. But... I seriously messed up. It's been getting colder, so he's been wearing longer pants – those soft polyester ones because they're warm. The playground has plastic slides and metal stairs, which means a lot of static electricity gets built up. The first time it happened, he went down the slide, I grabbed his hand to help him off, and zap – static shock. He looked confused but shrugged it off. He goes down the slide again, and zap, it happens again when I grab his hand. Now he's visibly upset, not crying, but giving me that "what the hell, Dad?" look. This has been happening for the past 3-4 playground trips, and now he outright refuses to hold my hand. Every time I reach for him, he says, "Dada, no poke." He still wants to go outside but won't touc...

This did not happen today, but just about a year ago. At the time, my wife and I were married for about a year. My wife and I have very opposite interests, but we both support each other in the things that the other loves. For example, I love going to different conventions, dressing up in costume, meeting celebrities, and checking out the unique merchandise that is sold. My wife is a big football fan, and will never miss a game if she can help it. My wife will come to conventions with me and I'll watch the games with her and occasionally we make it to one in person. A lot of people have questioned our dynamic because of our interests. To distill it down simply, I was a theater kid who wrote for the school newspaper and she played softball and loves football. People asked how on earth we fit together, even my mother, but we balance each other very well and I can't see myself with anyone else. My wife pointed out to me at one point that even if my interests aren't her thi...

So, this happened last night, and I’m still cringing about it. To set the scene, I decided to treat myself to a nice dinner at a fancy steakhouse. But here’s the thing—I wasn’t planning to pay. My sugar momma was supposed to meet me there and pick up the tab. Easy night, right? Wrong. I roll in, order the works—best steak on the menu, loaded sides, the whole deal. It’s looking like a great night. Except my sugar momma? Yeah, she never shows. I’m sitting there like an idiot, staring at this mountain of food, and my phone stays silent. No texts, no calls. She completely ghosted me. Now, here’s where things go sideways. I didn’t exactly have the funds to cover this bougie meal, and there’s no way I’m about to wash dishes or get shamed for dining and dashing. But the food’s already on the table, and that steak looks perfect. I’m not leaving without it. Then I have what I thought was a stroke of genius (in hindsight, it was more like a brain fart). I grab my napkin, wrap that perfectly...

me a 15m and my best friend 15m were at school and we are muslims and we cant be gay its a sin a big sin im not gay by any means but for the last month and a half i been having a big crush on him and i know we cant be togther so im really trying to move on fast but sometimes in class i would be done from the work and look at him and just admire him and about 5 days ago i did it he look at me i blushed real red and looked away then after class he took me to the side and said what was that in class i said nothing what do you mean he look at me and said really that wasnt normal from you and youre being weird for the last month and said i said okey i just look at you and how you changed in the past you were weak and you dont defend your self and now look at you really strong and can get back on people and you started to talk to more people after 3 years of us being friends i think you got far dont you think? he said yeah your right but i think he knows about me little crush and dosent wa...

I woke up early with my wife this morning to see her off to work. She works weekends so I have a lot of alone time and decided I would experiment a little. We have experimented with sounding (inserting objects into the urethra) and I recently purchased a box of those silicone sensory toys that are these brightly colored silicone noodles. They are about 12 inches long and maybe 5/16 of and inch thick, really stretchy and soft. I thought "Hell, I bet that would feel interesting" so I tried it out. Long story short, the noodle was long enough to breach my bladder, which was fine. Then I started losing my erection which caused it to slide deeper in until I couldn't grab it and it completely disappeared. I tried for a bit to massage it out but it kept going further in until I couldn't feel it anywhere anymore. Panic set in a bit and I went to see if I could still pee. All was well... Decided to bang one out (for science) and came just fine. Okay, the things gotta be i...

Throwaway account. I(26M) feel horrible abut something that happened this evening. Walked into a small stall to buy a packaging bag for some goods I had in my hands and the shopkeeper, probably in her 40s was breastfeeding openly while chatting with a few other people, mostly women. I saw her look at me in the eyes and cover herself up before getting me the packaging bag and that's when I realized the FU - I had glanced at her chest (those millisecond-long glimpses) and she obviously noticed. I only noticed that I did this after I'd already done it and it had happened like an instinct. I feel horrible but apologizing wasn't really an option-it would only make things more awkward especially since there were a other few people in the stall. Not sure what to do with myself. TL;DR Accidentally glimpsed at a breastfeeding shopkeeper and I'm not sure what to do with myself rn.

I (18m) am in my first year of college. A friend of mine, Jake (18m), was in highschool and we both ended up at the same college. Within the first week, we hung out a lot and I managed to meet a lot of fellow college students I had been in contact with prior to moving in. One of which was my really good friend Tommy (18m). I am gay, so naturally I attract a lot of fellow queer people--being an an art college doesnt help--in which, both Tommy and Jake are gay. At some point, the two of them ran into each other and spoke. They both, seperately, texted me to say they met the other. Ever since, whenever I see them, they are together and hanging out. You never see Tommy without Jake, or Jake without Tommy. I noticed they were spending a lot of time together, and made a note before moving on. Eventually, our college hosted a fair. I attended, eventually seeing Tommy and Jake aswell. I ended up following the two around, and as i did.. I noticed how in sync they were and how close they seem...

so my school is in a big city, and there's a mall with a grocery store nearby. during lunch break, i went down there to buy a monster energy drink since i felt like having one after all the stress i've been through lately. so i walk down there, go in, buy a monster, and headed back to my school. or at least i was headed back to my school. as i approached the exit door of the mall, a guy came up to me. he spoke in english (and not my country's main language) and told me he came from bulgaria and had no place to sleep, and he needed around 5$ in my country's currency. i honestly wish i had just told him no and walked off, but i felt so pressured and didn't know how to not seem rude. so i ask him if he's got my country's cash transfer app, which he doesn't. i could only give him it in straight cash. so he brought me over to an ATM, and after it didn't work, he made me try another ATM, and i wiped some dirt off my card, it worked. but here's where...

So my shitty day starting by driving my two kids to school and kindergarten. My first mistake was dropping the eldest off at school first, causing her to make a huge scene, "because she wanted to be dropped off last". Big drama. Tears, yelling, the works. Somehow get her sent to school and the other to kindergarten. Drive home to work remotely (pretty standard office work). Decide to play some dota 2 to blow off some steam, while attending our regular weekly meeting. It's a pretty basic meeting that is rarely relevant to my work, as it is basically our head manager relaying broad information from the whole company, but I attend in case something of relevance turns up. About 150 people usually attend. I sign in before the meeting starts, mute my webcam and microphone and queue up a game of dota. As is the case with many video games, things get heated. After about 5 minutes, my lane partner starts flaming me, due to us not agreeing how to play the lane. So I say "it...

Me and my bf had really rough couple of months. The relationship got really messy and toxic, I probably still love him (I can't really think straight right now), but I was thinking about breaking up, so I was preparing a speech and getting ready for it to happen. So, I was in a shower just mumbling, thinking of ways to tell him that. I have this lowkey weird thing when I speak to myself, sometimes I might get emotional and loud. I just start to think out loud literally. So just as I was hitting my emotional peak, he was walking by the bathroom, and of course heard me ranting. He stared at me shocked and asked "Are you breaking up with me in the bathroom?" I tried to play it off like I was speaking with someone on the phone but it didn't work at all. I panicked and just told him everything I was practicing to say 10 minutes ago. I am satisfied with myself that I didn't back down (I mean I did at first but still finished what I started lol) but I am still in shock ...

Simple story, context 21 year old man. Some friends and I were renting an Air B&B, and it was the last day before leaving. I was sweeping the kitchen and my friend was leaning against the wall. I reached the spot she was standing at and I didn't want to make her move since I literally was just going to quickly do one sweep and move on. Not wanting her to move I said "Spread your legs, I need to get in." In my mind I was just asking her to quickly spread her legs/ widen her stance so I can sweep there and then leave, but I suppose that wasn't communicated fully in my statement. She goes "woah" and then starts bursting out laughing. I'm confused. She laughes like a madman, stammers away, making her way to the group, where she repeats what was said and the entire group burst out laughing at me. It's then I realize how what I said could be taken in a different way. I just continue my sweeping as everyone laughs. TL;DR. I was sweeping and told my fr...

For background, I took a pregnancy test because I’ve been feeling funny and it was positive. I already have a 12 year old daughter and 8 year old son so this is going to be my third kid. Since I work from home, I was home alone all day with my husband going to work and my kids going to school. During a morning work meeting, I felt like throwing up and just nauseous in general. This has been going on for a few days now so I took a few tests and I learned I’m pregnant. I was going to tell my husband as soon as he got home but my kids come home before him so I planned to keep it a secret from them until I’m ready to tell them. A few hours after I took the test, my son came home then my daughter did an hour later. She went to my bathroom to borrow my moisturizer and she found my pregnancy test right on the counter. She ran downstairs holding the test and quickly asking me if it’s true. My son overheard the whole thing and wanted my answer so bad. I told them it was true and my daughter ...

Today I fucked up on a presentation. I am a master’s student and was presenting our project in front of 60 other students. I was a bit nervous and had to rush it because I had a limited time. So while I was attempting to read “Tech disruption” I have instead said DICK!! I quickly corrected it to “tech” and pretended like nothing happened and continued on. I literally felt like the world was collapsing and was upset and embarrassed about it all day. And if it makes it any worse, I’m a female. People seemed sleepy as I was in the last group presenting, so I don’t know if many people noticed it. I also asked two of my group if they have noticed anything about my presentation but apparently they haven’t. TL;DR I said the word dick instead of tech while presenting in front of 60 people

Hello everyone, I just really need to just type my thoughts away. And because I fucked up I thought this subreddit would fit best. So I (19M) have a half-sister (26F) from my dad’s side who has borderline personality disorder. When I was around 15 she did a few things that deeply hurt my feelings. She lied to my mom and told her all sorts of false things about me. I don’t know why but I never was able to let it go. I saw her manipulate people I love around me and just tried to get attention whenever someone in my family wanted to share their success. I had thought about cutting her off a few times but never did because my family invites her to events. (I also want to quickly add that she hangs out with the family from my mom’s side, which isn’t her biologically family. Also important to note that my mom became her stepmother when my sister was 2 years old.) So yesterday I turned 19. And we had a small conversation via text. I was pretty cold towards her because I just didn’t want to ...

This has been bothering me and I need to vent. I have a wide array of interests when it comes to adult content. I was on a reddit group involving moms and sons. I am fully aware that it's not real, and that's the point. It's a dumb fantasy and I like sexy mature women. While on the group, I followed a link to a discord group that I believed would basically be a cougar/milf type group. When I joined the discord, every channel was locked, requiring registering on a website. It seemed strange to me, like a possible scam, so I closed the window and went on my way without even accessing the group. The next day, I received a message saying I was locked out of Discord for three days because that discord contained content involving minors. I was horrified and disgusted. I want nothing to do with kiddie p**n and now even been that close to me is haunting me. TLDR: Joined a discord that unknowingly turned out to contain kiddie p**n, leaving me horrified and dusgusted.

This happened a good 10 years ago, but I've been way too embarrassed to even think about posting it here. I guess today is the day. I used to rent a house in a sleepy suburban part of town. Quiet street, pretty rare to see anyone walking around sort of place. The entire block was single family homes. One such quiet day, early October if I remember right, took my dog out for his morning walk. As we get to the top of the street, I see a dense plume of smoke coming out of the corner house's chimney. I knew the tenants who used to live at this place and was happy when they moved out (their dog attacked my dog at one point) - thought it was a bit weird since I thought the place was unoccupied. I kept walking but for some reason my brain really found the whole thing unusual, so I turned around and went back for another look. It smelled a lot like wood burning and the amount of smoke got me worried. I knocked on the door.. No response. Knocked again and waited.. No one came to the...

My (29F) boyfriend "Alex" (28M) have been together for 3 years and living together for over 2. We both agree on and plan to get married, but we want to be more financially stable first. We've never had a fight, just a few very calm disagreements and our communication is great 99.9% of the time. This is all to establish that as far as I can tell we have a very healthy relationship and I'm not totally crazy for doing this. I have a tendency to plan out things that I want to say in my head, but have a terrible memory, so I write them down. I'm also one of those people who always dreamed of getting married. I was single for a lot of my young adult life and had started to be convinced it would never happen. Then I met Alex and was absolutely blown away by happiness. I've never known love like this and we've weathered a few complex life events with no problems. My friends and family love him, his friends and family love me, aside from normal life chaos things ...

I’m stupid (21m), from the birth I have defective penis, it was not so bad, just short frenulum, Peyrone disease, fordice spots with hairs growing from my trunk and some scar tissue on foreskin. But I realise that recently when too late. I even didn’t try meet the girl cause I feel my self defective, instead of that I fall in porn addiction and edging too much ( 45min average for session ) With years my frenulum is covered with tears. And recently I’ve got varicose on dick. I gave it 1 day break and idk what came over me, but after I fap 4 times almost in a row. How could I do something so stupid. After that I felt something under my groin, like the underskin vein was damaged ( felt like bruise ), The swollen vein on the trunk become even larger and today if I strain it becomes pale / drained of blood. Also my trunk got covered with little and thin new varicose veins. TL;DR : I have defective dick from the birth but actually it was not so bad and now I regret that I did not appreci...

My mom and I were returning from a trip this past weekend and she had been coughing quite a bit during the 7 hour drives. She had just come back from a theme park the week before, so it was safe to assume she caught something out there. As a precaution, I gave her a Covid test last night and found it was positive. At this point though, we had all been vaccinated and boosted at least 2 times each, so the next day, we masked up and went about our business. We’re in the process of moving and the new house still needs a lot of work. I went to my job for a quick shift. My throat was starting to become sore, but I figured that with a day off the next day, if I was to get any worse, I’d have a whole day to be REALLY sick and could make the call if I couldn’t come in afterwards. But aside from the sore throat, I was fine. I wore a tight mask and used my personal bottle of sanitizer more frequently. A customer tried to call in an order over the phone twice. The first time, my co-worker answ...

Hi everyone. So basically i got tired of craning my head down to look at my laptop so I thought getting a monitor would be a neat decision to elevate my academic life. My mother had two Samsung monitors which according to her stopped working because the adapter gave out. She generously offered them to me to fix up. I first tried using the adapter, and the image didn’t transfer like she said. From there i ordered a 50 dollar adapter to see if the monitor was also an issue. This was two weeks ago. An hour ago I tried the new adapter and nothing happened. Defeated, I looked to Reddit for answers and in an image post I noticed the monitor had two cables attached. I couldn’t be… I went digging for a cable that matched the one in the image I saw. Plugged it in. Guess what the hell happened. It turned on, a beautiful aquamarine light is now blinking at the bottom of the monitor where it wasn’t before. The endless black ocean that was once the screen is now replaced with a giant image of...

Last week, my mother had my cousins down to the house to stay. I wasn't entirely excited about this as it was going to be an extremely hectic two weeks for me at work. I was retroactively denied time off due to understandable circumstances, and my workload was about to triple, but I had it in writing that I was likely going to get the newly available supervisor role with this trial period went great. Massive pay bump too. What this meant was I wasn’t going to be able to see my gaming cousins much, which was an absolute bummer, but I still had some evenings we could talk. At least, I thought that was going to be the case. Anytime I got home after work, they were in the spare room together gaming with each other on their Switches. I was able to join in on their LAN games, but they never once left the room unless it was for the bathroom or something. I never asked anyone why they kept to the room. It just didn’t cross me. In my house, when the door is closed, they want privacy. Adm...

I already know I fucked up huge, I just want to get it out For a little background I'm a recovering alcoholic, four months sober now. So I obviously had a problem, and I ended up getting really sick and he had to take me to the hospital. For the first week he stayed with me every day but eventually he had to go back to work and I was pretty upset because I didn't want to be alone in the hospital and we argued about it a lot. Then I found out after a few days he had missed a week of work after he left the hospital. We'd been texting but he hadn't responded as much as usual and his cousin had called me to ask if he was ok, and I didn't know he had been missing work. I called him and he sounded bad, like really sick. He said he hadn't smoked cigarettes or weed in over a week and he hadn't been able to eat or drink anything without getting sick. I told him to go to the doctor but he said we couldn't afford it since I was already sick in the ICU. I was pre...

This actually happened a year and a half ago yada yada Sophomore year of college, I (M19) had a thing for a friend of mine (F20). Already bad move as she was the it-girl, but anyway I normally would have asked her out but I held myself back because we were both part of our student government and I didn't want to cross pollinate (overregulating myself harder than SF zoning law I know I know) I complain about this case of affairs to a different friend (M22). About a week and a half later me and my crush are hanging out she drops the "guess who I went on a date with?" outta nowhere Somehow first guess I guessed my other friend, she says yeah. I laughed just a wee bit too hard. Guess I should tell you my guy friend is like objectively hot, I ain't even gay but he's fine as fuck. I was kinda putting 2 and 2 together in my head She said "what's so funny" My dumbass fessed up at that point, couldn't think of an adequate lie "If I had like...

No, it’s not the kind of situation where you call your teacher “mom” in school as a child, there’s so much more here. So I have a friend who is having a baby, she’s a few years older than me, very caring and supportive, the typical mom friend. She supported me through every single problem I’ve had since we met, she’s always by my side. My mother is a piece of shit. She’s dismissing, emotionally abusive and neglectful and she turned me into a fucked up adult with mommy issues who struggles with social relationships and multiple mental health issues. Of course she never supported me, but since I have the friend in question I’ve been suffering less from my mother wounds as I found some to replace her. I was talking to said friend, she confessed her worries about not being a good mother to her child and possibly cause them irreparable trauma so, in order to reassure her, I told her she’s born to be a mother, she really loves the baby she’s expecting, she’s always there for people and s...

Well if there ever was a case for bad timing, bad luck, and bad sex, this would be it… I (25M) met a woman (24F) on Tinder and after some time talking, invited her over to my place for some dinner and to play some games of Mario Kart. We added a twist where for each race a person loses, they must remove one article of clothing. What ended up ensuing was multiple competitive rounds, but in the end I won. From there things escalated very quickly and progressed from making out, to both our clothes coming off, eventually reaching the point of us having sex. Here’s where the fuck up of the fuck down comes in: In the middle of it things were rough and heavy, and she starts to say her lips are getting itchy, and while this is happening I can see her breasts, thighs, and many other parts start to turn red. We stop and she asks me if the dinner we had, had any sort of seafood in it, and that she has a severe allergy to fish. It was not in the dinner, but in all of that I remember that I had...

So, this happened earlier today, and I’m still dying of embarrassment. I work in an office where we use a messaging app for communication (you know, typical corporate stuff). I’ve always been super careful with who I’m messaging, but today I managed to make the mother of all mistakes. I have a friend who also works in the same company, and we’ve been passing the time by sending each other funny GIFs throughout the day to keep our spirits up. You know the ones — ridiculous, sometimes a little inappropriate, but all in good fun. Anyway, I was in the middle of a boring workday when I came across the perfect GIF for my friend. It was this clip of a cat slapping another cat while the words "Shut the F*** Up" flashed across the screen. A little aggressive, but hilarious in context (we’d just been talking about how annoying someone in the office was being). I clicked on the GIF, hit send, and immediately continued with my work like nothing had happened. A few minutes later, I s...

The title says it all honestly, I accidentally forgot to add a source in my term paper. It wasn't a very important one but still. I wrote my Professor an email and she said she cannot accept another correction, as I in a panic already resubmitted it once due to formal errors. I resent her an email telling her that I was missing a source and of course apologising, which she has yet to respond to. Needless to say I am very worried and basically planning under what bridge I will be sleeping after getting thrown out of university. My paper is not even good! I honestly hate it do death and was sick the last two days I spent writing, so I kinda already thought I was failing this class but this is so much worse. TL;DR: accidentally plagarised, trying to fix it, wish me luck, I'll need it.

There was a girl in high school that transferred in halfway through 10th grade. Let’s call her Kimmy. We hit it off immediately and progressed with our flirtation until summer break. For whatever reason we didn’t talk much during the summer even though cell phones and myspace were a thing (summer of 2006; no Facebook yet). When we returned to school in 11th grade things picked up right where they left off but it almost seemed like the time apart did something to us because it progressed rapidly. By the end of the first month of 11th grade I was feeling her up in math class, undoing her bra from behind so that I could reach up from under her shirt and fondle her boobs whenever the teacher was at his desk and couldn’t see us. We 100% would have started fucking within the next couple weeks, however I ended up getting myself expelled due to an unrelated incident and everything came crashing to a halt. We originally were texting for the few days afterwards but the incident was so notorious...

I, 13M, was hanging out at a park w friends and we were goofing around not thinking much of it, and another group at the park was around 5 girls and a guy who giggled everytime I went by. At some point one of the other groups girls yelled "MY FRIEND FINDS U ATTRACTIVE" to me while gesturing at the guy. At this point I froze up since this was the first time ever I had been given a compliment by another gay guy. The rest of the time I was trying to gather courage to go up there and ask for his number, but eventually saw them leaving and it was too late. That was tow days ago and now I'm wondering if something like that will ever happen again, I mean it's happened only once in 13 years and openly gay guys at this age aren't all too common and I fear they might not find me attractive at all. I know it sounds stupid but I just feel so alone out here, the two times I've felt close to having a relationship one guy was lying about being gay as a cruel joke and the ot...

I wanted to grab a cd as a gift for a close friend that I used to go to music festivals with a few years ago, they really liked DeadMau5 I went into the little music shop and asked for Dead Maw Five, they looked visibly confused. I said “it’s the little dj dude with the mouse head” they looked at each other and smiled and said “you mean Dead MOUSE” I said no.. they wrote it out on the whiteboard behind them. It then hit me that it was just some weird spelling for dead mouse, like a spelling for a username I let go of my pride and caved in and realized my wrongs. I said “yeahithinkthatsit” while they kept giggling. They kindly showed me to the section, and I left with my mind blown for not catching onto it sooner. TL;DR I didn’t understand some weird spelling for an artist’s name and embarrassed myself in pronunciation

My parents emigrated few decades ago and it's been a while since the whole family has been together. The trip back to our country is too expensive and we are not well off, so we can't go as much as we'd like. My elder sibling has decided to spend their birthday and christmas there for the first time in twenty years, and my other sibling is also spending a few weeks there for work reasons. I had some money saved and decided to buy tickets for my parent and me as a surprise to spend the birthday and christmas with everyone, but ended up selecting the wrong return date. I did not find out until it the transaction was already complete. Now we are returning on the 24th and missing christmas, and changing the ticket would be too expensive now. TL;DR: I picked up the wrong return date when buying my plane ticket and now I'm leaving on christmas eve.

TIFU when I thought I'd take my kayak out in the bay for some exercise and air therapy. I checked wind and the weather and it's looked like a great way to spend a Friday morning, but what I didn't do was read the tide chart. I parked, unloaded my stuff, and put my kayak in the water. Went for a paddle, saw some birds, saw some seals, generally had a very pleasant time. I'm making my back and when I get to the beach it's basically all gone. Apparently it's a super high tide, the peak of which happens to be a little while from now still. The road out of where I parked is completely submerged and now I'm trapped here for a few hours at least. I have some weed, water, and a granola bar. Wish me luck 🤞 TL:DR didn't check the tides and am now trapped for at least a few hours

A friend got me to reinstall and play GTA V Online again a few weeks ago, since he bought a new copy for himself since it was fully compatible with his Steam Deck (a hand held pc that uses Linux instead of windows). He had previously had it on Playstation. We played for the past few weeks. Well about a week ago, after we are done heisting, I shoot him in game. The game had put a bounty on him for leaving my motorcycle club. I also hunt down our other friend who was with him, for the lolz. I expect the other friend to retaliate, so I put down proximity mines behind me as I go hide in the mineshaft. What I did not know is that there are cryptids (big foot) hidden in game, and that he was looking for one. Going in the mineshaft to find the cryptid, he runs into the proximity mine and gets killed. He gets angry and quits the game for a few days. I feel like an Asshat, so while I wait for him to return to the game, I do the setup missions (which are mostly annoying) for all the heists, e...

Last night I made an impulsive decision to shave off my beard. I have had the beard the majority of my adult life and last time I shaved was 6 years ago, this was before I'd lost 70kg so I thought, see what I look like now. This morning I got up and walked out to see my kids, I called that I had a surprise for them.. My 3 year old looked at me for a second said "What you did daddy? " and then promptly whimpered and started hiding from me behind his mum. Took a good 20 minutes to coax him out to come and see me up close. My 5 year old wouldn't talk to me and kept hiding behind his arm when I got close.... They are both now talking to me at least, though I'm not sure they are terribly impressed. I mean, it's nice to see I have somewhat of a jawline now, and it's passable and I don't look awful, compared to how much I hated not having the beard when I was at my biggest, but, I think I'll go back to the beard, it does suit my face better. I look a...

I bought a 80 x 32 inch door hoping it would fit in my 2023 Camry. I was skeptical but I went ahead and bought it and it fit perfectly with the seats folded down. So if anyone is wondering, you CAN fit a whole door in your Camry as long as you have short legs. I don’t, so my drive home was awkward and totally worth it. I got the door to replace my garage door so I could add a cat door. During all my excitement, I forgot to lock my car. (Live in the suburbs of Austin). Then my dumbass cut a hole in the top of the door instead of the bottom, so now I have a nice door with a properly installed cat door and a giant hole at the top :). icing on the cake…the one night I forget to lock my doors, someone rummaged through my car, took my credit card and approximately $60 cash, spent almost $400 at Walmart on chocolate milk, makeup, men’s pants and shirts, 2 $105 gift cards, and I’m pretty sure they stole my AirPods. Kicker is I was in the garage around the time I think this happened, I stay up...

I’m majoring in a STEM major that really stresses me out, makes me unhappy, but I do it for scholarships because I was really averted to taking student loans to go to college. My classes for this major really stress me out, I’ve failed calculus twice, am always generally just bad at math and computer courses. The other day, I decided to download Grindr to look for hookups. Still not sure why I did it. Maybe an attempt to cope with stress, maybe a desire to socialize in some way, maybe I wanted validation from people, maybe I was just horny. I downloaded Grindr, set my pfp to a provocative image of me with my face cropped out, and then I noticed that there were people a few hundred feet away, one person who matched with me. I recognized the person who matched with me, made me nervous, but we talked some, I sent a face pic, and kept trying to make non-lewd small-talk conversation, and then without warning, they disappeared from my messages and favorites. I guess I was blocked. He said h...

I'm a South Asian man with an Arabic name, living in the USA. People in general struggle to understand my name and pronounce it right. Majority of my formal introductions is spent on repeating my name hopelessly, and spelling it out. For situations involving where I need to be introduced to people I'll likely never see again (service workers, wait staff, etc), I just say "Hi, I'm Adam Smith" My white husband has a very common white name. He's fine with me using his name. We needed to resolve a plumbing issue. I introduced myself as Adam Smith. He looked at me up and down, and said, "You don't look like an Adam Smith." He got very uncomfortable and started checking his phone. I assured him he was fine and safe, and was at the right house. He got the job done and left real quick. TL;DR: I'm a brown guy with a brown name, and introduced myself with a very common white man's name to a plumber and made him very nervous.

To be clear, this happened about last year but i still think about it because Spanish is the language of all time. For context, i'm a Venezuelan-American. I was born in the US but i was actually raised in Venezuela for about the first 10 years of my life, this mainly consisted of visiting the family over the summer vacation (although i did spend one full year there when i was three, in fact my earliest memory ever is of my uncle tricking me into drinking beer at age 3 in a town called El Tigre). Obviously because of this upbringing i grew up fluent in both English and Spanish. The thing about Spanish though is that when you learn it, you're learning it, you're learning a specific version of it. English has it's regional differences too but at least in my experience it's not as big. Though the Spanish i speak is Venezuelan, growing up i at least knew that Colombians call beans "frijoles" instead of "caraotas" and that Spaniards use the "vos...

Me (27) Was woken up today by drilling and went downstairs and saw two guys with a ladder drilling the wall in the corridor between the back door and the garage door. I didn't know what they were doing but when I came back one of them asked if the front light needed doing or not and I said I didn't know. I just assumed that step dad had arranged for them to come round. My brother (29) was here too and he must've let them in. I didn't ask him who they were and since he didn't have a problem I assumed he knew about them. So I went back upstairs and then took a nap. Later around 5pm mom came back from work and asked why was the kitchen floor dirty and I told them some guys were doing something with the lights. She was confused cos she said she didn't know anything about anyone coming to do work today. I said I assumed step dad had arranged them. Then step dad came back and he didn't know about them either. So according to everyone there was just two random ...

My classes for the rest of the day got cancelled so I was bored and had nothing to do so I decided to go shopping. I was on a kind of tight schedule because I had to be back by a certain time but I decided to go anyway. First of all I thought the place I was going was a 20-30 minute ride away but it was a while and we still weren’t there so I checked and it was actually a 50 minute drive. So that was 50 minutes already wasted. I finally got there and it’s like a 15 minute walk to the store I wanted to go to so I went there and bought some stuff, and I was sweating a shit ton when I was walking outside because it was warmer than I expected it to be and I was wearing a sweatshirt and a jacket. I wasn’t wearing a shirt underneath for some reason and I was genuinely feeling like I was gonna pass out so I had to go out of my way to buy a shirt to wear. So I went into a store and bought like the first shirt I saw and I went and changed into it and it was way too big on me but I had already...

Hello Everyone. I am not sure how updating works, but after the many responses I received yesterday I just wanted to keep you all in the loop of the situation. I asked the Mods if I was allowed to post an update and they agreed (Thank you Mods) If you don't know me > here < is my post from yesterday - Firstly, please can I thank everyone in the comments showing support and sharing your own stories. Thank you. I honestly thought, and still do to some extent, that I have f'ed up and failed my daughter. I thought her need to protect came from the fact she had seen me so broken. A comment which I have now lost said something along the lines of "mummy got hurt by bad people, and now her friend is being threatened, so she wanted to stand up for us". As honourable as that is, I don't want my little girl to feel that way. I want her to be a child for as long as she can be. I want her to play with her friends and have no cares in the world apart from who's ...
