TIFU and it all started with a door

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 late…and while I was in there I swear I heard leaves crunching and voices outside, but thought maybe it was someone walking by talking on the phone at 1am?? Dumb..Probably a sign for me to check if my car was locked. PROBABLY the person in my car telling their friend they finally found someone dumb enough to leave their card door open. Hindsight is 20/20. I’ve always had an issue leaving my stuff in my car because I don’t carry a purse. Will definitely be working on that. The worst part for me personally was I had two red tail hawk feathers I found over 7 years ago, I kept these in my console and they broke one in their rush to steal my things, maybe that’s silly, maybe I’m weird. What a great day!

P.S. fu to the person who did that, I’ve tried all day to stop myself from setting up some kind of booby trap, but unfortunately they are all illegal :) I hope your chocolate milk is spoiled, and it spills all over the new pants you bought. I hope you went to another store, loaded up your cart and tried to check out and it got DECLINED. I’m sure that’s why you got the gift cards tho, so what’s better… hmm Idk any suggestions would be helpful for my mental state.

TL;DR fit a door in my car, sawed a hole in the wrong spot, left my car unlocked, things are stolen.

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...
