TIFU by driving a friend away in game

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, even completing some of those heists to reset them in hopes for more/better loot, and doing the setup. So I have 4 heists ready to rock, giving him all the fun without the frustration.

2 days ago, Rockstar implements a new anticheat, which doesn't even work. More importantly, it prevents anyone with a steam deck from playing GTA Online, meaning I can never make it up to my friend in game, nor can I play with him on that game.

TL;DR I griefed a friend in game, making him take a break for a few days. I was going to make it up to him, but the game developer locked out his device from the game, So I can't.

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...
