TIFU I help someone steal my bike and pass out in a public bathroom

It was an ordinary Tuesday night. I come home from work and decided to treat myself to 20mg of edibles. My wife and I have put the kids to bed early and we're enjoying dinner with some great conversations. I share how biking to work was so great when I realize that I did not bike home that day. I had caught a ride home from the gym and had forgotten about my bike (locked) at the bike rack outside my gym. The city I live in is notorious for bike thef. I've had two stolen in the past personally. It's only 8pm however so we feel there's a good chance the bike is still there.

Here's our first FU. We live only a 10 mins drive away but I was starting to feel the gummy. Driving seems like a bad idea. We found an item retrieval option on Uber and thought this was perfect! We quickly typed up the instructions describing the bike and LOCK COMBO. We hastily sent it out before we realize that we basically gave all the drivers nearby the code to my fancy road bike. We did have a driver accept but cancel after he read the note. He mentioned that no one would pick up because the package is not packed correctly. Of course.

Here's our second FU. I decided I better rush to the gym before anyone takes my bike. I call an uber for myself and got a Tesla Y accept the ride. Now I have severe motion sickness. Throw in 20mg of weed and the back seat of a Tesla Y driven by fast and furious, I knew I was fucked. I may as well have been in a small raft in the middle of the ocean with a thunderstorm. I make it to the gym without incidents. At the same time I feel that the gummy is peaking. My head is warm and spinny. I can barely stand up straight and I needed shelter quickly. There was no way I was getting back inside an uber. I did somehow manage to make it to my office before I threw up in the bathroom. I can't remember much of it but I think I threw up another 6-7 times and napped as much as I could on the bathroom floor inbetween. As soon as I'm done I would feel sick again. My wife was so worried the whole time. I couldn't even answer the phone. She eventually found a friend several hours later to come find me and got me home where I threw up a few more times.

Oh yeah, the bike was also gone but the lock was left on the bike rack. I see it almost as a message to how stupid I was.

Tl:dr

Took 20mg of gummies then realized I left my bike at the gym. Broadcasted to Uber drivers the combo to my lock. Rushed out and got severely sick. Bike was gone. Puked and slept at the bathroom at my office before a friend saved me.

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...
