TIFU By Joking About Getting a Handie From My Partner's Roommate

So last Saturday, I (32M) went out to lunch with a friend of mine, Jack (32M). We've known each other since college, and have the same sense of humor, so we tend to be a little loud whenever we're joking in public.

Jack asked to get lunch because he knew my partner, Naomi (29F), was out of town for a conference and I would be free. We went to lunch at a quiet diner near me.

At the start of the meal, we were chatting a bit before he said something along the lines of "I'm glad we could have some guy time while Naomi is away!"

I replied by cartoonishly looking side to side, and telling him "Yeah, it's been good! But I need to tell you something. Last night, and I don't know how to say this ...Naomi's roommate gave me a handjob."

Jack started to laugh, but before either of us could say else, I felt cold water being splashed on the back of my head. I turned around and saw a 20-something year-old woman staring daggers at me. I guess she was paying-up at a nearby table, and overheard? She had an empty glass in her hand that she had clearly picked-up at an unused table that she had splashed at me.

She shouted that I was "Trash, absolute TRASH!" before storming out. I just sat there completely in shock as Jack kept laughing.

The thing that I knew, and that Jack knew, but clearly this woman didn't know: I am Naomi's roommate. We live together, just the two of us. The joke was that I was masturbating.

Now Jack is pissing himself and won't stop calling me "Trash-Absolute-Trash" like it's a military title. I know Naomi will find it hilarious too, but I'm worried I'm going to run into this pissed-off woman again at or near the diner! There is now someone, who might be living in my neighborhood, that I can run into at any point who hates me, all because of a dumb joke!

TL;DR: I made a joke implying I was cheating on my partner with her roommate, with the joke being that I am, in fact, her roommate.

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

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 ...
