TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by basically joking to my boss that I am suicidal

Just for context, I’m the youngest person (23M) in my department and recently have been getting comfortable telling my repressed jokes to my coworkers after a few years of trying to be professional.

Also I do very much have the will to live lol I am just full of Gen Z humor and have minimal situational awareness.

It started with me joking that I was the DEI hire as i’m mixed and the only one who can remotely speak Spanish in the entire bank. That was well received.

I then joked about the names of our customers and how bad they must of had it in high school, Even better received.

One day I walk into the break room to pillage the fridge and see my boss standing around waiting for his meal in the microwave. I habitually go towards the fridge and look for left over food silently walking past him.

“What’cha looking for?”, He asks me to break the awkward silence.

I respond, “Oh you know, the will to live that’s all” I said with literally zero hesitation.

Instantly I felt a wave of “oh shit” come over me as I just realized this isn’t a coworker who’s closed in age to find that as funny as I would.

He simply looks at me wide eyed and chuckles a bit and goes “oh well that’s no good haha”

Not once after that day has he attempted to engage in conversation with me unless it is directly work related and now I feel mortified anytime I’m about to privately engage with my boss.

TLDR: I joked about not wanting to live to my boss and now it’s made it extremely uncomfortable to even be in proximity of him.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean šŸ˜ Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
