TIFU: I read descriptions of some movies and now I can’t sleep

I was watching criterion videos and googled some movies someone mentioned. Specifically, Bill Hader mentions salo as a date movie and I did get it was sarcastic but I immediately googled it and… wtf. I proceeded to got down a rabbit hole of simply just reading descriptions of the most disturbing movies ever, because I was bored and it was amusing AT THE TIME. Now I’ve been lying in bed for over two hours and I can’t stop thinking about how disgusting the descriptions I read today are. Now, before anyone says I’m freaking out too quickly. I watched “Bones and all” a while ago (the acting was good I guess) and although I found it disturbing, I watched it until the last scene. But these movies I read about today make “Bones and all” sound like a lighthearted film. When I watched that I thought it was probably one of the weirdest movies ever. But I guess I’m naive so yeah. It’s not that I don’t know horrible stuff happens in life it’s also… why would you want to put that on a screen, and also why as an actor or director would you want to partake in those movies. (Actually don’t answer that question I don’t even wanna know) If anyone has advice on how to… put these things out of my mind or change my perspective or something, please let me know because I’m going insane thinking about this shit

TL;DR: I read descriptions of disturbing movies because I was amused and now they’re preventing me from falling asleep

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...
