TIFU making instant noodles - help needed

Lunchtime snack today, I started pouring hot water into a cup of Chicken Noodles

As I was pouring the water, I smiled and looked at my chickens and said "Hey Look - Chicken Flavoured ! my favourite !" ... which was meant to convey to my chickens how much I loved anything to do with chickens, their day to day care, their thoughts, feelings and life goals.

Didnt quite go as planned. They looked at me sideways, and said "Chicken Flavoured ? How do you people KNOW what Chicken tastes like ??? Hey ?"

I feel like my relationship with my chickens might be permanently damaged, after letting these words slip, even though the intent was genuine and delivered with care. It doesnt matter that the "flavouring" content is just herbs and spices, and doesnt necessarily contain any actual chicken content. It's just flavouring after all.

But still - fair enough. Imagine if dog food promoted "Human Blood Flavoured" varieties ?

Does anyone know how long do Chickens tend to remember things ?

I know for example that Elephants have long memories, so that might explain why "Elephant Flavoured" noodles are not a thing. But then Goldfish are notorious for short memories, and there is no "Goldfish Flavoured" noodle on the market either, so maybe its not that..

Im hoping the chickens will forget about this unfortunate episode in a few days. In the meantime, I have covered up the labels on anything in the pantry that mentions "Chicken Flavoured"

TL;DR: Chickens misunderstood my comment, wondering how long it will take for the incident to blow over and be forgotten.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
