TIFU by misunderstanding my gynecologist

This actually happened on Thursday, but my soul has only just now come back to my body.

I visited the gynecologist on Thursday for my yearly exam. I see a male gynecologist, and while he’s a little awkward, he’s a very nice guy, a good doctor, and hasn’t given me “creep” vibes.

Before he came in, I took off everything except my socks and put on the little gown they gave me. I settled on the bed and then he entered.

We make a little bit of small talk just so we’re not in silence, go through the “any concerns, anything you need to bring up since last visit etc” and then it’s time for the old peek. I put my legs in the stirrups and he begins his exam.

He must be feeling awkward from the silence, because after a minute, he says “oh, you must have a cat, huh?” I do have a couple of cats, but I hadn’t mentioned that to him.

My brain short-circuits. How can he tell I have cats just from looking at my vagina? Does it smell like cats down there?! So I say “why?? does my vagina smell?”

He must have interpreted my question as “why does my vagina smell?” And he said “I’m not smelling anything right now, can you describe the smell?”

My brain goes into overdrive. What the fuck does he mean can I describe it? He’s the one down there?? So I clarify “can I describe the cat-vagina smell??”

He pauses and sits up straight and just says “what?”

And so I say, “do I smell like cats down there? How could you tell I have cats?”

His face turns bright red and he points to my foot in the stirrup, or more specifically the cat socks I’m wearing, which also happen to have a single white cat hair clinging to the sock.

I said “oh. I thought my vagina smelled like cats or something.”

He shook his head and he very quickly finished up.

So my vagina doesn’t smell like cat, but I don’t think I can go back to him.

TL;DR I thought my gynecologist could smell my cats on my pussy.

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...
