TIFU: going out in public after a long fast and having GI issues

So last night I ended a 72 hour fast & if anyone knows the after effects of eating after a long fast, you know it’s best to stay close to home. But I thought my middle of the night stomach rumblings were it and I have shit to do. (Ehh, funny, but not)

So I’m out running errands and my stomach says ‘no!’ So I waddle to the ‘women’s lounge’ of a nice department store and unleash a fury from my behind that could have rumbled the building. I’m not sure, I may have blacked out for a moment while praying my continued flushing was hiding the gas & splatter I subjected this very busy restroom to. My poo sounded like pee in spurts. If you’ve done a colonoscopy prep—like that but stinky because it’s not all water. And the smell…omg. I had egg drop soup to break my fast and an omelette for breakfast. The smell was rancid. Too many eggs….

The restrooms are set up with sinks on right and left as you walk in, then a T shape with about 6 restrooms on the right, 6 on the left. I finish my business and when I leave, the other 5 stalls on my side of the T are full. I walk out and a lady walks in and turns to the side I was on. There was only 1 stall she could go to. I’m certain she saw me walk out from that side too, so she knew it was me who had been in there.

I finish washing my hands and as I grab a paper towel, turning towards the T intersection, the lady is walking to the other half of the stalls covering her mouth. We make eye contact. Long. Direct. Eye contact. I force a smile. She looks down. And I’m pretty sure I died, like my insides. Dead.

If that lady sees this…I’m sorry! I’ll put some poo-pourie in my purse next time I fart that long!

TL/DR: pooped a nasty poop in public and a lady walked into the stall I had been in, walked out & made eye contact with me. Awkward!

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 sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
