TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by letting my AirPod run out of battery on a company wide call

My AirPods were low on battery but I thought they had enough to make it through a company wide call. There are about 500 people on this call and today they had guests from different companies speaking about our industry. Well, my talkative coworker came over to my desk and started talking to me about random stuff. As we were talking, my AirPods ran out of battery but I kept talking, thinking I’ll just turn up the volume on my computer when he leaves. The conversation had turned to hairstyle and how I style mine with gel and sometimes have to use a blow dryer (we are both dudes).

Well it turns out when my AirPods ran out of battery, the computer had switched my audio and mic settings to the built in computer software. This also caused me to become unmuted in the call but my computer speaker was muted since I always have volume at 0, so I didn’t realize. As I told my coworker all the feminine strategies I use to style my hair as a guy, all 500 people were listening. Supposedly the CEO was freaking out because he couldn’t figure out how to mute me and it lasted like 20 seconds until I turned around to see my boss had messaged me to mute myself. This was all happening during the guest speaker presentations. I can’t stop thinking about it and now I’m being made fun of (in a joking way), this is all so embarrassing.

TLDR; AirPods disconnected on a firm wide call, computer switched to the unmuted internal mic and everyone listened to how much effort I put into styling my hair as a guy, including blow drying, special shampoo, hair spray etc. and now I’m being made fun of

Also FYI, there is a Zoom setting to auto mute indefinitely when joining a call that I wasn’t aware of in case any of you now have a fear of this happening.

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 😏 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. ...
