TIFU by leaving bananas in a hot kitchen and finding a banana goo swimming pool on my kitchen table that ruined 2 finished puzzles.

So, a few days ago me and my partner purchased some Bananas like we always do, and we set them on our kitchen counter, which also had a few finished puzzles on it just waiting to be glued. Now we do have AC, but due to a pest issue in our building, the kitchen door must remain closed, which cuts it off from the AC. We have also been in a heat wave, 104° during the day. So needless to say the kitchen gets HOT. This has never been an issue before- But today as my partner is leaving for work I head into the kitchen and what do I see? (And smell) A POOL of banana on our kitchen table. The bananas were still mostly yellow, but they had MELTED. And now they are sitting in a lake of rotten banana smelling liquid on our table. The puddle was so large it had also drowned 2 of the completed puzzles, sadly ruining them with their putred banana goop. I put gloves on, and picked up each banana, and the inside of them was LIQUID. In all my life i have never seen this happen before, nor has my partner. So note to all of you reading, dont make the same mistake we did. Bananas can melt, and they will leave a foul smelling liquid and goo mess that will spread to anything near them.

TLDR: Left fresh Bananas in a hot kitchen, they melted and ruined 2 completed puzzles, as well as making our kitchen smell like an alley on a hot day after a farmers market.

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...
