TIFU winning too hard at life yesterday

This happened yesterday, not today.

So money tight rn bills kicking my ass but yesterday bro… I lived like the mf main character. Normal day on the jobsite just grinding. Boss pulls up, not with tools not with problems but with beers and cutwaters. Man a legend. I got this coworker, he’s my homie but also my rival. we both same age and everybody knows we tryna get that supervisor spot. usually we competing like crazy. But yesterday? we just looked at each other, cracked a beer and shotgunned it in front of the crew. Rivalry paused. Respect unlocked. After work I’m starving so I hit Popeyes. they take like 10 mins and I’m like “bruh hurry tf up” but when I get the bag it’s a jackpot: 3 fries instead of 1 3 thighs AND a breast (I only ordered 2 pieces) biscuit baked so perfect it could be in a museum I’m like damn. I don’t even got money rn but life is GOOD. Then I hop in my dream truck (finally got it a few weeks ago still feels unreal) and decide to cruise the city. On 84th street going south then this lil Ford ranger pull up next to me. window rolls down and swear to god the most beautiful girl I ever seen in my life driving. We race a couple miles just pure adrenaline. I pull into the turn lane she keeps going straight. As she passes me she looks right at me and blows me a kiss. I just sat there laughing like “idk wtf I did to deserve this day, idk if I deserve it at all… but oh boy I’m enjoying the shit outta it.” So yeah. I may be broke. But yesterday? I didn’t just live life. I straight up won it.

TL;DR: Boss brought beers so I shotgunned with my rival, Popeyes blessed me with extra food, cruised in my dream truck and raced a goddess who blew me a kiss. I may be broke, but yesterday I straight up won life.

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...
