TIFU by accidentally showing my mom yaoi

To start, in case you don't know what yaoi is (but I'm assuming you do) it's romance between two dudes and is also called boys love (or BL). Anyway, I'm 21 and I read a lot on my phone, I like lots of genres and will read just about anything depending on what I feel like. Straight romance, gay romance, action fantasy, martial arts, and occasionally smut of various kinds.

Today I felt like catching up on BL series I hadn't read in a while, and this one had smut in it. Halfway through the chapter the characters were getting intimate and I get a call, so I stop reading to answer it. My mom had used my phone earlier in the day to make a call and they called my number back instead of the number she left in her voicemail (her number). Anyway I go to my mom and pass her my phone so she can take the call, completely forgetting about what I had just been reading. I walk away to go do something and only realized my mistake when I hear my mom say "what the hell are you reading?"

My heart sank and I have never felt so embarrassed. I took my phone back and only managed to try and make light of the situation to lessen my embarrassment. I told my mom "don't judge me." Thankfully my mom dropped it, she didn't ask any more questions.

I think the only thing that saved me from a way worse outcome is 1. My mom is super chill about most things 2. I'm an adult, so my parents respect the fact that I do adult things and am responsible for myself and 3. I'm really close with my mom, so my mom will likely never bring this up again because she knows I'm embarrassed as hell.

Moral of the story? Remember to close your browser tab before lending your phone to a family member.

TL;DR I left gay smut open in my browser tab by accident and lent my mom my phone. She saw it and now I'm so embarrassed I could die.

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

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 ...
