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 - 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...
