TIFU dafür dass ich damals bescheuert war?

TIFU by choosing the open road

I am currently visiting my family in another city and it just so happened that there is some nice dental clinic in which I decided to have an appointment. To go there, I chose a quicker route which had a big open area on its way. While there I suddenly heard a buzzing sound coming closer. It is important to add that I am Ukrainian, the city is front-line and that buzzing was a drone on its merry way to kill someone. I can’t describe it other than bone deep terror, being stranded there in the middle of the road with nothing but chest high fences around with my only thought being that I didn’t want to die so abruptly. Luckily, there was some small building I could hide behind (not without falling on my way there). Once it flew over my l quickly started to stumble to the more narrow place but then that thing turned back! Well, at least now I was a bit closer to relative security and after some running I took shelter under the bigger building, waited out and went to the clinic. In hindsight, I probably only lived because I wasn’t the most appetising target and was left with just a bit of a psychological trauma and a sore knee?

TL;DR: Almost died to drone because I have chosen an open road

P.S.: I hope it fits this sub I didn’t know which one would suit better? I hope my English was comprehensible enough

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
