TIFU by accidentally sending a personal text to my entire work group chat

So this happened today, and i’m still cringing. i was venting to my best friend about a frustrating client at work, typing out a long, detailed message describing how ridiculous i thought the client was and including some… less than flattering personal opinions.

I finished typing, and in my sleepy haze i hit “send” without double-checking the recipient. instead of sending it to my friend, i sent it to the entire work group chat — 25 people, including my manager. i realized immediately when i saw the “delivered” notification and my stomach dropped.

For the next 10 minutes, i stared at my phone, paralyzed with regret. messages started pouring in — some people laughing nervously, some just reacting with “😳”, and of course a few asking if i was serious. i had to explain it was meant for a friend, apologize, and hope that my job wouldn’t be in jeopardy. the embarrassment is unreal, and now everyone at work probably thinks i’m unprofessional or bitter.

Lesson learned: double-check your recipients. maybe triple-check. my dignity might never recover, but at least i’ll never make this mistake again.

TL;DR: accidentally sent a rant about a client meant for my friend to my entire work group chat, including my manager, and spent the day mortified and apologizing.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by making chili and having an itch

I’ve been trying to expand my culinary horizons and am thinking about enrolling in culinary school to follow a passion instead of my daily slog. I picked out some recipes and decided to try and kick up chili a little bit, adding some extra chiles and hobaneros. I finished my prep during my lunch break and cleaned up. Fast forward about two hours, my boy bits had began to itch a little, and without thinking I reached in to itch the little guy and suddenly the fires of hell were unleashed upon an extra sausage today. As the heat rises I scramble to think of ways to soothe my flaming frankfurter. First thought was, “Milk helps right?” So I wrapped in a cloth soaked in what I was hoping to be delightful dairy relief but instead only delayed the burn until the air touched it again. As I unwrap the milk the sides head are now a deep shade of purple that started to have me concerned. In a clutch I call out to my google home in search of some great wisdom on how to relieve the burn. “Mar...
