TIFU by accidentally stabbing someone in the face on Valentine's Day

It was Valentine's day. I (32f) was at a small Valentine's day concert put on by our local brewery. My boyfriend was the drummer, and I was there to watch him play and hang out afterwards.

The show was great, very entertaining with the singer going offstage every so often to pass out a rose or have someone sing a line. I was seated with his girlfriend (I'll call her K) and her friend (I'll call her A) during the performance.

A and K were both talking loudly and laughing raucously throughout the entire performance. They were clearly having a great time and while it was distracting, they were in very high spirits as they got progressively drunker.

During the intermission, my boyfriend and I went outside for a smoke and we bantered about how he could hear them over his drum kit. I told him I was having a great time and that his performance sounded amazing. We both agreed that it was a good thing that I'm not a drinker and then went back inside for the second set.

During the second set, A and K got even more drunk, silly, and loud. There were other friends of ours sitting nearby, so I did my best to ignore the drunk ladies, chat with other friends, and enjoy the show.

When the show ended, I went with my bf to cool off before breaking down the stage. We talked about his performance, and the ladies came back up because they were just so loud. I thought they were cute and having a great time, but he said they were annoying and that he was glad I didn't do stuff like that.

When we went back into the venue, A was drunkenly popping balloons with her teeth, badly. I offered to help to which she agreed. I pulled out my small pocket knife to pop the balloons quickly and easily.

A had her face down trying to bite a balloon while I was popping them with my knife. All the balloons were popped and we started picking up the little latex pieces off of the floor.

Thats when A said that she had blood on her face. My heart dropped. My stomach sank. Right on her left nostril was a tiny stab wound from my pocket knife that was bleeding pretty good. She had been drinking a lot so it was kind of bleeding a lot.

I apologized profusely, and offered help. She kept telling me not to apologize and that she, "kind of liked it." Literally everyone else there thought it was hilarious, even her, but I was mortified. How could I have been so careless? I know better with knives.

Now my boyfriend is going around telling people I stabbed someone in the face and he thinks its hilarious.

Anyway I felt terrible about it. She didn't. The end.

TL;DR: I stabbed a lady (completely by accident) in her nostril with my pocket knife while trying to pop balloons on Valentine's day.

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...
