TIFU by ruining a coworker's relationship

obligatory "this didn't happen today"

So I'm an amusement park kind of guy but most of my friends either actively dislike them or don't like them enough to pay to go and like sit in traffic. I had this coworker (30sF. at the time I was 35m) who I wasn't like friends friends with but definitely pre-friends and one day we're talking and she mentions she also likes amusement parks. So I say we should go sometime to which she says "great? can I bring my boyfriend?" (in retrospect i think she didn't realize I WASN'T asking her on a date, parks are just less boring when you're with a friend) so I say "sure sounds great" and we make plans to meet at the park.

here's where the FU happens. she's cool and all but her boyfriend? that dude was AWESOME. 5 minutes in him and I are getting along like a house on fire, turns out we have a lot of similar interests and we're just having a great time the way 2 dudes can immediately.

So we're hanging out at the wave pool and we're trying to include her but honestly the two of us had more in common than either one of us did with her and she's giving the terse "it's fine" and so eventually he's like "look you're upset and if I can I want to fix it so can you tell me what's wrong?" and she screams "I've just spent the past 5 hours with my boyfriend and apparently his FUCKING SOULMATE!"

and here's where I really double down on the FU, she said that and I laughed. Which made Steve laugh. which made her (and him) leave.

Yeah work was a tad awkward with her until I got transferred 3 months later (very normal in my job).

She and Steve broke up about a month after my transfer. which I know because I'm still in touch with him and he actually couch crashed with us (my now wife and i) for a few weeks last year when he was waiting on his apt to be ready

tldr: coworker thought I was asking her on a date so brought her bf on a hang out. her bf and I ended up getting along better than they did which led in part to them breaking up

TIFU Accidentally taught my 4 year old nephew the word chlamydia

So I very awkwardly taught my nephew, the word chlamydia the other day and not in the way that you would think… It was actually very innocent. I was with one of my sister’s friends and my friends who’s become part of the family and I was telling her about an interesting fact, not thinking about how my nephew was right beside us. I told her did you know that koalas can get chlamydia and that they can give it to humans… just a fun fact… and then he who can barely say clear words most of the time clearest day said koala chlamydia so that happened And he went to his grandmother’s house today, so I’m kinda hoping he doesn’t say that, but at the same time I would die laughter and about pee my pants if he did because holy crap, how do you react to that? TL:DR I shared a fact about koalas and my nephew hung on to two words from the sentence. Those two words which he repeated were koala chlamydia.

TIFU having sex with the hot tub

Happened a year ago, but today was when I was told how bad this is.    Having sex with the hot tub is a terrible idea.  Not IN the hot tub.  WITH the hot tub.    I like to relax at night in the hot tub.  No lights on, dark sky and all alone in my backyard.  Sometimes, the hot water and bubbles hit the right spot and things can get aroused.  Usually not a big deal and a little masturbation to climax helps with the relaxing part of the evening.  However, this night, I was too stressed to finish, but the erection would not go away.  I decided I had to take care of the issue and looked for the most immediate, intense stimulation by sticking my penis right up against the jet flow.  The feeling was incredibly intense and the desired effect took place within a minute.    Now I could relax.  But, something didn’t feel right.   Touching my semi-erect penis, I realized it was flopped over to the side, half way up...

TIFU by paying attention in class

Today in psychology my professor was talking about discrimination and the way people can judge others based on initial impressions. I happened to be looking my professor in the eyes when he was speaking to us, which is what I do with everyone talking to me. For some reason he didn’t like this, he stared back at me and continued speaking until eventually he interrupted his lecture to call me out. He said, “you there in the hoodie! do you think anybody knows who you are?” in a slightly aggressive tone. I was completely caught off guard by this, and I felt a lot of anxiety and sudden tension in me rise. I eventually said “no” and he said “I could discriminate against you based on your hoodie.” I didn’t think anything was wrong initially because he could have just been trying to make an example out of me to add to the lecture, except he had never done this with any other student before which is what made me also think it could have been targeted. Everything was fine until I did it agai...
