TIFU by taking what I thought was my roommate's supplement before the gym and walking around bricked up for hours

It's 6am freezing outside, barely slept and I already skipped the gym twice this week so I'm forcing myself to go. Walk into the kitchen to grab my pre and realize I finished it and forgot to reorder. Fckn awesome. My roommate has this pouch on the counter that looks exactly like a Momentous pack. Clean white packaging just says fast acting, natural ingredients, the usual supplement buzzwords. I grab two tablets and chew them on the drive over on an empty stomach. Whatever let's go. First 20 minutes normal started squat sets and I start getting warm flushed, heart thumping harder, skin tingling. I'm there thinking okay this pre hits different I kinda like it ngl. Then it happens full situation in basketball shorts on a wednesday at planet fitness surrounded by old people doing morning cardio and it is NOT going away.

Soo i spent the next 2 hours doing the most creative workout of my life. Half assing abs just to stay seated. Hoodie held in front of me like a shield at the water fountain. Made eye contact with a woman on the hip abductor machine and genuinely considered moving cities. Get home like yo your pre is insane what is that. He goes what pre. I point to the pouch. Fucker starts laughing so hard he can't breathe and tells me it's called Boost by Don. Not pre-workout. Shit you take before you hook up. The packaging looks like literally any gym supplement. Fooled the fuck out of me. Keep that in your bedroom not next to the protein powder.

AND if anyone at Maple Ave Planet Fitness saw a guy in black basketball shorts having a crisis at 6:30am Wednesday that was me. I'm sorry I didn't choose this.

TL;DR: Took two tablets from my roommate's supplement pouch thinking it was pre-workout. It was a sex supplement. Spent 2 hours at Planet Fitness bricked up in basketball shorts surrounded by senior citizens.

TIFU by not disabling an option in Windows that seemingly made my PC stutter for the last 3 years

I bought a pretty good PC in 2019 (2300 € of goodness) but, a few months after I installed it, the PC started to have, at random, small freeze for like a second, every 10 to 50 min for seemingly no reason. I did tons of benchmark, pretty much read every posts about "my PC is stuttering/freezing help meee" on the internet, called the After Sale number from where I bought the PC. Removing and putting the GPU back helped for a few weeks, but then back to square one. Checked the state of my disks, the ventirad, everything ! Restarting the PC made the stuttering stop for like 1 or 2 hours that's it. I had GPU-Z and CPUID monitor on all the time to check if anything happened, and weirdly enough, having those monitoring program open made the stuttering way weaker ! Drove me absolutely crazy. Then one or two weeks ago I saw a post on r/buildapc about Fast Startup option in Windows and how it was a good idea to disable it... So I did. Since then, nothing. No stuttering, no f...

TIFU by accidentally adding the police to a private WhatsApp group for private poker nights / sports betting events.

So Poker is highly regulated here in Belgium, so is being a bookie. Yet for the past I don't know how many years I (first with some friends, now alone) have been organizing some private poker nights and have ran a private sports betting competition. This sounds like a big deal, but in reality it isn't. None of the proceeds go to me, nor is there a rake during the poker nights. Problem is: these poker nights happen in 2 pubs after hours when they are closed, both pub owners are really good mates of me. So technically the pubs might be violating the law even though people bring their own booze (some will bring a bottle of Wodka, some a crate of beer, etc ...), pub owners don't actually sell anything during those nights (technically, in practice they sometimes just serve at their cost). The buy-in is also limited to €25 euro (no rebuy), so they are basically soft home games, just taking place in a pub behind closed doors. And everyone knows each other. Most of these people...

TIFU by not getting visual confirmation on the lube he was using

Obligatory not today, but I was talking with my ex (the counterpart in this story) and he said he was surprised I hadn’t written this post yet, and truthfully, he’s right. So I (30 at the time, F) and my boyfriend (29 at the time, M) had been dating for a few months and were honestly having a blast. Maybe too much fun. A lot of late nights out. Both very spontaneous people with a lot of social and sexual energy when together, the latter being an important component of this story. One night we had decided to go to one of our neighborhood spots and have a few drinks before heading back to his place. In our city there’s this local artist that creates these awesome vending machines full of unique shit, some of it’s as simple as a pair of earrings or a bag of tiny ducks, but the fun ones are these mystery packages. I always liked choosing the spirit animal ones cause those contain a tiny toy animal and a card with some relatively snarky description of why your lazy like a shark or whateve...
