TIFU by accidentally throwing my car keys in a dumpster and canceling my date RIGHT before I found them

I’m mostly writing this to make myself feel better and distract myself from the embarrassment of my neighbors almost calling the cops on what they perceived to be a hungry, homeless person digging through the trash for food. So, today, I (19f) had a date (20m) and it was supposed to be like a cute little picnic. And I was supposed to meet his parents…

I scrubbed hard in the shower, put on my favorite perfume, brushed my teeth 2 times.

I threw on some random clothes to go clean out my car for some reason and not the one I planned for the date (THANK goodness for that) and went to clean out my car and take the laundry out from the back. In all my fervor, I realized at the very end of cleaning that I TOSSED THE KEYS IN THE APARTMENT DUMPSTER WITHOUT REALIZING IT. I panicked and immediately tried to open the trash lid to see if I could spot it. I hear a clink. Boom, it falls all the way to the bottom. I try to reach it , but I’m too short. I run upstairs and grab a stool because I’m too short to reach inside, and as I set it down, THE PLASTIC STOOL FALLS OVER BECAUSE THE CONCRETE ISN’T LEVEL AND I FALL INSIDE. I scream inside but continue looking. I eventually find the key after 15 minutes of crying, smelling like absolute shit, and calling him from inside the dumpster to cancel because I’m convinced I won’t find the key, I ended up finding it. But I scraped my finger and am now convinced I have a strain of some unknown disease. Anyways, I’ve taken another shower and swear the smell of garbage is still there so excuse me while I beat myself up, burn my clothes, and never show my face to my neighbors again.

TL;DR- I threw my keys in the trash can after a fresh shower and ended up canceling my date

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 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 by asking guy (28F) I (26 F) have been on 5 dates with where we stand.

So, I (25F) have been on five dates with this guy (28M). We were supposed to meet on Friday, but he said he might not be able to or would have to meet quite late, which frustrated me because we only see each other once a week, and we hadn’t met the previous week. Frustrated, I told him, "I think I’m done. It was nice hanging out with you, but I can’t deal with this scheduling issue." He later got back to me and said he could actually make it at our originally agreed time. We went on the date, had a great time, and the next day he texted saying he enjoyed seeing me again. I responded that I did too but also mentioned that the scheduling issue was frustrating. He agreed, and I asked if he wanted to see me again. That’s when he said he’s not sure what he wants in life right now. The thing is, I’m also unsure about what I want in life at the moment. Looking back, I don’t know why I asked such a big question when I’m still figuring things out myself. Everything feels uncertain ...
