TIFU by being cheap with Ice Breakers Mints

First off, I want to apologize to the housekeepers who work at Bellagio. Obviously a throwaway…never thought I needed to post here. (Warning: contains gay sex.)

I was in Vegas this weekend (no, nothing good ever comes of Vegas). After checking into the hotel room, I decided to play some slots in the casino. I was also kinda horny and knew there was a 99% chance of a hookup if I simply turned on Grindr. So I washed myself and headed downstairs to play some slots while I waited for a suitable companion for the night.

On the way to the casino, I stopped at the gift shop (Tutto) opposite the elevators to grab Ice Breakers Mints (the round tin). It was highway robbery. I couldn’t believe how much they marked up a stupid thing of Ice Breakers. I was not going to let my money go to waste so I revenge ate the entire thing while playing slots.

Then the right guy came along. He was also staying at the Bellagio, except he had a fountain view. So I ended up in his room for the hookup.

My stomach gurgled as I was giving him bj. But I ignored it. When it came to doggiestyle, he had me face the window so we could both watch the fountain while he mounted me from behind. I ignored the gurgle again, thinking that I had washed myself thoroughly enough - I was good to go even with the gurgles.

Well, I was wrong. I was not good to go. I exploded. I imagine it was just like the fountain, but maybe less boom and more earthy. In any case I didn’t stick around long enough to find out. I ran. I barely had my jeans on and only one shoe in hand. I barely heard the “what the actual fuuuck” as the door closed behind me. I had left a shoe behind. That was not the Cinderella story I wanted.

I texted my friend about what happened. He immediately said it was the Ice Breakers. Something about sorbitol and gut allergies. That sounds right.

TL;DR: I was cheap and ate a whole thing of Ice Breaker Mints because they were heavily marked up, not realizing it can cause gut allergies. My revenge eating turned me into a gay Cinderella who had to buy herself a new pair of running shoes.

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

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 ...
