TIFU by being a poo chucking monkey

This didn’t happen today, but when I was about 18.

Some friends and I went to a mutual friend’s place for a little get together. I barely knew the guy (friend of a friend type situation), but whatever. We start drinking, and at some point his roommate pulls out mushrooms.

Now, being a genius 18-year-old who had already been drinking, I decided that taking a nice casual 5+ gram cap was a fantastic idea.

We go for a walk and at first everything is great. You know, classic stuff—colors look cool, everything feels funny, vibes are high. Then about an hour in, I am GONE. Like my friends’ faces are melting and rearranging themselves kind of gone.

We end up outside a gas station, and this is where my brain fully disconnects from reality. I become convinced that life is basically a video game with levels, and if you do something you’re “not supposed to,” you unlock powers. I’m talking flying, time travel, all that.

So obviously, the logical next step…

I take all my clothes off.

Because yeah, that’s definitely how you unlock flight.

And then I black out.

After that it’s just random clips like a badly edited movie. At one point I remember seeing cops wheeling some crazy naked guy into a hospital, and I’m watching it like “damn, that guy is having a rough night.”

Spoiler: it was me. I was the guy.

Next thing I know, I’m waking up super groggy and there’s this nurse asking me my name and where I am, but she looks like a humanoid pig. So now I’m thinking, “cool, I’ve been abducted by pig people,” but I’m way too out of it to do anything about it, so I just pass out again.

I wake up again later and my mom is standing there holding my clothes. That’s when it hits me that I’m in the psych ward of the hospital, not a pig spaceship.

Fast forward to getting home. My stepdad looks at me and goes, “How you feeling, ya poo chucking monkey?”

And I’m like… excuse me?

That’s when I find out that while I was in the psych ward, completely out of my mind, in a room with nothing but a toilet… I apparently decided that after taking a shit, the best possible use of it was to pick it up and redecorate the room.

Walls. Floor. Full commitment.

So not only did I get arrested naked outside a gas station, I also turned a hospital room into a crime scene that I’m sure someone else had to clean up.

18-year-old me really thought he was about to unlock superpowers.

Instead I unlocked a lifetime ban from dignity.

FML.

TL;DR: Took way too many mushrooms, stripped naked trying to “unlock powers,” got taken to the psych ward, and while there decided to finger paint with my own shit.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
