TIFU by using an office chair that was too tall for me for 6 months

I got a new office chair in April of 2025. Unfortunately the chair was probably about an inch or two too tall for me. It wasn't too much of a problem, I just kind of boosted myself up and plopped into the chair. I will say that I a bit overweight so this may have compounded the issue. But the repeated plopping in the chair appears to have caused stress on my tailbone. 3 months after getting the new chair, my tailbone started hurting, I had no injuries to the area at all. I got a cushion for the chair to help. I didn't attribute the pain to the chair as I had recently lost a large amount of weight and tailbone discomfort can occur when you lose fat in your butt. I continued to use the chair. The cushion did add more height to the chair and I of course still jumped a little to get to the chair.

In September 2025 the pain started getting worse, especially when going from sitting to standing. I ended up going to physical therapy for 2 months. They started by focusing on my lower back before moving on strengthing my pelvic floor. It didn't help. I did realize the chair may be the cause of the issue and got one that was my height.

The pain kept increasing, they did an MRI in Jan 2026 and found an edema on my tailbone. I ended up having injections in February 2026 but there was no relief. The pain has increased so much that it's hard for me to work. The doctor told me I now need surgery for the nerves in my tailbone.

TLDR: using a chair that was too tall for me caused tailbone issues and I now need surgery.

Please get an office chair that fits you well everyone.

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 ...
