TIFU by calling my grandpa

TIFU by not getting the Sex Toy I ordered online quick enough

For context, I'm 18M, at home until I leave for college after the summer.

About a week ago, I ordered a small doll online. I wasn't too worried about it because I order things online all the time, and in the last year and a half, nobody in my family has ever opened one of my packages. So, naturally, I figured everything would go smoothly.

Today, right after I got out of the shower, I got the notification that it had been delivered. I threw on my clothes and went outside to grab it before anyone else noticed.

Except for one small problem: it wasn't there.

I checked around the porch, then the mailbox in case the delivery guy put it there for some reason. But alas, there was nothing.

That's when I felt a pit open up in my stomach.

I opened the delivery confirmation photo, and sure enough, it showed the package sitting right in front of my door. So I meandered back inside to check if someone brought it in and left it somewhere.

My mom was sitting in her office doing work.

I looked to the left, and there it was, sitting on her desk

At first, I figured she'd just brought it inside for me, so I tried to play it off and just told her I'd ordered a multi-tool.

She looked at me and immediately said she knew it wasn't a multi-tool. Yikes

Turns out the package had been delivered about three hours earlier. She said she "didn't know what it was," so she decided to open it.

Yeah.

She had already seen exactly what I had ordered.

I just grabbed the package, awkwardly asked her not to open my mail in the future, and immediately dipped upstairs as fast as humanly possible.

Now she wants to "talk" about it later.

I'm absolutely mortified.

She's the only one who knows, and I'm just praying she keeps it to herself

I don't think she's mad or upset, but I'm just actually mortified. How am I supposed to look my mother in the eye after this? Please give me tips on how to just get over it.

TL;DR: I ordered a sex toy online, my mom brought the package inside, opened it before I got home, saw exactly what it was, and now she wants to have a conversation about it.

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...
