TIFU by thinking Jehovah's witnesses weren't real
I know Jehovah's Witnesses exist, but I just didn't think these two were real, there's much more context to come I live in a Southern coastal city that does a lot of filming, and I work in the entertainment industry. About a year ago I was on set deck for a movie that was filming downtown. It's a really fun job where I...

TIFU By turning myself into an oompah loompa
Figured I'd have a bit of self care. So, with some extra time on my hands, I decided to treat myself to a DIY face mask, thjnking I'd go natural ingredients only. I found a supposedly "natural" face mask recipe online that promised a radiant glow. One of the main ingredient was turmeric – I mean, it's anti inflammator...

TIFU by realizing that I have been misspelling "definitely" for the past 8 years
So English isn't my first language and when I was originally learning it I learnt the word definitely BUT I heard it as definently so that's how I've been spelling and saying it for the past 8 years then when I got a new phone that didn't have all my autofill stuff I started noticing it saying it's spelled "definitely"...

TIFU by eating Weetabix
Not today, but yesterday. For background, I have a high protein diet because of weight training. I've never had any issues before, but I recently switched to a new protein powder thats much higher in protein. That's the first FU, as I didn't realise the sheer magnitude of the difference in protein intake. So, after us...

TIFU my eye
Short post, happened two days ago. Rough week at remote work, eyes are strained and tired. Reach for my trusty eye drops, and experienced the ultimate betrayal. It wasn’t my eye drops - it was nail glue. I held my eyelid open and squirted a healthy dose of superglue directly on to my eyeball. Luckily I somehow had ...

TIFU telling my parents they were not allowed to have sex under my roof
My parents spent the week with me. It was something the two of them planned to do since I moved out and continued my life in another country. My mom and dad refused to let me arrange a hotel room for them. They wanted to be closer to me, as in, spare bedroom closer. I agreed to let them use the spare bedroom in my apar...

TIFU by almost getting frostbite on my penis
I fucked up bad. Just a bit of context to preface. My goal for the past 7 years has been to become a police officer. I know I'm not a shining pillar of perfection, im human after all, but I'd like to do what I can to make the world at least a slightly better place than it was before I came into it. Every time I've app...

TIFU by not considering packaging
Hello everyone. Full disclaimer (and not the one you're expecting, e.g. "not actually today... etc"): I've been a long time lurker of this subreddit and have gotten a good deal of enjoyment AND exasperation from the good, the bad, and the ugly that I've seen here. As well as the blatantly fake stuff. This is a true ta...

TIFU by singing the wrong song to myself
So there I was listening to IGOR an album whose penultimate track is called I DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE, and the refrain is yelling I don't love you anymore at a weird pitch. Now I have professional goblin brain (ADHD) and one of the ways I stim is singing to myself, normally I do this at a whisper. Finally I was lis...

TIFU By not buying tickets to a party
Every year my uni’s study association holds a winter party (basically clubbing). Last year I went, but this year I wasn’t feeling it (for privacy reasons I won’t explain why exactly) - despite my friends all going. It didn’t matter as much to me up until now, since the tickets were sold out anyway. Now a guy I’m inte...

TIFU by drinking maggots
I had this white chocolate powder that I've had for many months now... But I thought powder doesn't go bad. Or at least that it takes years. So I got a glass of milk, heated it, dropped some powder. Wrong. Powder does go bad. As I was drinking I noticed two curled up things floating in milk. I thought it was just har...

TIFU by sending my ex a TikTok
So me and my ex broke up and went no contact. This was around 8 months ago. During our relationship he wouldn’t let me consume media if I found the people attractive. For example I couldn’t listen to Harry styles for months. I was once watching a smosh video, I’ve been a fan for years, and he asked if I found Shayne to...

TIFU by Starting an Underground Sportsbetting Ring
Okay, so this disaster unfolded recently, and I'm still dealing with the consequences. It all began innocently enough in my junior year of high school.

TIFU by Blowing My Student Loan on Rent in the UK
Hey r/tifu, So today, I majorly screwed up. I’m a 24-year-old student from India, studying in the UK. I had this £25,000 student loan for my Master’s program, right? Well, I managed to burn through a chunk of it – about £8,000 – that was meant for my tuition, on rent and other stuff. Classic me. Now, I’m stuck. My un...

My previous concussion which happ...

TIFU by not realizing how bad a known allergy was
This FU happened last night but it was a big fuck up. For some background I am allergic to cinnamon, not a huge deal normally, easy enough to avoid, (holidays are a different animal). I’ve always been on high alert with cinnamon because it causes severe hives, and any time I have accidentally eaten it my lips, throa...

TIFU by taking an edible
EDIT: I found out they were 18mg each gummy I fully said to myself before taking the gummy, “it can’t kill me”. I’m very inexperienced when it comes to weed, I’ve gabbled with zoots a few times when I was younger and full of life, but never edibles because I’ve heard so many tragic stories. Anyway I ordered some fr...
