STIFU by attempting to save two very small children from crossing a busy road (self.tifu)

ThePigDot_26 が 投稿

I was walking towards my bank to deposit a cheque into my account when I saw what I thought was two very small children about to cross a carriageway.

I should point out, I have to wear contact lenses but they are not vital, but to me, everything past around 10m just looks like a photoshopped blur, I can tell what's there but I can't make out distinct features.

I walked faster to attempt to see whether they were just being stupid or whether they were actually going to cross. One of them took a step into the road to get a better look around a bus that was stationary at the side of the road. This is when I thought to myself something really bad could happen. I started sprinting at them. They turned and looked at me and as my vision started to clear I had a surprise. Looking back at me was a dwarf woman and what looked to be her grandson.

I didn't know what to do so I just carried on sprinting and hopped on the bus. I looked at the driver and engaged him in conversation whilst the woman continued to eye me suspiciously. I whispered faintly, "I'm just gonna confess I don't have any money, I just mistook that dwarf for a kid about to cross the road and it was just instinct".. The bus driver started giggling to himself and said he'd drop me round the corner to spare everyone's embarrassment.

Apart from mine. Obviously. Good guy though.

Edit: for all those criticising me about not wearing contacts, I know the limitations of my eyes very well thank you. This isn't an everyday occurrence, I wear them based on whether I'll actually need them. They cost money. I'm only slightly shortsighted, the fact I had to sprint to them should indicate I was at a distance that most people might have second guessed.

Edit 2: thanks for the gold! Much appreciated!

For what it's worth, you supplied that bus driver with a pretty palatable transit tale.

So crafty, they looked just like everyone else. Fuck dolphins.

Pakicetus:

Pakicetus, which is an extinct genus of amphibious cetacean of the family Pakicetidae, was endemic to the Eocene of Pakistan. The vast majority of paleontologists regard it as the most basal whale.

It is absolutely mind blowing to see how much evolution has happened before humans came around. How many generations of evolution it took to get a single celled organism out of the water into the pakicetus and then into a dolphin. Amazing.

I actually very recently read through the entire history of the Earth. from single cell 3.7-3.8 billion years ago to amphibians to reptiles to dinosaurs to birds. Or... amphibians to proto-mammals to mammals. So. Fucking. Fascinating.

That was wonderful. Friend of mine did something like that. He and another friend were arguing over who got the last steak at a BBQ I was hosting. After a few friendly verbal bouts my friend says "Alright we'll wrestle for it, front lawn!" the two of them get up and as soon as my other friend is outside he closes the door and locks it and feasts on his reward.

          I once was waiting for a taxi outside a concert. This little girl comes into the queue behind me. I was shocked, she was surely about 12 and was waiting for a taxi by herself at 12:00am. I started talking to her to check and asked how old she was. She replied 26. I was so embarrassed, but thankfully I don't think she realised what I had thought.

                That bus driver was awesome. When I don't wear lenses or my glasses, which isn't often, and I come across someone I know, they expect me to wave or something. Then it's awkward because I didn't. But when I do wave, it's awkward because I'm waving at a person I don't know. I hate these moments.

                I didn't know what to do so I just carried on sprinting and hopped on the bus.

                General life rule: never help children.

                What's rough is working at some ticket-selling place. I worked at a movie theater selling tickets and almost didn't catch myself when selling tickets to a guy and someone too short to see over the counter. "Two tickets to Iron Man." "Okay, one adult and one--" looking over the counter to the kid, who is actually a grown dwarf man, "and... two adults. Okay." Although maybe I should have offered to sell him a kid's ticket, since they're like $2-3 cheaper. I don't know. How much is dignity worth?

                FYI "short sighted" is a failure to plan ahead. "Near sighted" is a vision deficiency. I see this a lot around here.

                Maybe by you randomly sprinting the dwarf and grandchild may have stopped crossing to look at you and consequently you saved their lives after all! I bet she she looks up to you.

                For what is worth I would have ended up doing the same myself..my eye sight is slightly worse than yours and I still have to get glasses or contacts :-(. Besides I think you gave the bus driver a pretty good reason to save yourself a lot of embarrassment...

                I liked your little tale, bit we need a sub for stuff like this where you absolutely did not fuck up in any way. You just mistook a small woman for a child. There were zero consequences.

                Whatever dude, you're the HERO in this story. You stepped up to help out what you thought were two children in danger. I think if you would have explained to the little people what you thought was going on they would be cool. That was a courageous move and took some guts and integrity, even if it didn't end up the way you thought it was going to. +6 bonus points.
