TIFU and tits 14 years too late to fix.

r/

Most of us have a name for our spouse or significant other. Playing with Siri one day, I changed my wife’s name on my phone to “Tits McGee” and never bothered to change it back. Obviously, when you change the name of someone on your phone, that name is associated with all the contact information for that person. So even though my wife’s name isn’t a part of her email address, every time I’d email her, the name shown would be “Tits McGee”.

For 14 years, I thought I was the only one that saw that. However, every email I’ve ever sent that had my wife copied on, the recipient saw “Tits McGee”. EVERY. FUCKING. EMAIL. Including our daycare center.

I’d like to thank the wonderful team at Chuck E. Cheese event planning for pointing this information out to me in an extremely professional manner.

TLDR; I thought I was the only one that saw my wife’s contact info as “Tits McGee” when emailing literally everyone for 14 years.

    Holy fuck! I needed a good laugh this morning. You, sir, win the internet for today.

    Well, at least you didn’t name her something awful like: Hooty McBoobity or some such.

    Email does strange things with contact names and images. Also learner this the hard way

    🤣🤣 I work in shipping and have to sign off on packages multiple times a day. I always use different names every time, and Tits McGee is my favorite!!!

    Reminds me of the moment I realised all my emails to HR during my application process for my current job were send from “BIG D DADDY” thanks to my ex setting up my phone, and me not thinking to check my Apple ID.

    That was an awkward conversation. No idea how I wasn’t immediately rejected.

  20. Lisa100176 Avatar

    Yeah, I didn’t know this until I renamed my ex husband something NSFW and was having an email conversation with my daughter’s school and he was included. Oops. Sorry, not sorry on that one.

  21. sarbear1985 Avatar

    Haha omg this is hilarious. My partner started calling me that when we first got together. Thankfully he’s now moved on from that nickname. 🤣

  22. comicidiot Avatar

    Did something similar when looking at places to rent. The property agent definitely had a question for me 🤣

    All three of us had a good laugh about it though.

    Didn’t someone share a story like this a while ago ?

    Dude. Thank you for sharing and giving me a big belly laugh first thing in the morning.

    Posts like this are why I love Reddit 😂

    Her name is Veronica Corningstone. Tits McGee is on vacation.

    I worked at a company that had a rewards program for customers and it of course included their emails. Each time pulling up their account for checkout, it would show me their email when it pulled up their profile. Let me tell you one thing, some people use some wild emails.

    Making inappropriate handmaids tale jokes I had my wife written as OfName (name being my name) for years until she was the one realising same thing that you did.

    Going to be super-embarrassing  when Chuck E Cheese tries to explain this to Tits Palmer and she has another breakdown about her name like she did in school.

    This is the funniest thing I’ve read all week. How the fuck did you not realize for over a decade?

  30. SpeedBlitzX Avatar

    You’re telling me that for 14 years, no one ever asked about how “Tits McGee” came about.

    That only means that everybody else considered it was an appropriate nickname and thought nothing of mentioning it – I’m guessing for obvious reasons?

    Apple family share also shares contacts. It has changed my contacts to be what my daughters have on their phones. Their boyfriends/husband’s contacts have hearts in my phone now.

    We had similar when we applied for a mortgage and had to explain why we were getting payments from the gingerninja and the funmaker

    I did this with my college email address. Since I had three email addresses on my phone (college, my original yahoo, and my Gmail), I named the college one an abbreviation of the college name. (Let’s say the college was Matthew college. I named my email Matty.) No one said anything until SENIOR YEAR. It was my orchestra professor that hated me. Why did he say something? His name was actually “Matty.” He thought I was playing a trick on him or something, idk. I never fixed it, though. At that point, who cared.

    Isn’t this a tits-up?

    Anyway. The appropriate response should be for her to now change yours to Dick McGee and return the favour.

    Chuck E. Cheese in 14 years again?

    Is this an Apple thing? I’m checking mail headers for some of my sent email and I see “nickname”, headers shows “Email address”

    I changed my sons name to ‘Danger Wank’ on messenger. Unbeknown to me, everybody in the chat could see it.

  40. bikeonychus Avatar

    This is the only time ‘Thoughts and Prayers’ is the appropriate response.

    A local bar was doing this special last year where if you were a member of their loyalty program and ordered a Guinness in March, you’d get a pint glass with your name engraved on it. I had set my name in the program as “Butts McGee” just to be dumb and because it was funny seeing it on the receipts and seeing the bartenders laugh if they noticed. But they refused to put that on a glass because it was “inappropriate.” Didn’t even send me a blank glass or anything. I was pretty annoyed, because I don’t even like stouts and just bought the beer for the glass.

    This is the breast story I’ve read all week.

    A TIFU legend. Thanks for sharing OP.

    One detail that gives me after-giggles is that your wife’s been seeing “Tits McGee” on her screen for 14 years and just thought “it’s so clever how it shows my nickname only on two phones.”

    Thank you, Charles Entertainment Cheese for your dutiful service. I know you never had a chance to celebrate as a child, but we now celebrate your politeness as an adult.

    Yes, there is a lore to Chuck.

    OMG this is amazing and completely something that I can see being a simple mistake.

    I changed my wife’s name and photo to Dick Cheney and had a couple times where I had to explain it to others but nothing like this.

    Stand back folks, I found a thread I’m qualified to comment on.

  49. hushuk-me Avatar

    This happened to me, but it was my husband who changed his name to “My Hot Man Cake” in my phone. My co-workers get a good laugh out of it, and my kids roll their eyes when I ask Siri to “call My Hot Man Cake” lol

    As an IT guy who knows exactly how email works, this is so funny. Yes, among the many many flaws with the way email was originally designed, being able to set any label on the “rcpt to” part of an email is entirely up to the sender. You’d think email wouldn’t be like that, that the sender can’t claim arbitrary things and just make them reality, but email was created when the internet was made up of a bunch of people who basically trusted each other to not do stupid shit. Fast forward to now and you get to write Tits McGee on your outbound emails for the entire world to see by mistake.

    This is a blatant repost

  55. stupidinternetname Avatar

    I always thought the moniker was “Big Tits McGee”. I’m guessing by this time, the big is assumed.
