TIFU by eating a huge amount of Mardi Gras Mustard from popeyes

r/

Man where do i begin 😭 Me and my friend had doordashed popeyes. I was having a sleepover at his house pretty much. It was like 9pm and we didn’t have much planned. We eventually got hungry and decided to doordash some food. It was between wingstop, or popeyes. We ended up ordering from popeyes. I decided to get like lots of packs of mardi gras mustard with my food (one of the best sauces oat). Me and bro were just scrolling on tiktok eating our food and my leg was kinda dry. Unbelievably dry. My friend didn’t have a problem with his food but my chicken leg was an issue.

I had opened like 4 packs of it & poured it all over the leg. I proceeded to try to eat it in one bite. As i did that, i started to feel the burning sensation in my nose. I was sweating and holding my face into my hands. My friend was just sitting (heard him laugh a little asking me if im good) and i wasn’t. My face was burning and when i got up to try to get a water bottle,i accidentally ran into a vase not paying attention. It was a Yugoslavian (?) vase i think and it got knocked over.

Holy shit dude my heart dropped & my friend seemed more freaked out than me. His dad must’ve heard the commotion so he came downstairs & he looked like a deer in headlights. He was saying freaking & panicking and started to raise his voice. All he was saying was ā€œNo No No!ā€. His mom eventually came out too. Eventually, his mom said ā€œSweetie, I believe it’s best if i should just take you home tonight. There’s a lot to unpack.ā€ I ended up going home that night.

TL;DR: I ate too much Mardi Gras mustard in one sitting, which caused me to try to get water which led me to bump into a vase due to me not being completely focused

    Damn. It will make a great story for later.

    You might be able to buy one online as an apologetic gesture.

    Are we using vase as a word for urn? Because otherwise why do we have important/ valuable items out in places they can be easily knocked over by kids eating too much hot stuff?

    What a bummer. Sounds like it was a sentimental item. I would highly encourage you to gift them a new vase. You’ll never replace it, but hopefully it will become a new item worthy of sentiment

    …and I would venture you were being silly and overacting to “get water” which more likely led to the vase being broken.
