This legendary two-parter was originally posted to Reddit's r/TIFU subreddit a whopping 7 years ago. The thread has since been accepted into Reddit's unofficial Hall of Fame and stands as one of the top posts of all time.

The original thread was posted by the husband, Redditor u/defenestrate_me_now, who told the tale from his point of view as it took place on that evening. This thread was posted with the title "TIFU by throwing my steak out a window" and starts on item #1 of this list. Two years later his wife, u/mrs_defenestrator, revisited the subject and returned to the sub to tell the story from her point of view. This thread was posted with the title "TIFU by allowing my husband to come to dinner at my boss' house" and begins on item #11.

Commenters, like the people present that fateful night, were perplexed by the logical reasoning behind his actions.

"One question OP.... Let's say the window was open and the steak is gone. She returns a minute later... What you just tell her you devoured it?" replied Hovathegodmc.
