My Ex cheated with a married man. He now lives with her. He is a POS.. but anyway, I still have login for her DVR. I logged in, erased all her shows, then recorded only the show "Cheaters." Petty, but it makes me laugh.

I had a guy in school who would always skip class and then ask for my notes. We had a group project worth almost 40% of our grade and he did zero work, and the prof told me tough luck. Instead of just saying no the next time he asked for notes, I took the low road and began giving him edited versions.
I would leave items out of lists, incorrectly define things or just straight up write stuff that makes no sense.
An example of the crap I would put in: To calculate return on investment, subtract

I wonder how long it took him to notice. IF he noticed at all... ;)

My best friend at the time slept with my then boyfriend, and told everyone before I found out so that I looked like the bad person for being pissed. Jokes on her, for the rest of high school I was SUPER nice so that whenever she was bitchy with me everyone got pissed with her need to be a twat. Everyone hated her by graduation for her need to be so mean to someone so nice for no reason.

Well, when I was younger, my older brother used to pick on me all the time-- punch me and such. I had dealt with it for years. One day, we were in the backyard just talking, as families do, and out of nowhere I decide that I gonna get my revenge then and there. I ran with my arm out and my hand in a fist, and I hit him right in the junk. I hit him so hard that he dropped to the ground, and I'm happy to say, he cried. To this day, that is still one of my proudest moments. He was 16 and I was 8.

in school, a boy named Sebastian picked on my 9 yo daughter by constantly calling her a whale and pushing her around because she was chubby. I suggested she started calling him SebastiANUS in front of their classmates. She did and he now learned to think twice before being an arse to other kids.

I spread Justin Bieber photos all over the outside of his apartment... mainly shirtless. It took me hours to print them out that big. He was on vacation with "his family" (aka his TWO OTHER GFs and three children). Record poster size: 10ft by 7ft. Nobody called the cops and some of the neighbors actually helped. One of them even et me use his Go Pro to film his "Surprise." I dumped him then and there.

Something similar happened to me at a birthday party: A boy tried to suffocate me under a pillow, and when I was leaving the party, he sprayed air freshener in my face.

My ex left one day when I was at swimming lessons with our kids. He also took half the furniture. I had to explain where dad was and why our house was half empty. I was a stay-at-home mum back then. I had no paid work but he left me to pay the rent. When he came back to collect more stuff he took the groceries I had bought that morning. In short, he was a cheap, cowardly weasel. I threw the key to his vintage Harley in the ocea.

I once ordered hoodia pills for weight loss from a website I'd come across. After a month of waiting, I started emailing and calling. Every time, I would get hung up on and once they actually yelled at me to not call again. It was a scam. I realized the numbers were the cell phone numbers of the "president" and "vice president". I wrote a code to auto send annoying text messages to them every 15 seconds, rendering their phones useless. It didn't take long for them to call and give me a refund.

Out of all the postings here, this is the best. It does not involve violence, it does not involve harsh revenges for seemingly small deeds, but it describes how to hit the parasites of economy where it hurts. Scammers and fraudsters often pester those who can least fight it (like the elderly). They deserve any economic damage they can get. I doubt we can teach them morales or even empathy, but we can hinder the flourishing of their "business model".

In eighth grade, I didn't invite a girl to a party and she spread a rumor about one girl and her boyfriend having sex on my bed (her imagination, not mine.), so when she wasn't paying attention, I opened several tabs on her computer and looked up some... 'interesting' things (feet, asian feet, beautiful feet, latina feet, etc.) I'm not exactly proud of it, but she shouldn't be proud of herself with such a search history.

When in 6th grade, a girl spread rumours about me. Weeks later she was bragging about another classmate who 'called her a whore, and I'm not taking that.' Then I said one of the meanest things I remember saying: "Would you take it if you got money for it?" It isn't in any way related, I know it wasn't a thing to be proud of, but I really got the feeling then I was written by genius screenwriters.

Ok so once this boy in my class who sat behind me, kept flicking his fidget spinner and putting it against my back. (This guy was a complete ass) well anyways, after the twentieth time, I got a tube of super glue, and glued all three of his fidget spinners to his phone case, but not before dripping some glue into the spinning mechanism, so it would never work again.

This jackass who sat behind me in 6th grade was constantly kicking me in the backs of my legs. One day I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, so when he kicked me, I remembered that the boots I were wearing had metal heels. (My dad was super paranoid about stuff like that, making me wear them every Friday.) so I decided to lift my foot up the next time he kicked me. I felt him trying to kick me, then heard a cracking sound. The next day he came to school wearing sandals and three of his toes

My ex cheated on me with multiple girls. Day before I moved out I set my phone as our home network admin, connected his PC and TV to it and installed little app that allows me to control the network remotely. For a month I would randomly turn his Internet on/off, turn volume down on TV and open random crap in his browser. He believed his neighbours are stealing his WiFi and that is why his electronics are messed up. After a month I was over it, got bored an stopped. He still doesn't have a clue

Way back in say grade 7, I was being bullied by this kid, kid A. I had been one of the first to hit puberty and develop hair in my armpit. kid A with his friend B would keep singing the jungle part of the Tarzan theme song while wiggling their fingers in their armpit. I didn't really care, because I had great friends and they were just stupid boys... but over time it grated on me. At school I was well known for being more interested in books than my lessons and I often read through my class to

the annoyance of my teacher. Anyway Kid A sat behind me and often kicked my chair. Up until this point I never reacted because I wanted to be the bigger person and not as despicable as him. But one day the teacher left and he was kicking me. I couldn't focus on my book because for once I felt pissed. Then I had a brilliant idea. I suddenly stood up, turned around, flipped his desk, turned back around, sat down picked up my book and commenced feigned reading while I watched what went down. The teacher returned a moment or so after I had sat down and she asked Kid A why he had flipped his desk. He said that I had done it. The teacher walked over to me and looked at me, intent on my book, and asked me if I had done it. As usual when I'm caught up in my book. I didn't respond. This act exonerated me and kid A got in trouble for flipping his desk and had to clean the mountain of papers up. I felt so happy and he never bothered me again.

A cousin of mine told a nasty lie about me. A boy in our neighborhood had died of AIDS and she told people that I had slept with him. So throughout my teens, people thought I had AIDS. Anyway, one day at a family get together, we had coconuts as refreshments. My uncle cut the top off one and handed me to take to her. Well, I drank the water out of it, hid in a corner and peed in it and then gave it to her. She took a full swig before she realized she had a mouth full of piss.

My class had an english teacher, who was also our headmistress. She was Virgo and she lacked any sense of humor plus, she gave us enormous homework we barely managed to deal with and made fun of us constantly. I'm writer, so I composed an ode featuring the dark side of all school subjects. My class approved its humor first and so did the whole school and all teachers later. With the exception of our headmistress. She was really offended but couldn't fight back because it was our last year there.

I was paying back a friend so I put the money on the table. This other girl just grabbed the money and ran off to buy some food. I gave the other girl another dollar because I actually know how to be polite. The following week, I told the thief that she owes me a dollar but she denied it and said that she didn't take anything. The next time I asked for my money back she said that it was MY fault that SHE stole my money. I know it is stupid, but I "borrowed" a dollar and never paid her back. HA.

My neighbour constantly complains about every little thing I do in my own house. In context she's says that I (a 41kg girl, stomp like an elephant up my stairs) Last complaint was because my AstroTurf was 'on her side of the balcony' it was touching the fence between our balconies. Best part is I didn't Even need petty revenge, she complained so much about so little that the council never even takes her seriously anymore!

Actually, calling the cops is entirely appropriate. This sort of behavior tends to escalate and you shouldn't have to wait for a girl to get raped before reporting them.

In college I had a roommate who was super dirty and loud in the morning, even when i asked her nicely to clean the room with me and stop slamming the door in the morning, she didn't care. Eventually, i only cleaned my half of the room, and swept all the dust into her side... (i know, technically the room is still dirty) I also ate a lot of her favorite food, mainly canned food she got imported from her country...

I had a roomate once in a dorm who left cat puke on my side of the room when I was gone for a week. I was livid & she shrugged it off saying that it was my side of the room. Wtf?! So you just live with stale puke for a week?? She actually got rid of OUR kitten too without asking me. Just set it outside & shut the door because at 3 months old "she should be able to take care of herself."

A 9 year old was bullying my 8 year old sister, so I went up to her in front of her whole class and used all of her three middle names. It just got worse so I eventually told my teacher, who told my little sisters teacher, who told the bully's mum and all the other teachers, who then put the bully's class though a hour of watching anti-bullying videos. I'm so proud of myself!

Not my revenge but my cat's. One night I came home drunk, bent over to pet my cat and accidentally threw up on him. Worst of all, I had to give him a bath which was not appreciated. Next night, I hear a strange sound. He threw out his furrball in my hair and walked off all proud of himself. I deserved it 😂

I was a target for physical bullying. I would scratch the people hurting me. The people oblivious to the bullies thought I was hurting THEM. So I would get in trouble for defending myself. I also threw my shoes at them. Now everybody is afraid of me because they didn't believe my "excuses" for violence. Now, I have social anxiety and depression. Thanks, bullies!

Employer Part Two: The day finally came and I had reached my limit and immediately quit while he screamed at me to “get my s**t and get out of the studio.” I calmly said “I am going to take the time I need to collect my stuff and by the way you are an a*****e.” I was being screamed at for the next 10-15 minutes while I gathered my items and left. A few days later I found out from a friend in the design industry that the day after I left the “monster’s” showroom was broken into and burglarized. The wall mounted plasma television was literally ripped off of the wall. Needless to say I had nothing to do with that and was so happy to be freed that I did not relish with the information of the burglary. Less than two months later I received a call from the “demon” desperate for me to come back. FYI: I was not easily replaceable. The monster said “ I would love to have you back as I busy with some fantastic new clients and I will pay you double your previous salary. I said no and hung up.
