Real People Share Their Personal Stories of Petty Vengeance
The norms of society tell us that vengeance is bad, but what do they know? They’re not the ones who were wronged or had to suffer the long-lasting consequences of someone else’s actions. This is why some people resort to petty vengeance to get back at someone.
In most cases, their actions are more annoying than extremely harmful. Just ask these people who opted not to take the high road and chose vengeance instead. Their stories are, for the most part, hilarious and oh-so inspiring, but hopefully, no one went overboard because jail is no fun.
Empty Toilet Paper Rolls
Reddit user shanderdrunk didn’t appreciate his little sister never changing the toilet paper roll, so he used all the empty rolls she left behind to take sweet, petty revenge against her.
“My little sister NEVER changes the toilet paper roll. Like totally empty, roll under the counter, doesn’t bother to change it.
So I collected the empty rolls for about four months, and the next time she did it I took all of them, pulled up her sheets, and hid them all under the form-fitting sheet on the bed.
It took her a long time to find all of them.”
Peanut Butter Revenge
Reddit user benlara found a clever way to get his roommate to stop using his peanut butter. Unfortunately, for his roommate, it cost him more than a brand new jar of peanut butter.
“My roommate kept on grabbing my peanut butter without asking, so I bought a bottle of laxative and made sure all of it went into the jar. I locked the bathroom door when I left in the morning. He pooped on himself and all over his bed — it was so bad he had to buy a new one.”
The Coffee Deception
When a rude customer started treating the baristas at his joke like garbage, Reddit user midnight_trains and his co-workers decided to switch the guy’s caffeine order to decaf.
“I worked at a coffee shop in high school and this businessman came in every morning. He was always extremely rude and treated all the baristas like we were garbage. This guy truly talked to us like we were worthless servants.
Buddy would order a quad shot americano, so we collectively started pouring him only decaf. He would sometimes come in on his lunch break and would muse out loud about how coffee just didn’t get him going like it used to.”
Gummy Bear Meltdown
Reddit user JebbieSans187 was so heartbroken that he had been cheated on that he went to the nearest dollar store, bought himself a giant bag of gummy bears and used them to exact his revenge.
“My ex cheated.
There was a dollar store near her work that I liked. So I went in and spent a dollar on a giant bag of gummy bears. I opened the and ate one. It was sweet! I had another! So good! These were my favorite gummy bears by far!
I felt bad for wasting them by throwing them on her windshield on a hot day… but it was totally worth it.”
