Bored Panda has compiled a list of some of the most creative ways people proved their rightness, and it'll prove that sometimes you have to work to earn vindication.

From a contractor vouching for his cabinet's sturdiness to a guy showing a police officer how sober he is, these people were brave enough to do whatever it takes in the name of truth. Scroll down to check out the effort it sometimes takes to convince others, and vote for your favorite submissions!

This is a great lesson of things later on, should you ever get married. Jealousy is learned early and almost impossible to erase. If she gets excited over this, there will be worse to come.

You have got to be kidding me. She needs to grow up and You need to move on from her. Trust me, if this is all it takes to make her jealous and paranoid now, it'll only get worse the longer you're together. Hard to hear, but it's the truth.

It would be interesting to discover how he went about doing that. Did he lay a grid-work and use his artistic skills, or die he tape off every dirty square before cleaning the floor?
