“Revenge is a dish best served cold,” is a line uttered by one of the most iconic Star Trek villains. It’s attributed to the brutal but honorable race of Klingons who believe it’s most satisfying to exact vengeance on someone when they’re least expecting it.

Whilst that may be true, it’s also enjoyable to serve it in the most immature way too. Introducing: r/PettyRevenge. The online community allows people to share their stories of payback in the most appropriate but petty way possible.

Bored Panda has collected the most ridiculous, cunning and hilarious ones. It shows why you should never mess with someone with too much time on their hands—they won’t give up on pursuing justice, no matter what it takes.

40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I wear hearing aids, and a girl in my high school math class used to make fun of me. I had not said two words to her and gave her no reason to do it, she was just being evil. I recording her mocking my hearing loss on my phone and played it for her parents. They took the new car they just bought her back to the dealership.

There are over 1M people following the r/PettyRevenge page, so watch out who you cross—they might be following the page and have a few ideas on how to get back at you. It’s always satisfying when those who have wronged us get their ‘just deserts’, especially when it’s by our hand. 

Revenge is one of the great motivators and it’s the basis for many tales of fiction. The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas is considered one of the most iconic (and serves as a caution of the cost to seeking revenge) but one of my personal favorites comes from The Princess Bride.

ADVERTISEMENT

Expert swordsman, Inigo Montoya, is looking forward to his revenge so much that he knows exactly what he wants to say to his wrongdoer: "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." He’s quite blunt in his motivation for vengeance and (hilariously) repeats this until finally besting his rival in a climactic duel. It serves as a conclusion to both the battle and his story, which is probably why it’s so satisfying as well.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I have a friend whose pumpkinfall display at the end of his driveway would be run over by the neighborhood jerk. happened every year. my friend decided to put a stop to it. he withdrew money from his savings account so he would have enough to buy the largest punkin he could find, along with several large bags of Quikcrete. filled that puppy up and made a real pretty display. The jacka*s broke the axle of his shotty car when he hit that pumpkin. could not drive away. my friend had his car towed away, too.

    I read a story very similar to this on buzzfeed petty revenge and it was identical except the hay, corn stalks, and large pumpkin was empty, but hiding a very large boulder that they'd gotten for yard decor/detourant and the car did race up into it blindly and break the axel and suspension under the car leaving it undriveable and it had to be towed. A fantastic story about justice served 👏

    We had someone who would run over cats overnight, most didn’t seem to be on the road; this was a new neighborhood in a rural area, so no sidewalks. I used to go out at night with cutouts of cats with reflectors for eyes and cinder block centers (sandwich style) & place them just off the side of the road. It took about a week but he finally took the bait & smashed his tire & underside of the car up. He got stuck on the brick. I was watching all this from my window. He got out and discovered my “cat”. He was furious, but cats stopped getting run over. I never said anything because I didn’t want to get in trouble for wrecking his car. I was around 15.

    But revenge is a tale as old as time, with it even being encouraged in the Old Testament of The Bible as the adage: “eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth”. This is put into effect in the character of Shylock from Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. By no means someone that we should root for, he said he will give as good as he gets, and seek revenge on those who wrong him for being a Jew. 

    He likens revenge to an intrinsic, built-in part of ourselves, such as an organ. Shylock said, “I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions?”

    “If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?”

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I’ve told this one before, but it makes me happy to retell it. I had a boss 7-8 years ago whom I hated. She was the fakest and most entitled person I had ever met. One day, she decided that she didn’t like the smell of microwave popcorn... So she waved her magic office wand and had it banned. Fast forward a month or so. I was browsing Amazon and found one of those USB sticks that emits a smell when plugged in...the smell of buttered popcorn. I bought it, plugged it into the back of her computer, and she had the sweet smell of PopSecret in her office for six f**king months. She complained almost every day. It’s the sweetest revenge I’ve ever tasted.

    To be fair it is pretty inconsiderate to make microwave popcorn at work, as well as re-heating fish or any other type of smelly food. Save those things for home, and don't force other people to smell things they have an aversion to.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I found out my then boyfriend was cheating on me. And he threw my dog across the room when we were discussing what he had done. I moved out immediately. More for hurting my dog than anything. So as I was moving out I took his entire porn collection and microwaved them one by one. It only takes 3 second each. Took me about an hour to go thru them all. I put them back in the case, then back where they belonged. Not sure if the microwave was still usable, did not really care. He was also a manager at a restaurant and would bring home tons of food. They had really nice coolers that the food came in so I called the GM and explained I had moved out and that I wanted to return the boxes. He lost his job. Then I was getting collection calls for him. Gave him the new girls work and personal number so they could find him. Dont mess with my dogs.

    It’s an interesting point that Shakespeare makes: the biological need for revenge. One study reviews whether this was an evolutionary trait that has been passed down from our hunter-gatherer days as a necessity for keeping society in check. 

    Dr. Ernst Fehr of the University of Zurich behind the paper told The New York Times about his belief in it. He said, "It's a very important force for establishing large-scale cooperation. Every citizen is a little policeman in a sense. There are so many social norms that we follow almost unconsciously, and they are enforced by the moral outrage we expect if we were to violate them.''

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread Not me, but for my wife. When we were younger and kind of on hard times,she took a pretty shady job at a local factory. The first two weeks she was there, she had her lunch stolen at least 5 or 6 times. Even open drinks. I was pretty pissed, a lot of times I would grill for her or make her lunch, and she was going hungry. One night I bought a big a*s Gatorade and a box of those women's laxitives, both red in color. Couldn't tell the two were mixed, but we found out who the thief was.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I moved to America to be with this guy (let's call him Richard). Richard happened to work at the same big box store as my friend J, and one day when I came to meet J from work, a coworker innocently said "Are you looking for Richard? He's staying with his girlfriend." Me: "I'M HIS GIRLFRIEND." Now another thing you should know about Richard is he bought his toothbrushes wholesale and lived in the grungiest apartment ever. I cleaned every inch of that bathroom, toilet included, with each and every one of those remaining toothbrushes, documenting every step with photographs. Then I rinsed them in the toilet, and put them back in the box. And I packed my s**t and left. Ten years later, when I'd calculated he was on the last brush, I sent him the pictures.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread My little brother and his girlfriend came to stay at my house for the weekend, and the girlfriend was super self centered and obnoxious. When they left, she forgot her clothes and toiletries because she left them sprawled all over my bathroom. About a week later, she and my brother moved into an apartment together. After he paid for the moving truck, deposit and utilities, she cheated on him with her ex and kicked him out of the apartment. This left him broke, homeless, and heart broken. In the days after the breakup, she kept calling and emailing him several times per day, demanding that he ask me to ship her clothes and toiletries back to her ("I mean, it's really important. It's my NORTHFACE.") My brother called and pleaded with me to ship them to her so she would stop having a reason to contact him. Being the loving sister that I am, I gathered up the Really Important Northface sweatshirt, shorts, underwear, shampoo, conditioner, soap and razor. I folded everything nicely. I then wrote a nice note apologizing for taking so long to mail them to her, and let her know that I hope all is well. The note was written in permanent marker, and the paper happened to be resting on the Really Important Northface when I wrote it. Unfortunately, the ink bled straight through the paper and onto the shirt. Also unfortunately, the shampoo, soap and conditioner caps were not tightly secured on their bottles, and the contents leaked out all over the clothes, further spreading the ink. The most unfortunate result, though, was that her razor didn't have any sort of protective cap or container and left little slashes all over the front of the Really Important Northface. She received the package, and my brother never heard from her again.

    My son had a bottle of coke in the fridge at work. Someone kept draining it. We filled a half full bottle up with balsimicum vinager. Didn't happen anymore.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread Grounded yet again by my Angry Dad for breathing whilst his ballgame was on, I was stuck in my bedroom bored witless. For something to do I flicked the light switches on and off (pre-mobile era folks, we had to make our own fun...). It was then I discovered that this made a loud buzzing static interference on the TV in the lounge. Cue the next 5 years of petty revenge... Angry Dad never figured out why we had such a bad TV signal at game time, he never connected it with me being sent to my room and flicking the light switch every few minutes, reveling as he yelled futilely at the static dancing across the TV.

    Delivered pizzas about a week for my best friend's shop. Warned me about a few customers, but one in particular was always rude to the drivers and never tipped. Lucky for me, I got to deliver his order of a single calzone, maybe $6 or $7 total, and he tried to pay with a $50 bill. All the menus and the website prominently said nothing over a $20 bill for deliveries, and he'd been their customer long enough to know that. But when I told him this while explaining how I didn't have enough change, he got extremely rude and was loud about how it's not his fault and that drivers should always carry enough money on them. So I did what any person in that situation should do, and told him not to worry about it, and I'd pay for the order. For those few seconds he thought he'd won a free calzone - until I pulled it out and started eating it as I walked back to my car.

    Cute story, not revenge...my grandmother was a school teacher in a VERY small town, so she basically taught every child born in the area. My aunt had condromalacia patelar when she was in high school. My grandmother sent a note explaining that my aunt couldn't participate in gym class for several weeks. She had spelled the word incorrectly and the gym teacher (whom she had taught) sent the note back and asked Grandmommy to correct her spelling and then write the word ten times and send it back to her. Thank goodness my grandmother had a sense of humor.

She opened the letter, read it, CORRECTED it and sent it back to the poor boy. He never spoke to my mother again. She was heartbroken. Some time later she met the boys sister and was told what happened. Big meltdown at home, including my mom saying she will kill herself (What a young girl says when her mother ruined her relationship). The only thing my grandma said about it "You shouldn't meet with such fools who can't even write properly."

    Electric fence memories. My son and his best friend are both 4. We are all at a friends house who has a horse and warns us all the fence is electric because the horse keeps escaping to the neighborhood. My son's friend touches the fence and screams loudly then starts crying. My son listens and watches all this. He then proceeds to also grab the fence. He is gifted (eye roll).

    My cousin did that with his classic MG A but as he didn't have an electric fence he plugged it directly into his 220V outdoor circuit. The thief made an anonymous call to the police who came out and between chuckles him informed of several things- It had to be entirely on his property, it had to have warning signs posted, and if he used a transformer to lower it to below 50V it would hurt but not injure a thief.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread An uncle of mine was a serious addict and an all around a**hole. When I was a kid it was pretty common for him to steal from my grandparents, including a lot of things they intended to give me when I was older (a coin collection, things like that). There's a long list of things he did over the course of my life to piss me off, but I'll skip to the petty revenge. I was browsing the local county website and noticed there was a section for active warrants. I wondered if any familiar names were listed so I browsed it and to my complete lack of surprise, I saw my uncle's name listed for something minor. Then I saw the Crime Stoppers number at the top of the page. I knew where he was living at the time and it was anonymous, so what the hell? I called, described him and told them where he was. They gave me a reference number and told me to call back in two weeks. For the sake of being thorough, I called a relative from the other side of the family who, funny enough, was not only a cop but also in charge of following up on these things. I told him the situation and he said he'd prioritize it. Two weeks later, I call Crime Stoppers for an update and they said the tip did indeed lead to an arrest and asked which post office I preferred. I was confused but I named one. They gave me an alias, told me to give that name to the clerk and there would be a general delivery envelope with $200 cash inside. That part was unexpected but a sweet bonus for sure. Easiest $200 I ever made.

    I don't like this.It's totally wrong to steal,but addiction causes people to do drastic things out of desperation. In my opinion a user's state of mind is to take drugs in order to block out pain and/or trauma,the feeling of the pain going away is as much,if not more,addictive than the actual drug. Tormenting someone in pain is cruel, and in their most desperate and lonely time is a horrible thing to do.Plus it won't stop the stealing because they are addicted and unhappy as it is and this will only need drugs to take that feeling away. It's a vicious circle. The Uncle needs help.I was an addict on the streets,I did things like steal,out of desperation. It wasn't who I was inside.I was broken,full of self-loathing and suicidal and my state of mind was all over the place. I'm 4 years clean now and I pay my price with guilt.He can't make amends if he never gets the chance.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread There's a new truck in my apartment's parking lot. Always taking up multiple spots, ALWAYS. Weird angles, close to the stairs, all over the place (no assigned parking unfortunately). Months of this. I drive a much smaller car than that, and I'm petty/passive aggressive, I've been waiting for my chance. A few days ago was my shot. I got home quite late and there were zero spots open in my lot. Big truck is double parked again, but there's juuust enough room on their driver side for me to sneak in there with my little clown car. I carefully pull in, making sure not to touch anything, no damage, no nothing. My passenger side mirror is half and inch from their driver side door. I giggled to myself all the way back to my apartment and set an alarm and waited. The following morning I wake up before the alarm to loud door slamming and stomping around I check out my window and I see the double parking culprit walking around both vehicles, taking pictures, texting someone, taking more pictures, I'm shaking with glee. They then swallow their pride, let out a visual sigh, and climb in the passenger side, clamber over the center console, and Austin Powers 20 point turn their butts out of the spot. I've never been so proud of myself and my s**tty, petty, passive aggressive ways.

    I was parked normal in a spot and someone did this and I too had to go through the passenger side. The thing is I was in the right, he wasn’t. Once I got inside I opened my drivers side doors as hard as I could and it left a huge dent and scratch on his door. I left a nice note that just simply stated that I was sorry for the damage but he left me no choice since he parked like an asshole.

    I'm so happy that my 2013 car is at the point that I'm unafraid to do this. We get more than our fair share of people parking over the lines at work, and I'll just slide right in there. I don't purposefully block their driver door, but if that's the part over the line, then guess what. I always take a quick pic with my phone as I leave and be sure to get their license plate # in it.

    A couple of weeks ago, I was heading out to my car from the gym when a guy pulled into the parking spot next to mine. Humongous effing truck, one of those ones that takes up almost too much space even if it's parked correctly-- and this guy was cleanly over the line and into my space. So, before he'd even cut the engine, I got into my car. How? By inserting myself between the vehicles and verrrrry slowly and noisily edging my way to the door, rubbing hard against his truck (my bag's zipper may or may have not been accidentally involved). By the time I'd opened my door just enough to squeeze myself in octopus-like, he'd gotten the message. As I left, he made an attempt to reposition his behemoth as if other people existed.

    We have assigned parking in our condo. Two spots, but at the time only one car. Someone kept parking in our extra space, which we can't see from our unit, so I would drive by once a week or so to check. I left a very polite note on the vehicle parked there, but made sure to snap pics of the space number with their license plate showing along with the note. Sure enough a few days later and it's back. I could tell it had moved and the note was missing, so I snapped another pic (date stamped) and called the towing company. I watched from afar as the truck hooked her up and she came running out screaming at the driver - who then proceeded to show her his mobile phone, where I had sent him the pics I had taken to prove she was parked in our space. She just swore and stomped off. Probably cost her about $200, but entitled bitches like that just infuriate me. For the record, I wasn't just being a bitch as we were in the process of getting a second car and needed our parking space.

    HA! A kindred spirit!! I did the same thing, except my shoes don't actualy have laces. The driver in question first stopped, flustered by me sitting there tying my shoes while smiling up at him. My shoes are dull blue leather mocassin type things from decades ago, and I like brightly coloured socks. Needless to say, he eventually noticed the lack of laces, and went from exasperated to apoplectic in all of two seconds. Got out of his car screaming, I answered in french and pretended to be an exchange student. Went home with a HUGE grin on my face.

    I had this happen to me when I was walking my dog who was wearing a Red Cross harness. (Complicated legislation at the time for the particular job my dog was doing meant that he had a similar harness to seeing-eye dogs, despite me not being visually impaired.) Oh, the look on the driver's face when he noticed. Shame I didn't snap a picture, the memory still makes me happy.

    I've had this happen when crossing with my young son (not in a stroller, but walking). Yes little kids walk slow. No, I can't always pick him up (I have arthritis and was also carrying something in the other hand). I was at a crosswalk, so right of way (in a beach town, no less. Not like a bustling city). Usually I get anxiety and would try to usher my son faster or (painfully) pick him up. But this jackass barely stopped for us at the last second, so I gave the driver the thumb's up (my family's passive agreessive version of the middle finger) and let my little boy take his sweet time crossing.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I was dating this girl and thought she was the one, so I gave her the keys to my apartment. I worked late for my job, so I was just happy there was someone in my bed. I came home one night and she was awake. She confessed to using my apartment to cheat on me with seven different people, so I packed her stuff up. I then lied to her and said I moved to Seattle, but moved to Hawaii instead. Three month's after being in Hawaii, I get a phone call from her. To my surprise she's called me from the Seattle airport. She flew out there to try and fix things between us. Me: So you're in Seattle? Her: Yeah! Weren't you listening? I came here to fix us. Me: Oh...well, that's too bad. Her: What's bad? Me: I'm in Hawaii. (Hung up the phone.) (Phone rings again.) Her: YOU LIED TO ME! Me: How does it feel?

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I used to manage a Starbucks when one of my baristas asked a guy his name and he just flipped the f**k out belittling her, called her stupid etc and didn’t give a name. Anyway I take over the hand off drinks and place his drink just on the hand off with no words. (I’ll add it was a busy store with a lot of people waiting. I just keep putting drinks out for about 10/15 minutes and douchebag walks up and picks up his drink that’s now lukewarm and goes “is this mine?” I just respond with “I don’t know it doesn’t have a name on it”.

    I don’t know if it’s because I’m a mother or what but I have zero tolerance for bullies. I used to manage stores and if any of my employees were mistreated like that I would (and frequently did) have slapped the money back down in the counter and told them to get the f**k out of my store. I don’t tolerate bullies and my staff were my team. No one messed with my people and treats them like trash. Most managers need to grow a pair and stand up for their people. The customer can eat s**t. I was promoted over and over and corporate at every store I managed absolutely loved me because my numbers were always fantastic because my employees were actually happy and actually tried at their jobs. Treating people well is effective! And the right thing to do. I wish more mangers could see this!

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread We were kids staying at the seaside on holiday with our family. My little sister would always make a pretty sandcastle, and the next day it would have been kicked down and she'd cry. We wanted to find out who was doing it, so one day we stayed behind to spy. We watched as a bunch of jerk older boys came by and kicked her castle down, laughing smugly. So the next night, we covered a big beach rock in sand and decorated it. Like clockwork, the jerk kids came with their smug faces and this time kicked a solid rock with all of their might. The yowl and the look on their faces was the best revenge ever.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I’m in a class where a group research project/presentation is a huge chunk of overall points. Everyone knows in group projects you always have that one slacker who doesn’t do anything that you have to compensate for. However, I got stuck with possibly the worst 3 people to be in a project with in the class. I did the entire research, presentation, poster boards, etc among many other annoying things myself. I tried talking to them and telling them they needed to put in their share of effort. Ignored. I’d send them tasks to do, ignored. I’d try to schedule meetings, they’d say they were coming and then leave me alone at the library. This happened from the get go. It was abundantly clear that they expected everyone else to do the work, but “everyone else” turned out to be just me. Rule: We couldn’t have things 100% memorized word for word, and we couldn’t read off of anything. We had to actually know the subject. I was fully prepared to do most of the talking and even wrote down a small script for them and told them to know what to say during their part, at the very least. The night before I told them we had to meet to at least go over the whole thing one time. Once again, none of them showed. At this point I’m livid and decide they can just do it themselves, which means they’d get up there, not know a damn thing to say other than the small info I gave them, and couldn’t even bullsh*t anything because they did no research. Thing is, if we miss without an excuse, we fail the project. If you have an excuse, you have to have documentation. I commute and live an hour away, so I decide that I’ll conveniently have a flat tire right before class. Went out and actually bought a tire so I could have the receipt to prove it. Emailed the professor, who said I can present by myself during his office hours. Turns out, they completely bombed, and not only probably failing the project, but since they’re bad students, might even fail the class.

    I had a team project in grad school. One teammate, call her A, was from mainland China and basically couldn't speak English (not sure how she managed, but apparently did). B was from Taiwan. OK English. C was from Middle East somewhere. Also OK English. In the end, A handled all the CASE tool modeling. B did a ton of research/graphics/figures. I (being the only native English speaker) wrote all the text for the final report. The three of us worked closely throughout the entire project. C? he did nothing. As part of the submission, we had to each "grade" each other with a percentage of how much we contributed. I basically said A, B, and I each did a third of the work, and C nothing. For a week after grades came out he kept calling asking/begging me to go talk to the Prof and tell her how much he did, because if he fails he'll lose his student visa and have to return home. My response each time was just, "just take the final report and point to everything you did". Which, obviously he couldn't do. Never heard nor saw him ever again.

    I was in a similar situation with this one entitled student. He had no time to be bothered with the particulars, just email me he would say. But every time we emailed him, he had no answer and refused to do some research to find out. So when we presented (and mind you he didn't show up for the presentation) his name was not on the presentation or the paper the group submitted. Just imagine the frantic phone I got when he was put on academic probation.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread My coworker sometimes throws out her lunch in the garbage can at my desk instead of her own, because she claims she can't stand the smell of old ketchup that's been sitting out for a couple hours. I've asked her several times to stop, but she will then just wait until I get up to go to the bathroom and do it, and hide my garbage can under my desk so she thinks I won't see it. Every time she does it, I wait until she goes to the bathroom, take out the little plastic container that she had ketchup in, and put it way in the back of her bottom desk drawer. There's 6 in there now, the oldest is over a month old. So far, she hasn't noticed the smell. Gonna keep doing it and see how long it takes her to notice.

    Here are some comments from the original post. Which of you broke off the engagement? ChickenNuggetBeebs I did. But I had purchased my own ring. He’d somehow gotten ahold of it after the fact and “got rid of it” without my knowledge.

    A young guy down the street was constantly speeding through the neighborhood. He gets home from work around the same time every day and always rips it down the street to his driveway. I called the city and had a cop come out and do radar. He got a dangerous driving charge and stopped speeding around here

    I hate people like that. We live in the main street of a very small village that should be super quiet but it turns out that the street is connected to the road between two towns and people never slow down for the village. It should be 30km/h (as it is in the small streets in the town) vut since its more convenient its 50km/h. Thats way too fast for the tiny sidewalk we have and super noisy. Specially because we have a primary school there and plenty of children crossing. Many arent happy with 50 and go much faster. The other day a car passed me at 62km/h in the middle of the centrum (we have a sign to show you if you are going too fast but unlukily it isnt a radar). Assholes.

    Part 1: I used to live on the corner of a street that had a lot of young kids in it, including my own. One day there was the sound of squealing tyres outside my place, but when I ran outside there was only the smoke of burnt rubber and the sound fading into the distance, but there were some shocked kids and parents standing around. I spoke to them, but no-one knew where this driver lived. This started happening regularly, so I took it upon myself to play cat and mouse. Since it happened at roughly the same time of day, I started sitting in my car with a book, and the engine running ready to move. Soon enough I caught him drifting around the corner and burning rubber along the street, so I chased as much as I could without being super obvious. He lived a few streets away from my place, but chose mine to drive dangerously in before going home. Since he slowed down before his own place, I actually spotted his car pulling into his driveway and parking. (see part 2)

    Part 2: Later that same night, someone came along (I'll let you guess who it might have been) after midnight, and quietly let down all four tyres of that car and removed the valve cores. The valve cores were left in an envelope tucked under the windscreen wiper. Imagine his disappointment, when he replaced them and tried to reinflate his tyres, to find that some nasty person had totally slashed the inner walls of those tyres with a box-cutter. It never happened again.

    The last neighbor on our dead end street (filled with children and pets) did this same thing, also at the same time. My neighbors and I took turns standing in the middle of the street, forcing her to stop, then we'd slowing walk down to her house. Took about a week, but she finally caught on.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread So I’m at Costco, in need of dog food, and it’s ridiculously busy for a Monday. Barely any parking spots until I spot one at the end of the lot. I make my way down the aisle, and am about to turn into the parking spot when a lady RUNS OVER THE CURB and almost hits me to take the spot. Thankfully I tapped my brakes in time or she would have taken off my bumper. I look up and she is shaking her head and wagging her finger in a “no” motion at me. WTF? I was like okay I’ll just wait for her to back up since I’m obviously turning into the spot. She doesn’t. My girlfriend is with me and was pissed that the lady wasn’t budging. I gave her my Costco card and just sat in the aisle in a face off with this lady. She goes inside, gets the dog food, comes back out, and loads up the car. She then pushes the cart into the spot we were waiting for and hops in the car. The look on the woman’s face was enough to give me satisfaction for a week. She had to get out and move the cart so she could park once I reversed through the entire aisle. Worth it.

    I love this story, but I'm struggling with how you guys stayed in a standoff the entire time it took your gf to go into Costco, get the food, get through the line, and come back out? That's ten minutes MINIMUM. If you guys were in a standoff for even half that, I gotta think there should be a lot more to this story... not to mention a gridlocked parking lot. What am I missing here?

I made plans to move out the next month. In the meantime, she went out of town for a week, and left her car parked in its usual spot in the parking lot. I threw birdseed on it every morning and evening, so when she came home, the birds wouldn't leave her car alone.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread Went to a restaurant for lunch during a work shift. Out of three parking spots somebody decided to park across every single one. There were no other parking spots at the time. So i decided to park within half a foot from my passenger side to his driver door. Ordered and got my food, and noticed an older (60+) man leave and walk in the direction of our parked cars. When I left and walked towards my car, sure enough he was there, tray of drinks in one hands and a bag of food in the other, just absolutely struggling to get into his vehicle. He called out about why I parked like this and my only reply was “why did you park across 3 spots, park like and a*s you better expect to be treated like one”

    My friend in high school was such a drama queen but it worked out hilariously sometimes. He was cut off by a driver who had no brake lights and it pissed him off so badly that he followed until a cop was behind, merged around the guy and then brake checked him so the cop would see that he had no brake lights. The holler he let out when the cop pulled the other guy over is still one of the funniest moments of my life

    At my previous job, we had separate refrigerators for the different shifts. Our food was constantly constantly being stolen or messed with. One day, my buddy and I decided to make a nice cherry cheesecake... out of cooking lard. We finished it off with graham cracker crust and cut a couple of slices out of it since we knew the thief wouldn’t be brazen enough to take the first bite. We never found out who the thief was, but we never had to worry about anyone messing with our food ever again.

    This happened almost a decade ago with my first boyfriend. He was a manipulative, selfish, raging douchebag and I was a 16 year old with no self esteem. A match made in hell. He basically lived at my house and had me cook for him all the time. He was trying to impress one of my "gangster" pot growing neighbors so he would have me make them snacks multiple times a day. His favorite thing to eat was french fries. I would be making 3 or 4 batches a day. Since I was cooking so many fries I would keep the crisco I used to fry them in an empty coffee tin in the fridge. Over the course of 3 days the crisco smelled exactly like potatoes. So my ex asks me to make him some french fries yet again (I'm the only one paying for them btw). When I tried to serve myself a plate of the fries I had just cooked he yelled at me and said these were only for him and his friend. He took the whole heaping plate and ran off! My blood was boiling and I plotted revenge! I waited for the crisco to solidify and I whipped it with a fork so it looked like mashed potatoes. Because of the many batches of fries it smelled like mashed potatoes too. Now I just had to wait. Soon enough my ex was back and he was still hungry because of all the pot he smoked with my neighbor. He had the balls to ask me for more fries! So I sweetly told him that I'd made mashed potatoes for him while he was gone. He was so pleased! He said "Thanks babe!" And took the biggest spoonfull he could straight put of the pot. He put the overflowing spoon straight into his gob with a huge smile on his face. His smile quickly turned into disgust and he started violently throwing up in the sink. He never asked me to make fries again in our short relationship. I broke up with him btw.

She slowly hopped off the bed, turned to look at me , sat down, and WHILE MAINTAINING EYE CONTACT scooted her a*s across the floor, leaving a nice little poop mark. Looked away, stood up, left.

    I looked after my sister's cats when she was on holiday, both of them deaf and not pleased with the change. Peed on all of my clothes the first day. So I washed everything and locked my stuff into the bathroom. The day they returned, when I saw their car pulling up, I put my handbag on the table, open and unattended, turned away, back around and saw Paul the cat squatting over the open bag, peeing on my wallet. Felt stupid because I screamed at him. Had to pay with smelly money for a week. Well played, cat.

    I grew up with a beautiful black cat, Jada, who was with me for 21 years. As punishment/retaliation, she would stop in front of my trash can in my room. She'd look at me in the eye, lift her paw slowly AND deliberately to the side of the trash can and spill it. She made sure to keep eye contact a few seconds after spilling it to make sure she knew that I knew she did it on purpose. Then she'd walk off like she was the one paying the bills. Lord, I miss her!

    I had a foster dog, beagle, for 4 months. And while whole training went super good, she learned very fast as she was hurricane when she came to me, there was this one time I scolded her so she secretly peed on my pillow and I only could find out in the evening when I was going to sleep. Same thing happened to her owner who adopted her from me after all training. He loves her unconditionally but also years later once went to sleep on wet surprise as that one time she did not agree she deserved scolding. When he told me that, I laughed my ass off while she was sitting besides us all innocent, independent but incredibly loving and smart. What a dog.

    Reminds me of one of our cats. We went away for a couple of days and asked a friend to feed them while we were away. Came back, and everything seemed fine until I walked into our bedroom, and at that exact moment she decided to take a massive dump outside of her tray, all the while maintaining constant eye contact with me.

    My dad pushed a dog of ours away from the front of the fire so he could lie beside it on the floor as he was cold and wet. Not impressed at all Penny our dog turned around lifted her tail and farted in my dad's face in protest. I still miss her. She was a beautiful dog but a real diva.

    Our cat would do that when we'd come back after a weekend at the lakes (we had a friend stop by everyday we were gone). She would walk up close to us, stop and look us in the eye, the throw up and walk away a few steps before eyeballing us once more. She would sometimes try this on the carpet, but my mom would yell at her "not on the carpet!" so she's back up and barf on the lanoleum within an inch of the carpet. I miss her so much

    We had a new cat and for some reason my father didn't like her. One day my father had yelled to her for no reason. When he left home, the cat went right to his pillow and peed there. After that they were even, no yelling anymore and they became good friends.

    40 Of The Most Satisfying Petty Revenge Stories People Shared In This Viral Online Thread I had a roommate who used a lot of spoons (he ate a lot of pudding, soup, ice cream, yogurt, etc) and would never wash his dishes. I was tired of washing his dishes so I let them pile up in the sink until we got to the last spoon. This one I washed and hid in my room each time I used it.

    I had a roommate who had this ancient crockpot. We agreed, I'd do the dishes, except for that dang crockpot. If she used it, she had to wash it. She didn't. I let it sit for 3 months until it grew mold and her mother had to throw it away when we moved out.

    Worked with a guy (he was the VP and a complete misogynist) who would eat soup for lunch from a large mug and then just leave it in the sink for someone else to clean, despite the sign over the sink stating "Neither your wife nor your mother work here. Do your own dishes". We just kept putting it back on his desk. After about a week he asked me about it while I was washing my OWN dishes. I just pointed to the sign and sweetly asked if he was able to read. He turned beet red and the problem was solved. I worked in a different division so I had no fear of reprisals and he wasn't about to complain.

    Went to a restaurant for brunch. Upon receiving my bill I noticed a $3 charge for table linen. As I was leaving I folded up the tablecloth. The waiter said what are you doing? I said, I paid for it I’m taking it home. And I did.

    That one's weird... IRCC, many restaurants in Italy, for example, have something called "tavolino", which is basically to cover the costs of utensils that have to be cleaned, the laundry etc. If you pick a fancy place with extra dressed tables, your tavolino would be bigger than if you picked a place with little to nothing on the table. I'm assuming the OP just was petty and wouldn't say a word if the $3 was hidden within the costs of his food. Being an a-hole just for funsies, I guess, while the restaurant was being a bit more transparent. Those things don't just magically become clean by themselves.

    In Greece we have it too and it's called "couver". Probably French word. However it has to be written on the menu and not to be hidden in the cost of the food. Maybe the guy was angry because it was not written anywhere

    Not sure about this one. Why would they charge you for table linen? If you made a massive mess of it, then I could maybe understand a minor charge, but a table linen is worth more than $3, surely.

    If the table linen isn't on the menu and you weren't warned in advance, this extra charge would be illegal in my country. You have seen the prices when you ordered and expected no additional charges. But it doesn't allow you to steal the table linen.

    The table linen cost is for maintenance. They need to be cleaned by a special cleaning service which can be really expensive.

    My college roommate had a bad habit of leaving her things in piles on our bathroom floor until there was almost no space to walk to the bath or toilet. Not just clothes but change, jewelry, decks of playing cards, knitting needles, books, hairpins, scarves, earbud headphones, keys, etc. One day she left $40 scattered with the mess, so I put the money in one of her lesser-used bathroom drawers. Originally I put it there to protect it from our third roommate and her friends. When I came home the next day and noticed that she was clearing her mess in an effort to find it, I decided not to tell her where the money was until our bathroom floor was spotless. Afterwards, I decided it would be too awkward to tell her the truth so I left the money wadded up in her hamper as I'd found it on the floor. She was ecstatic when she found it on laundry day. After that her bathroom piles never got quite as big.

    I had a roommate in college that would blare their tv in their room and talk loudly on speakerphone well into the night. I was young and too big a pussy to confront them about it. After a semester I had had enough. One time before going out I put my speakers up against our shared wall and blasted Enya’s Only Time on endless repeat. I also locked my door so they couldn’t come in to turn it off. I got back around 3am.

    Husband, pregnant me and toddler lived in new college duplex housing, all cinder block with no insulation between houses. Next door neighbor was a redneck cowboy kid who played really bad honkey tonk music all the time, very loudly and often left with it going. After a few weeks of hoping he would turn it down, hubs set up our record player speakers (this was the early 80's) pointed at the adjoining wall, put on a really horrible bagpipe record at full blast. He left for classes and daughter and I shut ourselves in the back bedroom and played for awhile. Kid never left his music up loud again. Yes, we could have talked to him as we were grown ass adults, but so many of the kids were rich entitled farm/ranch kids so... I still don't know how a single kid was allowed in married housing so he was probably related to some one in the administration.

    I know I will probably get yelled at for this, but this is the only one I don't find funny. As someone who had almost exactly this happen to them (didn't cheat, abusive boyfriend who wanted me to stay with him) I felt like I was so under pressure to be the perfect weight that I actually developed an eating disorder from this. I understand that this might not happen to everyone, but it seems like a pretty shitty thing to do even if someone cheats because eating disorders can last your entire life and be fatal. thanks for coming to my TED talk lmao

    I agree. And gaining weight with no reason (that you know of) to explain it can really freak a person out. They eat less, still gain weight, eat even less and continue to gain weight. And a person with anxiety or something similar could be impacted by this too. This isn't funny, it's terrifying, and can be psychologically and physically damaging.

    Yeah this doesn't sound very good. Most women already have natural hormonal problems once they reach a certain age and secretly slipping them substances like this that contain some type of growth hormone is absolutely horrible. I would even go as far as call it poisoning. I only have thyroid issues and I still read the ingredients of most packed food items I use so make sure they don't affect me. Something like this can lead to health complications and eating disorders. Petty revenge would be messing with their social media or clothing, not their health.

    Honestly, all of the submissions that involve slipping things into food/drinks strike me as very problematic. Of course it's not fair if someone is stealing your lunch or if you're cheated on etc, but putting medication or unexpected ingredients into food that you *know* someone else is going to eat -- even if it's your food and they're stealing it; you still know what the outcome will be... the risk of something terrible happening is just not worth it. People have allergies -- myself included -- and also might have health conditions or be on medications that are incompatible with whatever you've given them. If someone is allergic to peppers, for example, your prank to find out who's been stealing your cookies suddenly turns into a really awful, scary situation where the person could die in under 10 minutes without an EpiPen. Of course it's their own problem for eating food that isn't theirs of which they don't know the ingredients, but I gotta say, I would not want to deal with the drama of having accidentally KILLED my own coworker. I could become a murder suspect! Allergies are actually very common, and drugs like laxatives are not to be messed with for people with underlying conditions. For the sake of everyone involved, including yourself, don't bait anyone with tainted food or drink. Find another way to catch the thief. And as for this submission, this guy sounds like a major jerk who felt entitled to interfere with his girlfriend's body and health because she broke a promise and hurt his feelings. Not funny. Abusive.

    I agree that the boyfriend in this post is abusive, but if someone has a severe allergy or dangerous health conditions that could result in substantial risk or death if they eat something without knowing exactly what's in it, they shouldn't be taking someone else's food to begin with. They're risking their OWN life by taking food prepared by a stranger without asking what's in it, or helping themselves to prepackaged food that's been opened/tampered with & resealed. That's on them for not taking their condition seriously, & it isn't a stranger's responsibility to consider every possible allergy a thief could potentially have if they decide to serve some sweet revenge. Of course, I'm not saying the thief deserve to die for stealing food, but if they have such life-threatening conditions they should know better than to eat random people's food without being able to consult them about what exactly is in it. It's their fault for being stupid in the first place.

    My company has a password policy that locks your account after 3 wrong password attempts. A few times when someone irritates me I'll lock my computer, switch user, and enter their username with a wrong password 3 times so they get locked out. Now they have to deal with help desk to unlock their account.

    When I was in law school I went to a bar with a bunch of law school students and decided I wanted a cig - I went outside and a whole bunch of girls are smoking. I don’t like to bum cigarettes, but I had a free small fry coupon from McDonald’s. I offered it to the girl if she would give me a cigarette, she said okay. I handed it to her, and then she wouldn’t give me a cigarette. She said “You shouldn’t be so trusting.” Flash forward a few months, and I’m the head GA for the IT for a division in our university, which includes administration. I went up to replace a computer and saw the same girl - she was waiting in line for a job interview. I went up to the person who was conducting the interviews (I was their IT person too) and told them the story. She didn’t get the job.

    I did this unintentionally, but it’s still revenge (petty..I don’t know you tell me).. in elementary school I would get pulled into a small room for one on one teaching sessions every week and I would have three/four different teachers.. this day I had the one I hated soooo much (my family didn’t like her either) and I asked her if I can go to the bathroom, “no”.. 10 minutes later I asked again... “no”..4 minutes after asking that time I stood up to tell her i really really really bad to go.. she said “no, s**t down)... guys it was too late I was already going on the carpet. I was crying and her jaw went to the floor! That bitch was still cleaning it when I was walking back from the nurses office. I was in 2nd grade. My grandma (she raised me) never wanted that teacher to teach me ever and she got in trouble for not letting me go to the bathroom.

    The thinking is (supposedly) to teach them to go when they have a chance and (for older students/adults) to keep them from screwing around in the bathroom. In my school experiences, I can't recall ever being flat out refused the right to go, but i do recall being given extra work like writing lines or losing recess time for not going outside of "learning time" The problem is the same as it is in so many other things, some jerk (the teacher here) whos on a power trip and refuses to believe how urgent it is.

    I'm an elementary teacher and I never tell a kid no when they ask to use the bathroom. You never know when it's real or not. However, if a kid starts to abuse it we always end up doing something fun while they're in the bathroom, like a fun short Youtube video, a 'brain break', or I tell the kids a funny story. The kids quickly learn to take fewer/shorter bathroom visits because they don't want to miss the fun stuff.

    I lived in an apartment with a roommate. We had neighbors who would throw crazy parties pretty frequently often times during the week. One day my roommate who had to be awake early had enough and decided to piss on a metal pizza pan and stick it in the freezer. After a crazy party he pulled the pan out, and flipped it upside down giving him a frozen disc of piss, he then slid that disc under their door where it would melt on their fully carpeted entry way. Woke up to them shouting at the people who crashed there about who pissed on the floor what the f**k was wrong with them. Wish I could say they toned down their parties, but they didn't and eventually got evicted.

Our city is big on garage sales. He posted ads like “moving out sale, everything must go, cheap! Will be held inside the house, just walk in or ring the door bell” then put this guys address on the ad. He also signed him up for numerous “free gym memberships” and responded to things like car dealership ads with this guys phone number. He did a lot more, that’s just what I can remember.

    I used to work doing stuco in east Texas. One guy just never paid us, so we spent a day tearing down everything we worked on. Another time, while working for a small machine shop, a customer kept d*cking us around about paying for some work we did. Was all a walk-in job. Paid half up front and would pay the rest at pick up. Well, he needed his part NOW and would pay us the remainder in a month or so. So....... We cut his part in half and said we'll give him the other half in a month or so. Lesson of the story, don't f**k around with contractors.

    I got reviewed at work by a manager I had never met before. I had done everything I was always told to do, and more, but he still marked me low. I know it's because they wanted to avoid giving me a raise, but at least say you don't want to/can't afford to. I'll at least respect your honesty. Anything else, and you can go f**k yourself. Anyway, he told me I didn't go the extra mile. I pointed out that I always do. His response? "Well, I never see you do it". I said "Well, maybe if management didn't always hang out at guest services and went around to the other floors, where I am doing my job, you'd have seen me". That got him to yell at me and mark me poorly for attitude, but idgaf. Later on, he came up to me and asked me if I could stay late. Given that I'd previously told him I didn't have anything else to do the next day, he probably thought I'd say yes. I looked him in the eyes and said "Sorry, but I don't see that you guys need my help."

    Once had a new manager that got annoyed that the entire IT support staff weren't sat at their desks 10 mins before shift start. He demanded that we were all there at the time it stated in our contracts ( our contracts said nothing about being there 10 mins early ) He was asked "so we should work exactly what it says in our contracts and no wiggle room?", "of course, are you stupid" was his response. So we all turned up 10 mins early and left exactly on time. Senior management wanted to know why the out of hours stuff wasn't getting done, and the new manager became an ex-manager. Always best to check what a contract actually says before demanding that you stick to it.

    I use to go to this arcade and play a certain basketball game (as my name indicates). I was climbing the all time wins leaderboard in said game (very close behind number 1)when one day my account vanishes! None of the other accounts do, and i learn that somehow the #1 wins player (who works there) had a hand in it. I waited until he played another game and watched as he put in his code for his initials/account, then waited 30 min when he was done, logged into his account on that machine and tanked a game pretty hard. When i was done his record dropped to 210-1. Unfortunately i did not see his reaction, but i got way too much vengence satisfaction from it.

So whenever we have an unrelated argument, even after we’ve made up, I slightly shift a table lamp askew, or I’ll tilt a picture frame. For years he thought it was the city bus driving over a manhole cover. He even called the city about it. I considered telling him IF the city got involved with rerouting the manhole. They didn’t.

    My BFF hung a little square frame in his bathroom with a picture of the tower of Pisa in it, rotated slightly to be parallel to the tiles. The frame itself hangs at a slight angle the other way so the tower is angled, but I can never rotate the frame in line with the tiles, because then tower's straight and the top floor looks like a sassy angled fez.

    How is college like standard middle & high school periods? None of my colleges had 6-period, single-subject days.

    There was an Anthony in my 2nd grade. Bullied me 'for being short'. I found out at the end of the year that he was freaking shorter than me.

    Not well done. Throwing stuff around, someone could have lost an eye.

    In middle school, this girl Amy used to taunt me constantly. She was in my group of friends and would always put me down and say “GOD” whenever I’d say something. Years of her insulting, acting like she was better and sooo above me and everything I did. Anyway, fast forward to senior year, math class. She’s sitting in front of me and audibly farts. Me, loudly: wow Amy (last name) so disgusting! Laughter ensued, teacher was in tears.

    My brother used to leave butt lint on the toilet seat. Like, there would just be a line of grossness in the spot where your buttcrack is on the toilet seat. I was constantly telling him to wipe it off and he never f**king would. Sooo I started using his toothbrush to clean it up and never told him. It went on for like a year.

    I hated art at school. I enjoyed learning about it but I wasn’t good at it and our teacher didn’t just favour the talented students but she actually punished the bad students. It was ridiculously unjust. So I did my best at some art style and was put in detention because she didn’t like my last three pieces. In detention I had to stay after school and wash stuff. I threw out boxes of acrylic paint to spite her. Later that week, she couldn’t find the acrylic paint for our lesson and freaked the f**k out. I didn’t think she’d have such a severe reaction but then it became clear that she was stressed because she was a completely incompetent teacher and couldn’t figure out a substitute lesson plan. She also thought she had misplaced the paint and it was her fault and began panicking that the head of department would reprimand her in some way. Another teacher came in and gave a substitute lesson plan to her. Petty but pleasurable. Edit: for those wincing at the idea of throwing out acrylic paint- I looked it up, it was poster paint. I was suspicious at the idea of my school spending a lot of money on art supplies! They did not. Second edit, to add a little more context: someone pointed this out in the comments but the teacher disliked me and my art because she felt I was not trying and ignoring her advice. I tried very hard, if only to get her to leave me alone. As an adult I can understand that something that comes so naturally to you, to see someone fail so abysmally so many times, you can get the impression that they don’t care for the activity and won’t try/are disrespecting you by ignoring your advice. Simple as that, I was that bad that she thought I was constantly taking the piss.

    I liked the learning side of art, and also music, but I sucked at music and sucked more at art. I didn't blame the teacher for that, I just switched class.

    I had a childhood bully of mine serve me food at McDonald's. It wasn't like actual revenge, but it was somewhat satisfying seeing a kid who was so cruel to me growing up having to serve me. I don't think he recognized me because I was much skinnier and had a beard now, but I definitely recognized him.

    At least he had a job and was contributing, just because you're paying him to serve you stuff, doesn't make him below you.

    Back in the late 90s I worked at Best Buy and one Saturday a month we had to come in 3 hours before the store opened (so 7am) for a mandatory all store meeting where we watch the video from corporate, give out employee of the month awards, go over department goals, and the like. Well there was a guy in our department James who was a pretty cr*ppy worker and showed up to the meeting an hour late and the manager took him aside and fired him. Well apparently the manager didn't watch him on his way out of the store and he went into the break room and stuck his finger in every single doughnut they brought in for our break so literally the only mild positive of getting up at 6 on Saturday was ruined. 20 years later and I still miss that doughnut.

    My roomate kept on grabbing my peanut butter without asking so I bought a bottle of miralax and made sure all of it went no to the peanut butter. Locked the bathroom door when I left in the morning. He shat on himself shat all over his bed and had to buy a new one.

    Locking the toilet door was a bit over the top you ended up having a very smelly room so you managed to punish yourself.

    I understand the "miralax" in the peanut butter. But locking the bathroom door was just cruel and vicious, not petty.

    I know "petty" isn't congruent with "appropriate". But this is so severely inappropriate, guy should be in jail or infinite debt for paying damages. What the f**k is so hard about keeping the damn peanut-butter in your own room? Or buying him a big-ass glass of (cheap) pb instead to have peace for a year or so? Seriously... I feel worse for the roommate than for the one being robbed. (Of Peanut-butter! Seriously!)

    On the first snowfall one year, a coworker balled up a snowball and threw it right in my face in front of the whole office. Everyone laughed and he refused to apologize. So on the next workday it snowed, I gathered a backpack of snowballs and disguised myself as a snowman in front of our work building, waiting for him to arrive. When he did and tried to open the front door I had locked, I burst from my snowman disguise and pelted him repeatedly with snowballs! My fingers and penis were frozen from waiting as a snowman but it was definitely worth it.

    I wear hearing aids, and a girl in my math class when I was in HS used to make fun of me. I had not said 2 words to her, I gave her no reason to do it, she was just being an evil c*nt. I recording her mocking my hearing loss on my phone and played it for her parents. They took the new car they just bought her back to the dealership.

    At work, I had set my iced tea down on a table. A coworker walks past and starts mildly coughing. He gestured to my drink as if to ask them picked it up and started water-falling it without my OK. He drank a good third of it. So like a week later he was in the cafeteria when I walked in and I saw him open a 16once Red Bull. I casually walked passed and grabbed it from the table before he took his first sip and dumped it in the trash. Then I reveled in my sweet revenge.

    That's not revenge, that's horribly wasteful and downright ridiculous. Yes she shouldn't have taken your drink without really asking, but he needed a drink and at least he didn't return it with backwash. I'd have happily let this slide as would most people

    I think that's a straight up "speak for yourself" comment. I rarely share my drink with my kid or bff let alone would I with co-worker from the same cup regardless if their lips touched it or not. That was "downright ridiculous." I personally wouldn't have thrown it away but I would have returned the favor in gulping their drink down.
