Sometimes, good people are forced to do bad things. In fact, the most creative tormentors I know are the ones who snap last. Perhaps it's because of their desire for justice. Or maybe it's their high self-worth. The point is, everyone has a limit to how much nonsense they can take. Push it too far, and you'll have to meet the consequences. We collected the pettiest forms of revenge we could find on the internet, and it's clear: if the universe is late with karma, create it yourself.

    What A Brilliant Response To An Absurd Directive

    Driveway gate painted with a realistic boat and scenery, a clever example of petty revenge art to surprise neighbors.

    My neighbor has a seafaring vessel, which he parks on the side of his home. A few weeks ago, he received a letter from the city stating he needed to build a new fence to hide said vessel from view of the street. After reluctantly building the fence and driveway, he presented a sassy idea to me that would require my artistic skills.

    Putting the cat behind a door always backfires on you. One night my cats were being obnoxious while I was trying to sleep so I shut them out of my bedroom. They proceeded to make even MORE noise by throwing themselves at the door and meowing to be let back in. 😂 I can't win.

    To a sibling this would be fun, as a parent this is Fuckedd up. My dad purposely picked a fight with me and made me almost crash the first time behind the wheel of a car, while going down the highway at 50mph because he wanted to get back at me for talking in the car as a young child with my 5 siblings. Scared the heII out of me, and I never drove with him again. Two years later with proper training from a real driving instructor i was driving 45 passenger tourism coaches, just to spite him.

    I have had lots of upstairs neighbors who I swear paid a hefty pet deposit on their hefty herd of elephants. One upstairs neighbor was a young woman no bigger than a minute who had to have tied cement blocks to the soles of her shoes once she got home every day. Did not hear her go up or down the stairs to her apartment, so she was capable of walking softly, ffs. But once she was home, she was stomping as hard as she could. I half expected to see her foot—-with the cement lifts strapped to it—- bust through my ceiling every day.

    Does your vacuum have hoses and extension ? If so they should reach the ceiling. with you standing on the ground. If not use and old phone record you vacuuming, and tape to broom handle to move around.

    Can't see how this is a win - you have to get up at 3 am to do this, your hearing the noise more than they are, and holding a vacuum up to the ceiling is pretty tiresome. Better in theory than reality.

    My neighbor used to get drunk and make tons of noise after midnight so after several times over a month asking her kindly during the day to please stop the antics at night - I decided alternate tactics must take over a over in the morning when I knew she was sleeping it off i started playing the same Goo Goo Dolls cd over and banging on the ceiling with the broom handle. It took a week of doing it every morning for 2-3hrs but sh finally got the message and stopped her c**p behavior.

Don't freaking invite your girlfriend to go somewhere with you and then ignore her. If my boyfriend, who is not a gamer, thank God, ever flat out ignored me anywhere, let alone at an event he wanted me to come to, there'd be problems.
