Not me, but I helped my daughter take down her non-paying boss. She worked as a lead server, didn’t get paid in November, and the boss kept stalling. When January rolled around, the company supposedly closed and he promised to pay her but vanished. We got the labor department involved, and boom – boss hit with a judgment for $18,000+. His wages will be garnished to cover it, and my daughter’s college is paid for. Moral of the story? Pay your bills.
Worked as a cart wrangler once. Lady abandoned her cart right next to her car, so I parked my entire cart fleet behind her car, trapping her in. She honked once, so I made her wait just a little longer. Justice served, one cart at a time.
Had a co-worker who loved to interrupt presentations with “I just want to say…” nonsense. So we started telling everyone to save questions for Q&A at the end. Every time she interrupted, people just gave her the gentle ‘hold your horses’ reminder. Months later, her review called her out on it. Drama: served cold and satisfying.
Had a history teacher dropping racist and sexist comments in class. So the student recorded him over a few days, sent the clips to the department head and dean, and bam — teacher fired. Sweet justice!
Was casually dating a guy who was also seeing his fiancée. She called me (pre-cell phone days!), ready to dump him. We set a date, she showed up, I walked away, and she just dumped a drink on him and left. We’re still friends. The guy? No idea what happened.
In ninth grade, students pranked me big time. I bowed to their genius and played along — acting like I was coming to get them for years. For four years, they were on edge every time I walked in. At graduation, I told them the best prank was making them look over their shoulders for years. They agreed. Legendary.
Sent an anonymous glitter bomb to an art teacher who mocked my anxiety and surgery absence. She hates glitter, so she got covered head to toe. Perfect petty revenge.
I was a tiny 12-year-old swim team member, and this pudgy older boy kept getting too close and talking right in my ear. I couldn’t push him away, so I delayed pushing off the wall just right to kick him where it counts. He finally stayed away after that. Sweet justice from the pool.
Got pushed out for layoffs, but the company hired a newbie and made me train him. I took medical leave and was let go, but I never trained the guy. Now the whole department’s a mess, and I’m sitting pretty. Petty but kind of satisfying, right?
I got better while they stayed exactly the same. No complicated plots, just straight-up glow-up. Feels good.
My immigrant mom’s boss yelled at her in front of the whole office until she cried. I reported him to corporate, gave all the info, and he got canned. Instant karma, baby.
As a foreman, I handed lazy folks tougher jobs. Because hey, work hard or work harder, right?
A mean sixth-grade teacher was trying to break me, but later I found out he was auditioning for a paid show. I told him I got cast instead. Surprise! He didn’t make the cut. Sweetest ‘nope’ ever.
Had a rude woman tell me, “Let me talk to someone who knows what they’re talking about.” I said “hold on,” went to get coffee and chat, came back 10 minutes later and said, “I’m back. I know what I’m talking about, but you won’t listen. Have a great day.” Then hung up.
Neighbor was a total Karen about my knives and swords and called code enforcement a bunch. She went away for vacay and I planted tons of bamboo and crazy vines all over her perfect lawn. She came home to a wild jungle and hated it. Took her months to fix the mess. Karma’s a gardener!
Old employer made my last year awful. I knew they were making a website soon, so I grabbed their best URL and sat on it for 10 years just to mess with them.
Worked with an advisor who was great at business but a horrible person. Years later, a client asked my opinion about him for a fancy club invite. I gave it honestly. He didn’t get in. Heard he was mad. Priceless.
When I was 15, my boyfriend started ignoring me for a new girl. So I called a radio station, told them the story, and asked for “Creep” by Radiohead to play. It aired live. He was not happy. I was.
In middle school, a girl straight-up copied my charcoal artwork — even the quote in the middle. I never submitted a copy, so it was just between her and the teacher. She never owned up, but during pottery, her glaze turned into the ugliest brown and she had to redo her whole piece. Boom.
Used their email address to sign them up for tons of junk email subscriptions. Their inbox exploded. Revenge in digital form!
Decided to resign instead of breaking the law. As an exec, I knew the company paid people for resignation notice time if they wanted them out. So I handed in a 90-day notice and got paid for three months off. Best ‘out’ plan ever!
Neighbor’s alarm would go off nonstop for an hour while they were gone. I called the police pretending to check for wellness since she wasn’t answering the door. Fire department busted in the front door. Perfect petty revenge.
Before a Hawaii trip, the ex-girlfriend sent my BF a card full of lovey messages. He ripped it up and tossed it, but I fished it out, taped it back together, and mailed it (with the envelope) to her live-in boyfriend. Total chaos on vacation.
Hid a fish in the overhead ceiling in his office. The smell was epic and the mystery lasted until someone figured it out.
Sprayed diluted poison ivy water (made by soaking poison ivy) in cheating ex’s underwear drawer. She thought she caught an STD and freaked out, blaming the guy she was cheating with. Perfect petty revenge.
Bought a dummy security camera with a blinking light powered by a AA battery. Neighbor thought I was spying and piled pillows on his windows for 2 years. Got 2 years of laughs for 10 bucks.
Sprayed a mix of hairspray and glitter inside their car. Glitter is impossible to clean, so it’s a sparkling little nightmare every time they get inside.
A friend dumped a pound of glitter on her boyfriend's head after he cheated on her. He hated her for it, but honestly? Worth it.
Changed one Netflix profile to “mooch.” Got the best 2am phone call when they saw it. That’s how you send a message.
Shared their phone number everywhere I could think of, making sure they got as annoyed as they made me. Sweet, slow revenge.
Went to a birthday luncheon with epic food. Asked the host for the lobster corn pudding recipe, and she just said “No.” Years later, she asked for my baked pasta recipe via Facebook. I told her I’d trade, then she vanished. Karma is tasty.
A kid bullied me and filmed me in the girls' bathroom in second grade. Years later, I found his email and signed him up for nonstop Church of Scientology emails. To this day, he can't escape their messages.
Ex cheated, so I swapped their club card for one of my own. Ten years later, I’m still enjoying the rewards.
Manager said up to 10% stock discrepancy was allowed. I smashed my sales target but was denied the bonus. So I made sure stock discrepancy hit 9% during the count and pocketed my double bonus. Smooth move!
Put a plastic bag of ground raw meat under a tiny gap in his dresser where the floor meets, let it rot in 110-degree weather for months. The stink was unforgettable.
I write songs about people and play them where they know they'll hear. I sneak in juicy lines only they understand, making it obvious. Especially fun when everyone else harmonizes.
I was wrongly accused of stealing by a junior high teacher and bullied because of it. After six years, I gathered proof of everything wrong with his career and sent it to the administration, which destroyed his career. Sweet downfall.
Catfished my ex to prove he lied about being on dating apps. Of course, he flipped it and acted like I hurt him by making that person. They talked for three days, and he says I’m the one who caused pain. Classic.
Girl cheated on me, so I [you know what] with the guy she cheated with. Don’t mess with bisexuals.
Disappearing without a word. No drama, no messages, no anger. Don’t take calls, don’t block—just vanish. They’ll figure it out themselves.
Froze my pee in a bag and convinced mean kids that these were apple juice slushies, all because they kept throwing rocks at my dog. I was 12 but knew the power of gross revenge.
In sixth grade, a bully and his buddies beat me up in gym. One day before math, he tried to punch me. I caught his fist, twisted his arm, and he cried like a baby. He never messed with me again. Victory.
In college, a girl spread lies about me all over campus. I found a dead bird and left it splayed out on her pillow. Lies stopped immediately. Works every time.
Worked construction for a crummy company, left to start my own residential concrete biz. Hired 6 of the 8 guys from that company. They filed bankruptcy, and the ex-foreman asked me for a job. Declined. Feels good.
I got kicked out of my first band, so I went on to start two new bands with my friends that were way cooler and way more successful. Take that, booters!
A friend sent inappropriate messages from my computer. I got revenge by putting his car on blocks in the office parking lot. Classic payback.
My area manager treated everyone like garbage. I worked hard to expose her bad behavior to management. After months of drama, she had a meltdown and was fired. Felt amazing watching her leave crying.
Worked with a terrible agent in China who underreported my taxes. Before I left, I gave evidence to the tax office. They’re now in big trouble. Sweet payback.
Went grocery shopping with salmon. Some guy gave me the finger, so I threw the salmon at him while stopped at a red light. Best day ever.
Bought a new house; basement flooded with sewage within 10 days. Realtor wouldn’t help. So I planted bushes in her yard, dug them up, moved them, cost me $1,000. Sued and won $3,000 total. Sweet.
My ex said their new girlfriend was stuck in traffic for an hour every visit. I knew a shortcut to save 45 minutes but only said, “Aww, that sucks.” Savage silence!
A guy who ‘kicked’ me daily in 6th grade told me he loved me in 9th. I said I only thought of him as a friend. Felt amazing to say no.
Gifted a Kudzu plant to an ex-friend. The plant that takes over everything — a parting gift with attitude.
My college boyfriend got engaged to someone else while we were dating. I sent him brownies laced with ex-lax, mailed as if from his fiancée. Heard he ate them and paid the price.
Tried to teach a co-worker vital skills, but they refused, saying scripts would be enough. When disaster struck, they admitted ignorance during a big call. Leadership weren’t happy. I washed my hands but enjoyed the show.
Co-worker was drinking my Faygo Ohana lemonade, so I peed in it. She freaked out and blamed her cheating partner. Petty and proud.
Ex cheated on me. I deleted all his gaming accounts, destroyed his PC, and burned his favorite pants. Consider it a farewell gift.
Rude guy was a pain, so I found his address, made a Grindr account with it, and told every gay guy I knew to show up. He ended up moving. Mission accomplished.
Spat the biggest piece of snot into my flatmate’s dinner as it was cooking. Yeah, I’m petty and proud.
Drained his transmission fluid. It was a Nissan, so failure was expected anyway. Guess who sped up the process?
A friend had a feud with a guy, so he shoved a big red potato two feet into the guy’s car tailpipe. Car wouldn’t start, even the mechanics gave up. Friend bought the car cheap, removed the potato, and drove away. Other guy? Not happy.
