'She called me ugly, so my friend painted a mural of me across her bedroom window' : Man gets ironic petty revenge on cheating ex girlfriend

OP didn't react and decided simply to move on with his life. Basically, he was the bigger person. We've got to hand it to his frien…

Why are we so quick to dismiss it? The reason is actually pretty simple. You can't run the stupid thing without an internet connec…
