‘He made an idiot of himself’: Mooching boyfriend tries to take revenge on girlfriend's roommates via social media, girls band together and kick him out

It's 100% normal to date the wrong person many times in your life. That's how dating works. You start to see someone you like, until you realize you actually don't click at all. Eventually, you find someone you click with and all the ups and downs of the relationship are worth it. That's when you are able to look back at past heartbreaks and wonder, “What in tarnation was I thinking??” Hindsight is 20/20, after all.

'I still giggle about it years later': Entitled boss makes his kid's photo the centerpiece of the office, employee hilariously photoshops it and never gets caught

Revenge is a dish best served petty. To pull a silly harmless little prank that makes everyone laugh AND serves as a cute little karma kick to an entitled target is a double whammy in our books. This person really hit a homerun with this petty revenge prank—and never got caught! This employee had an incompetent and entitled nepo-baby boss. It's unfortunate but it happens often in our capitalistic society. There's little you can do aside from quit and try and find a decent place of employment. B…

‘We got a 2nd refund’: Third-party booking service and hotel screw guy out of $600 and makes his party sleep in the basement, ends up getting double the refund

Sometimes something very very annoying has to happen to you so you can get rewarded with something very very awesome. For instance, when a huge multi-billion company finagles hundreds of extra dollars out of your hardworking hands, but then due to them being entitled and impolite, you end up getting thousands of dollars in return. It's called karma and it tastes so so sweet. Take for instance, this commenter on a Reddit post about a guy trying to get a Priceline refund. The post was about a guy…

‘College-Educated Tightwad’ Neighbor Tries to Outsmart His Way for Paying His Half of Shared Fence, Hoodwinks Himself Into a Higher Cost of Living

If you're going to poke the bear, expect the claws—or whatever that saying is. Basically, if you are going to try and pull something shady off, you should always be prepared for it to backfire.

Apparently, this guy was renting a house that shared a fence with its neighboring house. Unbeknownst to the landlord, this guy was notoriously n…

Have you ever seen the classic Julia Roberts film Pretty Woman ? Remember the scene where she walks into a fancy retail shop and the women refuse to serve her because they thought she looked too poor, but then got hooked up by Richard Gere's character? Then she went back to that store and told them they made a big “HUGE" mistake. Well, that is what happened here but in real life and with an entitled realtor instead of retail workers.

'[She] would roll over in her grave': Wicked stepmother who forces husband to cut ties with his children gets a taste of karma beyond the grave

It's a horrible thing when you find out someone who got divorced also emotionally divorces their children. Once you have committed to being a parent, you are committed for life, there is no backing out. And yet, there are still parents who think they can just leave their kids in the dust and “start over.” That's not how life works, buddy. However, as humans we strive for peace and forgiveness is a start. For example , this child who was cast aside due to her wicked stepmother learned to forgive…

As someone who has worked many years in the service industry let me tell you, when an unruly customer gets what's coming to them, it is the most satisfying feeling in the world.

‘Sorry, you told me to leave you alone’: Kid makes a quick $147 in cash by teaching entitled adult a lesson in instant karma after trying to do the right thing and getting met with unkindness

We should really listen to our youth, because sometimes adults learn helpful life lessons from children. For example, an entitled adult who thinks it's okay to treat kids with zero kindness because they're older and “more mature” has a very harsh lesson to learn. You can't be a grown person and act like it's okay to treat everyone around you like you're better than them. Come on, we live in a society, man. Grow up. This story comes from a '90s kid. This millennial was doing what young kids did…
