Unfortunately, she discovered that he had an entirely separate relationship with another girlfriend, who was staying at his second apartment in Hong Kong. It must be fairly easy to cheat and hide the truth when your job is to travel all over the world. Thankfully, this lady was not going to go without a fight. Before leav…

The niece, who was driving to pick up the aunt and other family members, found herself waiting over an hour for their arrival.

'I purposely picked all the wrong answers': Student sabotages cheater by feeding him incorrect answers, switches to correct ones when he's not looking

Most high-achieving students have had to deal with slackers in the class. They might ask for your input on a writing assignment, only to try to get you to write the entire essay for them. They might mooch off of your study guide. They might contribute next to nothing on a group project and attempt to take all the credit. And of course, they might look over your shoulder during a class test. Here, we have a student who understandably had enough of the slacker who sat next to him in class and rep…

'One day, I had enough of it...[I] typed four simple words': 20+ Petty people share their funniest moments of payback

Don't just get petty— get creative. Try to become so petty it strikes fear (or laughter) into the hearts of those around you. Become formidable and unchallenged by societal norms! Communication comes easily for some people, but for others it can be intimidating. Instead of asking for what they want, they'd rather use passive-aggressive behavior to get what they desire. In some cases, it's the safer option: you never know how a stranger might react to you asking them to switch seats with you on…

'Please send messages for me directly to me': Employee gets back at petty coworker by only pointing out his errors in the team's group chat

Group chat decorum can be a source of plenty of tension among teams in the workplace. Sometimes, people spam channels with far too many messages that end up only affecting one or two individuals. No one needs to be getting all those notifications. Then, there are folks who choose to take the opportunity to criticize someone else's work as an “example” rather than privately messaging them. Nine times out of ten, this is not actually about giving the whole team a worthwhile lesson. Instead, it's…

'I reported him for HOA violations I don't actually care about': Guy gets back at petty neighbor by overwhelming him with HOA fines until he moves

Best friend paints woman's entire apartment pink, woman gets payback by enlarging her friend's head in all her photos: 'She looks like a bobble head in every one'

Best friend paints woman's entire apartment pink, woman gets payback by enlarging her friend's head in all her photos: 'She looks like a bobble head in every one'

Who else thinks the pink apartment is way worse? Clearly, these “besties” are not exactly the friendliest to one another because these pranks are far from innocent. This Redditor detests the color pink, so when she was away for the weekend, her BFF sought an opportunity and painted her room pink, along with replacing furniture and decor with pink-colored items. This isn't exactly the kind of prank that can be easily reversed. As a New Yorker, my immediate first thought was how is she going to g…

'Oh, were you behind me that whole time?': Grocery store shopper gets revenge on entitled Karen for taking wrong parking spot

This Karen parked in a spot that was clearly designated for wheelchair users and did not have a placard. She was not a wheelchair user herself but felt that her proximity to the entrance of the local grocery store was more important than someone who actually deserved the right to that spot. When another shopper noticed her little bending of the rules, they decided it was worth an extra 20 minutes to ensure that her shopping experience was a nightmare. The Redditor then embarked on a mission to…

‘Hope you like the fine you get’: Entitled neighbors demand resident put their trash back in yard after he clears it out as a favor, resident complies, then reports them to the HOA

The people who refuse to deal with their own problems, and resort to calling the authorities whenever something mildly inconvenient happens to them, are the people you should stay as far away from as you possibly can. But, if you cannot stay away from these people, for example, if they are your neighbors, then you might want to consider giving them a taste of their own medicine. Say your neighbors decided to call the cops on you because you wanted to help them out by clearing some trash out of…

‘I don't care about your rules’: Karen gets banned from charity shop after she dumps her trash at their doorstep and screams at manager after they refuse to accept it as donations

When doing something that is considered good for other people, it is often not just about the act itself, but about the intentions behind it. If all you care about is what you gain out of your good deed, then is it really a good deed at all? Yet, does it have to be pure of any selfish intention for it to have a positive effect on someone else? When someone decides to donate some of their clothes to charity, their intentions are usually a mix of selfish and selfless. They seek a way to get rid o…

‘She had it coming’: Mother plays favorites between two daughters during their birthdays, leading eldest to even the score by playing favorites between her parents

Every person who grew up with siblings knows that parents always have favorites. They can deny it as much as they want, and try to hide it so the kids would not be able to tell, but unfortunately, kids are always able to tell. However, there is a big difference between parents having a favorite child and parents playing favorites between the children. It is somewhat understandable that parents care for one kid more than the other, but it is absolutely not understandable when they act on it clea…
