Alright, so here's the deal. Our OP (aka the dad) did in fact change their family vacation plans the night before departure, leaving his daughter, son-in-law, and grandkids hanging. But tbh, he might be valid in this case. Our OP and his wife have been dreaming about a romantic getaway to celebrate their love for the 40th anniversary for a while. It might be the only trip they can manage for a while due to the costs. But when their daughter caught wind of it...

If you've ever strolled into a bank, queued up at a teller's window, and politely asked to withdraw some cash, you probably know the drill. You obviously need to show your ID because, I mean, anyone could just waltz in and pretend to be you and then snag money right out of your account. It's just common sense.

Most animal lovers would agree that any human who mistreats or abandons a pet doesn't deserve to get another one just because they feel like it, but what would your conscience say if you had the power to stop that villain from adopting more pets? Would you let them go home with the 'kitten of the week'? Or would you stop them in their tracks?

If you've been around the airport block a few times, you know we've all had our fair share of airport drama. It could be your bag playing a game of "almost too heavy," a little extra TLC from TSA during security checks, or navigating those airports that need a freakin' tram to get from one end to the other. And let's not even start on the nightmare of flight delays – we've all been there. But the real wildcard at the airport is the mix of folks you'll encounter on any given day. I'm talking abo…

There are subtle ways to get back at your cheating ex who owes you money, and then there's this . This Redditor took things up several notches by filming a five-minute video in which she and her friends told off her ex-boyfriend who had recently reached back out after breaking things off three years ago. For some context, the two had been living together for several years and he owed her $600 when he decided to leave her for someone else. It turns out that the other relationship ended up not wo…

Ah, the joys of suburban shenanigans. So this story takes place back in the 2000s when a young couple built their first home in a fancy new neighborhood. They're the newcomers, but things are all friendly at first. They even make friends with their older neighbors, Gary and his wife, until things started to get a lil spicy. The young couple, who we'll call Joe and Sarah, start doing well financially thanks to Joe's job as a land developer. They have a new house, new cars, and even a fancy wakeb…

Usually good Samaritan behavior is something people don't expect reimbursement for, but apparently for one woman, her mother-in-law expected to be paid in full for her good deeds.

It's refreshing to read that for once, the folks at a car dealership were those ones who had to pay up. We come across too many stories on the Internet of folks getting cheated and tricked and having to pay the price, but this Redditor cleverly circumnavigated the system in order to get what they deserved. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/Ko-Riel , who explained that they purchased a car with three years of maintenance included. When it came time for the c…

Some folks become teachers because they want to educate the next generation; others just want to be in a position of authority. Let's be honest: we all have had teachers like this, and while we respect how difficult the job is, we can also recognize that these bad apples should never have chosen this profession if they despised working with children so much. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/JumoreJay88 , who shared a story from approximately 15 years ago when she…

This young person took lemons and made some pretty good lemonade with them when one of his elderly neighbors decided to spread untrue rumors about him, causing neighborly conflict that almost led to him being removed from the building. So, what exactly went down is this: The OP, u/Zenmedic, was being bugged constantly by his upstairs neighbor, Linda, who accused him of various wrongdoings for over one decade while he lived there. Throughout those twelve years, OP went from being a University st…

There is nothing like the vicarious satisfaction that comes with hearing about someone getting well-deserved payback. It doesn't matter if you don't know any of the people in the story. In fact, we all love drama in which we have zero involvement because then, the stakes are low for us and the enjoyment has no personal consequences. These stories, which were compiled from the top posts on Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit this past week, range in settings and environments from schools to office…

Have you ever had a nasty breakup where your ex tried to take something that was rightfully yours? Maybe it was a car, a TV, or even a pet. Well, one Reddit user had to deal with a cat-napping ex who thought he could hold their beloved kitty hostage, but she wasn’t going to let him get away with it. The story involves a toxic relationship, a fake death, a tattoo that went too far, and an orange cat named Tigger (also referred to as Dinglebumb). It’s a story of deception, drama, and determinatio…

Years ago, a newlywed couple moved into a small one-bedroom apartment. Unbeknownst to them, their quiet existence was about to be disrupted by an elderly neighbor on the other side of their only shared wall. Complaints about excessive noise started pouring in, despite the couple's peaceful lifestyle. They contacted the apartment management, who dismissed the complaints as misunderstandings. The situation escalated when the police showed up multiple times in response to noise complaints , even c…

Apparently, this company didn't know how much power their system administrator had before they started playing mind games. No matter how professionally you act, you just won't get along with every single person in your workplace. It's not an issue if you just have an ongoing random feud with your coworker in another branch of the company because he keeps stealing your parking spot, for example. But it becomes a little trickier to navigate when you and your boss don't get along. Especially in th…

Don't bite the hand that feeds you. For folks who work late night shifts, it's more important to remember the mantra, 'don't bite the hand that caffeinates you!' When you have a good rapport with your local barista, good things can happen. When you make an enemy out of your coffee server… You're gonna have a bad time.

Everyone hates when they're trying to finagle a tight spot in a parking lot and their path is blocked by a wayward shopping cart. Is it really so challenging for shoppers to return their carts to the designated areas? Or is walking an extra 20 feet too challenging? Apparently so.
