Petty Revenge

    So my roommate can be an absolute dick at times. He also has a bunch of annoying habits. One of them is leaving the door unlocked, even when he's the last one leaving the flat.

    So today I arrived in to the unlocked door, and locked it behind me as I always do. I was cooking dinner when I heard loud banging on the door. My roommate hadn't brought his keys out with him :D

    So I stuck on my headphones and listened to music for about thirty minutes before I went out and unlocked the door for him :D

    I was very satisfied with myself


    Can anyone beat my epic tale of revenge?

    As far as he's aware I had my headphones on and didn't hear him banging on the door in the first place

    My housemate has the same bloody habit I don't understand it at all. One night out I happened to get lucky and came home a little earlier than usual and locked the door after we got in the house as anyone would do that late at night.

    After about an hour my housemate arrives home keyless with a few friends of his and starts banging on the door. I do nothing about it and concentrate on the job at hand in my room as you do. Eventually the banging on the door stops.

    Later on I wake to the sound of my housemate and his friends making awful drunken racket downstairs so I get up and suss it out. He's in an awful mood over being outside around the place for hours. He asked me did I not hear them knocking on the door and I just said I did but the girl upstairs wouldn't let me leave the room. He was stunned!!

    Have you ever tried talking to him about it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,745 ✭✭✭Macavity.


    You should take all of his stuff and hide it somewhere, mess the place up a bit and pretend you've been burgled because he left the door open. Do it, OP.

    Once in a shop I was behind Betty, and Jacinata was at the till.

    Betty paid for her lotto and fags and Jacinta and Betty went on to have a 5 minute chat about Deano, leaving me standing behind Betty with my (proverbial) penis in hand, a non-entity, an invisible man, it was my social life all over again, this was intolerable injustice.

    When they had finished talking about their tracksuits it was finally my golden opportunity to be spared 5 seconds by the wonderful Jacinta to complete my transaction.

    'Next there please' came the order.

    I approached the till,

    'Now' said Jacinta, finally awaiting my order.

    At this point I reached into my pocket and took out my phone, I then spent the next minute poorly pretending to talk to someone while I stood at the till as Jacinta stood with her hand out awaiting my cash, gormless and expectant.

    I ended my sociopathic mock phone-call after a minute or two and completed my transaction and left feeling vindicated if somewhat pathetic.

    But the important thing is that another epic victory was achieved, even if it was in the lower leagues of needless pettiness.

    I like to think Ive set a important precedent that the situation should not re-occur. I compare it to the fight against apartheid in south Africa, a moral stand.

    My mother broke her leg quite badly a few years back and as a result she had to use a wheelchair.
    One day I took her out shopping and she started annoying me. We were in Penneys at the time, so I wheeled her to the men's section, parked her in front of the y fronts and put the brakes on the chair. I went off to Partners for a coffee and left her there. Took my time drinking it too, before I went back and wheeled her to the car.
    She didn't talk to me for about a week but it was so worth it. She looked like such a pervert! And she's far better behaved on our days out now.

    When I was sixteen, a fella in my class wouldn't serve me at the local disco because he knew I was underage.

    Last year I came upon him changing a flat wheel on a cold wet wintry November's night, AND I DROVE ON PAST!!!!!

    paint all the lightbulbs black, so that when he turns on the lights, it'll get darker!

    Thats the pettiness equivalent of a mossad/mafia/Ira long-term hit.
