    They must have slept with your wife for that sort of back lash

    I was working overseas and this person wanted to move to that city as her brother lived there. She was hoping to get a job in the company I worked for at the time as a job was necessary for visa purposes. Told the person that was interviewing them that they knew me. Unbeknownst to the person, the interviewer was a good friend of mine who I was meeting for lunch the next day.

    Interviewer says to me (and I paraphrase) "do you know such and such? I was interviewing her yesterday and she name dropped you".

    Let's just say that person never did get to move overseas. I do not feel bad at all.

    But did the interviewee know you?

    She did a few d1ck things, started bad mouthing me around the office. Never intended to get any revenge as had moved on, but when the opportunity presented itself, who was I to resist?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,200 ✭✭✭Arbiter of Good Taste

    Yes. It made no sense whatsoever that she thought she could use me as a reference. She was obviously a little bit stupid really.

    Honestly? The point where I truly stopped giving a damn about them. For me morons are kinda like cracks in the path, in the landscape, to be avoided, largely going unnoticed unless you happen to trip over one by mistake when your head is on other things and then you feel foolish for doing so.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    I've never gotten revenge on anyone because it just wouldn't occur to me. With one exception.

    I was terribly hurt once and considered what it would be like to let them know how it would feel to have their lives destroyed. In the end I realised that they weren't worth my energy. That they weren't even worth revenge. They were simply worthless.

    Is it possible to get revenge on someone who *hasn't* done something bad to you? Would it still be revenge?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,920 ✭✭✭TG1


    Years ago in college I fell out with a friend over a boy. Months later while the friend and the boy were still technically going out I may have been involved in encouraging a drunken get together between another friend and said boy.

    They went on to get married and have babies though so obviously I was helping true love blossom not being a spiteful cow......

    I like the phrase "The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference". Hating them is still giving a sh-t about them (but granted, not always easy to let go of - depends on the severity I guess).

    Nothing. I dont have it in me. Theres only been one or two people in my life who have pissed me of beyond belief, made me the angriest ive ever been/can ever get, but I still let it slide.

    Letting things slide takes a bit of effort though, il let myself be angry about something, have a rant and then start to forget about it.

    When I was about 9 my dad was a fiend for putting salt in our tea if we turned away from it. So one day I saved a big lump of translucent fatty gristle that I found in a pie and dropped it in his tea where it luckily sunk to the bottom. He drank nearly the whole mug before noticing what looked like a huge slug clinging to the bottom. He roared in fright and was nearly sick. I was the family hero for ages after. :D

    Years ago someone I thought to be my nearest and dearest friend mistakenly sent a text about me to me. At the time I was totally heartbroken but I picked myself up, got on with my life and moved on.

    I sometimes see her working in the same dead end job, single and living alone.

    I'm happily married with a great job and a great bunch of friends.

    Revenge is a dish best served cold!

    Me and Marcellus got caught in a basement by 3 guys, one with a gimp ball in his mouth. We escaped, I stole Zeds motorbike and Marcellus got his boys to work them over with a pliers and a blowtorch.

    My now fiance offered to make me a cup of tea. I take my tea strong n' black. I thought "oh how lovely" and took a big gulp only to realise he had put sugar in it, bleh, spat it out everywhere. He thought it was hilarious. Then when he left the room I poured vodka in his cereal, making sure I pooled it directly on the spoon in the bowl of milk. He nearly puked :D

    In fairness it wasn't a balanced revenge because he actually LIKES vodka and I fkn hate sweet tea.

    If he knowingly left his food unattended directly after playing a food related prank on you he deserved everything he got for being stupid!

    Used have this roommate who would throw all my clothes that were hanging on the line out in the back on the grass when he wanted to use it, clothes were getting destroyed! Anyways he was the only one who drank low fat milk in the house so I started collected dead flies by the window and crushed them up really finely and would put it in his milk and well he used do other stuff to piss me off like eat my food etc. ....

    After some pr!ck never sent me something I paid for on Ebay and prolonged email contact while making excuses just until the time for making complaints had elapsed, I used his email address to sign him up for daily email updates from a range of disturbing porn sites.

    Someone once pissed into something I owned, so on the night of a gig they were playing I pissed into their keyboard. Keyboard stopped working two songs in (it was playing their backing track while live) so I was happy enough that night.

    There's a few people on my **** list. I wouldn't go actively looking for revenge but if the opportunity arose, I'd take it.

    There was a guy I was friends with during university. Thought he was a good mate but it turned out he was a right ****. Backstabbing, trying to hook up with girls I was dating etc. I cut him out of my life and moved on. I didn't have anything more to do with but I did hear that he married a girl that we'd been friends with at uni. I ran into her 15 years after we'd graduated, slept with her, had an affair, she left him, job done.

    When I was a kid, I was head boy. I was going out with this beautiful girl in my class. One day, someone put tipp-ex on the teacher's seat. My vice-head said it was me and I was sent to detention. The principal wasn't there though and I had to wait for him to return. I missed lunch and had nothing to eat for a good 5 hours.
    Eventually, when I has given up all hope and thought I would starve to death, the principal came back and told me to get out.
    When I arrived back to class, my former vice head had stolen my girl and my favourite teddy.
    I swore vengeance and, in the ensuing minutes, became fabulously wealthy and use my wealth to turn everyone against him starting with the teddy and ending with his girl before killing him to death.
    When the bell rang, I went home and had dinner and reflected on how revenge had not made me happier but, conversely, its pursuit had made me a bitter and twisted child.

    I won't namedrop or incriminate the guilty here, but a few years ago I took a couple of members of the band that has been nominated the most times for the Rock'N'Roll Hall Of Fame without actually being inducted to the airport in Belfast. Was already paid for the run so didn't bother me, but they gave me a tenner sterling 'tip' and asked for half back so they could buy breakfast at the airport!

    So I gave them five EURO back!

    How I laughed to myself going back down over Glenshane.

    My adorable,but mischievous 5 little niece once destroyed the mixer sitting snugly between my Technics 1210s,so I shot my mother in law with a crossbow,went right through her like a hot knife through butter.

    When I worked in a school I had a boss/principal who bullied me horribly for a year. I knew he was dodgy because his wife was 26 and they had an 11 year old son. He was 40. So we often joked that she must have been his pupil. He has an unusual name, so one day I googled him and Lo and behold it was true. She had run away with him at 15 after getting pregnant, and arrest warrants were out all over Europe for him at the time as they went from the uk through France to Germany. It was huge in the tabloids at the time.

    I waited until I finished my contract, then I told my colleagues what I had found. I was tempted to also tell the school board as he still had access to teenage girls, but since he was married to the girl mentioned above and has two kids with her now, I was convinced not to for their sake.

    I also sent him an email with links to the tabloid articles telling him exactly what I thought of him.

    It was a bit evil but no more than he deserved.

    There was this lad being a complete drunken arsehole in a nightclub one time. Being aggressive, squaring up, spilling drinks etc. Bouncers kicked him out. Anyway, I and two friends later found him having a wee sleep on a street, so we pissed on him.

    If you are implying that it was taken...illegally, this thread is taking a marked turn for the worse...theft, smashing up cars over texts etc.

    Young fellow in a pub accidentally spilled my pint so I stabbed him in the eye with a screwdriver hur hur.

    So you left with money that you were entitled to?

    But...that isn't actually revenge at all! "I went to the bosses office and got my wages...revenge is mine". Naaaaaaaaaaaaa!
