    You might want to watch the old murder confessions there. The gardai mightn't be Scotland yard, but slip-ups like 100% admittance could get you in the end.

    If it isnt for those pesky after hours kids, you may still get away with it.

    I can't swim

    You should try a skiing holiday with your friends next time.

    And don't get into the jacuzzi.

    Not helping someone in cardiac arrest. Don't think I'll be done for murder. And the worlds a better place. Win all around.

    I love how riled people get by the idea of a total stranger knocking the mirror off another total stranger's car.

    Because it's just downright nasty to damage someone else's property.

    Some of us work hard to have nice things and despise idiots like you who damage them out of jealousy.

    There's also something wrong with feeling smug and satisfied having done so.

    The fact that you are proud that it was a Range Rover shows a begrudgery and jealousy.

    Stop trying to justify your own bad behaviour by saying it was badly parked. There's no excuses for criminal damage.

    Bought and paid for something on eBay and the seller strung me along by email for ages with a load of excuses until the time period for making complaints had elapsed, then stopped communicating completely.

    I used the email he had given me to sign him up for daily alerts/updates from a range of the ugliest porn sites I could find.

    Maybe, like me, they've had the wing mirrors kicked off their cars. (A legally parked Polo of it matters.) I'm sure the lad who did it to me thought it was a laugh too.

    You need to be mindful of damaging the property of some of the blokes I've seen driving Range Rovers. You'll end up in A&E or worse.

    Knocked the wing mirror off a Range Rover because it was parked on a pavement. Petty, but also very satisfying.

    I'm a doctor and I drive a Range Rover. One time I witnessed a serious accident on a road and pulled up on the pavement to get out and help. Was quite serious. I got back to my car and some had knocked the wing mirror off my car.

    So the above story is fiction but it's a possibility. We seem to live in a world where everything is treated incorrectly black and white.

    Maybe the driver was a dick. Maybe he wasn't. You didn't know that and you're certainly not judge and jury.

    I only mentioned that it was a Range Rover because I was so impressed at my ability to knock the mirror off without any real effort. I thought those things were supposed to be strong. Genuinely love the fact that people are so annoyed about it though. I just hope the owner was half as angry as the people using insults and racial epithets towards me. :)

    About 15 years ago I witnessed two knackers absolutely terrorise a little old lady shopkeeper in Tralee. They were taking sweets off the rack and throwing them around and then told her to fck off in a really nasty threatening manner. I was pretty sure I could have handled one of them but thought better of getting stuck into two. I just waited until they left and made sure the lady was ok. I so wanted to kick the living sht out of the two of them.

    About a week later I was driving home when who did I see walking down the road but my two skangers in their best tracksuits (one all white including baseball cap). Unfortunately for them they were walking beside not a puddle but a fckn LAKE of muddy water that had seeped through from the dump. This 'lake' was about 4 inches deep by about 40 feet long. Happy days. I veered left, put the foot down and literally nearly drowned the two worthless pieces of sht. I got the fckrs from head to toe. One of them was actually jumping up and down with rage. It was brilliant. Best of all I was driving a borrowed car from a garage so the scumbags wouldn't know me. Unlikey that the two pieces of sht could read a reg plate in any case.

    Then, last year I was driving through town with my kids when someone in the car in front of me threw a whole McDonalds bag out the window. I beeped the horn, flashed my lights and to my amazement he pulled over. I rolled down the passenger window to say "hey, sorry I think you dropped something back there". The second I opened my mouth I realised who I was talking to........one of the track suited scumbags all grown up with kids of his own. I moved on pretty swiftly I can tell you. Happily I don't live in Tralee anymore.

    Welcome to the face of liberalism folks...

    edit forgot to mention the revenge part.

    friend got me good once, so my revenge was to put a fish under the back seat carpet of his car, where it would be hard to find.
    we lived in a place with a very hot climate.
    Smell was still lingering months later!

    You caused several hundred euros worth of damage to somebody's car. You are an idiot plain and simple.

    At least then he'd know why his wing mirror was gone.

    I like to do a bit of fishing. I was up in blessington once and I noticed two polish guys catching and killing a lot of undersized fish..now this sort of behaviour has destroyed irish freshwater stocks so I went up to have a word with them. Firstly they pretended they didnt speak any english then when I pointed at the plastic bag of fish they got agressive. One guy bridged right up in my face and told me to **** off. They were bigger than me and I was outnumbered so I backed down.
    They had been coming and going to a jeep parked nearby so as I was leaving I ran my fishing knife through all four of thier tyres then drove off.

    Your anger amuses me greatly. Keep the name-calling coming. It actually happened back in 2001, so it would have been Punts, not Euro. I like to think I've matured since then, and wouldn't knock a mirror off an illegally parked car nowadays. Anyway, scratching the paintwork with a key is every bit as satisfying.

    I've just thought of another act of petty revenge, carried out in SuperValu. An old woman kept shoving me with her trolley, so I grabbed some sachets of Angel Delight and put them in with her shopping when she wasn't looking. To make matters worse, it was butterscotch flavour, so it wouldn't have been any use to anyone. Anyway, all's well that ends well... I subsequently tracked her down and sent her a bullet in the post.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,430 ✭✭✭RWCNT


    I'll start...

    A mate of mine woke me up while we were on holiday by throwing me in the pool. So to get him back I knew he was on a dating site and I set up a fake profile as some girl. I contacted him and got chatting back and forth for about a week, I was living with another mate so I let him in on it and we both worked the profile talking to him eventualy letting the rest of the guys in on it. We were all going out one Saturday together so we(as the girl, can't remember her name so let's say rachel) asked him was he heading out and he replied ye. We asked did he have any good looking friends for her and her mates. He replied that he had one but the rest weren't good looking, which confused the hell out of us wondering which one of us is good looking. Any we told him we would be in some club and to meet us there about 12. All night that night he was looking at his phone until eventually he asked one of our mates if he wanted to go to said club. Immediately I responded "we will go with" but he said not too as they would check it out if it was good and report back. I them said"oh you aren't going to meet Rachel are you?" And too his surprise he asks "What?" And then everyone burst out laughing at him for not only being catfished but that we all knew which one of the group he thought was good looking.

    He took it well to be honest.

    Let's hear yours


    That is a seriously weird thing to do. I hope you don't share that story with people IRL too often.

    A lady who was hard on me in a student job and used to order me around would order her coffee a certain way, with two sweetners. And I put real sugar in. Like a badass.

    Another guy annoyed me in work and I saw him trying to flag me down during a heavy rain shower for a lift into the city a couple of days later, and I pretended I didn't see him. And I liked it.

    You mess with me, you pay the consequences.

    I worked in a hardware shop many years ago and there was this man who i actually knew very well, would come in every other week pricing materials for a house he was building.
    I always tried to keep the prices down for all his quotations but he never once bought anything from me.
    I heard later that he was using my prices to bargain with other shops and get the materials cheaper i was livid.
    So this day a plumber comes in, gets a few bits and tells me he's plumbing ur man's new house, 10minutes after he leaves in walks the guy with a typed up quotation for all the plumbing gear for the house and says can you put a price on this for me.
    unbelievably he gives me the original quotation he has got from another supplier with all their prices and i just knock €10 of every item and print it up and hand it back to him and its almost €460 cheaper than the other one and he has a plumber fitting this stuff at his new house.
    The auld bastard nearly has a coronary at the counter when he see's it and asks my boss to check it out that there must be a mistake. I winked at the boss gave him the heads up and he took another €100 of the total. By this time ur man is gone mental cursing the other store. The best revenge i ever got on anyone.

    I do and in context it goes down super well and is funny as it should be...most of the time with the person that was "aggrieved" present..the same way my story of being thrown in the pool goes down well. Different groups of people find different things funny get over it and it makes life a lot easier if you and you friends have different types of stories to tell at parties etc

    30 years ago back in school I (female) was bullied so I signed up the (male) bully to some mailing lists which posted out free samples....of Tampax and other feminine hygiene products. Luckily his name could be either male or female. It didn't stop the bullying but I was happy that he would be suitably mortified at home which gave me a better attitude and he left me alone after that. Revenge worked!

    That reminds me of a prank I played on my cousin. He wasn't bullying me or anything, I just did it for a laugh as he's always pranking me.

    A couple of years ago I signed him up for a monthly menstruation subscription box. Every month he'd be delivered a pink box tied with a ribbon and inside would be tampons, a romance novel, chocolate, and other bits and pieces like bath bombs.

    He cancelled a few times and I'd get notification and sign him up again, and every month that ribboned pink box would be delivered to his address, which at the time was the US Naval Base, 32nd Street Station, San Diego. Explain that, sailor!

    It was well worth the $15 a month, took him ages to figure out it was me. :)

    I know a plumber who couldn't get paid thousands of euros from a builder. He put a marble into the mains pipe one evening. He knew where the marble would get stuck but builder wouldn't. . He refuse to go back until he got paid. Several plumbers couldn't work it out so he had to be paid. Five min job to fix and cost builder loads. Served him right

    Write about them on boards. Now that is petty revenge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,887 ✭✭✭✭bear1


    Wouldn't class this as petty.
    Back in January I bought a ps4 online, I stupidly thought I was getting a bargain.
    So I order it and pay online and I get a message from the seller it will be sent the following work day.
    Couple days pass and nothing.
    Call him up and says he was busy and has sent it today.
    Emails me the tracking number and i see its valid.
    Along comes the ps4 but not as i expected it.
    Scratches everywhere and doesn't work.
    Queue the silence from this clown.
    Finally he says OK send it back to me and I'll return the money.
    Returned it via registered post and waited. And waited. And waited.
    This guy drops off, so he ends up with my money and the merchandise.
    Luckily I paid by credit card so I called the bank and put a claim in but they said the seller had 40 days to answer or something like this.
    Whilst the bank is doing their thing I finally managed to get a hold of him and I told him I've reported the issue to the bank.
    The gob****e sends me half what I paid back and says in an email this now concludes the deal...
    The revenge? The bank a few days later refunded me the entire amount plus shipping so I got my money back and half this ****ers money.
    The feeling of spending it was just divine.

    But two mates winding each other up like the OP and his friend is funny. It might be juvenile but, f**k it, you can't be a humourless, responsible adult all the time.
