26 Hilarious Stories of Revenge

Whether it’s karmic retribution or the painstakingly planned-out slow-burn of getting even, revenge feels good. In fact, there’s an entire category of fantasies dedicated to our desire to snatch back the upper hand when we feel like we’ve been wronged. And if you manage to make the retaliation funny along the way, it opens up a whole new level of satisfaction. 

To that end, Redditors recently took to the platform to relish in the times they hilariously served up someone’s just desserts…

failing_forwards 6y I had a guy in school who would always skip class and then ask for my notes. We had a group project worth almost 40% of our grade and he did zero work, and the prof told me tough luck. Instead of just saying no the next time he asked for notes, I took the low road and began giving him edited versions. I would leave items out of lists, incorrectly define things or just straight up write stuff that makes no sense. An example of the crap I would put in: To calculate return on investment, subtract
MenudoMenudo . 6y I put glitter in my friend's laundry in university. Не had pranked me the week before, and a week later was doing all his laundry at once. I went and got some glitter from the craft store, and put half a vial into each of his loads of laundry. Не was fabulous for months afterwards. ... 194
chippynasty 6y Had a roommate in my freshman year of college who happened to make fun of my dyslexia on the worst of all possible days. Не had no idea how much that moment stuck with me. However, he would. Не left that night and I set about dyslexifying the room. Imagine everything in the room was now it's mirror image down the middle of it. it was a typical dormroom, so I think many of us had a side of the room in this experience. I went as far as reversing the icons on his computer screen, every book
Tsquare43 6y In college (early 1990's), I lived with several guys in a suite. One liked to call me chunky A, yes, I was chubby (I still am, but I have lost a lot of weight and I am continue to lose more). I asked him politely but firmly to not call me that. Не laughed and did it more. I proceeded to call up every info-merrical I saw on TV to send him baldness cures (he was losing his hair), Tourist information from places like lowa and Nebraska, had information sent to him about adult bed wetting, etc. Не
b8le 6y A woman I work with literally stole this great story that I tell about me being in the same hospital at the same time that my niece was born. She tells it as it was her husband and she was in the hospital giving birth. She's a known one-upper, everything you do she did it better, faster, it was worse for her etc etc so it didn't surprise me when a coworker told me she regularly tells clients that story. So now, every single day as I get in I pour a tiny bit of my water bottle
weshric . 6y I had a boss whom I couldn't stand. One day, she banned microwave popcorn in the office because she hated the smell. About a month later, I bought one of those USB drives that has scented oil inside...scented like buttered popcorn. I plugged it in on the side of her desktop. Took her 6 months to figure it out. ... 410
MammerJam 6y Not me, but my aunt once found out that a boyfriend was cheating on her. Instead of confronting him, she wanted to get petty revenge. She knew where he kept his hide-a-key, so one day while he was at work she spent the whole day at his house. She rearranged all the furniture (brought the upstairs furniture downstairs and vice versa). She also took all the canned goods in his pantry, steamed off the labels, shuffled them, and put them back on at random. This included the canned dog food. Motherfucker would think he was opening some soup
porcelain_queen . 6y On every email I send, I attach my name, company, position, etc. ALL the time people will respond Thank you Sara....but my name is spelled with the H. I have started to reply to them leaving off a letter of their name. No problem Rene Have a good day Jon. They probably think I am an idiot, but it is worth it to me. ... 747
caca_milis_ 6y When I was a kid I got the Sabrina the Teenage Witch Handbook - it was full of kiddie experiemtns and stuff and was pretty fun. My older sister had upset or annoyed me about something, so I tried out one of the 'tricks' from the book, you fill a cup with water and some corn kernels, put some tinfoil on top of the cup, the kernels eventually pop and it makes noise against the tinfoil. I put it under her bed, it takes a few days to work, so I completely forgot about it, until one night I woke
aidyfarman 6y This dude in my accounting class in high school used to ask me for answers to questions, only to spout then to the teacher like he'd worked them out, thereby looking like a genius and getting credit for my work. One day our teacher comes in to class with a pierced tongue and is talking sort of funny. Terry, as his name is, proceeds to use it as a point of conversation. Hey miss, do you have any other piercings, like your ear? No,, she responds, thinking he's making inane conversation. Would you get your nose pierced? Не
iwmcguy 6y This happened a while back, study hall in 8th grade actually. I always brought two small sandwiches to school so I could have one at lunch and one in study hall since our teacher let us eat in that class. One day as I was about to eat my Sandwich, I get up to use the bathroom. As I walk back in the classroom, I see the kid in front of me eating my sandwich. I was pretty annoyed but nothing serious at this point, so I confront him politely and he denies it completely. I left my
hardybe 6y When I was a kid I had a bed wetting problem. I am not ashamed of this now, as thousands of other kids have had the same problems... at the time however, this was humiliating. My younger brother started telling other kids around school how extensive the issue was. I was mortified. Even after our mother told him to knock it off, he continued. So I decided to level the playing field. The whole hand in cup of warm water deal didn't work. I stood over him as he slept one night and pissed on him. The next
yeahhtrue 6y Back in college, I was sitting in the library trying to work on an assignment. All was quiet for a while until this one obnoxious guy came in and sat at a table near me and proceeded to pull out his phone and have the loudest, most obnoxious conversation with one of his friends. Lots of BRO, SERIOUSLY BRO? and yadda yadda. I was about to pack up my things and find somewhere else to work when the conversation turned to Netflix. The guy told his friend he should just use his account, and proceeded to loudly state
sippistar 6y Work related- My co-worker was always complaining and always lazy with his work, yet he got recognition for the simplest thing he would actually do. Не also took credit for a full days work that was pretty much all me. I always got ignored. So one day, I came in early and I unplugged his Ethernet jack just barley to the point it looked like it was still plugged into his computer. For 4 hours he couldn't do any work. Meanwhile, I got my work done, and he couldn't take any credit for it since everyone knew he
charizard_72 . 6y I was mad at my sister so I took her doll and rubbed a Twix bar in its ass and pulled up the dolls pants. When we were playing my doll was making fun of her doll for pooping her pants and she kept denying it. So my doll pulled her dolls pants down and sure enough there was the Twix shit. Edit: made clearer the Twix was rubbed on dolls ass not sisters. ... 521
hollypopasaurus . 6y 2 Awards Ok this one is pretty gross.. but growing up in a house of only girls, personal space does not exist. We used to bathe in front of each other, and even use the bathroom in front of each other. There are no boundaries. My younger sister was notorious for shaving in the tub and not rinsing it out when she was done. Pubes. Everywhere. One day she was taking a bath and I asked her to rinse when she was done, because I planned on taking a bath afterwards. She told me to fuck off.
JoeySalamander . 6 6y A guy at work pissed me off. I placed this Craigslist ad with his phone number. 2 free goats. Hablas espanol. Не spent the rest of the day getting calls every 15 minutes or so. ... 6.3k
DoctorRaulDuke 6y Guy's swerved across two lanes on the highway one day and cut me up. I slammed on the anchors and gave a good indignant blow of my horn. Не starts acting like Mr Angry at being called out so starts slamming on his brakes, then speeding up if I try to overtake, flipping me the bird, the whole caboodle. Seeing the next junction coming up I flash my lights and start beckoning to him in classic 'you want a piece of me?' mime, and mouthing 'come on then'. Then start pointing at the upcoming junction. Не obviously believes
AR3Leatherworks 6y 1 Award Someone in my office would always crush lunches with his gigantic ass lunch box. Either he ate bricks or lead, I don't know, but I always came to the office fridge and found that my lunch was in pieces. So, after three bouts of this, and numerous notes from myself and other colleagues, I carefully removed his lunch box, emptied the contents (a gigantic sandwich, a Twinkie, chips, some vegetable pieces, and a few other bits), and ran over them with my car. I carefully packed it back in, and put it back. Не kept his
Dyed my hair blue so boss would stop blaming me for hair in customer's food I used to work for a sandwich shop. All the other employees there were Indian women with very long black hair. Mine was sort of similar I suppose? Medium length and brown. But every time a customer would complain about a long black hair in the food, my boss would immediately blame me without any hesitation or investigation, despite the fact that I was the only person who wore my hair up and netted. So one day I dyed my hair blue with the sole
Mom won't believe nsfw site was popup ad, son shows her it can happen to anyone. Originally by u/Mister_AA When I was a kid my mom caught me looking at a porn site and I claimed it was a popup but she clearly didn't believe me. A few days later when she wasn't looking I pulled the same site up on her work laptop and hid it behind her browser window and pretended to catch her in the act when she closed her browser and the porn site showed up on her screen. She was flabbergasted and claimed it was
Poured him the cheap $8 wine all day I was working bar at a VIP event and went to the fridge to get more stock. I was gone maybe 45 seconds and in that time, some self-important AH came behind the bar, cracked a bottle of expensive white and poured himself two huge glasses. The guests all knew they were not supposed to go behind or access the bar. It was an open bar with a lot of expensive wine. I made sure that everytime he came to the bar for the rest of the day I served him Jacob's
Officer didn't give a warning, so I told his kid he couldn't ride For the last few years, I've worked preseason at an amusement park. I have the final call as a supervisor, since I've got six year seniority, even though I only work 8 days a year. Five years ago a police officer gave me a citation for driving 5 MPH over the limit, even though I hadn't received a citation since 2001. Two days ago, a ride operator called me because someone was upset that his child wasn't tall enough to ride. Although I could have allowed his
gamerladyM . 6y In high school I skipped class because I felt like I didn't need to be there if I still did my homework and showed up for tests. My journalism teacher assigned each student a topic to write about for midterms. She thought she was clever when she assigned me: the value of the attendance policy. My article dismissed the attendance policy as a tool of the establishment, citing government funding as the basis for the policy. I got an A-. I've kept the paper all these years as a trophy. ... 514
SerLannister . 6y I was in a boarding house in high school and this one guy was always really mean to me. After about 2 months I couldn't take it anymore and had to do something to make him suffer (but not too much). So every night I would take some milk from the dining room and pour it on his cubicle floor (it was carpet so it soaked it up). As a result his cubicle always stank and he never could figure out why. ... 148
occasionalwisdom 6y My boss would run over to my desk and eat my lunch when I wasn't looking. Just take a bite of it and leave it there. I bought a microwaveable cake from the works canteen, microwaved it for 3 minutes so it was like lava and left it at my desk. I can still hear the screams. ... 53
