I was left with access to a suitcase of the "other woman's" clothes.
I unpicked the side seams of everything, dropped a stitch in a very complicated hand knit and destroyed her passport. Didn't stop them, but it slowed things down a bit

My favourite revenge story ....
Husband tells wife of 20 years or so that he has fallen in love with younger woman and, after the divorce he and his new wife get the house as part of the divorce settlement.
But before she moves out ex-wife wants revenge so she puts prawns in the curtain rods. Time passes, the husband and his new wife cannot find where the smell is coming from and it becomes unbearable. They try to sell the house but naturally potential buyers are few when they view and smell the house. The husband gives up and rings his ex-wife saying that his new wife wants to move and he would feel better if she (ex-wife) had the house - would she like to buy it from him? She agrees but to a much lower than market price.
When ex-wife moves back in she finds an empty house - they have cleaned it out ... all the furniture and fittings - including the curtain rods.

When the ex-hubby cheated on me for the upteenth time, and i finally had *proof*, I got so p*ssed off that one night, while he was sleeping, I krazy-glued his d*ck to his leg.

" I krazy-glued his d*ck to his leg. "
Did you get the idea from Pulp Fiction?
I've never taken revenge. I'm not a revenge sort of person, at least regarding relationship stuff. As far as I'm concerned, as the old proverb goes, "the best revenge is to live well", so I just draw a line firmly under it and move on.
On the other hand, I've taken revenge for other things. Someone at university thought it would be a humourous prank to let off a fire hose on our landing. Everyone got quite a bit of water under their door, and the place smelled damp for weeks. At the time, I said nothing, did nothing. The following week, I and a friend stole a wheelie bin at about 3am and took it to his room, filled it nearly full of water (and we're talking probably 70 gallons plus here, it took us ages trying to do it quietly...) and left it propped against his bedroom door. When he opened his door that morning he was hit by a tidal wave. I'm reliably informed his shout could be heard from two floors up. Nobody ever discovered the culprits, and they never spoke of it again... until today!

Why do it at all?
I have just looked up the term crazy glue. On the page to a British person like me it looks a little like silly string maybe a fun party glue
But it most certainly is not!
It is also known as super glue highly adhesive and the sort of stuff it warns on the packet against getting on your skin. Anywhere on your skin let alone your genitals.
Now lets re-do an earlier post.
I found out my wife had cheated on me and decided to seal her vagina shut with zany stapples.
Just where do people get off being somehow amused or proud about that sort of thing. If you heard a man in the pub talking about doing a Bobbit on his girlfriend by slicing off one of her breasts if he found her cheating I hope you'd all be repulsed but it seems to be OK to go around talking about mutilating men for the *crime* of infidelity.

I have to admit I sat here for about five minutes with my mouth hanging open after reading that.
Like - WTF???
Did that somehow make you feel 'better'?
I see no point in revenge. Someone has hurt you? Well, move on. It serves no purpose to try and 'get even' except to lower oneself to the same level that one has been hurt by - and usually revenge stoops even lower.
Well, Hoo's 'revenge prank' was obviously that - a prank. Not a serious revenge tactic.
Why is it okay to hurt someone *just because they hurt you*? And not just to hurt them a bit emotionally but to actually cause serious bodily harm.
Is anything ever gained by this sort of nasty behaviour?

I read somewhere that, in theory, you have to give someone permission to treat you badly....

The Groob Posted Nov 12, 2004
Thus if you get angry and 'take revenge' you are actually angry with yourself for giving them permission...

I'm one of life's shouters at the television. One of the things I once shouted at was a chat show along the lines of Kilroy on which the subject was revenge.
A gentleman was sitting on the stage relating what his wife had done to him. He had been unfaithful to her, and she had found out. So she waited until he was asleep. She went downstairs. She melted a dozen candles in saucepan on the stove. She then poured the *boiling* wax onto his genitals.
The audience's reaction? Titters.
The man then described how the flesh of his thighs started to slough off and the skin of scrotum melted, and how he had needed months of skin grafts and reconstructive surgery before he could walk again.
The audience f**king tittered. I wanted to take every single one of the people in that audience (mostly women, naturally) and drop a saucepan of boiling wax on their smug, self-satisfied c**ts and see if they were tittering then.
There is a double standard in society in which violence by women on men is seen as not just acceptable but actually funny, whereas if a man should raise his hand to a woman in self-defence he is made a pariah. Women, like men, should be (but apparently are not) taught that violence is NOT acceptable, and society should punish them identically. Comparative physical weakness is not an excuse, especially when the bitches get ideas about superglue and boiling wax.

I would wager those women perceive themselves as victims, wallow in being a victim and identify with other victims.

If someone put grass seed in my carpet I'd think that rather cool.
