r/Pettyrevenge I Destroyed My Bully's Marriage 

Story 3: Glad to hear the stepdad was chill and had a good laugh about this. He is probably incredibly embarrassed that his wife is doing this all the time, so when OP did what he did, he figured this was the chance for his wife to take the damn hint and stop. XD

The silence story: I 100% expected OP to wait for their brother to fall asleep, sneak into their room and tally mark their arm then go to bed. Maybe that would have been too evil xD

I love the brother story. Because it's really just a petty revenge between siblings and they remained best friends / brothers. Just a funny story to reminisce when they've all grown up. Really wholesome in a way. Thanks OP for emphasizing that there were no bad blood and you two remain close together.

Stepdad sounds like a real bro. I wonder if he was watching his wife rearrange things the first time and felt embarrassed because of it

Story 3; I love that the stepdad was just supportive, "I'm not going to participate, but go for it and do what you want!" I love how the mother didn't get angry, just accepted that she had done the same thing, so this was justified. Lesson learned! I'm glad they were all mature about it in the end.

Story 1: I can positively say bullying a person does leave long lasting effects. I've had issues since high school.

The idea that any parent thinks it's okay to just change other people's living spaces makes me want to scream. Bless my mom chose to live out of state bc if she did this to me I'd loose my mind

Gotta say, sealing a cheap Amazon ring in metal box is hilarious, especially when he hasn’t tried to get it open somehow or get another ring considering it was less than $200

Bullies deserve no mercy, and OP was a hero for saving that poor woman from that creature.

Just $200? OP should've charged $500, at least, since she no longer has family discount and deserves an a-hole tax.

It's nice to see bullys getting what's coming to him as he began to flirt the minute someone pretended to show interest

Story 3: It's honestly nice that the step-dad wasn't a douche. He was nice. He didn't say a word about op moving all of the furniture around. He just went with the flow 😂.

As a Doctor Who nerd, I can appreciate the Silence jumpscare OP pulled. But for the uninitiated, this sort of kid-friendly psychological horror is kind of the foundation of the show lmao

problem with bullying is the schools never do AYTHING to the bullies but as soon as the victim tried to defend themselves the school always punishes the victim

Honestly, there's nothing in me that feels sorry for people who get caught out cheating like that. Even if someone was being really flirty with me in my DMs, I wouldn't reciprocate and lay some boundaries down. The fact he was so quick to jump on anyone with female bits and a tinge of interest is just kind of revealing who he is ahead of time to his fiancee. You kinda did her a favour, OP, even if it wasn't your intention.

First story, that's not petty revenge, that's pro revenge because that's some big damage. Still good though and did the ex-fiancee a favor.

Oh, the Doctor Who one is GENIUS! Maybe also get an angel statue and move it around when the other brother isn't looking, just for shits and giggles.

Story 6: I remember the Silence. They were probably one of the last truly scary original monsters created for Doctor Who up to this point.

3rd story: The mother took OP's revenge surprisingly well. I was expecting hypocritical moral outrage. Maybe I'm being cynical, but there are too many people in the world who can dish it but can't take it.

Story 6: That comes to $33.33 an hour. That's just excessive for family babysitting. I seriously don't know what she was thinking, but I hope she never pulls that again

On the last story about the ring, way to go. You're living rent free in his head. I laughed my ass off at your ingenious revenge.

Story 3: I don't care if you think your arrangement of furniture is better, if it's my house, I'll arrange my furniture however I want. If I want my couches to clutter one side of the room, so be it. If I want my table to only have chairs on three sides, so be it.

First story: OP shouldn't feel the least bit bad. The revenge wouldn't have worked if the bully had actually become a better person. Also, good for the mom in story 3 for actually learning her lesson. I was expecting her to throw a fit and be like "no its okay when I do it because I'm right!"

For you DND geeks who don’t touch Dr. Who, the closest equivalent to The Silence is the False Hydra Have fun!

Happy 4th of July everyone. First Story: So catfishing ur bully and ruining is relationship is considered "petty revenge" now? That was more like straight up revenge Second Story: Thats the CEO's rule biting him right in the ass lol Third Story: This was bit funny lol. The only way OP had to do to get their mom to stop is to rearrange furniture at her house. I’m sure thats something they can laugh about Comment: We all have a junk drawer Fourth Story: All that man had to do is be patient. Now he has pay a lot of money for 2 brand new tires Fifth Story: That is not only revenge, that is holding a grudge. $200 for 6 hours of babysitting is absolutely insanity Sixth Story: After years of pranking OP, OP finally managed to scare her brother so badly he stopped pranking them Seventh Story: So this guy has a well paying job but still made OP pay for everything and was too cheap to get OP a decent engagement ring? I hope he have trying to get it out that box to this day

Lol man I am so happy that my parents never try to rearrange my stuff on their own. Although they did do something similar once but it was genuinely one of the nicest things they have done for me as an adult. I was living in an apartment about 2 hours from them and was going to school full time and working on the weekends. I was telling my mom how overwhelmed I was and how I hated being in my home because of how messy it was but I didn’t have the time/energy to take care of it. I was driving to work and almost in tears from how tired I was. I couldn’t even make myself food because I had no clean dishes or space. I worked my shift and when I got home my entire apartment was spotless. Her and my dad had driven down and deep cleaned my apartment. They did the laundry, the dishes, played with my dog and just made the place beautiful! They didn’t rearrange anything. It was just so perfect! It still fills me with warmth and love years later.

My mom also tried to tell me what to do in my own apartment, she got really mad when I told her that she didn't make the rules in my home.

I was bullied in middle school and high school, I never got over it. It's still with me to this day. This is why I don't have many friends as I won't TRUST ANYONE.

That last video is one of the longest-lasting, pettiest revenges I've ever heard in my life

Story 7:As a proud practitioner of the jump scare I understand the need to act upon an easy target, that being said I'm also a very firm believer in Turn about being fair play.

bullying definitely has permanent effects on people. i'm still dealing with the bullying i suffered in third grade 🙃

For that story about the brothers and the silence monster…well I really thought he was going to wait until the brother was asleep and draw a bunch of marks on him 😭

Good morning everyone! Happy 4th of July and thank you R/slash for another video!

Thank god my family doesn't move stuff when they visit. My mom has suggested some things, some advice I have taken, some I haven't. My mom has also bought me some plants she thought would go nicely with my other plants, which was very sweet of her. Other than that, they don't really interfere with my apartment, thank god. Kinda weird to try and control a 30 year old mans appartment. My landlady has also given me some suggestions, like my mom has. She says i do pretty good decorstion and matching durniture for a man, but it never hurts to have a woman's touch since they're generally better housemakers, which is usually true, and I'll generally listen so long as it doesn't come at the cost of utility or convience, lol.

there’s something about that mom that fills me with rage. how unhinged do you have to be to go to someone else’s house and rearrange everything? and why am i so mad about it?

The brother story: my brother was like that, jumping out at me from darkened rooms as I was about to walk through them. It stopped one day when I yelled really loud and we both got in trouble for. He still tries to freak me out a bit, however he hasn't been able to really get me in years. The dogs however, sometimes they get my heart to jump lol

Oh yeah definitely OP saved woman from heartache because if he was that easy to flirt with other women like that so easily then yeah the marriage was doomed.

Parents *love* "my house, my rules" until it's turned around on them. Also, whether you liked their previous set-up or not, making it so the bedroom door hits the bed (and I assume not open completely) is objectively worse.

The Doctor Who one was golden. A little more context for that episode: They suggest that the silence had been living on earth for potentially hundreds of years, coaching humanity in a certain direction. They manage to defeat them by tricking one of them into saying "you should kill us all on sight" and feeding that footage through the Apollo moon landing footage, subliminally ordering their own execution without humans even realise they're killing them. They often hide on ceilings in groups and it was a common scare they did whenever they appeared

Story 2: I'm actually impressed at OP's mom simply taking it in and confirming it with "point taken". I expected more resistance, anger or other behaviour

"The Silence looks like an alien in a lovely suit." For being heartless monsters, they sure do have beautiful fashion sense!

I have the same problem with my mom. She constantly rearragend my appartment when she visits and i'm at work. I hate it. I tried to talk about this with her multiple times but she still does it from time to time. OP in Story 3 gave give a good idea on how to solve this issue 😂

Okay, okay 😂 that last one is genius 😂 one hundred million percent keeping that idea in the back of the mind!

6:19 this story right here is a prime example of the misery of car dependency. if he was planning on leaving by bus or bike, he wouldn't have to worry about getting blocked in

Babysitting story (the family rate section): $200 for six hours is about $33 an hour. If the SIL wasnt bullshitting about this being her livelihood and had a childcare degree and they both live in a high cost of living area, that would be understandable but still high for a family rate. The average hourly rate for nannies across the US is $20.57 an hour for one kid and $23.25 for two kids.

That girl getting her brother back was a good one. I personally would have snuck into his room while he slept and put a bunch of tally marks on HIS arm so when he woke up.....hehehehe

You have no idea how much it warms my geeky heart to hear about a Whovian revenge prank. Well played!

Story 1: Damn, it took only 20 minutes for that D-bag to take the bait? OP totally saved that former bride-to-be. This story should’ve been on r/prorevenge tbh. (Though it would’ve been extra amusing if OP and ex fiancé somehow ended up together)

can we all agree that rSlash should make a clever pun at the end of each story?

The parking story, that's not petty revenge. That's pro revenge. The guy could have eaten the 17 minutes, and twenty seconds, and gone about his day. But no, he now has to spend what, 150, 200$ on new tires? Plus the tow truck to get him out of there. -chef kiss- mwah

When I was in seventh grade, an eleventh grade boy chased me across campus for two days in a row and hit my ankles with a belt the second day. Because of him, anyone that is significantly taller than me and too close to me triggers a flight response.

When I heard "The Silence", i knew what OP was gonna do. I love Doctor Who, and I love that concept for a monster.

Moving Furniture: “…sat down, looked at me and said…” [cue abrupt ad break music] 🎼Hit it! It takes two to make a thing go riiiiiieeeeght🎶 And that is absolutely how I want that scene to have gone down. 😂😂🤣

Bully's don't deserve happiness. Gj OP.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!!!! Also, $33 an hour for babysitting? Damn!

On the last story, I guess we should amend the phrase “never mess with the IT guy” to “never mess with the IT guy or a welder”! Bravo, OP!!! On the jump scare story, reminds me of a funny story from my youth. My younger sister loved to tease me. She and another girl were in my sister’s bedroom one night watching Psycho. Not being into scary movies I opted out. I lurked by her door for a few minutes about an hour into the movie. I waited silently for the swell of music that precedes something scary is about to happen. Here is where I pause to share, the door had long since been damaged and no longer latched closed. So it opened with a gentle push. When I needed to knock on her door, I made it a habit to hold it closed via the doorknob first. I assume you all see where this is going! Yes, I waited for the music to reach its spooky heights, then shoved the door open with both hands, yelling. Both girls jumped and SCREAMED! All 3 of us were laughing very hard! It was pretty awesome!!

I was expecting the silence story to have the brother putting tally marks on the brother at night so he woke up to being covered... Damn

The furniture story is proof growth and understanding can happen!

Last story - In many states/countries, an engagement ring is essentially a contract. By cheating on OP, her ex violated the contract and wouldn't be entitled to getting the ring back, unless he offered to pay OP the full value of the ring.

The stepdad in the furniture bit was the MVP though xD

Sibling Pranks: My brother had the bad habit of licking my arm because he knew I hated it, and would always run to wash right after, and he'd do it again. Then, I got the bright idea: Instead of washing the soap off, I'd rub it in so you couldn't tell my arm was covered in soap. That was the LAST time he played that game, and I got a 'way to think outside the box' from Mom.

That last story was gold! As a side note, cubes were a theme of another episode of Doctor Who.

I have a key to my 3 kids home, I have only used them when asked.. My son is closest to me so I'm over there with him more. The one thing I've NEVER done is just use their key whenever I want and I've never EVER touched their things!! Wtf is wrong with families not respecting their kids boundaries? I'm so loving OP and putting his mom in her place.. The step-dad is the shizz though, sounds like my husband.. I don't even clean unless asked or I ask if they want me too! 😂😂

My mom has only rearranged my furniture once. Because I bought a new shelf that she helped me assemble, and then did some mild rearranging to accommodate it (I moved my TV over and swapped my couch and end table to keep it centered). This is because her mom used to like to show up at my parents place and rearrange their furniture, and she swore she’d never do that to her kids.

Love the siblings story! Very funny and lol THE LAST STORY IS THE BEST! Yo dude that is funny and pathetic he still haven’t gotten the cheap ring out of that box!

Story 3: I'd have been so livid too! And the audacity of the mum to do it again after being told off and asked to leave OP's stuff alone. Nice petty revenge!

Who would've thought? Cheating gets you in trouble? No way!

Last Story, you dodged a bulliet, if he's so stupid he couldn't get a ring out of a metal box he'd be too stupid to marry. I mean, angel grinder, 10 seconds, job done!

Rslash says a terrible dad joke about tires and I flicked my phone like it would do anything 😂

That silence story wouldve been amazing if they went up to the bathroom, got the tally marks, then screamed, and when they came to investigate and ask "what's wrong?" Look at them and say "I don't know" with the tally marks clearly showing, that would definitely be a 10 on the scare factor XDDD

As someone who is also a fan of Doctor Who, that story was DELIGHTFUL!! Perfect revenge!!

Also you can tell your brother loves you when you guys will willingly prank each other and I love the fact that he’s going to be your groomsmen at your wedding👍

Aaa those furniture rearrangement stories actually made me lol. Thanks, I needed that 😂 2:44

1st story: That bully really jumped at the first chance he got to cheat

Good morning Dabne!!! Is it bad I rate my morning by did I wake up before or after R/Slash uploads?? I dunno how to start my day until 9am now

That Doctor Who prank is genius! Absolutely genius!

1st story: Honestly, if he was so open to cheat that easily,with such an easy bait. He probably was. and still is, a POS.

I love the little dad jokes he slides into the videos 😂😂

The sibling story gave me nostalgic memories. I'm gonna go visit sis and tease her

Man, that ring story. She didn't remember it until a decade later, and yet she's been living rent-free in that man's head all this time. Is there a label for this kind of revenge? Low-effort, but high-reward.

If you can break the ring out of the box you can marry this man. You really shouldn't ignore the warnings of how well the box is made.

My mom took it upon herself to clean my toilet when she was over last. She used paper towels instead of the cloths I usually use for cleaning, and she dumped them in the garbage can right next to the toilet when she was done. The fumes were basically a biohazard to my sensory sensitivities.

I babysit for a family over the summer. $200 is what I make at the end of the week! Not in one day!!

The silence will fall when the question is asked. Doctor Who? DOC-TOR WHOOOO?

Ok along with don’t mess with the IT guy also don’t mess with a tradesmen (welding, carpentry, plumbing, electrician, ext) they will get back at you in some way

Honestly Im surprised that Norsewolf98 didn't pretend to be a Weeping Angel instead

Gotta love that pinch of Malicious Compliance that was added in the 2nd story.

6th story: I would have asked for $201 just for the hell of it

One thing I absolutely know is to not mess with trades people. I listened to a story about a toolbox being welded to the topside inside of a warehouse. My educational degrees are in other areas. But I have a welder and I could make your life miserable. I promise, my welds will not be pretty, but they will be effective.

Some nosey people will voluntarily move things around and reorganize your things to cover the fact that they were snooping. Instead of one or two things being slightly out of place and therefore noticeable, everything is out of place, making nothing stand out. I had a sister like that. If/when something turned up missing, she would say she didn't see it while she was "cleaning," so "you must have lost it."

My text tone is literally the silence saying “Silence will fall”. Spooky and really scares the crap out of people. 😂

Theirs a comedian I saw, And he said, he loved his wife and kids, and told himself if anyone tried to flirt with him, He would just scream 'I love my wife and kids' like man so he wouldn't do anything stupid

Shout out to the ceo for being a good sport and not screaming and crying over his own coffee rule xD

For the first story, I feel like we could make a new segment called Malicious Heroism.

Friendly reminder, Family Discount is *ALWAYS* an increase if they ask, and a decrease if they don't

My family babysitting rate is a respectful $33/hr and i won't watch them the full 8 hrs

Story 1 nta the bully would have cheated anyway.

The tally mark story was SO refreshing lmao 🥲

$200 for 6 hours comes to roughly $33 per hour. The average hourly cost for a nanny/sitter in the US is $20 per hour. I’m curious how she put her billing together, for $33 to be her “cheap” rate, or if she just pulled that number out of her behind.

I really don't understand parents who go into their kids houses and mess with stuff. Is it a power play thing? Is it an infantilizing thing? I'm really struggling to understand. My mom barely likes cleaning her own space and she has enough respect not to touch my stuff when she comes over. Heck, she never even touched my room as a kid. I find this behavior so weird.
