Revenge against the shitty flatmate
Love this forum so much because I am a petty person. I have been trying to think of a petty revenge thing I have done, but none comes to mind. However, my sister, who is petty af as well, recently did a pretty good petty revenge against her unreasonable flatmate.
Just a bit of background story about her flatmate.
Her flatmate, let’s call her Karen, loved to steal food and kitchenware from my sister and the other flatmates. Karen would, for example, take half of someone else’s onion and place it back; she would also use other people’s pots and knives and put them in the sink afterwards without even trying to clean them.
Karen would also put her used socks and pantyhose in the hallway and would not pick them up for months. Karen also had a used coconut placed in the kitchen for 2 months that started to mold, but she wouldn’t throw it into the bin for “religious reasons.”
One time, she burnt a pot which the landlady provided for everyone to use, and she just tossed the burnt pot onto the balcony and did not attempt to throw it away properly or purchase a new pot.
Around 2 months ago, my sister found Karen’s student card on the floor and had this perfect idea. My sister placed the student card and the bathtub plug in the burnt pot and told me, “If Karen rights the wrong and throws away the burnt pot properly, she would find all the things she wants.” But obviously Karen wouldn’t.
So for 2 months, Karen had been complaining about her lost student card and the lost bathtub plug. She did ask my sister if she threw away the bathtub plug, but my sister kept a straight face and said she didn’t throw the bathtub plug away (she indeed didn’t). It was only until 2 days ago that Karen found her lost student ID card and the bathtub plug in the burnt pot. She sent a text into the flatmate group and said replacing the student card cost her 1000 dollars (total BS) and that she would like some reimbursement. Obviously no one replied to her, and it was Karen’s last day in the apartment anyway, as she is following her boyfriend back to India.
Btw, since Karen had been using religious reasons to refuse to throw away the molded coconut and other stuff, my sister also decided to use religious reasons to retaliate. When Karen walked past the hallway and left her used pantyhose there, my sister would say those pantyhose were a symbol of seduction in my sister’s religion and ask if Karen was trying to seduce my sister’s boyfriend. Karen then quietly threw away her used socks and pantyhose and never left any pantyhose or socks in the hallway again.
The more I write, the more I realise how petty my sister was. But she did what she had to do, and I am so proud of her. Cheers.
