Petty? Why yes. Thankyou.
This is some petty revenge I had on a housemate back in the day.
Setting le scene.
At the time I was around 34 and the other house mates Bill (22M), Ted (23M) and Jess (24F) were good friends so moving and living together seemed like a win win. It was not.
We all paid the same rent so should, yes, SHOULD have had the same access to the shared living spaces. This, was not the case. Ted built models, lots of models, so many in fact the living room was full of them and we, (the other three housemates) were unable to go in as there wasn't enough room to sit or watch TV. It became so bad that it was like Ted owned the house (he did not) and we just dwelt there. After repeated house meetings about it we had had enough.
Now to the petty revenge.
Ted was very very particular with his models, they had to be displayed a set way and all the correct bits and pieces set perfectly on the shelves. We'll, I moved them.
Swapping characters around to different sets, swapping heads/torsos/legs to different people, putting them in battles with each other. Just random silly little things. But it drove him absolutely batshit crazy! I used to do it at all hours of the day and night and he would wake up, or come home from work and absolutely lose (edit- loose) his ever loving mind.
Screaming about who was in there? Who did that? And getting totally out of control.
I would simply say "we're not allowed in our own living room?" And he'd storm off cussing to himself. Then I escalated. I got some of the same models and rebuilt them wrong (his were safely hidden and unharmed) and leave them around the house. He would start to lose (edit- loose) it and id show him the docket and box showing i had bought it, I "had no idea where his was" then I'd replace his on the shelf like nothing happened.
Bill and Jess told me after I left they continued messing with him in my absence. So was it petty and childish? Oh completely.
But it was so much fun 😁
