We’ve been in stitches this morning. Watching this video on repeat.
And we had to share this with you – the greatest break up ballad EVER.
Clearly it’s a joke – we don’t condone her actions. And we know that it’s not actually true – Rachel Bloom is a writer, actress and comedian and this video is just one of her hilarious pieces of fiction. But that doesn’t mean we haven’t already looked for the song on iTunes this morning. Yes, it’s there
She’s certainly got revenge covered.
What is the best revenge story you have heard? Ever taken revenge on a past lover or friend?

I took weed killer spray, and sprayed ‘cheat’ into his beautiful green front lawn in big tall letters that could clearly be read from the street. It took about a week for the sprayed grass to die and then it was really clear. Like an advertisement.

Ohhhh, I used to live on a major road from the freeway into the CBD of Melbourne and one of my neighbours clearly did the wrong thing by his girl – she spraypainted in huge writing on the sidewalk outside his place “cheater” with an arrow pointing to his front door. It was still visible nine months later when I moved house!

have you seen his response one where he posts pictures of her huge tits on the internet?
Hilaaarious.

I was thinking if I have ever sort revenge on some one and I can honestly say I haven’t… It just seems like another form of bullying to me…. And don’t get me wrong I’ve had some shitty boyfriends who deserved to be bullied but I guess I just don’t think like that… My sister on the other hand is an evil genius!!! Prawns in the curtain rods, phone numbers on personals websites, photos of toothbrushes in toilets. Seriously don’t piss that woman off!

An easy revenge trick (and not too psych ladyish). My mate got fed up of her boyfriend paying more attention to his huge tv constantly watching sport. She left, fairly amicanly, but sneaked in the next day and stole all the remote controls.
I dud think about putting hair removal cream in my ex’s hair gel when he cheated on me, but decided that would be a bit too nasty. Instead I moved on, and found the confidence he’d sucked out of me. And when he was crying to his friends that he’d lost his soulmate, I knew I was never meant to be with him, and could never go back. Best revenge ever!

He left me for another girl after cheating unbeknownst to me. He left with her for 1 week trip to the snow. Before I moved out I sprinkled mustard seed on his couch, bed, and carpet then gave it a really good soak with a water spray bottle. Bit of a garden happening when he got home!

I have three particularly effective, if nasty ones, I still get a laugh out of them after all these years;
#1 – Friend’s boyfriend said he was going camping with mates for the weekend. Nothing unusual about that, happened a few times a year. Only one weekend one of said mates turned up at her house and said he hadn’t seen the guy in months, that he thought she had broken up with him as he’d been seen with the new cute blonde receptionist from his office.
So she goes around to his house while he’s “camping” one weekend, and cuts the crotch out of every pair of trousers he owns. Threw them in the bath, turned the water on, locked the front door and threw the key away. Terrace house, bathroom upstairs. You can guess what he came home to…:-)
#2 – Couple at Rose Bay – he was having affairs all over the place, wife knew nothing (or said she didn’t). One day she comes home to find he’s moved out. A few weeks later he sends her a letter (before email !!) saying he’s living in the USA, has met “the one” and won’t be coming back. She was to sell all his gear (stereo, car, etc.) and send him the money.
She sold everything except the car for a fair price, then had an idea. She put an ad in the Trading Post for, I think, an E-Type Jag in “mint condition”, for $1 or near offer. Guy who was taking her ad over the phone couldn’t believe his luck – he shot straight down there and bought it. Wife sent $1 in an evelope to husband as the full proceeds of the sale. Oh, he tried to sue her but absolutely nothing he could do., Car was worth conservatively $50K !
#3 Woman sees cheating husband’s BMW coupe, completely by accident, in the driveway of a house she was driving past. Then sees attractive woman go into house, greeted at the door by HER husband rather “affectionately”. Now, this woman’s Father worked for one of the large concrete suppliers at the time, so she got a small Minicrete truck, backed it up to his car at 2am and FILLED the coupe with quick-setting concrete !!
How do I know these ? Well, I used to be a Family Court Lawyer…:-)

hope they all got away with it, you certainly have to give them points for creativity! I like #2 best – guy really must have been stupid.

I have a feeling someone got caught cheating in my neighborhood. This was a couple of years ago now but someone had hung up a string of A4 signs with lost dog written on them and a mobile number along with a picture of a bloke!

All you guys are a*holes.

It’s almost 20 years ago now, but it still gives me the giggles when I think about it. My live in boyfriend cheated on me whilst on a ski trip,which I found out about before he got home.
So I very calmly got some tubes of super-glue and put plenty of it around the inside of the every one of the 250 CD cases he had, and then put the CD back in its case – firmly glued in, and destined never to play out-loud again. He apparently discovered it at his housewarming party with his new ski bunny girlfriend when he went to put some music on….
From my experience, if you ever feel the need to do it, revenge is always a dish best served cold, from a distance and in the form of something subtle that comes as a complete surprise to the recipient.
But the best revenge of all is a result that is good for your own heart and soul – and that is moving onwards and upwards without so much as a glance back.

AWW it got removed!! How sucky! The dicks were blurred.

I agree that the best revenge is a life lived well. However, my best revenge (not really revenge…) was turning up to a party of a mutual friend and meeting my ex with his new girlfriend. I also had lost loads of weight and felt FABULOUS! It helped that all our mutual friends thought that he had been a dick and were so supportive – in fact when they walked in one of them very quietly said ‘Woof’! I know it’s not nice, but it made me happy at the time!
Came face to face with the new girl in the bathroom, smiled and put on my lipstick and brushed my hair without smearing it all over my face. It would have killed me to let them know I was rattled. Ex boyfriend wouldn’t leave me alone but I was friendly and polite and moved away each time. God, it felt good!
loading...
I *wish* I had pictures of my ex’s tiny dick. Because it genuinely was tiny…and no woman deserves to be treated the way he treated me. I’d consider it a public service, actually.

My brother got the last laugh on my ex. He pissed in one of his bottles of booze.

The most epic revenge song has to be this one!

Someone in our street was definitely cheated on last year.
One morning, a white station wagon was parked on the road and across the side (all panels) in red spray paint and HUGE letters was ‘CHEATER, HOPE SHE’S WORTH IT’
Ouch.
loading...
Not that this is an honourable revenge story, but its still revenge.
A guy I used to know had this wicked sports car that he loved to pieces but he got it cheap, because it needed some serious panel work on the driver door.
The previous owner couldnt bear to look at it, because his now ex had got jack of his affairs, and drove his car to the local carpark. She then repeatedly opened the drivers door into a lamp post, until she was a little more calm.
Unfortunately the replacement door was hard to come accross because the car was fairly unique.
Personally I wouldnt do anything of the sort, but that revenge meant my friend got a very decent price for a fixer-up-er car

OMGod!!!
Soooo funny!!!!!!!

Looking Good is the best revenge. Ex boyf. years ago. He cheated on me – first time anyone had really broken my heart. Me – heart broken, Him – sleeping and dating the new chick. I kept my composure and acted very mature. So mature that he invited me to his birthday party (which new chick was also attending). As I had been grieving and crying for 3 months had eaten very little and had lost lots (just enough to look fabulous!) of weight. I rocked up to that party, looked incredible (well I was only 23!) everyone stared, I felt like a cool, gorgeous ex. Heaps of his friends tried to crack onto me, I maintained composure, left early with the biggest smile on my face. I could feel the new chicks eyes glaring at me all night (she, not so fabulous!). I still drive past that pub and smile – its been about 15 years! I know its conceited but It was a great feeling.

I always thought the best revenge is being the better person.
loading...
Yeah, but that’s no fun, is it?

I am not the revenge type. When my ex and I broke up, my brother tried to get me to take his Xbox which I bought him while we were together, or pour water through it. I couldn’t do it, it felt too petty.
Luckily I got the dog.
When my brother left his first chef job, he caught brim at the river and threw the fish into the air conditioning unit outside the restaurant. They had to close the whole building for about 3 days before they found the smell.

My ex whom i had lived with for 18months (his house, his mortgage) had been cheating on me, i had no clue. One day when i got home from work, he wasnt there, his clue, no phonecall, no note not anything. This was 17years ago, so before everyone had a mobile. I was beside myself with worry! Couldnt ring his parents as they werent speaking. After 2 days, thought to check is passbook to see if he had been using the bank account (before internet banking) and yes he had….tracked down one of his friends who no doubt told the gutless shit to sort it out. came home to find a note asking me to move out.
so….my girlfriend had heard of the best revenge trick, so she came down with a bottle of wine to help me pack up & some prawns…the shells went in the curtain rods.
I have never had any feedback on if he found it, but it would have HAD to stink rotten! LOL.
BUT…the best revenge was that I brokenheartedly, more so than leaving that mongrel, had to leave our beloved ridgy. But she got out the yard, found her way to mums house about 5 kms away ( i used to drive her there a few times a week) and I kept her. Hidden from him for years before he found out. apparently he was shattered when she went missing, thought she had been taken for dog fighting, rang and reported to the pound and the cops. Was really pissed when he saw me 3 years later driving with her hanging out the window. THAT was the BEST revenge EVER….As i always say, i didn’t take her…she chose who she wanted to be with….i just honoured it.

Best story that you kept the dog!

The best revenge story I heard was a friend who was dating a big macho rugby playing guy. Anyway she found out he was cheating and having an affair… blah blah blah… It all got very ugly.
She got revenge by putting glitter through all of his pockets of every piece of clothing he had. And you know what glitter is like- it never goes away.
About a year later I heard his friends were still saying, “ummmm, mate, there’s some glitter in your eyebrow…”

To quote Demetri Martin “Glitter is the herpes of craft supplies.”

Haha. Gold!!!

This one’s for you Monique

Haas! Lucky no one was in the lunchroom when I started playing that one! Good for giggles tho

Ooh, revenge stories!
I have one.
An ex two years ago left me around Christmas for a guy she met on the internet, but never in person. She’d been talking to this guy for months before she “broke up” with me – she seemed confused over what “break up” meant though, and she decided she wanted to keep sleeping with me. Anyway, I was ok with the break up, I considered her to be a really good friend, but I considered it valid to warn her about trusting someone so easily that she’d not met anywhere but on the internet. I copped the jealous ex-boyfriend rant, and left it alone, and she kept sleeping with me anyway, all the while chatting up this other guy on the internet.
She stayed with me over christmas, and this other guy found out, got really jealous, told her he wasn’t interested anymore, and she got really upset. Well, I didn’t like people making my friends upset, and I genuinely just wanted to see her happy, so I emailed him telling him it was strictly platonic (it was a lie, we had some of the hottest sex ever AFTER we’d broken up than we’d had while we were together), and I told him that I had no intention of coming between the two. That seemed to satisfy him, but appearances were deceiving
He INSTRUCTED her that if she ever wanted something serious with him, she’d have to stop hanging out with me. Fair enough, I was happy to stop sleeping with her, because technically it was cheating. We agreed on that, but then suddenly she wasn’t hanging out with me anymore. I asked her what was up, and she said we couldn’t be friends at all.
THAT pissed me off. So I sent this guy a new email, telling him the truth of the matter. Anyway, long story short, she’s still single, hates my guts, and I don’t really give a crap. I didn’t mind that she wanted to see someone else, that was never my problem. My revenge was for making light of what I thought was a close friendship. I was with another girl inside of a month.
loading...
Did she ever meet this Internet guy in person?
loading...
Not as far as I know. Not while I knew her. It’s been a few years now since all that went down, so between then and now, I couldn’t say. Our relationship was very casual, but our friendship was very close. I didn’t care that she wanted to see someone else, I did care that she’d burn our friendship over it.
loading...
How would he even know what she was up to unless she told him herself! I can’t believe anyone would be stupid enough to obey someone that they’ve never even met!
loading...
As far as I could tell, this guy was particularly insecure and paranoid. As for her, she appeared to have convinced herself she was in love with him. I didn’t understand it myself, and like I said, I tried to caution her, but she accused me of being jealous, so I left it alone.
loading...
Sounds like you dodged a bullet, Marty!

sounds like you might have helped HER dodge an even worse bullet …

It’s funny, but I have a feeling the reaction would be very different if it was a male comedian who wrote a song about posting naked pictures of his ex online.
I’ve heard a lot of revenge stories, but honestly I find them all pretty sad and pathetic (and in some cases extremely disturbing).
loading...
I’ve heard a lot of revenge stories and I think most of them fall into the category of urban legends. Women cutting all their ex’s pants legs off and selling the ex’s BMW for $100.
But I love the one above from fairy princess about the glitter, it is just cute.

I scored a very nice lounge suite thanks to revenge. It was worth $1500 and she sold it to me for $200 to piss her ex off (this was years ago). He wasn’t happy but I helped her out as he was knocking her around. Serve him right, the asshole.
