'He called their bluff': Avocado farmer teams up with corporate attorney wife after electrical line ignites his crops

This farmer may have lost his avocado farm, but he didn't give up. U/SomeoneYouDontKnow70 shared this tale of their brother in law's excellent way of getting what he deserved after losing his livelihood.

Farming is one of the most difficult jobs out there, whether you're raising cattle or growing crops. As a farmer, you have to be dedicated to your crops year round, like this guy, who grew avocados in California. Unfortunately for him, nature decided to mess with his harvest. It seems like a freak accident caused power lines to fall on a fence around his crops. That fence caught on fire and ruined all the crops. Instead of giving up, this farmer decided he would just rebuild. But the electric company responsible for the fallen line were pretty adamant about denying any wrongdoing. If only they'd just worked with this farmer, maybe they wouldn't have had to go through all the hassle of a lawsuit.

Check out the entire story below, as well as a few additional details the OP added to the post to flesh out the tale. Then, these people had cheating partners with the worst reasoning for their infidelity, like one woman who "cheated and... blamed the great American eclipse of August 2017."
