I know that the start of a new year is supposed to be all about improvements and resolutions to be a better person, but let's be real. That kind of thing doesn't happen overnight, and sometimes being on your lowest vibration is entertaining. It can't be denied that the internet adores a tale of petty revenge, so why not begin 2024 with multiple stories about how Twitter users got their own back? 

While we can't condone mining this thread for ideas, there are a few things mentioned here that would work like a dream on somebody who deserved it. They are also worth simply enjoying during an idle scroll session. It's up to you which path you take, unlike the examples below who have already taken the path of satisfying vengeance for all manner of different slights. Those in relationships, take note: many of these tales begin with somebody cheating.

    Bev @bellevuebev. 1d Replying to @fuzzymittens and @lscain3834 As a teenager, I decided to sew closed (via the sewing machine) the fly on several pair of my step-dad's cotton boxer shorts. Reason: he was a bit annoying and I had skills. (I did not get in trouble and he was the first of a few step-dads.)

Before I gave him his belongings back on the front lawn ala Angela Bassett Waiting to Exhale style, I carefully separated his gaming console and games and left them all in tact. Why? Because I played every single one o

    Lindsay Fickas @lindsayfickas. 1d Once, I ordered a macchiato at a coffee shop and the barista condescendingly said, "you won't like it. It's not super sweet like it is at Starbucks." And you know what? I didn't like it. But I still ordered it every time I visited that coffee shop until it shut down.
