There's nothing more frustrating than losing access to your favorite shows just before the finale is released. With all the tension built up from the show's entirety, few people on this earth deserve to be denied their season finale–except a cheating ex-husband. 

The man in our next story may not know why he's had the misfortune of missing out on his favorite shows, but because of the betrayals of his last marriage, he'll only be watching children's TV from now on. According to the ex-wife's petty bestie, there are few luxuries that a cheating ex can remain privy to after a divorce… and free-reign of the communal Netflix account is NOT included in this alimony. 

After noticing that the dirtbag ex-husband was still using their old streaming account, one woman's best friend went above and beyond to get the pettiest, most benign revenge possible, by reverting his watch settings to never exceed TV-Y ratings. Scroll to read the entire hilarious tale of how one woman's pettiness meant that some guy out there is deliriously watching Peppa Pig, wondering how he hit rock bottom.

    My best friend got cheated on by her husband of almost a decade. I gave her my netflix login for her smart tv, after the netflix ban she told me she could still get in and watch sometimes.

    But in agreement to the divorce, cheater got the TV. I got a notification of a new location login. So I went in and just put child TV-Y only ratings can be accessible through that channel. I could change the password but I would have to set my elderly mother up again so this is the path of least resistance and pettiness.

    catsandtequila · 2 days ago I love this. This is truly poetic. Reply Share 1.5k chameleonhalo OP 2 days ago I would LOVE to do so much more, but she wants peace. I am bike commuter, and when the relationship was over, she told me "You know he actually hates bicyclist right?" and said "Well, I hate cheaters so I guess that makes us even then."

    Supremagorious 1 day ago take a look at what they're watching and set everything to 2 or 3 minutes before they end so when it auto plays it pops in shortly before it's time to skip to the next episode so if they're not paying attention they end up skipping through several episodes or if they are paying attention they have to rewind every time it moves to the next episode.

    D Fun-Entertainment421 2 days ago You should go in and favorite every show and movie centered around infidelity. Start each one just a few minutes in so it floods his "just watched" feed.

    curveofthespine · 2 days ago If there is a series he really likes, cut him off the day the new series is to start. 72 Reply Share Keevtara 2 days ago Conversely, wait until he's getting close to the end of a season, and then cut him off.

    MescalineYeti . 1 day ago If they live in a house (not a townhome, or condo a proper house) go on Craigslist and search for "clean fill dirt" depending on where the dirt is you find on Craigslist relative to where you want it delivered there may be a delivery fee. You're gonna want to go pay that in cash.
    via MescalineYeti

    They don't care who you are or if you live at the address you want it delivered to, they just want the delivery fee, and an address. They'll deliver usually 40 cubic yards of clean fill dirt to that address whenever you tell them would be best for you. Basically either first thing in the morning (like 4 or 5 am) or the end of the day (4 or 5 pm).

    They pull up look at the address, and dump it. In the street. In front of the house. They don't knock. Or call. Nothing. They dump it and leave. 40 cubic yards of dirt is a lot. Especially if you don't need it, it is kinda a problem.

    If they don't live in a house, fine. Head to your local "Adult Store", go to the magazines and pick out the one you feel would be the least flattering for people to believe the has a subscription for. All you want is the subscription card.
    via MescalineYeti
  • 21
    Fill the subscription card out with the person's name, their street, city, state, zip. BUT make sure to not use their house number, or apartment number, use one of their neighbor's instead.

    They will then see who's name is on it. Now the first month, if it's really weird, they'll just throw it away. They'll tell everyone in the neighborhood they talk to, but they throw it away. But 3 or 4 months into it, they'll get upset, and complain to the apt manager, the postman etc... and the neighbors.

    Lets GetJigglyWiggly 19 hr. ago This is absolutely poetic, this is the right way to do petty. Severely inconvenience the person but not causing physical harm to their property or the person. You have plausible deniability, and there's very few ways the person can explain it away without making themselves look like an one way or another.
