20 petty ways people got back at their exes: 'Put non-vegan meat in her sandwich'

Some breakups do not call for maturity. Some exes are so deserving of payback that it would be a grave injustice if you chose not to do something. 

Obviously, the sensible thing to do following a breakup is to take the high road and to trust that the best revenge is success and happiness. That being said, we cannot expect the anonymous folks from this Reddit thread to do the sensible thing in these situations. We can only expect drama and unnecessary overreactions because, let's be real here, that's what we want to hear about. We don't want to hear about your healthy relationship with your ex. I'm sure it took a lot of maturity and work to get to that place. I'm sure it was a mental and emotional achievement for both of you, but we are not interested in those stories. We are interested in the dude who made his vegan ex eat meat, or the guy who left his ex a special present in the bathroom. We need this because we likely are too anxious and clumsy to pull off any sort of payback like this in our actual lives, so we.need to live vicariously through these bizarre anecdotes.
