Farmer Sticks It To The Government

As someone in the comments pointed out; the only thing that's more freaking awesome than seeing someone stick it to an organization like the HOA, is seeing someone stick it to the dang government! This farmer handled their situation beautifully. Job well done.

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge + Join u/yoloswagernaut • 9h 1 This was a comment from another user on r/gifs. A city near me had a farmer holding out as the city expanded. The city wouldn't let him sell his land zoned commercial, since it was a farm. While completely surround by commercial development. The city wanted him to sell the land zoned for agriculture. Basically to let some dev bulldozer the fields and flip it for commercial space. Easily 10x. Settled into a stalemate.

2.

Text - The area became more and more developed. Housing encroached of the back of the property. The farmer getting old and getting tired of this shit, not wanting to pass this fight on to his kids came up with a plan. The property had been used for soybean and farming corn to this point. Not really a burden to his neighbors. He applied for received proper licensing from the state for a hog confinement lot. In case you don't know that is where they keep tens of thousands of hogs before they are b

3.

Text - He did. He had 400 hogs delivered to what at this point was one of the busiest roads in town. The locals nearly lynched the city council. In less than a week the city backtracked a nearly 20 year feud and let him sell his farm for the fair commercial rate as he had originally bargained for. 1.4k 38 Share

Class Bully Gets Exposed For Cheating

Bullies are the worst. This particular scenario involving a class bully has that sweet, fairytale ending though. The bully gave their classmate a hard time for a monologue that took quite a bit of courage to present to the rest of the class. The thing is, the bully very clearly took a shortcut on their own book report, and only watched the movie. So, their classmate asked just the kind of question that exposed the bully's cheating to the rest of the class. Everyone just needs to play nice.

1.

Text - r/pettyrevenge + Join u/georgiemaebbw • 30d 1 1 Nice "book" report class Bully. I'll expose your cheating. So this happened in the early 90's. I was in high school and there was a girl who decided I was easy pickings to bully, let's call her Becky. I was shy, naieve, didn't have the wit to say anything back. I didn't have a lot of friends (I spent most of my spare time reading in my bedroom). So she was constantly saying stuff derogatory to me within ear shot to hurt me.

2.

Text - In English class, we had to pick a novel and do a presentation on it. I read "I know why the caged bird sings" by Maya Angelou. I did a monologue in first person. I thought it was great, it took A LOT of courage for me to do that monologue. I did ok. Teacher gave me a high score. Enter Becky. This was a year or two after the movie "Bram Stoker's Dracula" was released. Becky did her presentation on the book she read, "Dracula". It was very obvious that she didn't read the book, only watche

3.

Text - At the end of the presentation, we were allowed to ask questions. She'd already planted questions with her followers, the Becky Posse. They asked, what she thought, would be great thoughtful questions that would show how well she knew and understood the movie, ahem, I mean book. I raised my hand, she rolled her eyes. "what did you think of the importance of 'The Bloofer Lady'?" (I know Lucy was the Bloofer Lady, but I didn't recall it being mentioned in the movie, only the book.)

4.

Text - She went as white as Vampire Lucy, then as red with anger as Gary Oldman's armour. The teacher, having already known she was presenting the movie and didn't read the book, did a poor job at hiding her smirk. It was awesome. Becky stammered out a weak generic answer, having no clue who The Bloofer Lady was. Then sat down. I could feel the daggers in the back of my head. I didn't care. The knowing smirk of the teacher gave me so much empowerment. I never let anything Becky said after that g

5.

Text - =Epilogue= She tired once more to intimidate me. She told a Posse follower, within ear shot of course, that she was going to beat me up after school. A boy (handsome, popular) informed her that I was a martial artist, who had won competitions. She huffled that she could still take me. I'm guessing she second guessed herself, and asked around and confirmed that I was indeed a martial artist. She never bothered me again.

Double-Take Inducing Images of Warped Perspective

Entitled Mom Demands Art for Cheap, Doesn't Get It

Sometimes entitled people have a hard time understanding that other people's time is valuable, or that they like to be paid for their work. In this case it was an entitled mom who thought she could get a wall painted for free just because this person did the same thing for a closer person. For another one, here's an entitled mom who lost it over some free seashells.

1.

Text - Hey! This is that you were the one wno painted the lovely art in said room I showed it to my daughter and she really loved it. It would mean so much to her if you would be willing to paint one for her too I'm glad she liked it 1 And I would love to I hould have some time free next weekend if that works for you?

4.

Text - Thank you so much No problem From what I can see it shouldn't take me much more than 6 hours but since 4 it would take be around three hours travel time I will have to break it up into two days if that is okay? No that is fine as long as you get it done Since I already have the paint I won't charge you for it But you will need to cover my time and fuel tho What no that's not right said you did hers for free I did but daughter and I did it for her birthday is my God

5.

Text - Plus she only lives a few minutes away from me That's not fair Do you still want it FINE How much £165 should cover it That's ridiculous! Way too much It would cost me about £65 just on travel cost alone £100 is for my time Il do £65 And that's be being nice That should be more than enough just to paint some flowers on the wall

6.

Text - I'm sorry I really can't do it for £65 Your so selfish You know I'm a single parent and you try and charge me £165 for painting a wall It is because I know your a single parent I didn't charge you for the paint aswell With the paint it would have been closer to £200 Bullshit Your just being a bitch £65 final offer No were done here

Uncle Bankrupts Previous Mean Employer

Oh man, this guy literally brought the walls in around his previous employer, until he'd basically starved him of hiring opportunities. This revenge seems cold and calculated, and like it wasn't rushed. Patience can absolutely pay off in the long run.

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge + Join u/bleedybutts • 2y Uncle bankrupts his previous employer Not sure if this is petty or pro or whatever. You be the judge My uncle is an Indian doctor. In the 90s there was a massive doctors shortage in Australia so the government gave him citizenship. Unfortunately you still had to sit 3 expensive exams to work as a doctor in Australia. These exams cost thousands of dollars, only happened twice a year, had limited sitting spots/times and had arbitrary pass/fail marks. S

Text - He decided since he was already pushing 40 + had a family, he would apply to become a GP (family physician) instead of applying to be a surgeon like most of his teachers had suggested. At the time many desperate foreign doctors where applying for GP residency. They would essentially get treated like crap. They would be forced to work unpaid overtime. They would not be given proper study time or leave to sit mandatory exams. They would pocket the meals/ accommodation/study/leave allowances

3.

Text - When my uncle graduated, he applied for GP training in a practice that is located within an Indian ethnic enclave so that he would have access to religious food/ schools etc for the kids. Sure enough this practice engaged in all of the above fuckery. My uncle would work every single Saturday shift. During his dedicated 'study' time he would have to come into work. He got reprimanded for not overcharging patients in line with their framework. Worst of all, when my aunt was really sick and

Surprise, surprise foreign trained doctors actually work well and care about their patients if you actually care about them and give them appropriate wages/li

His old teacher tried to sell up his practice to other doctors but no one would purchase it given how successful my uncle's 3 surrounding practices were. He then tried to sell it to my uncle who refused to buy even at a ridiculously low sale price. Instead he waited for the bank to re-possess his old teachers clinic and then purchased it for a bi

6.

Text - Edit 1: Thanks for all the comments and the gold. Im happy my uncle has brought happiness/justice (+/- lady) boners to you all. He is such a generous guy in real life. Im sure he'd be really happy if he knew what reddit even was. As for a follow up. He didnt even expand any further apart from those 3 clinics. Im pretty sure the land value of the clinics is worth more than the doctors business in them nowadays. Sorry if I didnt read comment. There are so many discussions your going on. For

Petty Injustices that People are Still Salty About

As an adult, you have to deal with some pretty disappointing garbage, but for some reason the real stuff that keeps you up at night, seething with rage, is the thought that in 4th grade you got pinned with calling another kid a butthead when in fact it was actually Dylan.

Mechanic Won't Do His Job, Man Takes Revenge

This guy's a genius. To make matters even better, it sounds like him and the mechanic ended up sorting out their differences and actually working well together. Love to hear that.

I don't follow this subreddit regularly but he is an avid follower and stated my story is worthy. So l'm here to see if he was right.

I would spend my weekends either with my grandparents and uncle working on science projects or dragging my dad outside to help me fix my car (which consisted of him telling me that he would help once I got it taken apart). Those "figure it out" lessons were the probably the greatest gift he could've given me

One Monday morning shortly after taking charge of the commo shop, one of my soldiers came to me with a problem he couldn't figure out and asked if I could come help him. I agreed and followed him over to the BFV that was giving him problems. After a few hours of troubleshooting we finally traced the problem to the BFV's slipring. We double and t

5.

Text - So, I went to the mechanics to get there help so we could fix the problem. This is when I learned the mechanics didn't like the commo shop. I was essentially told by the motor chief to f-off and the slipring is a commo issue and it's the commo shop's job to fix it, not theirs. I was pissed at the response and tried to insist we needed his help. However, I was promptly shut down and told to pound sand. At this point, I was beyond pissed, I tried the official way, I even swallowed my pride

6.

Text - Once I got back to the motor pool, I had my guys locate every extension cord they could find around the office because I could only find one in my garage and help me run power out to the BFV that we were going to have to fix ourselves. Meanwhile, I also had 2 of the guys run to the HQ and find me two of largest empty coffee cans they could find. Tended up having to tell them twice because the first time they thought I was joking.. they couldn't understand why I needed a coffee can of all

Text - When they returned with coffee cans I had everything in place. I had power, compressed air, tools, and a place to neatly put all of the bolts, nuts, and washers I was about to remove.

Once everything was tidied up, I went off to find the owner of the BFV and let him know his commo issue was fixed but he should probably have a mechanic look at his BFV because I had to disassemble some (and by some I meant "most") of the vehicle in order to get to t

However, I was having none of that, I simply shook my head and told him "It was a "mechanical issue" now and it wasn't my job, I asked for your help in the beginning and was told no because it wasn't your job. I'm just a commo guy I didn

Girlfriend Complains About Looks, Man Suggests Surgery

The folks of Reddit have spoken and are in collective agreement that this dude was out of line. Not only did he suggest that his girlfriend use makeup, but he also threw out a bit about her getting very serious surgery on her face. That's just making her insecurities all the worse, man.

1.

Text - Text - 61 1 AITA for suggesting to my girlfriend she start wearing makeup again? Asshole My (24M) girlfriend "Maya" (26F) is the most beautiful woman on Earth, literally perfect from top to bottom. She was drafted by a really big modeling agency in LA while we were in college (how we met) and she made an unbelievable amount of money, enough to pay off all her student loans and buy us a house. We also have a 1yo son.

2.

Text - Text - Like I said, I love everything about this woman – the way she dresses and does her hair, her perfume that smells amazing, and the confidence in how she carries herself is just so attractive. She's also incredibly smart, much smarter than me. Last year, though, Maya's parents died in an unexpected accident, and while it wasn't surprising to me that she was grieving at first, I was, however, surprised at just how bad it was, and before you call me TA for saying that, I had reason for

3.

Text - Text - The main issue here is normally when Maya is upset about something, she will dress up and do her hair and makeup and go out to make herself feel better, but since the pandemic started, she hasn't been able to go out, and so she stopped doing her makeup entirely. She'll still braid her hair and wear nice outfits around the house, but I am concerned about her not doing her makeup.

4.

Text - Text - Another concerning thing, too is she basically stopped eating. Once I realized that she wasn't eating any of the lunches I was packing for her work, I started making more heavy dinners every night like pastas, jambalaya, enchiladas, etc. otherwise she will try to live off nothing but peanut butter and celery. I can't make her eat at work, but I can at least make sure she eats dinner every night.

Text - Text - This all came to a head just a few hours ago - I made her steak and potatoes, and as we were eating, she started talking about how she wanted to get cosmetic surgery to get rid of the bags under her eyes. I told her she could always just start wearing makeup again, because she knows how to conceal that issue, anyway, right? I also suggested that if we were gonna pay for plastic surgery, why not something like the "mommy makeover" package l've heard about, because that would actuall

Text - Text - Maya just got really quiet, and after a really long and awkward silence, she told me she wanted to go to bed. After putting our son to bed, she went into our room and locked the door. When I knocked, she yelled at me to leave her alone, so I went to sleep in the guest room. When I tried to get her to eat this morning, she just snapped at me to leave her alone, and then went for a walk. I need to know, AITA?

Text - Text - bobi2393 • 1d • Asshole Enthusiast [6] 1 Award Lol, YTA bud. Your headline buried the lede; suggesting "mommy makeover" surgery to your partner is a sensitive topic at best, and suggesting it to someone in the midst of depression, who already sounds like she's suffering from insecurity...hoo boy! The only mitigating factor in your favor is that you might be so idiotic that it's hard to hold you fully accountable for your insensitivity. Reply 878

Text - athshe2 • 1d • Partassipant [2] YTA. You didn't just suggest she wear makeup again. You suggested she have a much more serious plastic surgery than what she suggested. She's obviously feeling concerned about her weight and you just validated all her insecurities. Reply 3.3k ...

Text - Text - niccagetheelephant8 • 1d • Certified Proctologist [25] YTA but I am concerned about her not doing her makeup. Makeup takes a long time to do. It is completely understandable for her to not wear makeup if she cant go anywhere in it any way. Her not eating, however, is concerning. She is grieving. Even if somone didnt have a good relationship with their parents they may still be incredibly upset about their death. Everyone reacts differently and it seems like her grief may be causing

Text - Text - dz89d61 • 1d • Asshole Enthusiast [6] YTA and not even for the reason you think. Instead of trying to make her feel better about the one issue she confined in you she wants to fix through cosmetic surgery, not only did you suggest she covers it up confirming her insecurity but you also added to it by pointing out other things she could fix Reply 1 75 ...

Text - Text - wonderouscamille • 1d YTA-You tanked your relationship, and what you said was shitty and cruel. I think your heart is a tiny bit in the right place, especially since your trying to get your girlfriend to eat. However, that should be your only priority not suggesting a mommy makeover and that she wears makeup. She opened up to you about her insecurity and you told her forget about that worry getting other parts of her body done. Even if she hadn't tragically lost both parents and ha

You could get a tummy tuck, lip filler, boob job..stares into distance, thinking about boob job..god honey, now wouldn't that really make you feel about your body?" ^ this is how it played in my head.

It sounds like your gf is depressed, and what's ~concerning- is that instead of trying to talk to her about what's going on in terms of her mental health, you're instead more concerned about making sure she maintains her physical looks.

Text - Text - throwaway0413589874 • 1d • Partassipant [1] Dude YTA 1. Her and her parents had a bad relationship but she is still entitled to grieve, as she is grieving the possible future relationship she could have had with them. 2. Hey I've been working from home for 6 months and wear PJs all day and don't brush my hair or wear a bra. Why does she have to wear makeup? 3. Being stuck inside does take a toll on someone's mental health, and on top of grieving more than likely makes it worse. 4.

Text - Text - calyxium • 21h YTA - You didn't say "hey why don't you try wearing makeup again to make yourself feel better?" Your girlfriend expressed an insecurity about a physical flaw she feels she has and you basically said "Oh no you should fix this WAY BIGGER flaw instead!" You did a lot of work to convince us you think she's beautiful. Time to apologise and go convince her. Her not wearing makeup and eating less could be a sign that she's struggling with depression but it could also just

Text - Text - LitChick2000• 22h ΥΤΑ And you are shallow AF. Never mind you saying how much you love her. Actions you describe are not loving. Your are objectifying her. She lost her parents. Just because they weren't talking for some time, doesn't mean that both parties didn't care for one another, or that she did not want to re- establish a healthy relationship with her parents. Sudden loss of loved ones like this is absolutely devastating. Reply ... >>

Text - Text - sthetic • 21h • Partassipant [2] YTA. She became so upset at her parents' death that she stopped wearing makeup. Therefore, if she starts wearing makeup again, she will stop being sad about the death of her parents???? Is that your logic? The loss of appetite and self-care is a SYMPTOM of her depression. You're just focused on concealing the symptom. She needs grief counselling or something. Reply ...

Text - Text - ursadminor • 21h YTA. She was talking about one insecurity, you reinforced it and added a new one ("yeah you have bags but why don't you just wear make up to fix it? The real problem is that tummy!"O). Plus, please bear in mind that damaged familial relationships can still leave you shattered when the person dies. You can suffer guilt, grief for the relationship you could have had, confusion about how to feel etc. Plus if your child is only 1, you might want to consider if post nat
