'[I] covered my father's whole house in ants': Guy's plan to get back at Dad for being too controlling backfires attracting colonies of ants


Sometimes, revenge plans can have unexpected consequences that make the whole story significantly more entertaining. We know that in a perfect world, our plotting and scheming will go according to plan. But as we know all too well on this site, this is by no means a perfect world. Plans can backfire, and in this case, they backfired gloriously.    This dude shared his story via this thread on Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit. He prefaced his tale of vengeance with some background about his recent job, which requires him to travel the world and thankfully paid enough for him to finally move out from under his controlling, overprotective father's nose. The only caveat to this job is that while the position is totally legal, the Redditor cannot reveal the name of his company to anyone, especially nosy family members like his Dad.    After repeatedly trying to explain his situation to his father to no avail, his Dad decided to snoop around and essentially stalk his son's every move. This meant that even though the Redditor finally moved into his own place, it still felt like his father was breathing down his neck. On top of that, his father still believed that what his son was doing for a living must have been shady. So, the son decided to play a little trick on him by planting packets of sugar all over his father's house, hoping to freak out his Dad when he discovered them. However, that isn't exactly what went down. That's because a giant colony of ants came across the packets of sugar first and the Redditor's Dad had to get an exterminator involved. Oh well! That's what you get for snooping, I guess.   Keep scrolling below for the full story. When you're finished, check out these top choosing beggars of the week!
