ULPT REQUEST Boyfriend cheated. can’t damage our apt or cars. Ideas?
Posted by xOleander@reddit | UnethicalLifeProTips | View on Reddit | 599 comments
While he’s at work tomorrow my sister and brother will be here to help me speed pack and move to my sisters place in the meantime. The dog came with me to our relationship, so I’ll be taking him with me.
I do still have things left to lose in my life so I’m not trying to do anything crazy but I want to get annoying revenge on him. Something that’ll tell him in the back of his head “fucking ex, it has to be her”. I suppose bordering unethical is what I’m looking for.
But I mean I don’t just want to do the whole “sign his number up for spam calls” or something. I do want to Just annoy him. His mom knows Im leaving and she supports me, so I guess I’ve got my revenge there too.
I guess I’m just sad and venting a little. He’s so remorseless about it all. Like he never cared. :/ I don’t want to leave anything behind in terms of of townhouse because I’m still on the lease, and plan on not ruining that while I try to get myself removed.
Any ideas? He’s a minor influencer and owns a small business too.
The more creative or funnier the better. He’s got two phone numbers for work, if I can keep those relentlessly busy with non customers I would love that.

Take one battery out of each remote. Shorten one of the legs of the dryer so it's off balance. Put different times on all the clocks. Take all the bath towels out of the bathroom and into the dryer so if he doesn't find the towels before a shower he's gotta dry off with little towels. Unplug his phone charger or other electronics. Adjust the toilet flush mechanism so it doesn't flush or is always running just a little. Turn off the ice maker in the fridge. Unplug stove/microwave. Shuffle around all the cooking spices or swap them into different bottles. Mix salt into flower or pancake mix or into other spices. Wash his seasoned frying pan. Turn random things upside down like coasters. Fill a cup with water then put something thin but ridgid to put on the top then flip it upside down and gently slide out the thing you had on top. Then when he picks up the cup it will spill everywhere. You could even put some important documents or soldering near the upside down glass so that when he flips it they will get wet or he has to act fat to save them. Put rubber bands on the sink spray nozzle so it'll immediately spray him when he turns on the sink. Loosen the bolts on his bed. Swap the box spring and mattress then remake the bed. Flip the mattress over if it's a one sided mattress and remake the bed. Change one character in the wifi password or network name so non of his devices automatically connect. Point the shower head so it'll spray him in the face when he turns it on. Flip the breakers for the ac(there's usually one in the breaker panel, and another one outside by the ac unit. Turn off the water heater or set the temp to a low level. Loosen the legs on his furniture a little bit. Put his dirty clothes on top of his pillow. Unscrew some light bulbs just enough that they don't turn on. Add bleach to the washing machine tub so his next load off laundry gets bleached. Slightly open any canned drinks so they lose their carbonation. Change the thermostat schedule.
1_pt_4_Dave@reddit
This is amazing, two changes I would make is to take all the batteries, and the battery covers, if you leave half of them, they can move them around as needed, the battery covers and just endlessly annoying when you can’t find them.
The second would be to add Nair to the shampoo bottles, bonus points if there is a spare bottle somewhere that will seem full when he goes to grab the back-up.
Hair grows back, so it’s not permanent. But will send a message.
Pillows are a great target as well, most people are pretty attached to their bed pillow. Either remove stuffing, add stuffing or spray with something rancid, milk is a great option.
INeedAllOfTheCats@reddit
I like the milk in the pillow case!
Ravenonthewall@reddit
Sew dead fish or shrimp in pillow sew it back up and put pillow case back on
Cherrijuicyjuice@reddit
Nah you want to stuff it in the curtain rods so it will never be found
Ravenonthewall@reddit
Yep I’ve read and suggested that on another 2 threads, thought I’d change it up.
BugBugRoss@reddit
Clear nail polish to insulate the battery contacts. No battery will work until scraped off.
Ravenonthewall@reddit

MET1@reddit

Ravenonthewall@reddit
Maybe sew a dead fish in a pillow and sew it back up? That might work
Kaleidoscopic_Skull7@reddit
I once heard about someone putting (non- expired) milk in a spray bottle and going around their cheating ex's house, lightly misting everything fabric ... bed sheets, mattress, curtains, couch, chairs, etc etc... so that once X amount of time had passed, they started to smell rancid for some "unknown" reason.
Ok_Employment_7435@reddit
This is awesome. My ex boyfriend threw a temper tantrum earlier today, and threw a bowl of cereal on me & his room, covering furniture & the carpet. I’m EXCITED that in a few days his room will smell rancid. This is perfect.
art_addict@reddit
I work at a daycare. Can confirm. Fresh milk spilled is nbd. We miss immediately cleaning something? Sweet Jesus. Especially over the weekend. You leave that towel you cleaned up milk with in a bag and it sits? Vomit worth scent. Milk spilled on a sheet you didn’t pull to wash. Regerts
Circular-ideation@reddit
I lurk mostly on this sub, but I had to respond with a heartfelt “thank you for your service at that daycare.”
I can’t imagine. Especially with spilled milk issues on top of human bodily leaks. My first apartment had an undefined odor by the time we moved out, it somehow never occurred to me to clean the breast milk spots out of the carpet when I shot it at my husband from across the room all those times. So I bet that was the whiff. 🤦♀️
art_addict@reddit
I absolutely love my job! Despite some milk mishaps (lessons have been learned! My coteacher found the bag the offending towel was in, smelled it, and ran out of the room and vomited. Then she’s like, “Hey, art_addict, come smell this!” Like girl, I just watched you run and vomit! 🤣)
Seriously though, my kids are my world, they give meaning to my life, and most of the time extra bodily fluids are just nbd 🤷♀️ I’m chronically ill in multiple ways, I’ve had to deal with my own fluids, theirs really aren’t any worse. I keep extra clothes and it’s really just nbd
Nosey_Rosie@reddit
I wonder if thats why the car wash vacuum area always smells like vomit to me? Maybe its also spoiled milk that was cleaned up?
welzybubs@reddit
This is brutal! And I love it!
In_The_Basket@reddit
I wouldn't do the nair in the shampoo. This is a chemical that can have effects on skin. If a bad enough reaction that it requires medical, then that could lead to a lawsuit. (Nair gives me a rash, I don't even want to think of it on my scalp)

Don't forget adding dry rice to any bottles of lotion or moisturizer he uses. Crushing it first makes a little go a long way.
Cherrijuicyjuice@reddit
What does this do?
RudeOrSarcasticPt2@reddit
It's like sand in the Vaseline. Grit and scratch where you want soothing. Plus, the rice absorbs the lotion,and makes it clumpy. Would you put clumpy lotion on your skin?

Toilet one is underrated. Imagine doing a doo then having to let it sit there while you tinker with the flusher 😂
killjoygrr@reddit
Honestly, the only one I would warn against is the bleach in the laundry soap because that could be expensive enough for court.
The others really have no monetary effect unless you go so wild as to make all the food inedible.
The rest are perfectly petty in ways that hit the sweet spot that OP seems to be looking for.
dinkinflickas@reddit
Nah. No way intent could be proven. One of them could have innocently left bleach in the washer because they planned on washing whites but forgot. I say go for the bleach.

The thermostat one pisses me off so bad. I use an older nest and the company no longer updates. It will randomly change throughout the day. I’ll wake up at night really sweaty because the temp is at 78.
daisyvenom@reddit
I had the same problem but mine doesn’t automatically change temperature if I use the Heat+Cool feature. When it has a range to maintain it doesn’t randomly switch to a certain temperature on its own.
CuriousBee789@reddit
And this right there is the #1 reason why my IT hubs has never allowed me to have anything that need the internet to work. Can't even have a fucking smart light bulb, lol.
BeeFree66@reddit
My career was in tech. I refuse to use Smart tech anything. Keep it basic and it will work.
jongscx@reddit
Wait, so you're not allowed to install smart light bulbs but he hasn't set up a Home Assistant instance on a local server and given you a list of compatible hardware?
That's just being lazy, tell him to get on that.
CuriousBee789@reddit
Well, first he's frugal, not lazy. We're also Amazon Vine product testers. So I am going to take the brand that is offered to me for free over purchasing one that is guaranteed compatible with whatever hardware you're speaking of (sorry, this is not my area of expertise and I'm terrible with tech terminology). But even if we wanted to be restricted to certain brands, he is frustrated by the lack of support and upkeep these companies put into maintaining their old apps. Like what happened with the thermostat above. Lss, it's corporate theft and he doesn't want to financially support that. And like I mentioned about, he has multiple issues with smart technology. Cyber security is a huge issue for him too. (*I also misspoke when I said we don't have any smart technology. Amazon has offered us much of their line.... alexa, smart tv, etc. And I sometimes take it, duh. He's not at all happy about even Amazon technology in our home. But he had to compromise with me somewhere.)
jongscx@reddit
Home Assistant is an open-source home automation platform. It emphasizes Local Control and privacy. It would be absolutely trivial for an IT professional to set this up and select hardware that works with it to enable a smart-home without being tethered to/snooped on by a corporation's server.
It's the absolutely opposite of being tied to a brand because it's outside of any brand's ecosystem. It would be the solution to "having Amazon in your house" because it offers a local, self-hosted alternatives to Alexa.
jerrrrrrrrrrrrry@reddit
Google owns Nest now and they're the dirty efffffers that stopped supporting the older ones. That just proved to me again if you think you own modern appliances or cars with smart technologies you're wrong. The tech company can disable your appliance and make you buy a new one. I had to replace my perfectly good, high quality thermostat because the Google CEO needed more money!💰 I didn't buy a Nest.

domdymond@reddit
Remove the toilet wax ring. Kink the icemaker waterline so even when he turns it on it wont work. Swap the hot and cold under rhe sink. Put capsaicin extract in his shoes, spray the furniture with coyote urine. Put water tracing dyes in his pockets so when he washed it dyes his clothes.. Put a pinhole in the sink waterline to it slowly gets wet and moldy under there. Add coyote urine to the toilet bowl. Put dish soap in the base of the dishwasher. Put a bunch of sand and sediment in the hose to the washer so its mostly clogged but still very slowly fills. Pinhole in the waterline between the dishwasher valve and the case break so every time he runs it a little water filles thw bottom of thw dishwasher eventually leading to an expensive fix or replacement. If you cut the wire to thw hot valve in the washing machine it will throw errors in the winter. Puree raw fish and put it down every drain. Including the tub. Its a little far out there but you could remove the grounds in all thw light switches and pigtail a hot wire to thw ground spot so every time he grazes the screw he gets shocked. Listen the screws to everything. Warm up every jar of food a little then tighten the lid as tight as possible and put it back in the fridge so its nearly impossible to open. Bed bugs. Clear fingernail polish on the positive side of everything that takes batteries, let it dry and reinsert the battery. Small holes in pockets. Fish puree in the fridges drip pan. Plug the drain tubes under the back of the fridge so it will slowly leak water into the freezer and/or fridge. Coyote urine in the hvac ducting. loosen the screws to the breaker that goes to the electronics outlets so its intermittently glitch in and eventually burns up the breaker, Its not flammable but a pain to deal with. Coyote urine under the bed. Hide whole sweet potatoes in cheap ziplock bags everywhere when they rot their awful and will blow open the cheap ziplock bag like a time delay stink bomb. Wipe all dishes with watered down dishsoap so everything tastes like soap. Put capsaicin extract on random places he will touch. Put capsaicin in random consiments.

The spice one is too funny. I’d be pissed if I was making a recipe and was looking forward to the food but then it tasted awful because I put the wrong seasoning in there.

Okay. Washing his cast iron may be over the line here. Pretty sure that is illegal, at least in the south.
PrivilegeCheckmate@reddit
That's a damn lye, Yankee!
elbeees@reddit
if properly seasoned, soap won't hurt your cast iron. it's ok to wash it.
raven16342@reddit
Put the pan on a red hot burner and leave it till the pan turns red hot. That will destroy the seasoning.
Hopewellslam@reddit
Honestly unless the soap contains lye the pan is improved by a bit of soap.
BrooklynLodger@reddit
Wash your damned cast iron... Seasoning is not for 'flavor' its a polymerized non-stick surface, you still need to wash it

You know you can wash a seasoned pan right?
In fact you should be washing seasoned pans. Seasoning doesn't was off, burnt food does
ambarcapoor@reddit
Yes, yes... Calm down. It's a joke. I jest. I joke.
Phoebebee323@reddit
Every time I hear someone talk about not washing a seasoned pan I get flashbacks to a Reddit post on the wellthatsucks Reddit where they were upset their mom started washing his pan and ruined the seasoning on part of the pan.
The section that his mom hadn't gotten to had burnt chunks of food on it. Like actual chunks
ambarcapoor@reddit
I think I remember that. 😂 It's hard to fight an established mindset from the 1800...
Hopewellslam@reddit
Yup. Back when we used lye soap it would wreck the seasoning. Now soap is needed and doesn’t harm seasoning.

Put one sock from each pair in a different drawer so he can never find a matching pair but all the socks are technically there. Change the language on his TV remote to Portuguese. Set his alarm 7 minutes fast so he's always slightly early and can never figure out why. Move his toothbrush to a slightly different position every day so he's never sure if he's using the right one. Put the toilet paper roll on backwards. Change his phone autocorrect so "the" becomes "teh" and "okay" becomes "okya". Set all his phone alarms to vibrate only and move them to 3:17am, 3:34am, and 4:02am. Put a single piece of tape over the bottom of his mouse. Change the default browser homepage to Bing. Slightly rearrange his desk so nothing is where he left it but nothing is obviously moved. Set every clock in the house to a different time, all slightly wrong in different directions. Turn all his picture frames 3 degrees clockwise. Put the TV remote in the freezer just this once so when it happens again he'll think he did it himself. Change his wifi network name to "FBI Surveillance Van 3" so his colleagues can see it when they visit. Unfollow three random people he follows on social media so he gradually notices his feed is different but can't pinpoint why. Set his thermostat to Celsius.Put his phone on Do Not Disturb from 6-9pm every day, the exact hours he'd be expecting calls.Put a single googly eye inside his coffee mug so it's only visible when the mug is empty.Put a small piece of clear tape over the TV sensor so the remote works only sometimes.Set his GPS default to avoid highways. Put one of his shoes somewhere slightly implausible, not hidden, just... on top of the fridge. He'll find it and never mention it to anyone. Change autocorrect so his own name is misspelled.Change the batteries in his gaming controller to ones that are at 15%. Fully functional. For now.

Oh yeah. Face value was good. Listing them for half off and adding some pity story about losing a pet and being so distraught that they couldn’t attend and just needed to get rid of them- doubles the number of calls.

You could put some food in an HVAC vent somewhere. Something that won’t smell super bad at first, but then it will get soooo much worse…especially when the heat comes on. Alternatively, if there’s any fixtures that are hollow inside, but you would never take them apart (like the towel bar, etc put something in there.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that your boyfriend has an office chair or desk chair of some kind. It would be a shame if something like, say, a few little pieces of fish guts or maybe a couple sardines found their way up and inside that chair. Alternatively, get a syringe or eye dropper and squirt milk into the seams of the chair down where he won't notice that it's wet and the smell will have plenty of time to grow and mature.
The last thing you would want is for him to constantly be searching his gaming or office space for the source of a terrible smell and being unable to find it.

Remove every other stitch in the crotch of every pair of shorts, pants, underwear, and in the toe and heel of the each sock.
Have a friend call (on Friday night so he can’t see the dr until Monday) from a number they don’t know informing them they are from the health dept and their name has been given from someone they’ve recently slept with had tested positive for an STI and he needs to be tested asap. He will be freaking out until Monday morning when he has to call his PCP asking for an appointment to get checked. Fingers crossed he has a high co-pay to see the dr
Mess with his YouTube algorithm
Does he watch a certain series on Netflix but hasn’t finished it yet? Play it until it gets halfway thru 2 or 3 episodes past where he stopped so he will be confused and wondering if he’s got memory issues since he didn’t remember that happening
Open up cheese wrappers and close them so they can still get exposed to air and turn bad
Lemon juice, lime juice, or hot sauce in all of his condiments.

Tiny little pinholes near the top of all plastic bottle drinks

Labels off all canned goods and mix them up. Leave one or two cans of alpo. Is it corned beef hash or dog food the world will never know.
Replace his candy with the sugar free version. Have fun binge eating sugar free gummies bears (also take all toilet paper and dude wipes if you do this)

Hide that thing that beeps every so often in a place he won’t think to look.
Bags of chips? Put a tiny hole in it. Stale chips are awful
All silverware gone except for one butterknife
Fine glitter in the toe of his shoes. He’s gonna take them off and track that shit everywhere
Replace all buttons on his shirts with either too big or too small of buttons.
Get those fake flies from the fishing aisle, put them in an ice cube tray and freeze. Then add to the ice dispenser. Surprise! Your Pepsi now has 6 flies in it
Fine glitter in his shampoo and/or conditioner
Replace sunblock with mayo.
Shorten one side of the beds legs just a tiny bit
Deer piss in his shampoo, conditioner, or body wash.
Hide “life everlasting” plants with a grow light in a closet and anonymously report it (only if it’s illegal in your state)
Go to a pet store and get feeder maggots (or place that sells fishing bait), put them on a plate/ box of his typical order from a fast food restaurant with some food under the couch where he sits so he thinks he sit it down on the ground when he was done eating and he caused them
If he games log on and sell all of his special armour. If he does Minecraft trap his people in the house and set it on fire
Self tanner in his lotion (beauty by earth self tanner has a lotion that’s white but trust me it leaves you tan)

Seam rip every third stitch on his favorite work pants/ jeans. Do it to his underwear too.
He will assume it’s a quality issue with his clothing and if you only do every few stitches they probably won’t rip until he’s in public.
If he has a backpack that he uses, rip a few stitches on the bottom too.

It might be too late for this. But I've always wanted to do one of these chirping devices. However, you'd have to wait for an online order.
There's these things that chirp a high pitch noise at random intervals and at different frequencies.
When you're moving out you put them in the drywall somehow. Or into the ceiling. Someplace where it would be just annoying enough to notice but it's never on long enough to find.
If you know you'll gain access to the apartment again, I would see if you can place one.

Oh, a couple more... The toe kick under most cabinets is either loose or there's a gap on the top edge, you could sneak one of these under the cabinets that way.
Plumbing clean outs are usually somewhat accessible and the plug that unscrews usually stays dry. Tape/adhere a chirper into the clean out cover and screw it back onto the drain/waste pipe. Bonus, the sound might transmit through the pipe to other parts of the house.

His imagination will fill in the details,.even if there are none. Like he was nothing to you. That will gut him. Then just go live your life and be happy.

Then turn off the water to the toilet and take the flapper.
Hopewellslam@reddit
Adjust the flapper so it’s constantly running. You could drill a discreet hole in it so that water drains slowly and cause it to run.
Interesting-Log-9627@reddit
If you want the toilet to constantly run just find the flexible black rubber tube that refills the bowl and runs from the fill valve to the overflow pipe.
Then remove the clip from the end that holds the tube above the overflow pipe and stuff the tube into the pipe so it is below the water level in the tank.
Water will now constantly siphon from the tank into the bowl, and nothing will appear to be missing or broken.

All these comments are silly petty games you can play, but eventually it’ll be a “yeah she taught me a lesson” thought in his mind like things are even.
He’s going to be frantic when he realizes you just cut him completely off. He’s going to spend nights wondering if you found out, left him for someone else, if it was something he said that one time at that one place, etc.

You have excellent suggestions here. I might make one small one. Do whatever you'll do in the shared lease space.

Wait a month or two. You're probably not the only person he's pissing off, muddy those waters a little.
It's only fair. He didn't want you to know with whom he was playing with, and now he will not know, for sure, whom is toying with him.

The healthy way would be to move on and cut ties, it's a shitty situation and he hurt you, that's speaks of his character and if you choose to be toxic in return it speaks to your character...

Either that or revenge fuck one of his friends. But don't change your morals just to be vindictive as you may look back on it later with regret.

Cut holes in all the pockets of his clothes, or at.least loosen the thread so it goes over time. Put salt in all of the houseplants. Dish soap in the bottom of the dishwasher and washing machine. Chip crumbs in the bed. Plastic cutting board in the oven so it melts when he preheats something. Put something stinky on light bulbs like a little cat food on the glass, but only a little so it doesn't cause a fire. Disconnect the water to the fridge. Soap on his toothbrush. Lemon juice or vinegar in the milk (it will curtle). Milk or something fishy inside the trash can but outside the bag. Glitter on top of ceiling fan blades and in the air filters and leave them off. Piss in his cologne. Take all your hair from your hair brush and shove it down the shower or sink drain. Fork in the garbage disposal, or a shot glass. Lard inside of the oven mits. Add extra spicy hot sauce to the salsa or another condiment. Salt inside every spice, flour, and sugar. Replace his laundry detergent with fabric softener. Sugar in his shoes. Lard or Vaseline on his windshield wipers. Log him out of everything you can and change the password. Milk in his water bottles.

Fievels_good_trouble@reddit
Get a bag of frozen shrimp. Before you leave, stuff the curtain rods. It’ll make the whole place uninhabitable in a couple days and it’s typically the last place anyone would look.
Alternate locations: remove cover to gaming console and put a few in there. Pockets of winter clothes (especially if it’s in storage).
Put a big tray of cooked beans somewhere hidden in the garage or any very warm part of house that is somewhat easy to find (inside vent). This will make him think the problem is solved when he finds it and he won’t keep looking. Rotten shellfish and beans smells worse than a week old corpse.
Also remove shower head and stuff as many jolly ranchers as you can inside. It’ll take about 20 - 30 minutes of running to get it all out but he won’t notice until after he’s completely sticky and probably won’t know how.
Add chicken bouillon (paste ideally) to his shampoo and body wash. Not too much or he’ll notice the smell immediately. But if it’s mixed in well then the fragrance will disappear faster than the oily soup base and he will stink like soup for a while.
Get some fiberglass insulation and stuff the holes of the drum in the dryer. Also dust his underwear and socks with it but be careful it’s not too visible. Also works on a mattress and pillows and in shoes.
Dull the hell out of all the kitchen knives and use one to put tiny nicks in all the flatware on either the handle or head so it’s impossible to not notice but takes a while to get there.
If in a house, fuck with the sprinkler timers and thermostat. Namely by disconnecting a single wire inside. Repeat this process on any appliances he actually owns and is not renting.
Mix dry milk into laundry detergent. Like 1:1 mix or more. Feel free to add a healthy dusting of it to the inside of shoes, in couch cushions, hat sweatbands, gloves, sporting equipment. Anything that can get moist from use at some point in the future.
Drop an upper decker before you leave.

Scan a paperclip and print it, then lay the papersheets back into the printer, so he will search the paperclip at his first prints. Throw away the Vacuumbag without replacement.

And/or alternatively: leave the plate in the freezer.
To go even further... use the plate to create piss disk. Once it's frozen, separate from the plate and prop it up on its side so the flat side faces forward. Place it precariously so that it falls out when the door is opened, and shatters at his feet. Then he has to pick up broken bits of pissdisk 🤗
Might be too far to prop up the whole plate... it could break and leave glass everywhere... then he'd be out of a microwave plate.

Cut one button off each of his dress shirts. Undo the hem on one pant leg on each of his pants. Break the bottom tab off on the zippers of all his jackets.

Put vanilla in the milk. Pour out half of the sugar, then pour in some salt and pour the sugar back on top. Cut a tiny hole with the can opener in any canned food. Break the seal on any beer or pop in the fridge but don't take the cap off all the way. Remove one page from any book he's reading or planning to read.

That’s true. Somehow I got martyred in my only two long term relationships and the families bring me up all the time even around the new wife/gf and everyone talks about how great I am.
Quirky-Invite7664@reddit
That’s the thing. She shouldn’t do anything that can be traced back to her, otherwise the mom will stop liking her and side with her son.
notmyrealnameatleast@reddit
Does that matter once you're out of their lives?
Aixeta@reddit
It doesn’t, you could just leave and never go back. But a this is unethical life tips. And texting the mom a nice message every few years will have her talking about you every thanksgiving and the Ex will never live his mistake down.
Plus you might get a friend out of the deal.
Aixeta@reddit
Ya. My sister has an ex that we all kind of like, it makes it uncomfortable any time she tries to complain about her.
I can think of nothing worse than having your family and friends siding with you out of necessity but really knowing you were the problem all along.

Put his phone number into any kind of annoying marketing scheme, Scientology, church of Latter Day Saints, spam the hell out of him with MLM schemes online , sign him up for every kind of sexual kink sites etc . You can also go on eBay and buy a bucket of keys .. yes keys 🔑 house keys , car keys etc fairly cheap too .. get the little plastic tags for if they are found with his number and name on them and drop them everywhere.. hell give some to your friends out if state . People will find his “ keys “ and be calling him all hours of the day. It’ll drive him insane
DevorahGarland@reddit
Buy a bunch of keys. Put his name and phone number "If found, please call..." on an ID tag for each of them. Scatter them throughout your community. He will get calls from all sorts of people who found his key and he won't know what's going on. You can also do this after you have moved so you can let the revenge continue...for weeks...

Get a bunch of crickets from a pet store- they sell them there as food for lizards and whatnot- and riiiiiight as you’re leaving for the last time, let them all loose inside his closet, under the bed, etc. He’ll eventually get rid of them all, but it’ll take awhile. In the meantime, he won’t be able to sleep, and they might even chew holes in some of his wool clothing.

When I left my cheating ex, I did three things.
1) He thought he was a “day trader” so he had a bunch of expensive suits. I very neatly cut every button, including the extras and left the rest perfect. Not only did it cost $$$ to replace all the buttons but increasing anger as he went through every suit brings me immense joy.
2) I stole every single cable to everything I could find. Power cables, internet cables, phone cables, usb…you name it. Gone.
3) I browsed a LOT of porn on his computer; not in incognito mode, and signed him up for free trials of every premium site I could find.
Well, and a fourth…I met and married an incredible man and moved on to live my dream life while he married a woman in a transactional marriage and I’m pretty sure they’re divorced now

Remove every spoon including serving spoons. from the house. Remove all the labels from every canned good in the pantry. Staple all the clothes in his closet together but on the back so he can’t see it. Unhem all his pants. Put sardines in the curtain rods. For the wifi password, add a space at the beginning and the end. Get one of those small devices that play a cricket sound at random times and hide it where you know he won’t find. Bonus points if you have multiple. Leave a receipt for one less than you actually bought. For his phones. Go to random parking lots and leave a note saying ‘call me I’m pregnant’ and leave one or both of his numbers. But a bunch of random keys. Attach a key ring and his phone number on a tag. Throw them around the city. Not all in obvious places. Have a friend write his phone number on a men’s room wall along with for a good time call Candi. Cut the eglets off every one of his shoelaces. Unravel them just past the first eyelet. Cut small holes in the toes of one sock unless if he wears mismatched socks, then do all of them. Put baby oil on every round knob he has to turn in the house. Change every electronic device to another language. If he pays for water, make that toilet run constantly. Have strangers call in for wellness checks on him constantly, as they are concerned for his mental state after the breakup he caused. And as always switch the salt and sugar.
Turbulent-Caramel25@reddit
Take one of each pair of socks.
ImaGuppy@reddit
Oohhhhhh boy do I have some suggestions for you.
This first one I actually did once and I have no regrets. I wrote hundreds of sticky notes with nasty things on them of varying degrees. Hid them in between pages of his books, behind artwork on the walls, under the coffee table, under the couch, behind the toilet, inside boxes of cereal, rolled up in medicine bottles, anywhere a small slip of paper can be hidden and stumbled upon later, possibly years later. I’ll add some examples.
I’m not sure if this would jeopardize your deposit, it’s not technically damaging the place, but you could hide frozen shrimp in random places like the vents, behind the headboard, under the fridge, in the hollow leg of a lawn chair or something, places they won’t be found until it’s way too late and the stench permeates everything. He’ll go crazy trying to figure out where it’s coming from. For added pettiness, replace frozen shrimp with a mixture of cans of tuna with milk and vinegar mixed in.
ConcernOk7569@reddit
The curtain rods idea is genius. Coul use dog poop too.
Bockyclork@reddit
Fish in the vents or behind radiators
toasterstrudelboy@reddit
Make sure your dog is with a friend during move out. I've seen so many pets get snatched by vengeful exes. Tragically all my good ideas involve cats that they have to be taking, but for others in this situation, feed the cats at 4am every day until they leave. Then they're used to it after they've left and they'll NEVER give it up.

Take pics of everything after you leave. Since you’re still on the lease, he may damage parts of it so you get blamed too when he moves out.

Basically anything that gets used up over time

Quick, do you have any curtain rods?! If so, stuff some frozen shrimp in the rods. Shell on, the smaller the better. Shells retain the moisture and the smell longer. It may take a day or two before they thaw and start to smell. You don't have to add a lot. Just 2 or 3, and tap those into the middle of the rod so at 1st look, they won't be visible. It will drive him crazy trying to locate the source of the smell.

Or don’t do any of this and fuck his best friend. (This sometimes is not fun in the long run, they are usually in love with you already)
Or be a better influencer with more followers in a similar field really fast, then once influence is gained reveal him to be a cheater that sucks.

There are spoof caller sites where you can enter a target phone number, enter their info and type in a message, and a bot will spam call the number and read out the message every time they answer. You can even specify the number you want the calls to appear to be from…
So imagine getting a call from your best friend, answering it and hearing… the Bee Movie script. You hang up, shaking your head in confusion, then mom calls and it’s the same thing. Then your dad. Then your siblings. And it just keeps going, and you can’t avoid it, because as soon as you hang up, another number calls… and calls… and calls… It goes on like that for hours, which become days, which turn into months. There’s no screening against random local numbers. You’re convinced you’ve angered the spirit of a screenwriter, who’s launched a hostile takeover of your phone number. So you get a new one and update everyone you know. There’s peace. You can work again. But then… you get a call from your best friend.

Take one of the pads off from the bottom of the kitchen tables and chairs. This will cause them to not be level. It's one of those annoyances that can go on for a while because it is still usable. Also take one screw out of the handles on your kitchen refrigerator. The key is to leave things still usable. You want it to be an annoyance every time they use them, but not quite annoying enough that they get around to fixing it right away. You want the momentary inconvenience to build up into a frustrating annoyance over time. I do want to stress though - do not mess with cooking appliances like the stove, oven, etc. This can create a safety hazard. We only want to be annoying here, not criminal. If you had the time though, I would have totally recommended some other annoyances such as a randomly chirping device hidden somewhere that just happens to also sound like the low battery warning for a smoke detector. We aren't messing with the actual smoke detector. We are just making it sound like the battery is always low even after they have just been replaced. They will find it after a while. Also works well with cricket noises spread out throughout the different rooms.

1) Steal and throw away one shoe a day, always from a different pair.
2) the remaining pairs of shoes, fuck them up in a non-visible way. Slice a hole in the bottom all the way through with a knife so their feet get speaks when it rains but otherwise they won’t know it’s there. Fray the shoelaces in an invisible spot but it’ll break the next time they get pulled.
3) Continuing with the clothing - use cooking oil to stain the pits and crotch of shirts and pants. Technically it’s washable (you have to use dish soap and a tooth brush lmao). They’ll think the clothes are ruined and hopefully wear them in public without noticing.
4) Rip seams out of the crotch of dress pants they don’t wear super often. They’ll be left in the lurch come time for job interview/wedding/date. Or, better yet, they’ll wear it out before noticing.
5) Slice one pocket open on 50% of their pants and jackets. With luck they’ll lose their car keys this way, or their phone will fall and screen will crack.
6) Steal and throw away one piece of expensive or vital but small electronics every couple of days. Xbox controller, AirPods, HMDI cable for the game console, TV remote, etc.
7) Water down or pour out most of their bath and beauty and health products. Squeeze out all their eye drops and replace with plain water. Pour out most of their mouth wash and replace with plain water. Pour out most of their face wash, shampoo, conditioner, moisturizer, shaving cream, anything they use and especially if it’s specialty/expensive and even better if it’s in a container they can’t tell levels on. If it’s something they can see levels on, just dump out a generous amount a few times a week. Workout shakes, beer, any other special drinks or food that they particularly like or are for them only.
8) Hide a noise maker in a vent somewhere and set it off with an app whenever you want. You can also buy some that just go off randomly every few hours for the car, backpack, etc.
9) Post something valuable for a decent amount under normal asking price on Craigslist or Facebook marketplace using a fake account with a random name and use their phone number. They’ll get nonstop texts and calls wanting the really good deal on the Xbox or car or nice couch.

One of my petty exes took all the hangers from the closet, leaving my clothes on the floor. Try that!
moostchain@reddit
Lets hear about those other petty exes 👀
reijasunshine@reddit
He was the most petty by far. He was caught cheating and was big mad that I kicked him out.
A different petty ex wouldn't give me back my favorite shirt for MONTHS. That's annoying in a different way, though.
wynnejs@reddit
Have your brother leave an upper decker on the way out. Won't cause damage... it's just gross.
theLastBourbender@reddit
Suggesting her brother do it for her made me chuckle, reminds me of the "women don't poop" trope
wynnejs@reddit
I'm more thinking about size, and possibility of grossness.

Put frozen shrimp in the hollow curtain rods then put them back up. The place will reek of rotting seafood and he’ll never be able to find where it’s coming from.
SignatureCreepy503@reddit
Send his mom flowers and say you wished it didn't have to be that way. Send her flowers every mother's day and birthday on auto. That way you can forget, but they won't be able to.
OhSassafrass@reddit
Get a seam ripper and unstitch the seam of one pocket in random pants and jackets. Just barely big enough that a set of keys would work their way loose and lost forever.

Anytime I get one of those scam texts I text them back wit all of my exes info.

I read on one of these groups where the husband cheated, they divorced and he got the house, husband moved mistress in and a few weeks later left because the house smelled.. got so bad that when he tried to sell the house he couldn’t, he eventually did but took a massive loss on the property. Turns out that before the wife moved out she put raw shrimp inside the curtain rods! And no one knew!! Just saying that’s an option lol even with his car…
Big-Engineering-5323@reddit
Register him on various religious websites (jahova, Scientology, etc) for free magazines and on their schedule to visit to ‘learn more’.
Register on sketchy websites with his cell and name so he keeps getting spam calls and emails.
Subscribe to weird porn magazines and have them sent to his workplace.
redrockz98@reddit
The weird porn is genius. Or, have them sent to his parents house…
Sad_Construction9495@reddit
Hide some prawns in the curtains or somewhere he wouldn’t think to look. The putrid rotting smell will drive him crazy

Rip all the labels off the canned food so he has mystery food.

Small amounts of grass seed in the carpet pile.
Rub it in so it's invisible, and it'll eventually grow.
Bonus points if it's under the couch or bed, or somewhere that it won't be found for a long time.

Take his phone number and email, and start signing up for mailing lists and coupons for places like target or Adam and Eve. Car dealerships. Anything really. Especially if it’ll be funny.
ScarInternational161@reddit
Pee (or some other stinky nasty stuff) in the shampoo bottles and shake it up, same with conditioner, dish soap, laundry detergent, any liquid cleaning stuff.
Multiple sized women's underwater hidden in different places around the house (if he brings someone there, they will find them)
Any eggs in the fridge? Hard boil them and put them back.
Male gay magazine hidden behind the toilet and one between the mattress (another somewhere only found if he moves or a lady moves in)
Plastic cups, plates or straws? Poke holes in all of them that won't be noticed until something is poured in them.
Optimal-Prime420@reddit
The egg one is diabolical.
deannainwa@reddit
Sew the fly shut in all of his underwear.
Remove several stitches in the crotch or back seam of his pants with a seam ripper.
Cut most of the way through the lace on one of each of his shoes so it breaks when he goes to tie it.
Hair spray the toilet paper and roll it back up.
Plastic wrap over the toilet bowl.
LevelPerception4@reddit
I had to live with an ex I’d broken up with for a few months. When I was overwhelmed with rage, I’d go into the bathroom and swirl his toothbrush in the toilet. Not after using it, just regular toilet water. Won’t kill him, but you’ll know and it’s very calming.
I actually googled him the other day when I saw he was following me on LinkedIn. He’s fat and bald now, which felt awesome because he told me he cheated on me because I was too fat. It looks like he’s gained all the weight I’ve lost, and it feels like karmic balance.
LouB0O@reddit
Hide shrimp before you leave
SillyStallion@reddit
There was a post recently where someone bought a car (banger) in that person's name and parked it in an airport carpark. Their ex got parking tickets totalling 100k over 2 and a half years as well as losing their lisence. The person who did it faced zero consequences as they had nothing wrong according to the law.
I'm less scorched earth and would put bird seed at the bottom of the windscreen and the it get crapped on

PetSmart sells catnip in Keurig pods...if he uses a Keurig sneak one into his stash.

Buy a bag of random keys and tags on Amazon. Label each with his name and phone number. Drop them all over the place over a long period of time. Like, months. If someone is going on vacation, send them with a few to drop.
One of my coworkers got pissed at her supervisor and did this. He was getting calls for almost a year. I don’t know if he ever figured out what was going on.
GloriouslyGrimGoblin@reddit
Put a thin layer of clear nail polish on the contact springs in the remotes. After it's dried, scrape off just a tiny bit of it.
If you get it right, the remote will work only sporadically and after vigorous battery jiggling. Changing the batteries won't help.
SchmigadoonSmitty@reddit
A fine sprinkling of glitter on everything he owns. Every pocket. Every device. Every shoe. Do the doorknobs. Do his keyboard. Inside the pillowcase. The dishes. Buff chrome on the screens. Get fine and chunky.

If he's an influencer, the thing he values most is his reputation.
If you could find a way to post a video to his account when he not looking, where you explain what he did to his entire audience, he will lose followers. That will hurt more than anything else.
oldirtygecko@reddit
Just leave. Why do you want to antagonize your former partner. Just leave and be done.
Or pee on his bed and use a hairdryer to dry it up. WHATEVER YOU WANNA DO
ELONgatedMUSKox@reddit
Does anyone at his place of work have a similar name/same last name?
An official-looking form-letter, informing the recipient that they have a collection of STI's, sent to A. Lastname, care of: Company Name. Maybe someone else opens his mail by accident?
It's important that you neither use your own printer(do not!), nor make physical contact with the letter & envelope(gloves!).
Ideally, if you have access to a large healthcare building, you could drop the sealed envelope in someone's outbox, that way it gets to the mail. A sick person might need to wear gloves and a mask to walk through a healthcare building.
Just in case, before you leave the apartment, ensure you have any info on him that you might not already: social security number, full name, date of birth, mother's maiden name, as many logins (user + password!), his phone numbers, his car's VIN, etc.—you can't find creative solutions without resources!
If there are tags/hashtags that are specific to his flavor of 'influencing', hijack them.
The client-facing phone number(s) should be kept busy—just in case, there's always Craigslist! You can make up an ad about anything! Leaking a bit of personal info could make the Craigslist calls more interesting for your ex!

Crying baby card hidden and taped somewhere, or cricket, or any / all of them from Joker Greeting. When you try to rip the card apart to make the noise stop it dumps glitter everywhere.
Aerryth@reddit
Oooooo yea, you reminded me there’s random noise makers that chirp very occasionally. He’ll rip the house apart looking for it

Go to grocery store and buy a few whole fresh fish.
At the apt open up a few of the floor vents and drop the fish in. Push them down the duct a little bit so they're not visible if he peaked inside.
Let time do it's thing.
FillMySoupDumpling@reddit
There is a spice called asfoetida and it stinks. It’s inexpensive at an Indian store. You can sprinkle it in the vents, sweep it into baseboards and more.
Truly foul.

Fill out a bunch of physical subscription cards for every magazine you can get your hands on and make sure to check the “bill me later” option. That way he’ll have to cancel the subscriptions versus just ignoring the mail. Bonus if they’re porn mags.
Overall-Scientist846@reddit
Revenge is poison for others that we end up drinking ourselves.
Living well is the best revenge.
I would go the route others have suggested. Head up, tits out, make him look crazy when he tells people that you were the problem.

Just ghost 100%. Don’t discuss anything at all.
Bitchee62@reddit
If he has any plants in pots, or a box, basket, or decorative container sitting around mix Limburger cheese, a small amount of milk and some lemon juice together and put drops of it in those items.
If you are feeling particularly vicious add a anchovy and blend it up then put drops on the back and tops of his curtains. In the vent of his vehicle if he has one that isn’t yours!!! This is a long term annoyance as the smell is slowly developing and particularly vile.
Since you don’t want any damage to the house don’t put it in the heating vents or roll it onto random walls behind things like the refrigerator

Buy some raw shrimp and spread them around the apartment like in his underwear drawer, the back of the fridge, under the bathroom sink, inside a sock in the back of a closet.

Tell him you have a venereal disease - and that he got it from him, and he needs to tell his cheats that they may have it too. He will tell them before he gets checked out, so he will have to have that awkward conversation, and then when he goes to get checked for it, it will take days for him to find out.

captainmanglor@reddit
Leave forged paperwork with your name on it saying you have HIV. It takes up to six months for it to show up on blood tests so he will be freaking out for atleast 6 months as well as the person he cheated on you with. If he posts anything about it call him crazy for faking the paperwork and saying that about you. You can prove to your future partners it’s not true…
