So how do you get your own back?

I always fancied sewing prawns in the hem of curtains....
or
serving up cat food in a delicious pastry pie!

or is life too short for bitterness.

What would you do to get your own back or do you turn the other cheek?

Why bother?

Walk away with your head held high and eventually they will stuff something up without your assistance.

Then you make sure you congratulate them on their misfortune.

Unless the revenge is for a practical joke played upon you.

In that case I have been known to spend a lot of time and money to wreak revenge.

I always say what comes around goes around!! Dunno what it means but it sounded good in a film i saw once.
No i reckon you only get out of life what you put in what's that mean?
Revenge is a dish best served cold? What's that mean?
Nothing wrong with practical jokes though as long as théy don't harm anyone.
Yesterday at work i smeared black boot polish on the rims of my binoculars.We use them in the summer to watch the Transavia stewardesses as they proceed to and fro from work.
Anyway this feller comes in while i'm pretending to look through the binoculars and he wants to have a look as well!!
We didn't tell him for hours he had two black rings around his eyes.He'd been to a finance meeting as well and nobody had told him!!

We have had some classic practical jokes played on each other in my family.

When I was seven my sister told all my friends I was sick and my birthday party had been cancelled.

I was sitting there with the cake and everything else ready and nobody turned up except smelly old relatives.

My revenge was to put small amounts of soap powder in the flour she was using to make a cake for her teachers birthday. Looked great, smelt great, tasted like......soap!


She put a live frog in my brother's bed.

He put a live Red Belly Black Snake (deadly...but very pretty snake) in her school desk. (cleared the classroom fairly quickly).


The funniest one I ever played on her was when she was baby sitting my younger brothers.

I was supposed to be sleeping over at a friends.

They always watched horror movies late on a Friday night before going to bed.

I painted a couple of small lightglobes from a torch with some red paint and sticky taped them to the window next to the TV.

When it got to a scary part in the movie I lit them up and it looked like red eyes peering in.

My little brothers were in on the joke and pretended to freak out and pointed to the "eyes".

He screams were wondefull and lasted a while till she realised her little brothers were curled up laughing.
