Revenge (ever get some?)


JamesEagle

Recommended Posts

There seem to be hundreds, thousands even, of revenge-themed films, which, along with the song I have stuck in my head at the moment, got me thinking. Have I ever got revenge on anyone? I can't think of a single example.

 

I thought it might be a fun thing to ask on here - does anyone have any good revenge stories? Ever got your own back on anyone? The movies and TV shows would have us believe it happens all the time, but I'm not so sure. Must be some interesting tales out there...

I have taken pride on not getting mad, but getting even, ask any of my ex's who have decided to use me as a door mat, our "private" home movies have been viewed by many, any dirt I can get on anyone I do, most times it's never anything more then just stuff in a box, but when they decide to fuck with me, it becomes public, like my ex's dad, who fathered a child exactly her age(my ex's) well word from someone who knew he many years ago tells us, he basically ditched this chick and her kid, well when he decided to get involved with our break up, I warned him it was not a wise decision, but he must have thought I was kidding, so now his entire family knows about what a standup guy he was, sure it was classless, immature, and childish, but hey those are all compliments to me!

Working in the housing business, I routinely come across cable tv/internet equipment abandoned by tenants when they skip out on me. All the while, Charter constantly screws me on my own tv and internet deals at home.

 

I love calling them to ask if they'll offer me some kind of deal on installation or one-time discount for the effort of returning their equipment to them. They always refuse, but tell me they'll be happy to come and pick it up from me. My response to that is always the same: "Sure, I'll stop home from work sometime between 12 and 5 next Friday. Be there". Of course they aren't and I end up chucking the equipment in the dumpster. Screw 'em.

I dont know who Charter is, but they sound an aweful lot like Cumcast, the biggest money hole, piece of shit, needs to be annihilated company on the face of the planet, I went to work for them, just to get their tools, once I got them, I quit, they withheld my final check for not returning them, oh ouch, like that mattered, the money I made installing peoples cable on the side killed my final check amount by a thousand, complete monopoly, and completely got my taste of victory over them.

Yeah, what utter c***s!

 

BTW, I knew Cody would have at least one good revenge story! :D

 

I had an opportunity for revenge when I was a little kid. A boy who bullied me at my infants school (when I was about 6 or 7) walked past me and my friends when I was a bit older (probably about 9). I went up to him and started taking the p*ss and my friends were all up for giving him a smack, but I let him walk off. Regretted it for ages! (Bullying is so scummy, it makes me feel sick.)

 

Never got my own back on an ex though...

whats that supposed to mean? why would you imply I would have a revenge story? I was just kidding, it never happened, it was all a fabricated lie, ha ha, no revenge here, if I had the balls I would, but I dont.

Do I really come off as someone who would seek revenge? is it still considered revenge when it feels like your doing the right thing? even though it's the wrong thing?

Sorry, didn't mean to make it sound like that. No, it's just that you come off as someone with a lot of good stories / interesting experiences to share!

 

And I honestly believe sometimes revenge is the right thing to do, for two reasons. Firstly, it can make the person who has been wronged feel much better. Secondly, it can show someone whose behaviour is unacceptable that they cannot always act in that way and get away with it. Not always the right thing to do, but occasionally it is imo.

 

Thought there'd be plenty of stories of people getting their own back on cheating partners, etc on here... shrug.gif

I just let karma do its thing

 

That would be great, but if you dont believe in Karma, you have to make your own, thats where I come in, whats the point of someone happening to someone bad, if they dont even know why its happening, lessons arent learned that way, and isnt that what revenge boils down to? teaching someone a lesson more then anything, thats is absolutely the only thing I have ever gotten revenge for, to teach someone I aint no punk, and they aint gonna fuck with me, or treat me like one,

The best revenge I have gotten in life is directed at my folks: I have succeeded in life, both professionally and personally, even with their abuse and WELL beyond what they said I would. My kids will never have to know them. Oh and better yet they will never know my kids...

Really sorry to hear that. I can't understand anyone wanting to hurt their own children, so I'm glad you overcame it. Nice one.

Karma would be nice, but I think it only works in 'My Name Is Earl'.

 

There was a bloke I worked for a while ago who made my life a misery for a year or two. I really dreaded coming to work every day as he was such a c***. I desperately wanted to see him get his comeuppance, but it never happened. Karma my arse.

Yeah theres to many horrible evil people that live high on the hog, and way to many honest and genuine people that go down in flames for me to ever believe in Karma, no such thing, whatever happens, happens, regardless of what proceeded it, you can call it what you want to, but karma is for the birds, maybe they have it.

:agree:

 

...although I wish I'd known you then, Cody, I bet you'd have had some interesting suggestions for dealing with the bloke. ;)

Yeah sadly it all comes to naturally to me, and it was fine until I became an adult, its something i really have to keep a lid on, because things can really go south when your running on spite and anger, revenge is always and I mean always best left to a clear and calm mind, and there is never an exception to that rule.

Sage words. :tumbsup:

    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice. 
    • Yeah, that's great but this is obviously an accomplished musician probably completely in control of this output... not done with Suno, I'd bet. There's definitely dudes out there who are perfectly capable of doing their own music, like this dude, but for whatever reason might not be able to put a project together, again, for whatever reason... but this definitely feels a lot more like AI feeling in the missing gaps for someone otherwise in complete control of what he wants.  Either way, it is very cool indeed.  As Darkstone says, I'm not sure paying is the way to get the best results. I'm also not saying it isn't, especially with other platforms that are not Suno. I think already knowing what you're doing, musically, is the best way to get best results, personally. Suno, for example, is just perfect for someone who might enjoy writing lyrics but is not in any way shape or form an accomplished (or even adequate, lol) musician.  But yeah, it's pretty cool for some fun. I'm not sure if you checked out my links above. Keeping them pretty quiet due to lyrical content, lol, but you might dig some of the stuff in my links. 'As the moment passes by' and 'I'll wait for you' are two of my personal faves. Along with 'Faith to fall.'
    • Yeah, musically it's what you want, but vocally... Maybe Alex should take some vocal lessons from Ken Tamplin. ;}
    • Your Eyes - Darkstone (2024) Two versions of my song number 6     https://suno.com/song/e8c1e85b-21ee-4d35-a64b-e786f00944d2   https://suno.com/song/9144c77a-bd7c-49c1-9508-f724d0832fdb
    • Yep, although I was never a massive fan.
    • Yes, celebrating their fifty years. There only two original members left in the band. Dusty might agree with me the Angels died when the original singer passed away.
    • It's just not the same without the Doc though...
