It pays to be a good tenant…but it also pays to be a good landlord.

There are two sides to every coin, right?

And if you think I’m pulling your leg, this story from Reddit might change your mind…

Check out what went down!

Landlord revenge.

“Not my story, but my friend’s, an act of revenge he did back in the ’90s with a scumbag landlord of his.

This guy was a creep.

He lived at this apartment in Dallas for a while and his landlord was a real jerk.

He would complain about non-existent noises, he jacked up the rent via some slimy loophole in the contract, he refused to make any repairs and left my friend to call plumbers, etc. on his own.

A lot more stuff that I can’t remember.

The final straw was when my friend announced he was moving out.

He gave about two months’ notice, but the landlord screamed about this and that (I don’t really know), but bottom like he flat out announced that my friend would never get his security deposit back.

My friend was prepared to fight this, but then said screw it; a plan of revenge is worth a few hundred bucks.

By lucky chance for this plan, the move out was at the end of August–the middle of summer.

There was a closet in the apartment that he cleaned out completely. It was fairly large with hardwood floors like the rest of the apartment.

Oh, no…

Then he went down to a butcher’s shop and asked for the offal–basically intestines and scrap–they were going to throw away.

He came back with a trash bag full of pig stomach, intestines, fat, bones, and god knows what else.

He went back a few more times and got even more bags.

He put all this offal in these big Hefty bags and put them in the closet.

He then closed the closet door and taped it all to hell–it was hermetically sealed, no air in or out.

Fast forward two months. It was time to go, he was moving out, he had all his stuff out, all that was left to do was leave the keys on the counter and go.

Here it comes!

Which he did. But the very last thing he did was put on some rubber gloves, rubber boots, and a facemask and unseal the closet door.

Working as quickly as he could, all within a few large breaths, he took a knife and cut cut cut all those Hefty bags with the two month old offal festering in there.

He said even holding his breath and breathing through his mouth the stench was unbelievable.

He dumped the contents on the floor, closed the closet door, and walked out. He never heard back from the landlord again.”

Now let’s see what folks had to say on Reddit.

He might’ve taken things a bit too far…
