Most people have wanted to get back at an evil ex.

In this story, a couple of friends get the *sweetest* revenge possible.

Let’s take a bite outta this one…

Just a little prank

I pulled one of the best/ silliest pranks on my ex.

It’s April Fool’s Day as I write this, so I can’t wait to hear the prank.

Me and my friend were thinking of the best way to get back at him.

There were the obvious ones, like getting with his friends or telling his mum all the bad stuff he did to me.

But I wanted to do something little that would get back at him.

The suspense! What did she do?

What I did was harmless, as I didn’t want to start any more drama but just wanted to mess with him.

We came up with an idea to leave little gifts at his front door.

We went to the shop and looked for the strangest thing to leave there and spotted crumpets, they are delicious but definitely not something you would expect at your door.

That sounds lovely, waiting for the vengeful part?

We would go there a few times a week and spread then with butter and just leave them there.

I knew he had cameras but I knew a good blind spot we would throw them from. This continued for weeks and he was actually going insane.

Alright so he’s going crazy, maybe he got his just desserts.

But did he figure it out?

He would post online asking if anyone knew about it or who did it. Eventually our mutual friends were all laughing about it with no idea it was us.

We had to stop since we almost got caught once and we thought we might as well leave it before it got too far.

But I enjoyed it while it lasted. To this day he has no idea it was me.

Nope. Some mysteries are better left unsolved.

Do the comments agree?

One person needs some crumpet clarity.

If you give an ex a cookie… it will drive him insane.

Love this harmless revenge.
