Two can play at that game, kid…

This story from Reddit’s “Petty Revenge” page is short, sweet, and satisfying!

So go ahead and get started now and see how this person handled an annoying situaiton.

Let’s go!

Kid sang one phrase on repeat for an hour. I played the song on full blast.

“I rented a basement apartment in the house of a family.

Sound didn’t travel between floors, but there was one basement room that they occasionally used.

Oh, boy…

One of the kids was chilling and singing a few lines from a song on repeat.

Not very well.

Just lost in thought, those two freakin’ lines for almost an hour.

It was revenge time!

Finally I decided I had enough.

I found the song online, played it at full blast, and within one repeat she got the hint and stopped.

I stopped the music and all was well again.

Admittedly this wasn’t exactly revenge, but it worked better than actively calling them out and we never spoke about it.”

And this is what folks had to say on Reddit.

This reader had a lot to say.

And this person chimed in.

I bet that kid and her family never wanted to hear that song again as long as they lived.

At least he broke the cycle.
