The Day I Outsmarted a 'Rat-Runner'—Sweet, Petty Victory at the Stoplight

There’s a special kind of driver out there—the "rat-runner." You know the type: always in a hurry, always looking for a shortcut, and usually piloting a big, black truck with more horsepower than patience. If you’ve ever sat at a red light only to have someone behind you honk and then dart through a gas station to bypass the wait, congratulations! You’ve met a rat-runner. And if you’ve dreamed of outsmarting them? This story is your new anthem.

Recently, a Redditor (u/Maleficent-Dare-3054) shared a delightfully petty tale of triumph over just such a driver. It’s the kind of everyday victory we all secretly crave—a moment where karma, timing, and a touch of stubbornness align perfectly at a suburban intersection.

When Flatulence Becomes Justice: The Day a Silent Fart Defeated a Karen

We’ve all had those days when our stomachs declare mutiny, turning our innards into a symphony of groans, cramps, and, let’s be honest, the occasional chemical warfare. But what happens when you weaponize a bad tummy day for the greater good? Redditor u/zorggalacticus brings us a tale so foul, so fragrantly petty, that it’ll have you both laughing and reaching for the air freshener.

It all began, as many legendary tales do, with a digestive disaster. Zorg ate something that turned their insides into a gassy cauldron, threatening to end their marriage, or at least force their spouse to call an exorcist. Desperate for relief, they made a fateful trip to the gas station for ginger ale—unwittingly stumbling into a showdown of epic (and aromatic) proportions.

Five Cents of Petty Revenge: How One Bus Fare Collector Got Schooled in Karma

Picture this: it’s late at night, the city is winding down, and you’re just trying to get home after a long day’s work. Your pockets are nearly empty, but you’ve counted your change and—phew!—you have just enough for the bus fare. Or so you thought. You’re five cents short. What would you do? And more importantly, what would the fare collector do?

For one man’s father, this encounter turned a small coin into a golden opportunity for poetic justice. The Reddit tale “Couldn’t Let Five Cents Slide, So I Guess I Can’t Pay Either” isn’t just about bus fare—it’s a masterclass in karma, timing, and the power of a well-timed comeback.

Picture this: It’s late at night, you’ve just finished a grueling 12-hour shift saving lives, your feet ache, your stomach is rumbling, and all you can think about is that precious takeout waiting in your passenger seat. You turn onto your peaceful cul-de-sac, only to find your driveway—your sanctuary—commandeered by a hulking white SUV that isn’t yours. That delicious dinner just got served cold with a side of frustration.

For one Redditor (u/Gotenks972), this wasn’t a one-off annoyance—it was the final straw in an ongoing saga of neighborly disrespect. And when push came to shove (or, should we say, tow), she delivered a masterclass in petty revenge that cost her neighbor $300 and guaranteed her the last laugh.

Pizza, Payback, and Petty Revenge: How One Breakup Fueled a Deliciously Devious Feud

Breaking up is rarely fun. Sometimes it’s a teary, mutual parting. Sometimes you quietly block each other and move on.

But sometimes, just sometimes, the universe gives you a chance to serve up a little poetic justice. And on one fateful drive, Reddit user u/Percy-id took that chance—and sprayed it right in the face of an unsuspecting "dominguero."
