Blood, Brownies, and Petty Revenge: The Tale of the Roommate Who Learned the Hard Way

Some stories are so deliciously petty, so perfectly seasoned with irony and schadenfreude, that they deserve to be baked into internet legend. Today, we’re serving up a classic from Reddit’s r/PettyRevenge: a tale of brownies, blood, and a roommate who bit off more than he could chew—literally.

It’s the mid-90s. HIV/AIDS stigma is rampant, grunge rules the airwaves, and two newlywed lovebirds are making the best of a tiny servants’ quarters in a crumbling Victorian. Enter: Kevin, the kind of roommate whose name will forever be whispered with a groan by anyone who’s ever had to label their food in a shared fridge.

When Housemates Become House Mess-Mates: A Petty (But Genius) Lesson in Respecting Shared Spaces

Have you ever found yourself staring down a kitchen disaster zone, left behind by housemates who apparently believe in magical cleaning fairies? If so, you’ll relate to Redditor u/amy_cath’s story—a tale of camaraderie, chaos, and a gloriously petty act of revenge that just might restore order (or at least elicit a few sheepish apologies).

Let’s set the stage: six young women, one household, and a dream of harmonious cohabitation. The first two weeks were blissful—a clean kitchen, a tidy living room, and the kind of shared respect that would make Marie Kondo beam. But somewhere along the way, three of the housemates channeled their inner party animals, leaving behind more chaos than a university frat house after finals. Empty bottles, wasted food, and trash piles became the new decor. After weeks of polite reminders and diplomatic group chats, our heroine had enough. What happened next? A bin bag, some strategic cleaning, and a lesson that hit right where it hurts: the leftover booze.

Today, we gather around the digital campfire to honor one such legend—the tale of the rotting sandwich. It’s a story of grime, revenge, and an unforgettable olfactory surprise that left a mark (and probably a lingering odor) on all involved.
