The road to revenge is a tenuous one. It can be supremely satisfying in low doses, but it's easy enough to cross over into excess that could come back to bite you. Here's a guide to keeping your cool, but still get revenge.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Step 1

Bide your time. Learn what you can about your mark, especially regarding their likes/dislikes, social networks or other points of vulnerability. There are plenty of universally accepted revenge ploys, but the more personal, the better.
Step 2

Run your idea by a very close friend. If you're getting revenge on somebody, you're almost certainly emotionally invested in the situation. This can lead to hasty judgment and poor decisions. Make sure you're not hurting others or taking your revenge too far.
Step 3

Keep yourself anonymous until the end. By anonymously pouring oil under a foe's new luxury car or subscribing them to junk mail services, you can sit back and watch the show until you think it's time to reveal yourself (if ever) as the culprit.
Step 4

Check online or at the library for creative revenge ideas. The object is to affect their pocketbook or reputation, not inflict physical harm.
Step 5

Live well. This is usually the best prescription for revenge. Nothing will upset somebody who has wronged you more than to see that, despite their meddling, you're doing just dandy.

on 9/26/2009 Getting revenge on who did to you, and who is toying with you while you're not showing respects. And the one is to blame for not tell you you're not intresting in and who is been toying with you and telling that people don't like you and Jesus/God doesn't like you then they tell you are the enemy.
