You're missing one big point of the meat revenge- causing a significant inconvenience. It wasn't just about getting something valuable in exchange for the car damage. The neighbor's recklessness caused OP a bunch of headaches trying to figure out how to make the neighbor liable for the damage. OP returned the favor by giving the neighbor the giant headache of finding people to take his supposedly spoiled meat, while also scoring something valuable for free for his trouble. Sounds like Pro Revenge to me!

Not the biggest fan about the second story. Even though the guy gave away some of the meat. A lot of it was wasted. To purposely waste food like that especially meat is a little disgusting to me. Being that most of the meat from him hurting. He didn’t get him financially. Just lost of life with no purpose.

OP's "elaborate" revenge in story #2 is definitely better than just stealing the meat. The neighbor would have suspected, making OP open to a cycle of revenge. Plus you never know about cameras etc. Also, as the story progressed I was worried that the meat would end up being wasted. So glad it went to good use!

If OP had taken anything the way you're suggesting, Rslash, then the prepper dude would know *immediately* who did it when he goes to do his own check and that would be a problem on it's own. The way OP handled that situation was beyond smart and left zero culpability on themselves.

Story 2: He wasnt trying to get revenge at first and when he saw the freezers he probably only thought that he'd end up throwing out all the meat. Instead he ended up getting 5 months worth of meat unintentionally.

OP with the neighbour with the meat didn’t set out to get meat. He set out to make the neighbour get rid of his stockpile of meat. Getting to eat it was just a bonus.

The OP in the 2nd story would literally be in jail (or pay a few hundred/thousand fine) if he did anything RSlash said. He says OP is a nice person not wanting to break any laws but then immediately says OP should break the law with 90s movie pranks. If anyone is to nice it's you Mr.Bailey, because it takes a real villain to think of something that evil and get away with it too other than leaving DNA evidence behind and the fact that OP was the only one the guy asked to check his house if they had bad weather so he doesn't need a witness.

I was wondering why they were called that. Also they mostly wear it when at home too.

Stealing someone's meat is a scrub move. Making give it away voluntarily is so much more delicious. Figuratively and literally, if you're a neighbourhood pet.

I agree about the intricacy of the freezer revenge being unnecessary. BUT I love this revenge, because it really leaves OP with clean hands. He was suuuuuuuch a good guy who let Chester know about the power outage, what a charmer! What a great neighbor! No neighbor drama, free meat, delicious revenge.

Story 2 reminds me of something... When I was a kid, we had a horrible neighbor. He was angry with my parents because they bought the property and he wasn't able to. He owned rental property next to ours. We had a garage with a separate breaker, and we had a long storage freezer out there. We went on vacation for 2 weeks, came back to a freezer full of spoiled meat. Guy went out and flipped the breaker while we were gone. He was buddies with the cops in town, good ole boys type small town, and we had no evidence other than how difficult it would be to get to the breaker. So in modern money ammount, probably 1500 worth of meat and another 700 for the freezer. Nothing beats coming home from a trip to Disneyland like someone vandalizing your things and having no recourse.

I agree with most of the comments on story 2, break and bend as few laws as possible in revenge. You never know who is watching or who has cameras for one, and if you are ever caught, all they can do is be mad at you.

As someone whose mom got scam both by scammers and the 'justice' system of my country, this feels good. Wish more people were like OP.

In regards to story 2: when people have freezers full of meat, it’s usually from slaughtering their own cows, or from hunting expeditions. Maintaining a cow up until slaughter is thousands of dollars. Hunting licenses and equipment for a single season can be in the thousands as well. Getting your meat processed is $700-$1200 depending on the size of the animal, and the cuts you’re looking for. One animal tends to fill half of one of the larger meat freezers. OP definitely got his revenge EASILY by removing a cup, putting it back, and making some phone calls. It wasn’t about getting free meat, it was about costing this man thousands of dollars.

Until the end, I was sure OP in story 2 would have kept the penny cup in his fridge while actually cutting off the power from Chester's house, then turn it on again, wait for the freezers to get down to the right temperature and put the cup back, to eventually make Chester eat potentially hazardous meat. But to be honest, his revenge is way better

So, about story two. There are a couple things you need to know. 1. If OP would have done any of what you suggested, shit would have hit the fan for him. Losing "Chesters" trust would have been the tip of the iceberg, and the potential legal ramifications could have cost OP WAY more than it was worth. Hell, the whole neighborhood could have had the potential to turn on him if Chester decided OP was the one to break and enter/vandalize/rob his home, EVEN IF he didn't have any solid proof. 2. What OP did was absolute genius. Not only was it free from legal ramifications (as all he really did was mess with a cup of ice and tell a white lie), but he masterfully convinced Chester of the meat being (falsely) spoiled due to acting like a concerned neighbor over the (very, VERY real) storm that could have affected his home, forcing the neighbor to waste not only hundreds, perhaps thousands, of dollars of food, but also go though the excessive headache of trying to get rid of it all. This is what you call being Lawful Evil. You payback revenge and commit harm for your selfish benefit (petty or major), all within the confines of laws and social rules. He masterfully got vengeance against Chester, all while said neighbor was never the wiser for it, and as far as he's concerned, they're still friendly with each other. And, to tell you the truth? It's always so much more amazing to watch such elaborate plans go off without a hitch, especially when it leaves the target without a clue that it was even fabricated against them in the first place.

What I thought Op was going to do is cut the power at Chester’s house for a while, keep the water cup in his freezer and then let Chester eat rotten meat, but getting free meat for himself and his dogs is a much better revenge

My dad, who was in marketing at the time, and I passed a high-end clothes store in the mall. In the window was a mannequin wearing one of those shirts mentioned at the end of story 1. My dad says “You know what those shirts are called? The store should just lean into it and pose the mannequin like it’s about to backhand slap someone.” I don’t think I’ve seen one of those shirts displayed anywhere since that day.

The part about 8 years old rSlash was utterly adorable. I need more of that in my life.

Story 2: It's about sending a message, Dabney. Chester did a shitty thing and covered it up to make OP pay for it. OP did a thing and had his cover up being Chester's lack of knowledge, and Chester paid OP back thinking he did his best to help. "Damage my car and make me pay for it? I'll gaslight you."

Your comment about “Good people trying to be evil” just reminds me of the one comic where Batman says “The difference between Clark I is simple. Deep down, Clark is a good man. I’m not a ‘good man’…”

OPs payback in the freezer story is way better than stealing it or any other plan. There's no cops, no risk of retaliation, and in the end he even got to keep storing his ill-gotten gains at his neighbours place for months after.

Story 2 can be summed up in two words: Lawful Evil. OP clearly has a code of conduct for how they exact their revenge, and I respect it.

Story 1 the poor "Pro Bono Lawyer" ... why did he have to suffer under this? Because at that point OP is going from justified action to being an asshole to innocent people!

rSlash is like a gummy bear. You can’t listen to just 1 video, you listen to a dozen and you still want more.

OP: this scheme is elaborate, yet fruitful. Rslash: COMMIT CRIMES

Story 2 scared me for a min! I thought OP was going to let the meat thaw out and refreeze the penny to the top of the ice causing chester and is family to potentially get very sick. I was getting so mad but then goes on to explain his little plan and I started to relax. By the end of it I had a sile on my face.

I have to disagree w/ your take on #2, what OP did was a great revenge. Stealing the meat or vandalizing the guy's home would make him wary, and potentially escalate the situation (and since he's dealing w/ a prepper that could end very badly). And his goal wasn't to get the meat, just to punish the neighbor, the neighbor decided to give him the meat so it was a bonus, not the goal.

Per Dab's point about "why and elaborate revenge instead of just stealing meat" -- The cops might not do anything due to no witnesses, but the dude would know. This way, OP gets revenge and retains plausible deniability even with the victim.

Hold on, the meat story is clever & done the best way, he's keeping the peace with his neighbor & getting revenge on him without the guy realizing it so he's cluelessly trusting OP without realizing the guy screwed him & I love that. If it was stolen, the trust would be gone & he'd be sour towards OP, instead we've got him ticked at his own self because he believes the meat went bad & because he wasn't reachable during the time, the blame falls onto him, way better form of revenge in my opinion. Props to the elaborate plan.

I agree with the other commenters. Leading Chester to believe the meat had gone off was genius. The best (ie: most effective) villains are the ones you THINK are good guys.

It's hilarious that even after the pandemic people still make fun of preppers. Imagine chuckling to yourself about your neighbor's canned peach collection while you're starving to death.

Dude, you’re nuts. OP’s revenge on Chester was perfect, because Chester was unknowingly in on his own revenge. Perfect

The freezer story: You couldn't just take it. He would then try to get you back, and so on and so on. Plus, where are you going to keep 3 freezers full of meat. This way, he gives you all the best and stores it for you, plus has to get rid of the rest by himself. Feeling like it was his fault and how wasteful and costly it was. That's just priceless!!

The first story left me with some questions. Why did this rich land owner have a pro Bono attorney? Why was the pro Bono attorney so deeply emotionally invested in a guy who beat his wife? Let alone one who isn't even making him any money? Now, I'm all for abusive people tasting the wrath of the law, but I feel there's some context missing... Not sure if I believe it's a real story about real people.

“Why would anyone beat their wife?” Ahhhh Baby Dabney (sp?) so pure and innocent. I love it!

I love OP in the second story, commiting a crime over something they literally cant prove.

The weird part about the lying neighbour is, the neighbour doesn't sound like that bad of a guy, he didn't get angry at OP for not saving his food, he accepted the storm caused the issue, and then offered some of the meat to him for the dogs, instead of just binning it, AND let him store some of the meat he thought was bad in the freezer as well, taking space and electricity, so why on earth would he lie about the dint?

The meat story: if OP just took the meat, Chester could have legitimately claimed OP took it since OP had access to it, unless OP took the trouble to stage a break-and-enter (and risk screwing that up.) Instead, OP only went to places he could legitimately go to, called Chester as told to, and got the meat only because Chester was an idiot. Any fingerprints, etc., would be expected based on what Chester asked.

14:57 but then there wouldn't have been a story to tell nor would have gotten the superior feeling of a evil mastermind 😂

"Why would someone do bad things?" -> that's the innocent child mentality. Most kids are not bad. Most criminals are not born as horrible people. They learn this stuff.

the reason op went so elaborate was to make it so chester still trusted him

I saw some people refer to wife beaters as wife pleasers to change its connotation and I love it sm

OP who made Chester get rid of the meat from his freezer played it smart once he found the penny and fuse box when checking up on Chester's house. OP got a load of free meat which would had cut his food shopping and Chester knew nothing that OP had any involvement to his "spoilt meat".

I thought the meat man was going to flip the breaker for a few hours, but replace the frozen penny cup. I'm glad he wasnt that unhinged

Gonna have to disagree with the revenge stance, it wasn't overly elaborate. It was perfect, he did everything he wanted whilst keeping the peace. Genius move

Story 2: that kind of pro revenge is what non-confrontational people are capable of 😂

Disagree about the freezer revenge. It was a perfect execution and not terribly Byzantine, it required OP to make perhaps 4 moves. The fact the neighbor gave him the perfectly good steaks was not anticipated but an additional benefit - to the entire neighborhood! I say this one is - the mot juste and beau geste.

14:55 Oh R/Slash it wasn’t about stealing the meat, it was the psychological torture of having the neighbor give away perfectly good meat from his own hands.

The freezer story is a good example as to why Dabney reads prorevenge stories and doesnt write them. What he suggested would be pettyrevenge at best or a good way to get jailed at worse.

Completely disagree on the meat story. His revenge was so much better and meaner than rslash gives it credit for. If he made it obvious that he did something the fued would escalate. But OP got him to give him the meat and he thinks OP is doing him a favor by taking it. And the feud is over. OP wins.

story 2 cometary: i think he wants to maintain friendly relations, plus if he was caught with the meat in his freezer he would be reported for theft with proof. the way he did it was perfectly executed cuz there is no way to prove his wrong doings if the neighbor ever got wind of his plot

Rslash misses the point. The revenge in the 2nd story isn’t about taking value from the neighbor. It’s about making that neighbor choose to waste his own money by throwing out perfectly good meat, because he didn’t bother to check his own freezers to see that there was no thawing and leaking. The bonus was the neighbor giving the meat away. But simply stealing the meat would have been more petty than having the neighbor be tricked into giving away the meat himself. Besides, breaking and entering is a criminal charge and the police investigation could be more robust than the purely civil manner of a struck car on the public street.

I was worried for a minute that all that meat was going to be thrown away. As long as it was shared with animals, it doesn’t sound so bad to me.

Story 1: it seems a bit too convenient that OP throws a "he’s a wife beater" at the beginning… almost as if he wanted people to be on his side before displaying how ruthless he was. Maybe it’s true… but OP doesn’t seem too concerned anyways

Story 2: Yeah he could have just stolen some meat and gotten a few hundred dollars of meat. But doing what he did he got who knows how much meat (a quarter of a cow can cost roughly around $2000). Plus three chests of meat could be somewhere between $10,000 and $25,000 based of a very very rough google search.

First story is not a real story. Sounds like an ad for that lawyer. Basically the entire story is "this guy is bad, but we won't talk how bad exactly. I won in court against him, but we won't talk how exactly. And I mess with him after for a bit, there we will talk". See? There are no core elements of good story! No substance! It is an ad.

Great example of why insurance is bullshit. "someone hit my car." yes it looks that way but you should still pay out of pocket.

Nah Rslash, the whole point of op doing the penny trick was keeping the peace while getting his money back with months of delicious meat. Blatantly stealing it causes unnecessary stress with animosity directed towards you, so you can never feel entirely comfortable in your own home. Silent revenge is the intelligent strategy It's like the difference between a monster and a germ, both are bad but one silently eats you from the inside.

Controversial opinion: I don't think you should be able to make anyone homeless, regardless of what they did. Even criminals get a place to stay.

Nah, I think what the OP did in the 2nd story was so much better than just going over and stealing meat from Chester. If he'd been seen by neighbors carrying armloads of meat, he would be in jail right now for stealing. All he did was make Chester believe his meat had defrosted - how is that elaborate?

Story 2: i disagree, OP is an evil mastermind, you see, if OP did what you just said rSlash, OP break the trust, and that's it, OP will never have another chance at messing with the neighbor, OP is just playing the long game by keeping the trust he have with the neighbor.

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Starting off the day with ProRevenge always puts a pep in my step.

With story #2 I thought the meat had already spoiled, and I figured OP would turn the power back on and put the penny back on the ice. Then the neighbor would be eating spoiled meat and getting super sick over the following months.

Op tricking his neighbor into thinking the meat was bad is actually more evil since you keep his trust to choose to exploit later on

The claim that fallout range dooms a person is false. You're doomed if you are outside and get hit with actual fallout. The reason to have a shelter with supplies is to stay inside and out of the falling radioactive dust until that dust settles. People claiming that being within fallout range have a few minutes to get into their shelter and then have to wait about a week for the dust to settle before bugging out. As long as you're not within the actual blast range.

Rslash: "WIFE BEATERS DESERVE TO SUFFER" Me half listening: "dude its just a shirt, calm down"

There's nothing wrong with the meat revenge. Stealing a bit of meat wouldn't have hurt the guy as him having to throw out/give away ALL the meat. And what was OP gonna do? Hide the meat in his freezer and when the guy comes with the cops to search his house, claim that that was his meat and not the guy's? He got free meat for months dude. The guy had to spend so much time carting meat around the neighborhood begging people to take it for their cats and dogs and would have STILL had to throw a lot of it away anyway. A revenge plot isn't only delicious when there's little effort involved, it's the results that matter. In fact I would have put in even more effort (after all the meat was gone) by making sure I told him I ate all the steak and then watch him try to figure out why I never got sick. Hell I would have made videos of myself eating steak all the time and sent it to him just to be a dick about it. It would hurt more because of the unnecessary effort.

That's what I thought about wife-beater shirts too! "Why would we glorify these shirts?" was my young-minded question hahaha

I definitely don't agree with anyone beating anyone, but the real morale of the story there. Either don't get married at all, or only marry with a Pre/Postnup.

Rslash sounds like the worlds least sneaky thief "why take someones food in a way which is legal and doesnt raise suspicion when you could... break a window piss on the carpet and blatantly rob a mans fridge?"

OP in 2nd story could have let the meat defrost for a couple of days, then turn the power on again and in the meantime reprepare the cup with the penny on top of the ice to put back into Chester's freezer as soon as it went back to the right temperature

Nah, other people are right, OP's plan with the meat was perfect. Clears of any suspicion since he didn't actually steal anything. He used the guy's own system against him. It also put the guy through more trouble since he now has to deal with all his "spoiled" meat. If he'd stolen it, he'd have been the #1 suspect, and even if the cops couldn't nail him for it, it would have likely started a feud between him and the neighbor that could have come back on him, including possibly another busted up car. HIs plan was just elaborate enough imo. Meanwhile you're literally encouraging a crime, lmao.
