I was only joking.

Yes. Human nature is not inclined towards turning the other cheek.
Just wait a good while so you have the surprise/shock factor. Plus you'll know it's worth it if you're still mad after what would normally be a reasonable "cooling off" period.

I'd like to see revenge on a cup of tea. Those bastarding bloody bags and their grinning faces of death.

Toilet & Bowels 04.07.2008 03:12 PM

Generally revenge is more fun to think about than actuially do, otherwise you're just sinking to the level of the person who got you mad in the first place.

Savage Clone 04.07.2008 03:14 PM

I've both enjoyed and regretted it, and sometimes I have regretted not taking revenge as well. When it's good though, it is so very very good.

Pookie 04.07.2008 03:15 PM

I once tripped a man over when he barged past me onto the train.

That felt good.

Glice 04.07.2008 03:16 PM

I've never had revenge. Hate sex I recommend though.

Depends on whether or not the the action which had led you to seek revenge, can be attributed to the person being 'evil' or not.

SuchFriendsAreDangerous 04.07.2008 04:04 PM

no, revenge is petty. its like an orgasm, it feels fanstastic, but only for a short while. and then there is the morning after, so to speak.

is it going to provide the public with a sweet spectacle of blood and guts?

if so i say yes. this regardless of whether the avenger or the target of revenge is the one to suffer.

take bush and iraq, for example--he wanted revenge on saddam for trying to kill his dad. now it's a whole clusterfuck, but isn't it amusign & all?

"it's not my imagination... i've got a gun to my back!"

Yes, go for it. I voted no because I did not know the details. Now that I do, I regret not voting yes. So I say yes, before you regret it.

i am not sure of that really. maybe in a religious sense, if you believe like dr. bronner that "one is all!", maybe. if you believe in karma, maybe, but wouldn't you then be an agent of karma yourself, then?

anyway, in a practical sense, i mean looking at history, when you hurt someone you just plain hurt them, and if they hurt you first the satisfaction of getting even is delicious. nobody likes losing.

my feeling towards revenge however is that it's best to retaliate instantaneously, and then let go. no need to fester with mental illness inside by holding grudges.

however, a person who needs revenge after a long time is most definitely a person who was left butthurt. if the revenge scheme doesn't work, i recommend calamine lotion.

Tokolosh 04.08.2008 09:53 AM

I only take revenge on people who fuck with my family.
Couldn't be bothered with the rest.

yes, served cold.

lies. instant retaliation is best. destroy your enemies on the spot. if they kill you, take them down with you, or at least hurt them so bad that they won't ever forget.

hahaha, my friend.

do you know one of the easiest ways to win battles? predict the enemy.
do you want something more predictable than impulsive reaction?
