Good Tenant Tells Their Revenge Story on Their Bad, Jealous Landlord

We've all wanted to get one over on a bad landlord, and this story feels like collective justice.

Anyone who has ever rented probably has a bad landlord story. Landlords have an obscene (and unfair) amount of power over their tenants, and they often exploit it.

Many people live in under-maintained properties, often paying the majority of their income in rent—and yet landlords still manage to guiltlessly exploit them! Landlords are often unregulated, and inciting legal action against bad landlords can seem like more trouble than it's worth.

This story was posted on the Pro Revenge thread on Reddit—a place where people celebrate getting revenge on those who have wronged them. It is a very community-focused thread (sometimes!), and everyone feels collective joy over the revenge against these horrid landlords.
