Welcome to our slash Petty Revenge, where OP tricks his stupid neighbor into robbing himself.

Our next reddit post is from Big Text. I rented a duplex in my early 20s.

My neighbor was a wannabe gangster type, and made the mistake of breaking into my vehicle one night.

I had a small SUV with a removable soft top, so the neighbor figured that it would be easy

pickings to just peel back the top and help himself to my stereo, amplifier, CDs, and some other

miscellaneous stuff. I discovered the break in early the next morning after it occurred.

I knew for certain who the culprit was. We weren't in a heavily populated area, and my neighbor was

well known for his thievery. I waited for him to leave his place, and when the opportunity arose,

I went around the back of his house and looked through the bedroom window to find that,

sure enough, my stuff was sitting right on the floor inside of his apartment.

I instinctively tried the window, and as luck would have it, the sash went right up.

Bingo! I hopped through and quickly surveyed the items laying around.

It occurred to me that I could get some excellent revenge here if I played my cards right,

so rather than just recoup my stuff and wind up in a fight over it, I borrowed a marker and

proceeded to write my name on all of my stuff, as well as a few choice items of his just for good

measure. I then climbed back out of my window and waited. When he finally came back,

I called for some police presence and explained to them how my vehicle got robbed,

and I knew that it was my neighbor because I literally saw my stuff through his window.

We knock on his door, and I can still remember the look on this guy's face seeing me in the cops

standing there. He wasn't even close to ready for that encounter, and almost certainly had drugs on

him, so he was very cooperative given the circumstances. I politely explained that I knew that he had

broken into my vehicle, and I needed him to return my stuff immediately or I'd press charges.
