Bookgirl is Begging the Question. Ouch.

So we all have that person in our life. The one person who, for one reason or another, we just loathe.

Maybe you're forced by circumstances to be nice to yours. My mother calls that "being a good hypocrite."

Maybe you'll likely never see yours again.

Or maybe you're full-on rude when you see yours.

But here's the question:

If you could get revenge on someone, in any nasty, twisted way your imagination can think up, how would you do it? We want details.

My only caveat is that is has to be someone you know personally. This won't be any fun if every single one of us writes about Dick Cheney and waterboarding.

I have this ex-brother-in-law. Or as I like to call him, Satan. Multiple members of my family have had restraining orders against him, not all springing from the same incident. Multiple incidents. Years apart. And while I admit that I've spent many years fantasizing about the creative ways I could kill him and cover my tracks, I'm pretty sure the absolute worst thing I could do to him would be to clone him, and force him to spend the rest of his life in the same room as himself.

And actually, the afterlife too.

I don't want him to have suicide as an out.

God, my life is boring. No one in my family has ever had a restraining order against them.

I don't have a good answer to this question either, which I suppose also makes me sort of boring. There are plenty of people that I loathe, but I don't have any creative ideas for revenge. I just seethe with loathing and try to avoid them. Boooooring.

A few years ago I would have said my cousin on my mom's side. He's a racist, ignorant, chauvinistic and arrogant pig.

We almost called the cops one New Years Eve for him attempting strangling my other cousin over a fight about the television remote.

But, it's been a few years since I've seen him. It's better that way. I honestly wish him the best. Nonetheless, it wouldn't kill me to see him end up in prison for his bad temper.

More often then not I just want to walk away or have the person evporate. But occasionally my arm twitches toward turning into a pimp hand. I've got three people on that list but I'm not telling.

I am not a person that holds on to anger very long. I tend to forgive, sometimes sooner then I should, but there is one person in this world I can never forgive and only hope horrible things happen to. I don't waste time thinking about it but if I did I would think being tied down on a ant hill with honey poured over would make a great start. Then I would lock him in a pitch dark room and tell him there was two boxes in the room. One with the keys to freedom and the other with a scorpion. Of course both would have a scorpion in them. Then I would put him on a hoist that would lower him into freezing water for two minutes and then pull him out and put him into boiling water for 20 seconds over and over again. But like I said I don't waste a lot of time thinking about this so sorry if my torture seems off the cuff.

I bet I know one of Pollys.... an I bet you do too.

I, dead serious, can think of no one I loathe. BUT I can think of plenty of ways to torture people.

Yappy dogs, bad movies/ music, extreme climates, etc.

What I wonder is what someone who disliked me would think to do to torture/ get revenge would be? (No one answer that, please)

[Bookgirl]

Alice, I bet I know ALL of Polly's.

Chance, I adore you more each day.

Dol, Come on--REALLY?? You're not even trying.

I'm not one to hold a grudge. Mostly, I don't even recognize those vile people exist and share my air on the planet.

However, there is one former English teacher that I would like to develop my own personal circle in hell for. Perhaps where she's forced to teach some of the most belligerent, moronic students one can dream up, in a windowless room with harsh flourescents and bright orange walls. The single text book entirely populated with Dr. Seuss.

I don't hate many people. I may not like you but we can probably still hang out. However there is this one person who yes, I would say I hate. It is my ex. Normally this wouldn't be a probably but he also happens to be in my circle of friends and general jack ass, not just to me by the way. But I don't actually wish him pain, did at one point and don't get me wrong if I can watch him squirm under some new girl's spell I’ll enjoy his pain with glee, but rather-much like Polly's POV-I just wish he would fall off the face of earth, cease to exist whatever. The simplicity of just not being around would be wonderful. although right now i'm happy with second best: ignoring each other and not speaking

[Pandora]

Finch, you know I'm totally down to kidnap the ex and drop him off in some random field and drive off?

[Finch]

haha that would be super. As long as it's not in the Palouse--I don't want him wondering back.
