This isn't this man's car, but apparently her idea isn't a new one!Break-ups are awful, but divorces have to be way, way worse. When you have promised to love, honor, and commit to a person for life and that turns out to be just a few years instead, it's bound to take a toll. One woman in Minnesota took matters into her own hands when she dumped all of her ex-husband's things on their front lawn and offered them up for free.
Crazy, right? And yet, her reasons may have been justified.
According to her, he was a "cheater," which I know because she spray painted it on his car and the police can't touch her because everything she did was on her property and to her car. Take that!
Look, in the realm of crappy things we do to one another in the name of love, this is a funny one. It could have been way worse. At least it isn't evil or violent.
Evil would be if she shot her husband and his presumed lover. Evil would be if she maimed him in some way. Those are wrong. This is just cathartic for her and entertaining for us.
Since I don't know the couple, I have no way of saying whether he deserved it. Maybe she is insane and a liar, to boot. Maybe he never touched another person and just wanted to get away from her. After all, it's easy to imagine that someone who does something this angry is probably a little bit difficult to live with.
Still, if he cheated and lied and left her for a younger woman, then yeah, this is funny. She could have resorted to violence, and since she didn't, she gets an A+ in restraint from me.
Let's just hope the couple, who was married in 1997, has no children, because then it would be less amusing.
Do you think this is funny or awful?

I don't blame her one bit..I say you go girlfriend! She did awesome...I am all for what she did. Why should a person who has been done wrong..just sit there and accept it? And for those who said she should move on or not to air dirty laundry in public..give me a break.. The man cheated and everyone of the neighbors ,friends and family knew..so he is the one humiliated and being shamed not her! She should of went steps further as in sand or sugar in the gas tank at least a fuel tank replacement cost him a bit of money...
THAT COULD HAVE BEEN HIM, SO HE'S THE BLESSED ONE. SAD PEOPLE DON'T MAKE SURE ONE DOOR IS CLOSED BEFORE OPENING UP ANOTHER. MAKE SURE IT IS OVER WITH ONE BEFORE MOVING ON. WHETHER YOU HURT NOW OR LATER ISN'T THE ISSUE YOU DON'T WANT TO BE ANGRY ALSO. T H I N K
I don't normally comment on these, but this time I had to. My ex-husband was a serial cheater (unknown until after we split up) who not only cheated on me whenever possible, but had an affair for a year with my best friend of 14 years, bought property with her while we were married, etc. Sometimes you feel so powerless to act on how angry, frustrated, humiliated, and downright hurt you are, that you have to find SOME way of expressing it, of vindicating yourself, SOMETHING VENGEFUL. But if you are a normal human being with maturity and awareness of consequences, you know better than to do it in a way that will come back to bite you in the butt. My way was to write her a very detailed nasty gram on what I'd learned, the evidence I had, etc., and then went through all the emails she'd ever sent me of those types of things you sent to to groups of friends...and copy every single person she'd ever copied on any of those emails, including family, friends, and coworkers, thus destroying her angelic image. With him, I made him buy me out of the house for 50% of the equity, in cash, then took everything in the house and left him one washcloth, one towel, his bed, his dresser, and his clothes. Then I gave most of it away to Goodwill and made sure he knew about it. And yes, I felt a little better, for what it was worth.
I can't help snicker at this. Good for her!!!
My 1st ex-husband cheated on my with a 18 year old, then I was 28 years old.l She worked at a truck stop. I wish I had done that to him, but I didn't. After a while she did the same thing to him as he did to me. He deserved everything he got and more. He just had to have her. He married again and divorced again for the third time. He passed away almost a year ago. I feel sorry for him and also in the same instant I don't feel sorry for him at all. The reason why he cheated because he thought our youngiest son was not his. He was 100% his child. That was just his excuse to go f****** around. I can also prove that I never cheated on him by a DNA test.
You did good (Piita) ! Never feel guilty for what you did..they both deserved that and more. I may come off sounding mean and nasty. That I am not..but there is no reason not take out a revenge in some manner that is not physically harming another. I did quite a few numbers on my ex as well also including selling a bunch of his personal belongings, and household items that I sure as well was not going to let him have. There is no reason for any woman to sit there and let the anger boil and stay harbored under your skin for who knows how long. It is better to do something, then move on.
I would have done worse. I am mean and I don't care. I don't get stepped on and I have humiliated another woman before, to the point that she will run crying if she sees me. I laugh in her face too. I am not the person that anyone wants to mess with.
I would love to see every single one of these chicks who say, that's riduculous "I" would "never do that", bull! If you don't think like this every now and then, then you don't really care about the other person.
Sandra Davis, do people really Google someone before going on a date with them nowadays?
Sheesh, I've only been out of the dating scene for 7 years and it's changed that much?!?!
