AIBU?

Send a glitter bomb

78 replies

IWantToDoIt2 · 07/05/2021 18:25

Reading the recent thread about glitter bombs which I never knew existed. I really really want to send one to my ex boss. He was a complete dick, treat me really badly to the point I actually lost a lot of self confidence after working for him and needed to go on antidepressants. It’s been 3 years now and I’m so much more confident, but I still get pissed off thinking about the dick. Now I know about glitter bombs I’d love to send one as he is a complete clean and neat freak in the office.

YANBU - Yes do it
YABU - leave it, 3 years have gone by.

Am I being unreasonable?

I mean if you're that petty and unable to move on then you do you but personally I'd suggest it's a huge waste of money. Plus awful for the environment.

I do occasionally think how satisfying it would be to post a box of dog shit to my awful, awful, awful ex-housemate. She made life so miserable. I haven’t lived with her for...8 years?

When someone really gets in your head it’s really hard to get them out. But ultimately, glitter bomb of dog shit won’t help. And will probably just add sorry that they’ll find out it was you and then in some small way they’ll be back in your life which is the opposite of good.

No don't do it
You left the job

He shouldn't affect you anymore and you are wasting head space thinking about someone that was dick to you

If he's a sick to his staff he will experience that and high staff turn over. That's enough. Roll your windows down when you next drive and let that man out of your head!

DeusEx · 07/05/2021 18:34

Also it’s possibly assault.

Don't waste your emotions or time on this.
Move forwards not backwards.

InFiveMins · 07/05/2021 18:35

I say go for it

Lol glitter bomb isn't an assault! Itsjust a waste of OPs money

Theunamedcat · 07/05/2021 18:36

Well you will certainly be the last person they think of......

Seventrees · 07/05/2021 18:37

The dog shit is a better idea. Better for the environment.

The patriarchy tells women to be polite and reasonable and accommodating even when others treat them badly. I think women should be encouraged to embrace their anger a bit more.

I would say it is your feminist duty to send the glitter bomb.

I'd consider it money well spent as it would put a smile on my face every time I thought about it.

Huh? What?

Annoying somebody with tiny bits of plastic is assault now is it.

Causing someone to have to get the Hoover out is a criminal offence!?

I've heard it all now.

GlitteryDickBomb · 07/05/2021 18:44

YANBU

Make sure it's the one with tiny dick confetti in, as well as glitter.

DioneTheDiabolist · 07/05/2021 18:45

Do it OP.

SymphonyofShadows · 07/05/2021 18:47

Do a Sharon Osbourne. I’m not sure what’s worse though, shitting in a box or sticking something up your chuff to send.

BiscoffAddict · 07/05/2021 18:56

I’ve been thinking of doing exactly the same thing. I’ve also dreamed of telling this that I think he’s a horrible cunt. I’m fairly certain he’d have no idea it was me because so many people hate his guts.

Blueskytoday06 · 07/05/2021 18:58

Do it! As long as there's no comeback

Oversize · 07/05/2021 19:01

Dog shit/glitter bomb combo!
A shitterbomb.

I can definitely think of someone who deserves this.

That made me burst out laughing

TinyGlitteryDicks · 07/05/2021 19:04

Go for it OP. Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Doing it might make you feel like you've taken back control and that may help you move on.

AnonGlitterBomb · 07/05/2021 19:04

I personally think it’s a brilliant idea

IWantTDoIt2 · 07/05/2021 19:05

I don’t think so, I’m not the only disgruntled ex employee.

TinyGlitteryDicks · 07/05/2021 19:07

They're anonymous anyway.

If you're bothered about being traced, send one from the US. It will cost a bit more to get it shipped but really complicated legally to trace anything back to you.

Here's the link from the other thread. Not that I've bookmarked it or anything 😂.

isseys4xmastinselcats · 07/05/2021 19:10
