Has anyone ever actually thrown their DP/DH’s clothes out of the upstairs window during a break-up?

AIBU to think this only happens on TV?
Same with cutting crotches out of trousers, cutting up suits and ties, spray painting his car etc...?
Just watched a film where the woman throws everything down from the window upstairs.
Do people do this? I’ve never seen anything like it IRL and wondered if it actually happens. What’s the worst you have seen/done?

Carefully lifted the top off an M&S steak pie, refilled it with dog food, and fed it to him.

Revenge is a dish best served with mash.

I was really worried that was going to say 'poo' instead of 'food'!

However, I'm not convinced it would necessarily be easy to tell or cause much upset. If it was a cheap pie anyway, containing mushed/mashed up meat, how would you necessarily know that it was meat earmarked for humans or earmarked for dogs?

Was it Kit-e-Kat, or maybe Whiskas, that used to advertise that their product was tested by/perfectly fit for the consumption of humans as well as pets?

I was once on my way to a birthday party with DD who was about five and we watched amazed as a TV was tipped out of the window. The talk of the birthday party was what had happened as various other guests had seen or heard some before and after.

My neighbour threw not just his clothes but all his things into the stair. Loose. She then neatly bagged it all up. And took him back.

My ex-H and I were trying to work things out after his affair when I found 2 shirts in his wardrobe that I hadn't seen before.
Turns out his girlfriend had bought them. I couldn't believe it! I cut them to shreds and left them hanging there. He was livid and said I was petty.

I took a pair of underpants, turned them inside out and gave them a good rub in the loft insulation and put them back in his drawer.

I sent my first dhs clothes to the blue peter mozambique appeal (many years ago) Grin all he had was left was what he stood up in!

The best row I ever saw was my opposite neighbour throwing the cutlery drawer out of the front door, down the steps and across the road and screaming 'you are a fucking bellend arsehole' Grin never did dare ask what is was about, they are still together 20 odd years later though.

Damnit I read the first few pages of this thread and started to wonder urgently if I might the one of the people who was throwing something else. I recognise the description and starting to wonder if a pp is my neighbour

No, but I did once have a neighbour who woke up to find his (flash) car had been spraypainted on all four sides - some very specific allegations of infidelity and "lying cheating bastard" across the windscreen

Didn't need to be Sherlock to work out what had happened, or who the culprit was!
