A Reddit user has sparked online amusement with their tale of petty revenge against a selfish older brother. The sibling, forced to vacate their room and denied access to shared Netflix, found a satisfying solution – strategically removing batteries from their TV remotes.
The ongoing feud stems from the brother’s consistent refusal to share his space or resources during his visits. While the sibling typically avoids their brother by making alternative plans, a rare opportunity arose when the brother left his Netflix account logged in. Seizing the moment, the sibling enjoyed 24 hours of streaming before the brother changed the password.
This prompted the sibling to take drastic, but ultimately petty, measures. The sibling now removes batteries from all remotes before leaving their room, ensuring their brother can’t enjoy the TV during his visits.
Redditors have weighed in on the situation, with many expressing understanding for the sibling’s actions. Some point out that the parents, who seemingly condone the brother’s behavior, are not innocent in this ongoing conflict.
While the sibling’s actions may appear petty, they are a testament to the enduring power of revenge, even when served in small, battery-powered doses. The siblings, both lacking in sharing skills, could benefit from a refresher course in “playing well with others.” This story serves as a reminder that sibling rivalry can be a powerful motivator, especially when it comes to controlling the TV remote.
