When you’ve been screwed over by a romantic interest, it’s only natural to crave some sort of revenge.
To some, that might look like hitting the gym, buying a fresh new kit and taking hot fire pics to post on Instagram to show your dumb idiot ex what they’re missing.
To others, revenge is a little more direct.
A bloke named Daniel Johns (sadly not of Silverchair fame) over in the US learnt the hard way that dicking around the wrong woman can have some very unsavoury consequences.
Johns, of Kansas City, took to Twitter to explain that he “screwed over” his ex, but was so impressed with her retribution tactic that he had to share.
Basically, his scheming ex learnt his phone number off by heart and starting giving it to unassuming blokes she wasn’t interested in at the club.
The result? A very awkward text exchange that proved A) she’s getting attention and B) she crafty as fuk:

The tweet’s gone viral, presumably because every heterosexual woman ever can relate to giving a guy a fake number:
This is nothing new every girl has done this at least once in their life

Some men were quick to shoot Johns down though, wary that his tweet would give women some ideas:

And others saw the scorned ex as something of a legend:

I aspire to be this petty in life

Johns clearly missed a golden opportunity, though:

Our thoughts are with Jared at this difficult time.
