Hell Hath No Fury

A friend of mine had this posted on FB the other day, I couldn't pass it up.



  • After 37 years of marriage. Jake dumped his wife for his young secretary.

    His new girlfriend demanded  they live in Jake and Edith's multi-million dollar home and since the man's lawyers were a little better,  he prevailed.

    He gave Edith, his now ex-wife,  just 3 days to move out. She spent the 1st day packing her belongings into boxes crates and suitcases.

    On the 2nd day she had to movers come and collect her things.

    On the 3rd day she sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining room table by candlelight put on some soft background music and feasted on a pound of shrimp a jar. of caviar and a bottle of Chardonnay.

    When she had finished she went into each and every room and stuffed half-eaten shrimp shells dipped in caviar into the hollow of all of the curtain rods. She then cleaned up the kitchen and left.

    When the husband returned with his new girlfriend all was bliss for the first few days.

    Then slowly the house began to smell. They tried everything cleaning,  mopping and airing the place out. Vents were checked for dead rodents and carpets were cleaned. Air fresheners were hung everywhere. Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters during which they had to move out for a few days and in the end they even replaced the expensive wool carpeting. NOTHING WORKED.

    People stopped coming over to visit. Repairman refused to work in the house. The Maid quit.

    Finally they could not take the stench any longer and decided to move.

    A month later even though they had cut their price in half they could not find a buyer for their stinky house. Word got out and eventually even the local realtors refused to return their calls. Finally they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place.

    The ex-wife called the man and asked how things were going. He told her the saga of the rotting house. She listened politely and said that she missed her old home terribly and would be willing to reduce her divorce settlement in exchange for getting the house back.

    Knowing his ex-wife had no idea how bad the smell was he agreed on a price that was about 1/10th of what the house had been worth, but only if she were to sign the papers that very day. She agreed and within the hour his lawyers delivered the paperwork.

    A week later the man and his girlfriend stood smiling as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home.

    INCLUDING THE CURTAIN RODS.:)


    When you finish laughing it should be remembered that the moral of this story is to never underestimate the power and fury of a woman scorned.  See you later for more Aimless Ramblings.

  3. I saw this on fb too and it makes me laugh just as much now. Highly appeals to my sense of justice :))
    Itching powder in pants and socks and in the bed/pillows is also rather effective, allegedly :)

  9. Hate to disappoint all you revenging women.
    We men hate those stupid rods. No function at all.
    So the first things that leaves the house after the Mrs, are the useless curtain rods.
    Sorry.

  11. Isn't this so much better than cutting their ties in half and cutting the sleeves off their jackets and shirts?!

    This was even better than putting a kipper in his car engine!

    Many hugs,

    Ami
