Everyone has an acquaintance or foe that they just loathe. Remember the 70’s; they had the battle of the stars. You know the show; they took your favorite “B” actors and put them on obstacle courses, eating contests (slight stretch) and the like to see which TV network team would win.

I enjoyed watching the dunk tank. I laughed so hard when they would sucker who ever was sitting in the chair. Let’s take this one step further. The amusement park, specifically the movies that had a scene that always had the pie-eating contest or the pie toss.

So put your foe’s name here_____ like Erkle, Pee-Wee, Arnold (Gary Coleman) you get the idea. Go to the Internet and download a picture of your nemesis or a picture of the high school bully from your yearbook and pin the picture on a dartboard and start throwing for the jugular.

Now, relax and enjoy your favorite pie, close your eyes and think of that pie throwing contest, you as the thrower. The satisfaction of the oozing pie drippings falling from the face of “the jerk”, the embarrassment of it all, ha ha! Isn’t artificial revenge the best!
