Netflix fan takes 'perfect revenge' after ex keeps using her account
The breakdown of a relationship can be incredibly upsetting, regardless of the reasons, but one woman felt compelled to take revenge when her "cheating" ex kept using her Netflix account A woman took the 'perfect' revenge on her 'cheating ex' who kept using her Netflix account despite their breakup. Relationships can end for a multitude of reasons and, sometimes, those reasons are extremely distressing and painful. A mutual separation that's handled maturely and respectfully is a goal of many once-happy couples looking to part ways. But, unfortunately, it's not always the way a breakup goes down. When a partner cheats and betrays the trust of the person they're in a committed relationship with, the psychological trauma can run deep. People can be left with serious trust issues and it's very difficult for the separation to remain peaceful and civil. One woman learned her partner had been cheating on her and decided to take action after realising he was still using her Netflix account and watching the shows they used to watch together. On the popular Petty Revenge forum on Reddit, the woman explained her response in a post titled 'My ex wouldn't stop using my Netflix, so I changed the profile name to 'CHEATER' and in toddler settings'. Elaborating, she said: 'So yeah, my ex cheated and we broke up but apparently still felt entitled to my Netflix. Made a whole new profile like we weren't even broken up. 'Watched our shows. On my dime. I didn't yell, didn't revoke access but renamed the profile to 'Cheater', switched it to toddler mode, just Peppa Pig, no violence, and max parental locks. Even the avatar was a sad cartoon monkey.' After seeing what the woman had done, her ex simply texted her one word: 'Seriously?' To which, she replied: 'Seriously.' After this final contact between them both, she changed her Netflix password and then 'blocked him'. On Reddit, she added: 'Enjoy your cartoons, loser. I'm watching Bridgerton in peace.' In the comments section beneath her post, people were keen to share their thoughts - and their own streaming-themed revenge stories. One person quipped: 'No Netflix 'n no chill.' Another said: 'I approve of this'. A third commented: 'I would have let him 'almost' finish a season and then log him out and change password'. Someone else declared: 'This should be the default punishment for anyone that betrays their significant other.' Another Redditor said: 'Netflix and breaking up is a whole new genre of revenge stories by its own'. And another shared: 'I let my ex use my account for six months until winter set in where he lived and I heard from mutual friends he was snowed in. THEN I changed the password'. Someone else added: 'I annoyed the hell out of my ex by locking him out of the Amazon account. He was really financially irresponsible and I didn't want to risk him running up the credit card. 'I also didn't want him to know where I was living so locking him out prevented him from seeing my shipping address. He was p****d because he was in the middle of some shows.'

Good Morning Britain 'turns into CBBC' as dinosaurs invade set
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Good Morning Britain raised a few eyebrows from viewers on Wednesday morning as the set was 'invaded' by dinosaurs. In celebration of the latest Jurassic World film starring Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey, animatronic dinosaurs made an appearance on the GMB set on June 18. 'Bumpy' and a velociraptor from The Jurassic World Experience at NEON in Battersea Power Station appeared on the show and caused a little chaos, baffling viewers just tuning in. Susanna Reid, Richard Madeley and Richard Arnold welcomed the dinosaurs on set and chatted with the 'handlers' about what visitors can enjoy at the London attraction. The hosts were then 'shocked' to find that a velociraptor had escaped its cage and crashed onto set, appearing behind the presenting panel. After thanking the 'handlers' for coming in, and attempting to stroke the velociraptor, Richard joked: 'Is anyone else missing Piers?' eliciting laughs from the whole panel. On social media, fans watching the show expressed their disinterest with many sharing how impressed they were with the childish content. 'Baby bumpys … give me a break #GMB,' said stevebristoluk. 'Talking to adults about a puppet dinosaur like they're children 🤦♂️🤦♂️ #GMB,' said FanOfTV05. Man_In_England commented that the show was comparable to the BBC's children's channel: '#GMB turned into CBBC.' Others were slightly more impressed by the change in the format, some enjoying the lighthearted change of tone. 'That dinosaur robot thing is adorable! Make it a regular guest #GMB,' said TheRealZoeMBE. 'That's not just any dinosaur…that's Blue! @GMB#gmb,' said EvTayWill20, referencing the first Jurrassic Park movie with Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. This isn't the first time that GMB has baffled fans with its surprising content lineup. A chaotic interview in May saw Richard Arnold interview Daddy Pig, a cartoon from the TV series Peppa Pig. More Trending During the interview, which is the first since the birth of the latest Peppa Pig character Evie, Daddy Pig got a little emotional and cried as he introduced the world to his daughter. On X, a number of people were quite scathing about the report, with some criticising the show for reporting 'drivel' and focusing on a made-up cartoon story rather than real news stories. James Abbott01 commented on X: 'Ofcom phones are ringing right now [to] complain is about Peppa Pig on #GMB… I'm being serious, viewers are not happy about Good Morning Britain talking to a cartoon'.
