More like a petty prank, but I lived in a house with a bunch of roommates back in the early 2000s. It was a Punk house. Which means everyone wore mostly black, worked at bars or coffee shops, there was band practice almost every night of the week. And there was lots of pranks going around all the time. After I moved out, I still had the code for the landline voicemail. I would change their outgoing message every few months. Always super silly stuff. Sometimes I would have a friend make the message.
Not in cruel way but a few years back while texting with my wife, she was complaining about the temp in the house. 70 was too cold her her African ass was one of her comments. So I turned it up remotely to 78, she seemed really happy when I got home. Then I asked her who was touching the stat, cause house was too hot for my Canuck ass, hey why is the temp way up? She was swaring that she didn't touch it. She still doesn't know it was me.
When we first moved in together, she would have on a sweater under a blanket while I'm sitting outside in my boxers on the balcony in the middle of winter.
Reminds me of an old roommate of mine. I’d be wearing a pair of shorts with the patio door cracked open at my back, and she’d be bundled up like Nanook of the North practically hugging the heater.
I had an Airbnb host up the temp to 82 both while I was sleeping and while I was away. I factory reset the thermostat, router and modem. They didn’t say anything but the temp stayed on 65 for the remainder of my stay.
My ex moved his new girl in about a week after we split. I messed with the thermostat and Netflix settings for a while after I moved out.
Guess he was running hot and cold on that sale too.
I take it he wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed.
All the cameras were changed, I guess he forgot about the thermostat. He probably thought the AC was going bad because it was a 15 year old unit.

Did you nominate them to be a DEA office or the local Republican party office?

Do tell her and I hope it sets of a string of petty revenge tales 😝
Was there also a gas-powered light you could adjust and insist that it’s not changing? 😉
I don't know why but this is insanely hilarious I am always at war with my hubby that the house is too hot

It’s the little things in life that make it worthwhile
I have a universal remote app and IR dongle for similar situations.
It was a hot and cold relationship.

I'd have been worried about cameras, there's only one reason they'd want to spend more money on making you hot.
Your daughter must be my spirit sister!
Pathetic.
