When you dump your prom date right before prom, they get their penny — uh, petty — revenge
This time of year, we love to hear everyone’s awesome prom stories — like the girl whose prom dress reveal made her boyfriend cry. Or the boy who brought Kylie Jenner as his date after being rejected. But every now and then, you hear a prom story that’s… less than ideal. Sometimes things just don’t work out — but there’s always a way to make the best of a bad situation.
That’s why, after being dumped days before the big night, this teen took her revenge in the penniest — uh, pettiest — way.
Did you catch that slip of the fingers? That’s because after Twitter user @panchal_maria‘s ex asked for the $95 he’d spent prepping for their prom, she gave it to him… in pennies. false
How legendary is that?
We can’t believe Maria’s ex had the audacity to ask for him money back after he chose to spend it on their night — then bailed. We applaud Maria’s ability to be the bigger person and pay him back. And we’d like to give a standing ovation to the way she chose to do it.
Especially after hearing he wanted the money so he could go to someone else‘s prom.
On Twitter, other users were eating it up — they even made a Twitter moment to commemorate the tweet.
But some thought that Maria’s former date had gotten off easy.
Girl you don't give him a PENNY. tell him if he can afford to lose a DIME PIECE he can afford to take another girl to prom. Ugh. https://t.co/4GQWN9TTcw

She was nice enough to put it in jars. See me I would've had them pennies all over his yard. Issa whole Easter egg hunt https://t.co/OLIBc0Po2A

I would've put it on a cardboard box and unsealed the bottom, so when he picks it up… bam. 😂

Still others were just worried about Maria’s big night.

We’re sure Maria will have the best prom ever. After all, all 9,500 of those pennies must bring her at least a little luck. Stay petty, Maria. And have a great time.
