Yep, we have the same term here, quite fitting too.
I'm the same as you, retribution is easily gained and I rarely hold remorse for delivering it, but ignoring the situation knowing they'll (usually) ramp up and tee off (which effects their mental health and overall lives is retribution in itself. You mention the enjoyable aspect of watching them get bent out of shape so you know exactly what I'm getting at. For most of them being ignored is the worst thing possible.
You speak of kinetic measures and I am all for it in the right situation, I've delivered such asshole-mitigation techniques in the past to great effect...I guess one must make the decision based on the situation at hand, then act accordingly.
As @bozz said, these people's reactions rarely help their cause but, as always, it's never their own fault.
Lol, I think you and I have some stories to swap if we ever get together out away from the people and electronics. Yeah, kinetic measures have a rather limited use case but sometimes nothing else will do. Think I will be stealing your ' asshole-mitigation' phrasing 😎
Ha, bozz ain't wrong. They can't help it, all they know how to do is Dig That Hole.
Oh yeah, I reckon so too, loads of good stories and many laughs as well as many WTF bro's as well. I think a wise man knows when to walk and when to get kinetic and understands how to tell the situations apart and how to work through the decision quickly. And sure, borrow/steal my phrase, it's one that applies universally.
Great track, thanks for dropping it.
