We've all been there. You're standing in line for something, and behind you is a screaming child; and, to make the situation worse, his or her caretaker seems oblivious to the temper-tantrum happening in front of their eyes, and makes no effort whatsoever to fix the situation or quell the kid's demands. But how far would you go to get revenge?

According to Eater, one man went so far as to order 23 apple pies to exact his own punishment in the form of disappointment. After standing in front of such a duo while waiting to order at Burger King, listening to the child curse at his mother, throw his Gameboy and repeatedly demand the sweet dessert, the man bought up every single last pie in the place — and no, we’d assume he wasn’t actually planning on eating them all. He then turned to walk away, glancing back to watch the family learn that there were, sadly, no pies left.

A purse full of large tywraps and ducttape would have mitigated the situation in a heartbeat.

My son saw a Bissel carpet sweeper in the corner and he wanted it like nothing he had ever wanted before. The meltdown that followed when I told him he had to stay in his seat was one for the Guinness Book. Within minutes, his sister decided to join in on the nuclear meltdown.

Don't forget the travel size Wild Kingdom tranquilizer dart gun.

These should be distributed on all airplane flights, to subdue terrorists, screaming infants, people who can't fit their carry-on luggage into the overhead bin, people ahead of you in line for the lav... At the end of the flight, the ground crew could load the unconscious passengers onto the baggage claim belts, where they'd go around and around until they wake up or somebody claims them.

kids throwing a tantrum in public and their parents ignoring it is like a fart analogy. You don't mind smelling your own but no one else wants to.

Benadryl? Must be some pretty wussie, passive children.

I thought that nothing short of a tranquilizer rifle with elephant juice and multiple rounds worked any more.
