This is a question "Needless to say, I had the last laugh"

Celebrity autobiographies are filled to the brim with self-righteous tales of smug oneupmanship. So, forget you had any shame, grab a coffee and a croissant, and tell us your smug tales of when you got one over somebody.

Thanks to Ring of Fire for the suggestion

i don't think he'd have wanted it
brian was a decent bloke, always had a smile for anyone and would be the first to offer help to all who needed it. unfortunately, brian was also a bit of a nutter. he'd talk to lampposts, accuse dogs of stealing his pocket money, that kind of stuff. because of this bizarre behaviour, i was about the only friend he had. any time he went anywhere, he'd have kids calling him a freak or a weirdo. it never seemed to bother him. there were all kinds of wild rumours about what he got up to behind closed doors, none of which were true. people were always giving him a hard time.
scroll forward ten years and brian has his dream job as a cameraman, even filming in bosnia during the war there. most of the kids who'd looked down on him have never left home and have crappy, minimum-wage jobs or are on the dole.
brian could definitely claim to have got the last laugh, but i really don't believe for a second that he'd want it.
top bloke.
