I've got a mate who bought his girlfriend a watch for Christmas 3 years on the trot.
She never wears a watch.

He was, briefly, the other week.
Fortunately the horrific car accident he was in not long after swayed things a bit for him.

that's rather a dramatic way to get someone back

I don't think he intended to crash.
Swerved to avoid a deer, hit a post, car ended up on its side, seatbelt clicked open on impact and he ended up pressed against the (smashed) side window sliding along the road with a back full of gravel and glass.

Lucky to be alive, really.

bloody hell
i wrote my dad's car off at 90mph on the motorway once. all 4 of us walked out without even a scratch or whiplash. it was about 15 years ago and i still dream about it. poor bastard, he was doubtless much less to blame, and much less lucky.

It's fair to say he didn't have a very good week that week.
Had the car not hit the post and been deflected, he would have gone over what was effectively a cliff edge. So he got lucky.

As I said, he got lucky.
