“As every good Hayduker knows, any repressive society offers vast opportunities for excitement, humor and payback for those willing to assume minor risks on behalf of freedom and the repressed. For too many people, resignation to al of that repression is the lock on their lives. The ideas and the fun in my books are the key that will open that repressive lock. The tumblers of that lock of repression also respond to the picks of humor, satire and irony. Indeed, the great power of irony is its subtle and lasting effect. My idea is to lightly etch a lasting scar on your mark’s memory (rather than the direct force of blunt, troglodyte trauma).” Easy-to-follow plans for fun with bumper stickers, a can of snakes, farts, homophobia, smegma, televangelists and more.”

Beginning with the inspiring motto, “where the law stops, the vigilante begins,” Get Even: The Video of Dirty Tricks is a rousing call-to-arms to “turn the tables on your tormentors” presented in the form of a psychotic infomercial. In episodes such as “Fecal Attraction!” and “Fowl Play,” vengeance techniques are couched in sleazily endearing SCTV-style parodies ranging from the elementary (junk mail sign-ups, Krazy Gluing the locks) to the finer points harassment. Hide a chicken bomb (raw chicken parts + milk, placed in a glass jar) in your enemy’s couch, thrill to the knowledge that the noxious gases will deliver a putrid explosion a week later—“use chicken against the turkeys who try to keep you down, baby!” Low-tech electronic sabotage of asshole co-workers, bumper-sticker warfare, character assassination via the posting of flyers, as well as some cautionary CYA suggestions to stay clear of The Man should set the most long-suffering viewers on the payback trail.
