After being told to “get your sh*t and leave,” TikTok @lanachka730 filmed herself packing up her belongings—and quickly went viral. Her 16-second TikTok video, recorded on the floor of her closet, resonated with millions, racking up over 11.2 million views and 25.5K comments suggesting petty (but mostly harmless) ways she can make her ex’s life a little more difficult. Suggestions ranged from removing critical parts on the oven, batteries, and light bulbs to misting everything with milk on the way out the door (!).
