Retort

You spot a victim and wiat until someone passes your victim in the hall or down the street, then run up to your victim and mumble, "Boy did SHE give you a dirty look!"

Your victim naturally questions, "Who??" and you retort, "Mother Nature."

Submitter comment:

This was a favorite of the nasty boys in grade school.
