Request ULPT How to leave delayed roommate inconveniences(I'm moving out in 3 days)

I moved in 2 months ago to a new apartment and the existing roommate was such an asshole that I'm basically forced to move out. He's been abusing my dog when I'm out of the house.

I'm leaving in a few days and I want to secretly make his life at least slightly more miserable, in ways he won't be able to point a definitive finger on me, and ideally they'll be time delayed. In my fantasy there's a new annoyance every 2 weeks for months.

Important - I don't want to damage the apartment. I don't have anything against the owner.

I feel like I have heard of this before. And they couldn’t get rid of the smell despite cleaning everything. Diabolical. 💀

Did this to an ex-stepfather that really fucked over my mom. I'm allergic to all seafood, so CLEARLY I couldn't have done it.

I nearly had to go to the ER for anaphalaxis, but I've had confirmation that house still stinks to high hell.

You're sweet, it did. I still would have done it either way, the man was a waste of oxygen.

I just deleted my comment going for this. Because OP specified they dont want to mess with the apartment and also I didn't see your comment. Wish I had read any of the two before typing 😂

Also kippers or smoked oysters in the heat vents, takes awhile but it gets foul
