Sabine County, Texas resident Timeshia Brown took very calculated revenge on her husband Patrick, 'congratulating' him for having a baby with another woman in a newspaper classified advert.

"I would like to say congratulations to Shara Cormier and Patrick Brown. They are expecting a baby," the message read, before the knife was twisted in: "Hope you both are really in love and I hope it works out. Always, Patrick’s wife, Timeshia Brown."

One reader posted a snap of it on Reddit where it quickly exploded, though there were no details as to which paper Timeshia's remarks ran in.

"It's about TIMESHIA got a divorce amirite?!" one user joked.

While the advert has been shared thousands of times already it is unlikely to achieve the heights of a Gumtree ad seeking a housemate to dress as a Walrus, which director Kevin Smith is to turn into a multi-million dollar horror movie called Tusk.
