Grab a pillow, you're going to need something to punch and/or scream into.

Every now and again, a video comes along that gets the people fired up, but rarely does Twitter content take you on a man-hating emotional rollercoaster quite like this. We. Are. Shook.

The Scene's video title says it all, really: "He cheated on her and now she wants to know why." Featuring an ex-couple sitting across from each other, the video sees our graceful heroine (who seems to be a woman called Kourtney Jorge) ask her "JERK EX" why he cheated on her multiple times.

God, just look at his smirking face.

This dude does not seem anywhere near remorseful enough.

"Oh, you started going through my phone," he says, when she presses him for a reason why he cheated on her multiple times. PLEASE.

"Why didn't you just leave?" he asks. Don't make us literally throw up in your face, guy.

Don't worry though, Twitter was quick to come to our heroine's defence. As well as just generally throw around thousands of enraged reactions to the whole thing.

While we can only speak for ourselves, the video is currently causing equally large amounts of enraged office conversations around the world right now.

While we can't verify that karma is real (it totally is) we can say that in this case, it seems that poetic justice has come swiftly. Observe: What seems to be the Twitter account of our leading lady herself. And she's loving life.

If she's happy, Twitter is happy.

Please Goddess of social media and all that is right and feminist: Let this not be an elaborate prank featuring model/actors and an experimental marketing team. Amen.

Obviously, Kourtney Jorge has been contacted for comment.
