Posting useless spoiler after useless spoiler isn't funny. If you think it is I think you need to take your sense of humor in for repair/replacement.
I like my broken sense of humor. It adds challenge, and is more fun to attempt to control.
As for profit, this is why I call it Operation: Costanza. I'm having my fun playing the George Costanza role of taking revenge in an unusually elaborate, yet brilliant, way. I'm still netting emotional profit by the total mind screw I'm doing to my boss through the next weeks; also testing his character to judge how everything's going and such (personal tracking to make sure I don't screw up). He surprisingly passed one of my tests of character. Before the shitstorm came, I asked for a particular day off next week to hang out with my family, all this exploded not long after my accepted request, and I asked before the week ended if it was still on, after being nice and helpful all day, despite all the crap that went down. You can clearly see that he was backed into a corner, and I got my own personal proof, and initial markup/control sample of just how much control I really have here. Turns out, he can't be a dick, and take back my day off request, seeing as he still has respect towards my family, but not so much me anymore, and he's the kind of prideful shmuck that would like to keep his image above all else. He was forced into a checkmate, and kept my day off. After all the respect I showed him and everything, despite all of the above, he knew the kind of hot water he could get himself caught in if he made me work the day off he promised before the shit hit the fan. He knew I could redirect that fan and aim with an engineer's precision.
Add to it, since I was fired, he realized that without me, he's screwed, so he decides to keep me working so he's not so screwed, meaning I'm now back on payroll, and despite the crap he pulled, I'm staying out of my own free will (also to soften the impact of my almost-forgotten-about expenses, as intended, I still want my pay, dammit.), and made that clear to him that I'm not such a bastard that I would outright walk out on them and abandon all, and be a total dick overall; I could, but I chose not to, because I'm that kind of decent person. I even reminded them that I was even going as far as reducing my availability, but still working (going from full-time to part-time); all this, while he already has someone else hired to take place of the ex-coworker, before he fired me instead; and he's still sticking to keeping me fired despite me giving him the option to keep me on part-time. Their loss, I gave them a chance. I'm netting that profit while I still can so I can continue with my original plan of transitioning into doing design work again in a more dedicated level.
So emotional and material profit gain, and I'm still the bigger man in all this, so maybe a little spriritual gain as well. I'm being nothing but kind and merciful to him, he can't do anything about it, otherwise he'll just be the bad guy digging himself deeper, closer towards having to look into himself and have to fix himself, accepting what he has not become, but may have always been; and this is the cruelest fate I can think of delivering. Think about it a bit. The is the most evil use of the force of good I have ever devised.
Satisfaction of cruelty, while also being legitimately kind, and practicing what I've preached about being a good person as well. It's like looking into the face of evil, and watching it flinch. Nothing more satisfying than that.
EDIT:
Right, and also because I'm being nothing but kind, and not even flaunting it towards him; legally, I'm always in the clear, and nothing can be used against me whatsoever. However, any of his actions can be used in my favor. This is legally practical.
Looking back at all this; I still have no real way to properly measure just how in/sane I am as well. I am still wondering if all this is real, and if I should worry at all. Let me just say, I'm in such a state of happiness, I'm questioning reality right now. I'm expecting to wake up. I'm in a lucid state of happiness. If reality starts acting weird, and you get freaked out, I apologize in advance.
