Normally, bad karma is when something comes back to haunt someone.

Reverse karma is when something comes back to haunt, but it haunts someone else, not the original person that deserved the karma.
JOHN (angrily): Where is the remote Jane!?
JANE: Why do you always assume I have it?
JOHN: Oh, I'm sitting on it
JANE: That's an example of reverse-karma because your actions came back to haunt me instead of just you because you wasted my time and hurt my feelings!

Get the reverse-karma mug.
