This bakery owner learned a difficult and expensive lesson after working with an influencer who didn't hold up her end of the bargain. As the OP shared to r/ChoosingBeggars, she decided to collaborate with an influencer who was the wife of a local musician. She gave this influencer a box of cookies, and received a 6-second video clip highlighting the products. Sounds great, but would it actually draw any paying customers? As the OP continued on with the story, they shared that they did gain a f…

What is it about the workplace that causes grown-ass adults to lose all common sense? Sure, they probably don't want to be there—but none of us do either, and we're not going around making life more intolerable than it already has to be. The similarities between what you experience in the workplace and middle school classroom are just a testament to the fact that most people never mature; instead, living their lives in the same perpetual state of petty behavior and hatred as they did when they…

Don't make promises to your kid that you can't keep! An entitled mom apparently had to figure that out as she navigated a text exchange with a stranger that quickly devolved into hilarity. As the OP explained, their dog had outgrown a couple of harnesses . They decided to just give them away to a good home, and soon they were texting with at least two people who wanted the dog products. However, as the OP shared, it wasn't all smooth sailing due to this entitled mom's demanding behavior . She c…

When you're a guest in someone else's home, you're on your best behavior; the last thing you'd ever want to do is upset the delicate balance of their lives and impose yourself further upon them. That's how I feel when I'm in someone else's home, and I had always assumed that others shared in my anxiety-riddled tiptoeing. This turns out to not always be the case — in fact, there are those who would not only invite themselves into your home but expect you to finance and facilitate every facet of…

Some people have more money than common sense, and some people have so little common sense that they lose all of their money. Imagine being born on third base and getting caught out trying to steal second; that's the level of competency we're talking about in this thread. This Reddit user describes the situation at hand: Their entitled brother has decided that he wants to get married after squandering his inheritance on bad crypto investments. Because he's never had to work for anything himself…

Back in his day, kids used to walk to school uphill both ways — backward, with their legs tied together and while balancing a razor-sharp scimitar atop their head. Apparently, these entrepreneurial youths also used to knock on people's doors during blizzards and sub-zero temperatures in order to offer their shoveling services for a fiver… Next, they'll be telling us that Minecraft is evidence that the children yearn for the mines . It might be frightfully cold out, but that didn't stop this ent…

Buying and selling items means interacting with random people who want your stuff — and sometimes they're a bit kooky in their demands. One person shared their experience with this. As they wrote on the r/ChoosingBeggars subreddit, their sister had to deal with this strange potential buyer as she was trying to offload a stroller. Right from the beginning, the potential buyer has an odd way of speaking, which probably didn't help their argument. They wanted the seller to hand deliver the package…

Interacting with strangers is a curious thing: Two people with a lifetime of experiences… thoughts, ideals, goals, and passions; colliding together for a single moment (or mere moments), resulting in each person forming the static two-dimensional projection that is their impression of the other person. How was that person in that moment? There are so many ways to define or categorize this: Were they amiable or antagonistic? If antagonistic, was that born from a lack of understanding — or a conf…

Isn't this kind of thing illegal?

“Never look a gift horse in the mouth”… I'm certain there has never been a more appropriate time to use this expression. In this case, this entitled a-hole and his wife killed and dissected the entire damn horse and are now complaining that it's not winning any races.

The line between entitled Karens and satire is so thin these days.

Some people want everything for nothing, and you'd better not dare stand in the way of that ideal. These entitled people, Karens, and choosing beggars, wanted the world to be handed to them on a silver platter. Their shared ultimate superpower of narcissism is fueled by an undying sense of entitlement and a complete and utter lack of even a shred of self-awareness. Keep reading for this hearty helping of fresh trending entitled people; consider yourself lucky if you don't run into them in real…

Dealing with people is the worst part of any job. Even those who have somehow escaped a 9 to 5 existence and have managed to make a living or side hustle — doing gig or contract work — still have to deal with this.

There are persons in this world who want far more than they would ever have to give — and they still want more than that. These entitled “choosing beggars” want everything for nothing and won't settle for anything less. They can be encountered in the marketplace of the face-books and lurking in the corners of Craig's list. It's highly likely, if you're an artist or freelance worker, they'll barge their way into your DMs and demand a free commissioned piece.

There are some people in this world who consider themselves to be above it, despite that sentiment being entirely unearned. Their unwavering unabated demands and unreasonable expectations put undue weight upon the rest of society's shoulders. They insist on this course of raging against the world when someone dares to stand in the way of their obstinate importunity. These persons are our “Choosing Beggars”; they want everything for nothing and won't stand for any less for any more. Read on for…

There are people on this earth who possess a complete inability to conduct themselves rationally. If they're getting a service performed for a bargain out of goodwill, they're going to want to negotiate a better rate. Even when they're getting handed something for free, they're going to feel as if they're entitled to more. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that we're raised to expect more out of our lives than the world can reasonably deliver—but these choosing beggars sure do take tha…
