Update: Neighbors demand to park their car in next-door's driveway because they 'don't use it': 'It's not my problem that you decided to buy a vehicle that didn't fit your property'

Update: 'I'm going to have it towed': Neighbors demand to park their car in next-door's driveway because they 'don't use it'

This person told their neighbor over and over that they simply could not park on their property. Some people just don't like to take no as an answer. Instead of hearing “no,” they hear “ask again tomorrow!”. Instead of hearing “you can't park your car here," this neighbor heard, “you can park your car here and deal with the consequences.” On the r/entitledparents subreddit, u/Jeleki2020 posted a very, very long tale about their crazy neighbor. It's a long read, but the story and subsequent upda…

'Privacy isn't necessary': Top Mildly Infuriating Parenting Moments of the Week (May 16, 2024)

There is a specific dynamic that emerges when you spend time at your parents' place as an adult. You start to notice all the crazy house rules, patterns, and habits that make absolutely zero sense. However, no matter how many times you try to explain a more efficient way of doing something, there is nothing you can do to change their minds. Living with my parents during that time back in 2020 resulted in a clash of personalities that thankfully did not lead to complete and total combustion. Sti…

20+ guests share the most bizarre house rules they have encountered: 'No closed doors. Bedroom, bathroom, closet, whatever'

Being a guest in someone else's house means adjusting to new rules, some of which can be, well, ridiculous. Sure, there are the common ones that visitors are used to, such as taking off your shoes at the front door or house rules regarding how pets are treated (how they're fed, where they're allowed to go, etc.). Unfortunately, these folks had to deal with a lot more than the average house guest. For instance, one of these guests had to endure leaving doors open at all times. Yes, that included…

'Who do you think you are to be here?': Top Karens of the Week (May 9, 2024)

The sun may be coming out this week, but the Karens of the world seem to be shining even brighter. This week, we have a plethora of Karens to dissect, analyze, and fear. The first is the spouse of someone serving in the military, who is demanding free stuff everywhere she goes. Then, we have a Karen who tried to make a customer service representative try on her sweaty earbuds. Next, we have a Danish Karen with the hair and everything who accused innocent tenants hanging around in their own apar…

‘Count me out…’: Man expects rent-free accommodation in brother's new home despite years of estrangement

Indeed, family is precious, and you should make every effort to love and support them during good times and bad. But when will you be able to acknowledge that your family members might be taking advantage of you with their constant barrage of absurd demands? The story that follows is written from the viewpoint of an angry sibling. The original poster (OP) and his brother did not share a close bond. Perhaps they were tight as children, but since OP embarked on his journey to adulthood, they’ve g…

'I paid good money for these tickets': Karen throws tantrum at "disruptive" audience members, usher sides against her, karma ensues

'I paid good money for these tickets': Karen throws tantrum at "disruptive" audience members, usher sides against her, karma ensues

Let's be real: very few audience members know how to behave at live events anymore. Perhaps it's partially our ever-dependence on technological devices, or perhaps it's just that we have set such low standards for ourselves and our attention spans. Here, we have a comedy show that had just started. This Redditor and her husband just got to their seats, and her husband took out his phone for ten seconds to send a quick text to his brother. He made sure to do this swiftly and with low brightness,…

'The three [Karens] were banned': Trio of entitled customers try to get sandwiches for free, guy behind them in line gets them thrown out for good

Most folks have had the unfortunate experience of waiting in line behind a Karen customer, but believe it or not, it could be worse. Just ask this dude, who ended up waiting in line behind three Karens. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/jarjarmullet , who silently watched as this trio of entitled older ladies kept giving modification upon modification to their order. This, of course, frustrated the sole employee making sandwiches as well as the long line of custom…

Fast food Karen throws back-to-back tantrums, gets herself arrested: 'Karen [ended up] sitting in the backseat of the police car'

It turns out that entitled customers are willing to go far for their extra ketchup! This Karen had the audacity to throw two ridiculous tantrums at the same McDonald's establishment within a short amount of time, as if the people who witnessed the first outburst would have suddenly forgotten. The result? She ended up in the back of a police car and wound up getting into way more trouble than she anticipated. The first temper tantrum involved not having the right amount of change to pay for her…

'Karma eventually caught a Karen': Top Karens of the Week (April 15, 2024)

Maturity and growth seem to be inconceivable concepts to the Karens of the world. These strange birds lack the self-awareness and the learning skills for serious self-improvement. Instead, they walk among us looking to project their frustrations and their entitlement onto their surroundings. This unfortunately means that the sane people among us are often on the receiving end of this unnecessary wrath. This week, we've got Karens throwing tantrums in the office, at a Gamestop, at a cosmetics st…

'Anyone want to donate a $15k Rolex?': 20+ Choosing beggars who are making the world a place

There are a whole lotta people in this world and plenty of winding paths down which you can walk. While some choose the long and winding paths toward making the world a better place… or at least being a decent contributing member of society… a bunch of them are walking the short path of entitlement instead. At a certain point, you might expect that grifting would be more work than learning or earning an honest means of getting what you need, but that would defeat the purpose, which somewhere al…

Kid wants a doughnut that isn't his, entitled parents won't tell him no: 'I refused a doughnut to a kid and then called his mom out'

You know… kids are dumb; it's really an undeniable and certifiable fact. In fact, it's not even a programming error rather it's actually one of the features of being a kid; you don't have to know everything or be responsible and can romp around; it's up to your parents, other guardians, or mining foreman to manage that for you and teach it to you in constructive ways. “You can't always get what you want” is one of those first lessons that you're taught in life, and has been an essential part of…

Guy upgrades parking pass to get even and take Male Karen's prime parking spot: 'This is what happens when you act like a Karen'

Guy upgrades parking pass to get even and take Male Karen's prime parking spot: 'This is what happens when you act like a Karen'

Let's be clear: parking spaces do not belong to you unless you legitimately own them. If you stir up a fuss with someone because they snagged a public parking space that you usually can get, that's the luck of the draw, dude. There's nothing you can do about it. Sure, it's frustrating but there is no injustice here. So definitely pick and choose your battles before you decide to throw a tantrum. This Male Karen did not think twice before yelling at an innocent driver. That driver didn't even ta…

'There is NO we. You don't live with me!': 15+ public meltdowns from entitled IKEA customers

Going to an IKEA is the kind of experience where if you yourself don't get into an argument with your roommate, partner, or family member, then someone else is bound to do it. With this in mind, let's all take a moment to acknowledge the amount of nonsensical garbage that IKEA employees around the world have to put up with when it comes to disgruntled couples, entitled Karens, and misbehaving kids. If the following list of anecdotes from this r/AskReddit thread serve as any indication, then it'…

'Do you know who my wife is?': Entitled bowler starts wrecking bowling alley, name-drops wife as he gets kicked out

Funny enough, this bowling alley has a three-strike rule for their worst-behaved customers. Bowling is a great way to pass the time for people of all ages. This person, u/Emmisbaby, works at a bowling alley in a college town, so at times, their customers get a little rowdy. It seems like every time you go bowling, there's at least one lane that can't act right. They're hooting and hollering at the top of their lungs; they're rolling the bowling baIIs way too hard into the guard rails as the lan…

'I just had my hair done!' Top Karens of the Week (March 24, 2024)

Spring is almost upon us, which means more flowers, more sunshine, and apparently, more Karens. That's right, Karens seem to be running amok this week in a variety of settings that range from nail salons to fast food chains to cosmetics stores. We may be in that strange period in between seasons, where one day you're wearing shorts, and the next, you're wearing your puffiest winter coat. However, rain or shine, shorts or winter coat, these Karens seem to have been ready to put up a fight with j…

‘It's your duty as a brother’: Privileged parents attempt to take advantage of their son to give their preferred child financial independence

Families are supposed to be your pillar of support, your safe haven, your anchor. But in actuality, not every family is the idealized, Hallmark-movie type of family. How would you react if your family simply wanted you to be there to maintain their opulent way of life? The story that follows is an account of a frustrated son. There has always been tension between the Original Poster (OP) and his parents. But as OP grew older and more mature, the relationship grew increasingly strained and the r…
