Growing up, it's important to listen to your parents. Generally, they have a lot of insight and experience that you lack at this point in your life—plus a healthy dose of resulting cynicism. Once you've graduated from their care and have your own place, you get to live your life on your own terms, free to make your own mistakes and live your own life—which often ends with you constantly asking them for advice anyways. We value our parents and their advice, but some parents have trouble letting…

Dealing with customers is probably the worst part of working retail or service jobs. It can be the best part too—but ten positive experiences can be overshadowed by one violent, screaming adult tantrum. If you've ever worked one of these jobs—you know exactly what I'm talking about. It may be no use crying over spilled milk, but that didn't stop this grown adult woman from throwing a complete tantrum over the temperature of it. After collecting a cup of “warm” milk from a location of a major co…

It sounds like this brother-sister relationship is almost impossible to repair at this point.

Traveling exposes you to all sorts of people, whether you want to be in their presence or not. The teen in this story is clearly used to dealing with entitled people, and the way he put this Karen in her place will surely resonate with that woman for a long time to come. “I saw this today and I can't stop laughing,” shared u/WhatTheH*ll431 to r/entitledparents. They wrote that while traveling on their city metro, there was a dispute over who should sit in the reserved seats, meant for disabled…

The Karens have been coming out in droves this May! These days, it seems like everywhere you turn on the Internet, whether it's Reddit or Twitter or TikTok, there's another entitled Karen making a scene. She could be throwing a fit at a staff member or leaving an unnecessary one-star review somewhere. For everyone's enjoyment, we've compiled a list of the top 10 Karens this week. For more compilations like this, here are this week's top choosing beggars.

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…

There is nothing more brutally cutting than the honest remarks of a child. Their lack of filter and a forming understanding of the world can bring forth some surprisingly perceptive comments that no adult would ever dare think—let alone utter out loud. These comments are usually directed at family or caretakers. They can sufficiently ruin days and demolish the egos of those people. That alone can be a lot to handle, but when they're directed toward complete strangers, it can be humiliating. Tha…

Aren't families wonderful? Having someone in your life who insists on making everything about themselves is challenging… to say the least. Hijacking events to suit her own preference is probably only the tip of a very large hidden iceberg when it comes to dealing with this stepmother. This couple found themselves the target of the husband's evil stepmother after her efforts to claim a grandchild from her own children were thwarted. Her ambivalence and disinterest toward them and their pregnancy…

Maybe the in-flight movies aren't good enough for this woman and her son. When traveling and preparing for a flight , there's a lot to remember: passport, luggage, wallet, keys, and more. But most people remember to bring something to keep them occupied during the flight, too, whether that's a book or a pair of earbuds to listen to music or a podcast, or to watch an in-flight movie. This wouldn't seem to require much planning ahead, and most flights will hand out earbuds in case you forgot your…

We've all been on flights where families try to negotiate with other passengers so they can sit together.

Pokemon cards are something that, at this point, are loved by kids and adults everywhere. As the original Pokemon has aged into adulthood, we've continued to share that joy with the youngsters. Of course, there are always going to be people who, thinking they're clever, seek to turn a profit off of the altruism of others, disguising their wants as needs and playing the victim card whenever possible to try and guilt trip people into giving them things beyond their better judgment. This must work…

“I know the law better than you,” insisted the American tourist who was visiting another country.

The audacity of this woman!

If you read the original poster's title as ‘Hitachi Fun’ instead of ‘Hibachi Fun,’ like me, you were expecting a very different thread.

Taking everything and leaving nothing—that's generally a good sign that you're in the wrong. Operating at extreme ends of social behavior and acting in ways that speak to these extremes is going to rub a lot of people the wrong way—regardless of your belief or justification. As has been said a hundred times: We're all the heroes of our own stories. Everyone has a justification for their actions in their mind for why they've done or said something, even if everyone else is telling them that they…

Decorum in a situation you've seldom encountered can be difficult to discern. You suddenly find yourself overthinking every movement, act, and word that comes out of your mouth to try and seem like you know what's going on and belong in that situation. So, then, what should you do when you have a contractor in your home? I'm sure we've all shared in the awkwardness of this experience at some point. Are you meant to try and help them or offer assistance? It would be polite to offer them a glass…
