Every retail or service person has learned the hard way why you don't make exceptions for customers and guests. It's always the customer you think is level-headed, sane, and “gets it” who ends up being a woefully entitled complainer, review bomber, and exceptionalist. These people will go feral on you and make your life a verifiable living hell for a few weeks until they've done the damage they're seeking and disappear into the void of their miserable existence to ruin someone else's day. The c…

Rule number one of living in any neighborhood: don't become the enemy of all the town children!

This world is jam-packed with all sorts of wonderful people: people who are empathetic and honest, generous and fair, responsible and humble. Unfortunately, the yin to that yang comes in the form of an onslaught of entitled, cruel and selfish people who want everything for nothing and everything for themselves. They care not about anyone or their negative impact on the society that they benefit from—like a leech that's had more than its fill, growing fat unnoticed on a swimmer's leg. This is a…

When you work minimum wage jobs, like in retail, grocery, or delivery, for some reason, entitled people seem to think that they can lord themselves over you with no consequences. Sure, part of your job is to provide some sort of service to the customer, but you're certainly not their servant. Karens everywhere would disagree.

Lawns are often a great attraction and target for entitled neighbors. It's almost like they have a magnetic pull, resulting in an obsessive fixation—one single blade of grass overgrown or out of place sending the neighbor over the edge. But let's be real, living close to people can be maddening—being that they're a constant presence in your everyday life that you had no choice or control over. We can choose our partner, our friends—even whether or not we want to see certain family members—but n…

It never ceases to amaze me the ends that entitled people will go to and the mental hoops they will jump through in order to justify their behavior… “Hi! It's your old pal from Kindergarten here. I don't know if you still remember me, but I'd like my Pokemon cards back that I traded you for your cookie since I'm not using the cookie anymore, and the fat cells it gave me have long since gone away!” With that logic, anyone could ask for a refund for anything—at any time.

While on a family vacation , no one wants to worry about money. After all, the whole point of a vacation is to escape from reality for a little while, soak up the sun, and unwind. This man wrote to r/AmItheA**hole with a vacation related question. As he describes, he and his husband, their two kids, and their sister in law, are planning an expensive trip to a resort. The price is so high that the OP's sister, Camila, was wondering if he could pay her way. Camila is a college student who's not w…

How are these people wired to think that yelling at an underpaid teenager is going to change anything?

It’s quite possible that servers and retail workers have dealt with more unhinged behavior than just about anyone else on the planet. Sure, you might say, “But what about therapists? Don’t they deal with a wide range of behavior from their clients?” Certainly, but in comparison with these brave souls? Nope! We’re pretty sure that even therapists and psychiatrists have nothing on folks in the retail and service industries. Just think about it for a moment: all the entitled Karens, all the annoyi…

Few acts are as unforgivably unhinged as ruining an entire pizza. Yet, this girlfriend saw nothing wrong with scalping a whole pie, leaving nothing but the naked sauce and dough for everyone else to consume miserably. The topic of pizza toppings is hotly debated, with staunch defenders of questionable toppings like pineapple going head to head with those who deride the topping and all who enjoy it. We can all agree on one thing: Pizza is amazing. What isn't to love about saucy dough coated in c…

Even long-time servers are upset when entitled people throw a fit. It's always unpleasant, and it never gets any easier to be screamed at by someone. Even for this server, who's been in the industry for six years, a Karen managed to spoil their mood. As u/ravioliwizard shared in their post to r/TalesFromYourServer , “It all started when a woman asked for a side of butter…” The Karen immediately began to fret over her butter, even though the server had barely left her table. Then, the OP says th…

Once upon a time, my second job ever was as a merchandizer (vendor) for an unnamed beer company TM . At the ripe age of eighteen, I'd travel around from site to site in a barely functioning van, ensuring that our product was better stocked and more nicely presented than our competitors. I was somebody finally doing something on my own without an adult breathing down my neck and, with a fairly rural route, I spent a significant chunk of time driving and reflecting on whatever thoughts an eightee…

We've seen plenty of Karens who throw a fit over parking and Karens who desperately need to speak to the manager, but we haven't seen what happens to the Karens of the world who go camping.

These cyclists had no one to blame but themselves.

It all started with a Karen walking into a toy store...

We all know that Karens can be audacious, to say the least, but have you ever come across a Karen who tried to take a wheelchair from someone who actually needs one?
