'This is all because of my Aunt Karen': Couple brings dog to family reunion, Aunt Karen throws tantrum after dog biting incident, gets comeuppance

Some people are legitimately named Karen for a reason. Of course, in this day and age, one would not understand why a new parent would consider that name for their child, given all the connotations accompanying it. However, it seems that there is some cosmic force at play here that manages to name certain people Karen precisely because of those connotations. If this story serves any particular purpose, that purpose would be its role as evidentiary support for this philosophy. Here, we have an a…

Entitled Karen customer demands extra pickles at fast food restaurant, manager soaks their burger in pickle juice: 'Enjoy!'

Entitled Karen customer demands extra pickles at fast food drive-thru, manager soaks their burger in pickle juice: 'Enjoy!'

Working at a drive-thru means dealing with the full range of human behavior. That means handling customers who are everything from impatient to entitled to unkind. Every so often, you'll get a generous customer, but that's about as common as an eclipse, so you might as well figure out how to talk to these wretched individuals. Here, we have a new hire who was working her second shift ever when a group of entitled men were passing through and talking over one another while ordering. Naturally, t…

'I want the window! I want the window!': Entitled 6-year-old tries to force passenger out of her assigned seat on plane, passenger won't budge

Just because someone throws a fit does not mean you have to give in to their demands. On the flip side, just because you threw a fit does not mean you have earned what you want. You would think that these sentiments would be common knowledge to any decent, empathetic human being. But alas, you'd be surprised. Here, we have a Redditor who specifically booked a window seat for her upcoming flight because the one thing she genuinely enjoys about flying is looking at the clouds. Of course, this exp…

Undervalued employee proves their worth, gets $10,000 raise after Office Karen tried to get them fired: 'I turned off every automated task I had ever set up'

Undervalued employee proves their worth, gets $10,000 raise after Office Karen tried to get them fired: 'I turned off every automated task I had ever set up'

Sometimes, the only way to prove that you're a valuable employee is by showing and not telling. After all, most folks need to see things to believe them, and this employee had spent the better part of the last five years at their company automating systems so that tasks were far easier to complete for everyone involved, including their technologically challenged coworkers. However, clearly, their value was underseen, unnoticed, and not reflected in their salary. After an office Karen decided th…

'I paid $22 for slabs of fat': Male Karen demands for a refund for brisket sandwiches he never ordered, manager stands his ground

'I paid $22 for slabs of fat': Male Karen demands for a refund for brisket sandwiches he never ordered, manager stands his ground

It's remarkable what entitled people think they can get away with if they stir up enough of a fuss. Here, we have a male Karen customer who called up a sandwich place demanding for a refund after getting just “slabs of fat” on the brisket sandwiches he ordered at around 6:30 pm the day before. The manager with whom he was speaking asked for his order confirmation number so he could confirm the refund, and it quickly became that this was information the customer did not have not because he lost…

'I just wasn't feeling snarky last night, so I tried something new': Server's wholesome revenge turns a raging Karen’s tantrum into a heartfelt apology

Working as a server sounds fun in theory; the free food, cash tips, and you basically get paid to talk to people all shift. But then you get stuck working the dinner rush, when all chaos breaks loose, and you find yourself dripping sweat as you run from table to table while getting an earful from the non-avoidable Karen customers. Some customers are lovely and understanding, but then there are the ones who turn a small mistake into a full-blown screaming war. We’ve all seen it—the over-the-top…

'You want your seat, go sit in it': Entitled family sits in the wrong seats at the movies, 10-year-old son refuses to move, ruining the moviegoing experience

Movie theater etiquette has certainly become a topic of conversation these days. Folks online seem to be split over the trend of theatergoers taking photos of the “Wicked” title card, with cinephiles finding this behavior to be distracting and obnoxious, while “Wicked” fans are finding their disgust to be pretentious and lame. Of course, unfriendly and selfish behavior at the movies goes beyond “Wicked." Here, we have a 24-year-old who treated herself to a solo date to the movies and picked out…

Karen demands bank teller reprint her debit card 8 times, teller maliciously complies: '[Your] employee tricked me into paying $100 worth of fees'

Difficult people often find themselves dealing with difficult consequences. At the end of the day, they have no one to blame but themselves for being, well, difficult . Here, we have an entitled Karen customer who didn't like the fact that the bank's printing machine smudged two numbers on her new debit card (this did not affect whether or not the card worked). Now, if this happened once and the customer politely requested to have it reprinted, that would have been fine. However, this lady coul…

Bartender gets even with entitled Karen customer who never tipped after crossing paths outside of work: 'The money she just gifted me was just karma'

It's not every day that you get to call out an entitled customer after the fact. Most of the time when this happens, employees choose to be the bigger person and smile through the pain instead of giving the aggressor a piece of their minds. However, every so often, you get the opportunity of a lifetime to stand up for yourself and say what you couldn't say in the moment. Here, we have a bartender who was repeatedly never tipped (not even a cent) by an entitled Karen customer who worked at the n…
