Woe to those who deal with sneering customers, conniving hotel guests, and Karens. In other words, I salute anyone who works in the customer service industry, because you have to be tough as nails to tackle these kinds of entitled folk. As shared by u/anna12o, one hotel guest, who was, of course, a Karen, was making her life especially difficult, when it genuinely didn't have to be. You know those types of people who pay for something and then just assume that buys them a one-way ticket to be w…

Nothing will stop a Karen who's in need of her caffeine! The concept of a line? Not on her radar. How about being polite to the barista who's taking her order? Nope. What about patience? Forget about it. We don't expect patience from the Karens of the world. How foolish are we at this point? This is 2023, after all! This thread was posted to Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit by u/HotSeaworthiness8479 , who was working at an understaffed coffee shop at the time that was also the most popular o…

Karens better beware in case they're dealing with this woman. Not only was she able to successfully file a restraining order against her neighbor Karen, but she also informed her employers and got her fired. That's A+ level sabotage right there. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit, and as many folks in the comments section pointed out, it is much more than your standard petty revenge story. It all started when this new neighbor Karen started throwing loud pool parties un…

This bizarre and completely unnecessary exchange did not help this Karen's cause at all. She accosted her neighbor demanding to know why he always dressed his two-year-old daughter in pink clothes. Her logic was that while girls traditionally enjoy the color, they deserve the opportunity to wear other colors as well. Listen, from an ideological standpoint, we're inclined to agree with this Karen's thinking. However, there is no way she is seeing what this young girl is wearing all the time, so…

Invisible disabilities, entitled people, and public transportation DO NOT MIX. Unless a disabled person is visibly crippled or maimed in some way, some folks simply don't believe that they're actually in need of special treatment. And nobody knows how to cause a scene over special treatment quite like a gaggle of Karens.

For this week's edition of the top five Karen stories, we're bringing you lots of neighborhood drama and cruel customers. Thankfully, for many of these Reddit stories, the folks who were at the receiving end of all this nonsense were not afraid to clap back. Here's a little preview of what we're dealing with here: (1) we've got an entitled neighbor who doesn't like the noise from people locking their cars at night, (2) there's the Karen with a meat allergy who surprisingly took issue with a BBQ…

This woman is losing her mind over some teeny tiny flag decorations . Sometimes you just wake up on the wrong side of the bed. And if you're this woman, you then proceed to take a stroll down the block, no shoes necessary, to yell at your neighbors. This woman was very worked up over her neighbors' property , and she spent several minutes screaming at the poor young folks who live there. To their credit, the young people who live in this place handled the woman's yelling with grace (and some mi…

Sometimes having a thorough knowledge of the law can work in your favor. Actually, come to think about it, I can't imagine a time where it wouldn't be handy to be well educated on the laws are you… (I will be Googling some things after this.) You never know when someone might be trying to pull a fast one over you and make you think something is the law, when, in fact, it is not and they are just using “the law” as a tactic to do whatever they want. A retired detective recently shared a story of…

One of these days, it'd be nice to step into the shoes of a real-life choosing beggar. Before you judge me, hear me out. As someone with very little audacity, it would be a fulfilling experience just to walk in someone else's shoes for a day and feel entitled to everything I wanted. I'm not saying I'd like to live like this for the rest of my life. If I did, I'd probably end up alone, embittered, and with no friends. However, just for a day, I want to know what it's like to walk into a room and…

There's a certain kind of satisfaction that comes with giving demanding customers a hard time, but there's also the satisfaction that comes with giving them exactly what they asked for. It takes a specific kind of person to order food at a restaurant and immediately threaten the server before they've done anything wrong yet. It's as if they're asking to be messed with in some way, which is exactly what happened with this demanding customer who we will refer to, unsurprisingly, as Karen. Karen i…

You can't have your cake and eat it too… and you should never voluntarily take a piece of an HOA's cake. For, that cake comes with a price—a blood price—that will bind you to their covenants and leave you vulnerable to petty powertrips from their bored aged board members who will go to any lengths to ensure that not a single blade of grass is out of line. About 10 years ago, this guy and his wife moved into a suburban neighborhood that had a community pool, which was only accessible to members…

Neighbors are only good for three things: occasional company, dog sitting, and gossip.

Being mistaken for a worker by a fellow customer is an embarrassing experience for all involved—they're embarrassed that they made a mistake, and you're embarrassed for having to rebuff a complete stranger when you were simply minding your own business with some mid-shopping dissociation. Usually, at this point, you'd both abashedly go your own way and pretend that each other doesn't exist like good strangers do when you eventually cross paths again in the store. This goes sideways when the mis…

Corporations like to hire Karens; don't ask me why… It's an enigma I could never make sense of. But a Karen can only fool so many until he or she hits an inevitable roadblock in the form of a regular, run-of-the-mill employee who makes an attempt to address the toxic culture the Karen has created. Every now and then, such an employee will interrupt the Karen's attempts at making them follow some rule created by a corporate suit 15 years ago. In this particular instance, a Karen joined a deliver…

Living next to neighbors offers a great sense of community along with lessons in mutual respect and reciprocation, but—depending on whom you're residing next to—it can also be a living nightmare. Getting stuck next to the wrong individual can be all it takes to turn a peaceful life upside down and send it on a one-way fast pass to Suffertown. It doesn't matter how peaceable of an individual you are: days, weeks, months, even years of living next to inconsiderate neighbors is enough to send anyo…

Some people never seem to understand that rules apply to them. It's as if they were never told “no” as a child and have since created some sort of warped alternative reality where their own rules are law and nothing else matters. In some ways, one might seem envious of this way of life. However, it's all fine and good until an authority figure reminds you that this is not La La Land. This is the real world, and in the real world, you need to have a driver's license in order to drive a car. We k…
