Karen customer gets banned from community group for not paying leader back £5: 'No pay, no participation'

Karen customer gets banned from community group for not paying leader back £5: 'No pay, no participation'

As the old saying goes, if you don't pay, you can't play. This Karen was a member of a community group that hosted various activities in the local neighborhood, one of which was run by the Redditor. This activity in particular was only £5 per customer, and yet, this Karen refused to pay the amount. Perhaps it was on principle, but instead, she pretended it was because she was waiting for her next paycheck. Now, of course, we are sympathetic to folks in situations like this, but the facts did no…

Karen tries to claim ownership of the place she has been renting for 20 years: 'I pay rent, so I own this house'

Let's face it: paying rent stinks. It's like setting a pile of money on fire every week just for the privilege of surviving and oddly reminiscent of paying mob dues. You have virtually no rights to the home, along with virtually no guarantees, and in a lot of places, you can basically be asked to leave or pay more arbitrarily at virtually any point. Still, if you're fortunate enough to have a place of your own, you'll come to find that you're basically still just renting from the bank anyway, p…

'It’s just a little longer wait': Entitled woman uses express checkout lane for full cart of groceries, petty shopper gets revenge by blocking her car in the parking lot

Nothing stirs up grocery store rage quite like the "10 items or less" lane offender. When one shopper noticed the woman in front of him breaking the rule with a cart load of items, he tried to politely call her out. But this lady wasn't having it, brushing off his remark and saying, "It's just a little longer wait." Then, her kids joined in on the chaos, running back and forth to add even more items to her pile until she had officially annoyed everyone in line, including the cashier.

'Granny on a mission': 82-year-old grandmother fights grandkid's Karen neighbor for tossing debris into their garden

This resident's step-grandmother deserves a shoutout! After all, she had the chutzpah and the audacity to confront her step-grandkid's Karen neighbor after she repeatedly treated him like poorly and thought she could get away with it. Thankfully, the kid had a secret weapon: his 82-year-old arthritic relative. For some more backstory, the Karen next door had a habit of actively dumping debris into the Redditor's garden. She also would get frustrated at the original poster (OP) for parking his c…

'Cut me in line?': Babysitter and 3-year-old kid get back at entitled line-cutting Karen by blocking her from leaving the parking lot

'Cut me in line?': Babysitter and 3-year-old kid get back at entitled line-cutting Karen by blocking her from leaving the parking lot

It's not fun to call out a line cutter. In fact, most folks do not consider confrontation with strangers to be their strong suit, and yet sometimes, there is no other alternative but to call these people out on their nonsense. Here, we have a babysitter who was purchasing a toy with the 3-year-old she was taking care of at the time. When it was their turn at checkout, the 3-year-old accidentally dropped the toy, which gave the impatient Karen behind them the opportunity to cut the line and insi…

Here is yet another tale of an entitled parent making their kid's wedding festivities entirely about them. However, for once, the bride and groom managed to win out in the end. Let's start with a little backstory. The Redditor had a tumultuous relationship with her brother and his wife that resulted in a mutual understanding that they would not be attending the Redditor's upcoming nuptials… that is, until their entitled Karen Mommy decided to intervene. On top of inviting the brother and his wi…

'Take up 7 seats?': 40-year-old Karen lets kids take up too much space on crowded train, passenger gives Karen a tough time for the next 20 minutes

It may seem impolite to criticize someone else's parenting choice, but every once in a while, it's necessary… especially if other people are being impacted by said choices. Here, we have a 40-year-old entitled Karen who, along with her two kids, was taking up seven entire seats on the train. This would not necessarily be an issue if it was a quiet, empty subway car. However, in this particular situation, there were more folks who were standing than sitting, including several elderly people who…

'I think my boss is tracking me': Nanny calls the cops on entitled Mommy Boss after discovering boss is tracking her every move

There is a slight difference between micromanaging and spying on your employee's every move. It doesn't matter what the job is, even if it's being the caretaker of your children. There has to be a boundary, especially outside of work hours. Here, we have an entitled Mommy Boss, who was already tracking her kids by placing devices on their backpacks. At least she was upfront about that with her nanny. However, after a few strange instances, the nanny started to suspect that her employer was not…

'Hey! You can't park there!': Entitled rich dude assumes delivery man is valet, gives him the keys to his car, backlash ensues

We all know what happens when you assume… This entitled rich guy saw a delivery man at a fancy hotel and assumed he was the valet on hand despite the fact that no one gave him that information and the delivery guy was not even wearing a hotel uniform. Still, assumptions were made and the ensuing consequences were laughable. After the entitled male Karen gave the non-valet guy his keys and left without any time to clear up the confusion, the non-valet knew exactly what to do. He gave the fancy P…

'Can you make her stop honking at me?': Entitled Karen refuses to wait for a green light, driver in front of her enlists help from neighbors to stop her

Incessant honking never helps. That's one rule everyone should learn when they start driving. Traffic is infuriating, but unless someone else is actively endangering other drivers or being reckless, there is no need to add fuel to the frustration. Your busy schedule is no more important than those of the other drivers on the road. In this scenario, however, we weren't even dealing with an insane traffic jam. It was a quiet evening in a suburban neighborhood, and because it was dark and there ha…

'I'm just here to do my job': Karen ignores gas station worker and gets blocked in for over an hour, ends up t-boned when speeding away after cops side with employee

When you try to out-Karen, a fuel truck driver, you're basically begging for karma to swoop in. This particular Karen found that out the hard way. The driver had parked his truck to make a fuel delivery, blocking all the front parking spaces at the gas station. Driving a Tesla, Karen couldn't be bothered to park a little farther away. She moved the cones and parked right by the door. When the driver politely asked her to move, she told him to "get bent." So, naturally, he parked his truck inche…

'What is up with these lunatics?': Male Karen boomer throws fit when injured younger passenger gets to board flight early, gate agent comes to younger guy's defense

No one enjoys waiting to board a plane when you're in one of the later groups. That being said, finding a scapegoat to externalize your frustration is not going to make your situation any better. Take it from someone who is almost always in boarding groups 7 through 9. This Redditor may have been young, but he had a doctor's note that gave him early boarding access because he was in recovery from a recent knee surgery, which led some folks to wonder why he was even on a flight in the first plac…

'She needs to nama-stay on her side': Karen hosts yoga classes in neighbor’s backyard, calls him ‘territorial’ when he asks her to stop

A few months back, a woman’s next-door neighbor, Karen, decided to start teaching yoga classes in her backyard. At first, it seemed harmless enough—just a few mats by the fence. But soon, the “backyard” yoga sessions started creeping over into her neighbor’s lawn. Before long, Karen’s entire group of yogis was taking over half of her neighbor’s yard every Saturday morning. When the neighbor politely asked Karen to keep her classes to her own side, Karen just laughed, saying, “It’s all one big...
