'All that for a cup of soup': Karen's card gets declined so she gets her husband to yell at and rough up the young cashier, manager comes to the rescue

Sometimes people do things in real life that are just so mind-blowingly bonkers that it makes you question all of humanity. How did you get to here? What did the world do to this person to turn them into this monster? This… Karen. Ahhh yes, the notorious Karen in the wild. A Karen alone is already enough to make you want to punch a wall, but add a Karen husband partnered with them and you want to run through a wall. That's what happened to one person who used to work at Panera—she posted the st…

'Hire me. And then I'll leave': Karen demands a job and causes a scene after being told no, refuses to leave and is escorted out by security

There is such a thing as taking advice too literally…. and we've all probably heard the advice from parents (and other older relatives) that the best way into the workforce is to march into somewhere you want to work—best professional attire, CV in hand, and demand a job. The employer will be so taken aback, in awe, and blinded by the magnificence of your professional prowess that they'll offer you a $100k/yr job on the spot… as a receptionist. In reality, that's not how it works anymore (if it…

'I'm calling the land owners!': Furious Karen demands snowboarding teen be 'banned for life,' until she realizes who owns the property

This infuriated woman vowed, "I'm going to get you in sooo much trouble !" to a baffled 13-year-old snowboarder . Some entitled folks just don't understand the concept of sharing. It's one of the most basic rules of humanity, yet some people just want everything for themselves. This woman couldn't bear the thought of sharing land with a snowboarder — she should have known how ridiculous that is! As the OP writes, they just wanted to snowboard on their family's property. However, a Karen decided…

'He scanned his card at my till': Insanely entitled dude tries to steal guy's supermarket fuel rewards points in daring heist

It's no secret that entitled people consider themself to be immune to the social courtesies and rules that the rest of us follow. They think that an action is just fine as long as it gets them ahead. There are your bulk-standard entitled acts, and then there are extremely petty acts like this. There's such a minor benefit to be had in a “grocery store fuel rewards heist” that it's especially insane to undertake that behavior. Like, bro, you're really going to steal my $0.05/gallon fuel discount…

'[She] started poking me directly in my neck, SCREAMING': Entitled Karen fakes a gluten allergy, demands special treatment, then aggressively pokes server when she doesn't get her way

Working at a restaurant as a server on a busy night makes you rethink your life choices. Not only do you run about 15 miles back-and-fourth over the curse of the night, endlessly going from the hostess stand to the kitchen, but you're almost always treated poorly by the customers, the kitchen is raging with stress, and nobody is happy. To put it lightly, it's a war zone. One depraved server experienced the worst of the worst one evening when his restaurant was not only slammed with giant groups…

HOA Karen gets entire neighborhood banned from pizza place by giving terrible tip

Usually, bad tippers get off scot-free and—well, completely free. But this HOA Karen managed to get her entire neighborhood banned from a pizza place simply because of the sheer atrocity that was her tip. This brilliant story was shared to Reddit's aptly named r/r/f**kHOA subreddit, a community where stories are shared with a theme that you can probably surmise. Occasionally stories from this subreddit will trend onto Reddit's r/all front page, as this one did when it was originally posted. The…

'I live here!': Karen parks in family's driveway and tries to pretend it's her house

Look at me… I am the homeowner now. When someone is caught in a lie, it's always surprising to see how far they will take it. You might expect the liar to give it up, admit defeat—and admit to their deceit. And yet, most liars have been lying for so long that they don't know how to turn it off. They'll continue building up the fabrication—even after their lie has been substantially disproven. Reddit user u/Top-Studio8028 posted this thread to Reddit's r/entitledparents, sharing a story that he…

'Karens keep stealing from my garden': Garden grabbing karens get served when guy uproots the entire thing

Talk about a scorched earth policy. There's no greater satisfaction than sharing the spoils of a garden or fruit-bearing tree… but reaching your hands through someone else's fence in the dead of night (or when you've carefully watched to make sure they're not home) is just downright dirty—and not in an “I've just been gardening” sort of way. Given this guy has no penchant for gardening, this may not be the case here.

'I quit.' Manager quits after lazy Karen subordinate reports him to HR

It's incredibly frustrating when someone in your workplace gets away with downright obscene behavior, and no one is doing a thing about it. You might think that that's what the HR department is for, but in a lot of organizations, they're content to sit on their hands and let the worst offenders get away with anything but murder—just as long as they don't have to deal with any conflict or rocking boats. As a manager, this can present an incredibly difficult problem; you can be as accommodating a…

'Parents gave zero F's': Kids repeatedly interrupt woman's bowling game while parents ignore their children

This bowler struck out when they found their lane swarmed with little kids . As the OP tells it, she was trying to figure out if she was the a**hole in this scenario, because her friends think she is. The OP writes that while she was bowling with some friends on a weekend, she was in a lane near lots of kids. The weekends definitely are a time for parties, but the OP was annoyed that the kids kept going into her lane. Aside from the safety issues, the kids' parents wouldn't lift a finger to hel…

'It's wasteful': Dillydallying customer demands one—and only one—bag from retail associate, gets their wish

We've said it once, and we'll say it a thousand times: When making a demand from an underpaid retail worker who would probably rather be somewhere—no, anywhere else than standing here listening to you, you'd better choose your words wisely. You might end up with exactly what you wished for—just… not quite how you pictured it. (The monkey's paw curls .) That's what happened in this classic case of malicious compliance, which was shared to the popular Reddit sub of the same name by Redditor u/Lai…
