Top 32 Unpopular Opinions of the Week

What is right is wrong, and vice versa… in other words, there is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’, although there will be plenty who will disagree with that bold statement. The thing is, everything in this world is pretty much subjective, and we've invented morals to create some sort of order in society. Consequently, discerning what is truly right and what is wrong becomes an arduous endeavor. However, the rampant prevalence of extreme opinions has fostered the emergence of the dreaded phenomenon known a…

'We're sorry for any disappointment': Dude's Twitter thread sparks online debate around popular Southwest Airlines "wheelchair scam"

Who wants to be sitting on an airline for longer than they have to? Well—due to Southwest's unique seating arrangement, where no seats are assigned, and all seats are first-come-first-serve, the less honest among us are hugely incentivized to vie for priority boarding without having to fork out extra for it. The way people do this is by asking for a wheelchair before they arrive at their gate, which qualifies them for priority boarding from the airline. This frustrated passenger hit out against…

'Can't you just do it?!': Procrastinating Karen flips out when she realizes she has to wait on a waiting list just like everybody else; veterinary receptionist puts her in her place

When you're planning an extended vacation, any mindful adult considers what they'll do with their pet and what they need to do to prepare their animal for their absence.

'There was a queue of people waiting to be seated!': Entitled customers think they don't have to wait like everyone else

To echo some of the sentiments expressed in this post, it's important to remember that members of every generation can be just as entitled as the next—by no means does one generation have a monopoly in entitlement. The baby boomers have their “Karens,” we millennials have our "Heathers," and Gen-Z has, well, whatever they have. (Madison?) There's a reason why you need to constantly be on your guard when working in the service industry, and that's because you never know where your next encounter…

'The grin slid off his face': Employee outsmarts customer trying to exploit returns loophole

Navigating some companies' return policies can be an unnecessarily difficult experience that may drive you to look for ways you can circumvent their requirements and get a fair go at returning your unwanted item. At times it can feel like these policies are unnecessarily specific and cryptic: “Customer must return an item only when the thrush knocks on the last light of the third day of the second new moon—whilst wearing a hat made of cabbages." After a while of wondering what in the Tolkien yo…

'I charged her $5': Karen won't pay minimum transaction amount, has been secretly paying it anyways

For some people, it's not actually winning that makes their gears hum—it's thinking they've won. Let's be honest… they're so singularly focused on winning that they probably don't even realize what it is they were actually arguing about in the first place. The fact that they're not getting what they want doesn't matter as long as they feel like they've won. This is a problem you will run into time and time again when you engage with the masses in a retail or customer service role. When you're d…

Throughout your life, your superiors' insistence that you adhere to cumbersome processes and procedures will be a literal thorn in your side, causing you wasted hours and undue stress as you attempt to follow them. But—occasionally, things might just work out in your favor. When they do, it's usually owing to the fact that the superiors, who are insisting that these processes be followed, aren't nearly as good at following them themselves as they would like you to believe. In fact, they may rev…

They say you should choose your battles in life, but some people love to fight every single battle that comes their way. Maybe it's just the way they were raised, being taught that confrontation will always get you your way.

In a story told to the r/EntitledB**** subreddit, u/HBiggle shared a story of a Karen who accosted them while they worked as an attendant on a train. Being a train at…
