petty

Clearly, Karen never learned the idea of "sharing is caring." Fortunately, this cookie enthusiast was ready to step up and deliver the lesson that needed learning. The fact that they just walked on, and carried on with their business was really the icing on the cake. Some people are just impossible to be reasoned with. Check out some more juicy Karen drama, with this Karen who wanted her tip back from a perfectly great waitress.

It's no secret that people tend to take things too personally. A statement about your own favorite TV show will be interpreted as an attack on their favorite TV show. An attempt to pass someone on the freeway can turn into an impromptu drag race. Here are some incredibly minor and absurd things people tend to react to as if they've been slapped in the face. There's just some petty stuff that that people are extremely passionate about.

This nasty neighbor should've just minded their own business, but instead they went ahead and tampered with the wrong lawn. It sounds like this particular Karen was just looking to stir up trouble wherever she could find. Check out some more lovely neighbors that detested each other over here.

If you get a job in the service industry it's not totally out of the question that you might encounter some testy characters that are determined to make everyone else's lives a bit more miserable and uncomfortable, simply because they absolutely despise their own jobs. You can develop quite the thick skin, and spicy banter to boot, if you work long enough in the industry. You learn how to let the infuriating interactions with entitled customers not totally get to you, while you juggle various rare insults from your fellow coworkers. It can be quite the scene. It sounds like these dudes were eventually able to squash their beef and some kind of friendship developed as a result. 

This Tumblr disagreement over whether or not this bread knife is real became a real debate with counterarguments, claims and diagrams. Frankly at first glance it looks like fake bread, but I guess that's why lawyers exist. For some more lawyer Tumblr stuff, here's a tumblr thread on ridiculous court transcripts. For another argument, here's a tumblr user absolutely schooling another on horses.

Some neighbors are far worse than others. Some neighbors actually go out of their way to create a terribly stressful, tense, downright unpleasant environment for everyone else around them. And then it's as if any complaints are just more fuel for their fire. The neighbors in this tale of malicious compliance sound like they're in a league of their own. There was just never going to be a winning scenario with them. 

Sometimes, customers end up being their own worst enemies. It's as if they're determined with unshakable fortitude to disregard the advice coming in from the very folks that are there just to help them out. Suffice to say, this customer ended up learning his costly lesson in the end. Dude's face must've been an exquisite painting of rage. 

Anyone who has ever worked in an amusement park must've seen some ungodly levels of petty revenge. Everyone has their breaking point, and amusement park employees must be tested like none other. You've got your entitled guests that refuse to not be sore losers, and you've also got a ton of people making horrendous messes everywhere. Fun stuff. 

The garden variety Karen is known for obstructive outbursts, and this one was no different when she convinced herself that an employee was trying to ruin her day. Even given an explanation, she wasn't ready to back down. For another Karen with nonsensical demands, here's a Karen who demanded a delivery driver check her groceries out.

Man oh man, this guy was his own worst enemy from the very start. Some of the world's more egotistical individuals end up going on to engineer their own failures. It seems like this guy was in the prime position to learn his lesson. Can't imagine what the look on his face must've been. 

Anyone who has ever moved into a new place knows that the experience can be marked by a bit of stress over what your new neighbors are going to be like. It can be a bit of a gamble. Sometimes, you think you're moving into a place next to a perfectly reasonable human being, and then come to find out that they're nothing short of a waking nightmare. The folks that are featured in this collection of ridiculous posts on the infamous Nextdoorneighbor app seem like they could be quite the handful. 

After this guy's coworker bullied the office mom to get his way, he stepped in to make sure his coworker's selfish pizza plan didn't come to fruition. The world has its fair share of entitled people and their wild demands, and a whole lot of people who get inadvisable but satisfying petty revenge.

We love to see blatant liars get caught up in their dishonest antics. This couple decided to weave a lie for the purpose of cutting in line at a baseball game. First of all, people who cut in line are the worst. Second, the way that this couple's lie ended up catching up with them is pure gold. The look of disbelief and rage that danced across their faces must've been a truly wonderful spectacle to behold. 

Bullies are the worst. This particular scenario involving a class bully has that sweet, fairytale ending though. The bully gave their classmate a hard time for a monologue that took quite a bit of courage to present to the rest of the class. The thing is, the bully very clearly took a shortcut on their own book report, and only watched the movie. So, their classmate asked just the kind of question that exposed the bully's cheating to the rest of the class. Everyone just needs to play nice. 

Man, you've got to love that energy. Sometimes, people let the greediness consume them. If you ever find yourself dealing with someone who is clearly blinded by greed, it really just falls on you to consider providing them the potentially helpful, yet brutal wakeup call that they glaringly need. Suffice to say, this independent contractor got the reality check he needed. 

Group work is the worst. Many of us have been in the middle of a situation where we are weighed down by having to carry classmates who refuse to pitch in on a project specifically designed to call upon everyone's efforts. Fortunately, this student had their wits about them and took just the kind of petty revenge that taught those lazy and entitled classmates a lesson. 

Check out another satisfying revenge tale with this student who did 60% of a group project, only to have the group try (and fail) to cut them out.
