'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…

Kid discovers he's the product of his birth parents' extra-marital affair, they try to go no-contact with him, he gets even by telling their spouses the truth

This kid doesn't know just how iconic he is for doing what he did. After trying to reconnect with his birth father, both of his biological parents sat him down over a video call and asked for his understanding if they go no-contact. Yup, you read that right. For a little backstory, the Redditor was the by-product of an extra-marital affair (both of his biological parents had spouses and stayed with them). He was primarily raised by his mother's grandparents, with his birth father secretly provi…

'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

'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…

43-year-old medical assistant offered $12/hour with no benefits for new position during interview: 'I walked out'

Receiving a job offer on the spot in an interview is supposed to be an exciting, game-changing moment. However, for this 43-year-old medical expert who had decades of experience as a certified expert and professional, the offer ended up being so insulting and so shocking that his reaction was anything but excitement. This Redditor explained how he was offered a paltry $12 an hour for a new position. Additionally, there would be no benefits if he had chosen to take the job. Thankfully, he had th…

Mother takes a stand declaring that she won't be attending any events that her 4-year-old and 6-year-old children can't attend: 'I said I wouldn’t attend if my kids weren’t invited'

Everyone likes to think that they're the exception to a rule, usually because they're so certain that they're so much better and smarter than everybody. The reality of the situation couldn't be further from the truth, and the truth is this: If you think you're the exception, the rule exists for you. This couldn't be truer than when it comes to parents who think that their kids should be an exception to “child-free” events, either bringing them anyway without saying anything or making some drama…

'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…

'Fire me and I fire back': Irresponsible telemarketer gets let go, enacts payback by stinking up the bathroom for 6 months

'Fire me and I fire back': Irresponsible telemarketer gets let go, enacts payback by stinking up the bathroom for 6 months

The anecdotes about this telemarketer have made it crystal clear that he's the problem. His form of petty revenge after he got let go only further proves that he's got a twisted mind. Creative, mind you, but twisted nonetheless. The Redditor who recounted this story begins with some background information about how as a teenager, he blamed his girlfriend for having a bathroom accident in his parents' vacation home… and that's not where bathroom accidents end in this story. Of course, it shows e…

Entitled parents of 7-year-old try to cut the line at Disney World, cast member schools them: 'Feel free to get in the regular line if you want to ride together'

Theme parks can bring out the absolute worst in families. You're likely to see anything from screaming children to obnoxious teenagers to entitled parents. In this story, you get a little bit of it all. Here, we've got a theme park attendee who was waiting in a single-rider line and saw a family of folks right in front of them, who clearly wanted to ride together but had no desire to wait in the regular line as the wait time was over an hour. Of course, when it was finally their turn, the paren…

'It’s not his fault if I can’t sleep': Tenant gives neighbor who always plays loud music a taste of his own medicine, sabotaging his party

It sounds like Dave had it coming! After shrugging off a series of complaints from his neighbor about playing loud music well into the middle of the night, it was time for Dave's comeuppance. The Redditor who shared this story first made it known that he tried his best to be polite and understanding when he voiced his concerns to Dave, to no avail. Dave laughed it off and made it seem like it wasn't his problem. It's the laugh that definitely triggered something in the Redditor. When he learned…

College student proves professor wasn't reading their weekly essays, continues getting the same grade with minimal effort: '[I] wrote half a sentence then typed some gibberish'

College student proves professor wasn't reading their weekly essays, continues getting the same grade with minimal effort: '[I] wrote half a sentence then typed some gibberish'

Has anyone else had the sneaking suspicion that their professor was doing the bare minimum when it came to grading essays? Of course, if students are encouraged to try hard, shouldn't their teachers lead by example? In an ideal world, yes… but this is far from an ideal world. Here, we have a college student who was assigned short weekly papers that ultimately amounted to just 10% of the grade (each paper was 1% and was graded out of 10). After the first six weeks of the course, the student was…

Spooky Season can bring out the best and worst in people. On the one hand, Halloween is the one time of year when people of all ages can be pretty much as ridiculous and as extra as they want to be and get away with it.

To commemorate this strange time of year, we have compiled a list of the top 20 mildly infuriating Halloween-related debac…

Resident exploits loophole in HOA policy, now they can't approve changes to public streets in the community: 'They've stopped issuing violations altogether'

Every so often, you come across a story where a resident managed to successfully pull a fast one on their HOA. Obviously, this is a rare occurrence. The vast majority of our HOA stories involve residents getting into failed legal battles with entitled Karens who have nothing better to do than enforce unnecessary rules and regulations. However, here, we have a Redditor who discovered a loophole in his HOA policy and worked to exploit said loophole from the inside. As a board member himself, the…

Mother and stepfather try to force 16-year-old to take his half and step-siblings to the waterpark with his grandparents: 'She's worried the other kids will feel left out'

Family is difficult, perhaps even one of the most difficult things. Even when the relationships are fairly "traditional" and straightforward, let's be honest: what is straightforward? Is there even really a straightforward when it comes to family? The reality is that there hardly ever is, and the families that try and act like things are straightforward are the most likely to be hiding something. When families are more complex, mixed, or “blended” things get even further from simple. And who is…
