Recounting retail horror stories can be a fun pastime when you've long since moved on. They bring up a sense of bittersweet nostalgia and don't usually cause your brain to swell with rage the way that they used to. It's not that Karens didn't exist in the past, rather you weren't aware of their species name — back in the good ol' days, you just called them a regular swear word. Over the years, only the really ridiculous instances stay with you, and most of the other miserable stories slowly fad…

All the fish in the sea are piranhas.

Firstly, a quick shoutout to Darwin's brilliant theory of evolution… the flaws in how humans have evolved are no secret to any of us. Just enter the nearest Mcdonald's — I dare say 15 minutes won't go by without some kind of incident occurring, most likely involving an entitled person who takes their 3-dollar burger very seriously. Evidently, some humans have not quite evolved as we'd have hoped, and are clearly deficient in brain cells. Particularly those linked with public decency. We all kno…

Without a doubt, the most soul-sucking industry in the world is customer service. You get firsthand access to the portion of the human population that hasn't quite evolved yet. The ones who lack an alarming amount of brain cells. Those with a very low IQ. The chunk that thinks they are God's gift to the world. Lord knows I don't miss it... I offer my sincere condolences to those of you that are still in this daily fight. There are too many human beings, strutting about with their nose high up i…

Reentering the office after Christmas can be particularly overwhelming. You'll find everybody huddles together, each recounting their own dramatic holiday saga, which usually involves a few or more ‘loved ones’. Granted, family dinners are like taking part in a reality show, minus the cameras. My personal motto that has served me well throughout the years: When in doubt, say nothing. Also, lie — a lot. Or rather, omit as many details of your life as you possibly can. Moreover, if somebody says…

The minute you are afraid to engage with someone at work because you feel that they will respond in a reactive way, you have a problem. Although working in a comfortable environment where you aren't belittled seems like something very basic, not everyone has that pleasure. Some people's coworkers, especially ones that are working at a company for a long time, feel like they get a free pass to be an AH. Lord knows why… We tend to make fun of HR a lot, for a number of reasons, but when they actua…

When an influencer from Ohio first moved to Los Angeles , she found that the influencers there could be quite entitled — especially after how they treated her at a party. Video creator Becca Moore shared her story of influencers acting crazy entitled at a party. She shared two stories . In the first, she spoke with an influencer who's already established, and in the second, she met a mutual who she had actually talked to before. Thumbnail image via Jake Blucker on Unsplash.

It never feels good to be accused of doing something nefarious or being something that you're not, but in these situations, the best thing you can do is remain level-headed and rational — if you get upset that someone is accusing you of being aggressive and you become aggressive as a result you're kind of proving their point. Regardless, this guy was in the wrong long before he lost his cool. As we've consistently said over the years: You're an a**hole as soon as you pass an unwanted judgment o…

The audacity of some people has never failed to surprise me. Granted, my neighbors can wreak absolute chaos for no apparent reason (maybe they're bored?) but I'm speaking more generally. Whether you bump into a Karen at the supermarket when all you wanted to do was buy a couple of tomatoes for the pasta you were planning on making later on, to receiving brutally honest (and frankly, unasked for) comments on the street from people who may not be aware that they aren't exactly doing you a favor.…

As some people would enjoy saying, 'Hate to say it but I told you so'. This applies very well here. Private property should be respected, though for some reason this logic apparently goes above the heads of some people. The science of reasoning seems quite scarce these days. People's judgment is clouded by their own stupidity. You can't argue some sense into everyone. Some of us are just itching for Karma to get that one particularly petty and belligerent person back but to no avail. You know t…

Well, this is awkward.

The fish in the sea are actually piranhas.

Woe to those who encounter a Wild Karen in their lifetime. If you've ever entered a Wallmart or a fast food restaurant such as Mcdonald's, you'll find that it's basically unavoidable. We often find ourselves wondering… what goes on in a Karen's mind when things don't go their way? How does their brain scan look? And where the heck did they get the courage (or rather, audacity) to approach others in such an entitled fashion? We may never have the answers to all these important questions, but we…

If people wanted you to speak well of them, maybe they should have behaved better.

Think about how much money you could make from selling "I Don't Work Here Lady" shirts!

Tough luck.
