Entitled Karen Goes Into Full Rage Mode at Movie Theater, Guy Dumps His Water Bottle on Her

There's nothing like an all-out brawl with a Karen at the movie theater to make the moviegoing experience all the more memorable. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit by u/NoStateGreenery, who shared an anecdote about an upper-class Karen, her balding boyfriend, and an impulsive choice to dump a water bottle on them to defend his mother. 

 

The Redditor's mother was trying to avoid the large crowd exiting the theater at the end of the film because she has a bad knee. When she came across Karen and her beau, they wouldn't let her pass because they wanted to watch the credits. They harassed the original poster's mom to the point that she was crying, and that's when her son stepped in to defend her. Did he have to dump the contents of his water bottle on them? No. Is it a satisfying reading experience to hear about that choice and the subsequent fight that followed? Yes! Yes! A thousand times, Yes!

'My dumb idiot brother was getting blackmailed': Brothers beat blackmailing catfish at their own game

We're all pretending to be someone we're not. Whether it's putting on our "business persona" during office hours to conform to corporate life or trying to fit in with a new friend group—we all do some level of managing how we want to be perceived by others. 

Catfishes take this to another level, building an entirely new identity online to experience the thrill of being someone they're not or escape from their own reality—sometimes getting so deeply lost in it that there's no turning back. Usually, a catfish's intentions aren't nefarious (at least initially), but sometimes the catfish creates the persona from the get-go with the scam in mind.

In this story of petty revenge, shared to Reddit's classic subreddit community of the same name, Redditor u/dickwithshortlegs97 shared their story of how he intervened to save his brother from a catfish who was blackmailing his brother will illicit photos he had sent them. 

 

'Just call me chef': 25 Funny and frightful food fails from people who are banned from the kitchen for life

Have you heard about the aspiring chef who made cheese out a mint milkshake? This ambitious cheese maker presumably bought a green St. Patty's day shake and committed to the entire cheese making process. Would you try it, though? Perhaps the cheese would pair well with the toast that was actually a kitchen sponge. For those with a refined palette, we recommend the nightmare fuel of the "bologna cake," topped with mayo and mustard. There are all kinds of concoctions and meals gone wrong, and luckily for us, their creators decided to share their fails with the internet. 

Check out this wild array of food fails. Then, these actors and movie crew members spilled what it's actually like behind the scenes of a movie that everyone already knows isn't going to be very good. 

'My grandma says I can': Waterpark Karen and entitled teen throw temper tantrum at lifeguard

It is surprisingly unsurprising that water parks attract the Karens of this world. Here is a tale of generational Karens, in which an entitled teenager taunted a lifeguard after numerous warnings. Matters were, of course, made worse when the teenager's grandmother got involved, proving just where this young girl inherited this unacceptable behavior.

 

The grandmother threw a tantrum of her own that you'll just have to read to believe. Thankfully, the lifeguard's superior sided with him rather than with Karen and Karen-in-the-making. At the end of the day, the two were actually kicked out of the whole park. It's continually shocking that Karens believe they can exhibit this behavior to employees, but even more shocking that they think they can get away with actions that are not only verbal but physical too. What world are we living in these days?

'I am not demanding': Demanding manager demands worker cover shift on their day off, demands their cooperation after they quit

If you have to claim that you are or aren't something, it's incredibly likely that you aren't or are that thing. It's like having that one friend who tells you that they hate drama, yet whenever drama happens, they're right there in the thick of it. So, when your boss tells you that they aren't demanding while they're in the middle of being demanding, it's likely their ego is just deflecting.

This discussion came to the forefront when an employee received a text from their boss asking them to come in to cover a shift for their coworker. When they responded that they could not come in because they were studying for an exam, the boss said they were "expected to be available for tonight's shift." Things escalated to the boss saying they were "disappointed," and the employee decided it was time to walk away from the job. We're starting to see so many posts like this it makes you wonder… just how prevalent is this in shift work?

This post was posted to the r/antiwork subreddit by Redditor u/Hoodtho after the incident. They shared screenshots of the exchange between them and their boss titled "Happened on Tuesday but [middle finger emoji] this idiot." The thread has hit the top of the subreddit with 21k upvotes.

'I unloaded all the rubbish right back on to his driveway' : Contractor takes petty revenge on entitled customer in breach of price agreement

As someone offering your services to a customer, you give a price, and the customer tries to bargain said price… that's just how it goes. It's a frustrating, but necessary, part of the job. However, when a customer attempts bargaining AFTER you've completed the work… well, that's a whole different story. After settling on a price, you shouldn't have to deal with someone who refuses to pay that cost. That is what happened to a contractor who collected rubbish for a customer who decided after the fact that it was 'too expensive.'

After a few choice words, the contractor decided to drive off, upset that he had wasted half a day. He wasn't exactly drowning in money. As he was heading off, he was hit — with a brilliant idea. He made a quick u-turn and dumped all the rubbish right back onto the shocked customer's driveway (who, mind you, was freaking out by this time). Scroll down to see what happened next.

Moral of the story: don't mess with your contractor. For more stories like this, here is a woman who thought she could get away with not pitching in for her sick boss's gift, yet expected credit.

'Boss told me I'm stealing': Worker accused of wage theft for clocking in for meetings on their days off

Expecting your workers to attend hour-long meetings on their day off without receiving any compensation, let alone acknowledgment, is effectively a theft of wages. So to turn around and accuse those same workers of theft for claiming that time is quite outrageous.  

 

 

'If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it': Manager creates mandatory lunch break schedule, employee finds loophole to get paid overtime

This guy managed to find a way to get paid during an unpaid lunch break. Here's what happened. His new manager, Dave, decided to step in and enforce a ridiculous new policy in which he assigned everyone lunch times. Unfortunately, the Redditor learned that their assigned time would be during their most productive time of day when they usually schedule meetings and calls.

 

So rather than reschedule all those meetings and calls, the employee decided to keep them because there's a policy in their contract that any work during an unpaid lunch break must be paid in overtime. After submitting a detailed report to Dave by the end of the week to ensure that they were compensated for that "extra" work, Dave realized just how nonsensical the lunch break policy really was. At the end of the day, Dave reversed the policy, much to literally no one's chagrin. Keep scrolling below for the full story!
