Hi, I'm Charlotte Dobre. I'm an actor, reactor, singer and sometimes (not really) comedian. On this channel I do reactions, commentary and occasionally I make a joke or two. I upload daily, usually 7 days a week, unless life gets crazy or I get lazy. Come hang out, it's a good time.

The fist one, the "investigative journalist" isn't really a journalist (she's a RUclipsr) and she wasn't there to investigate anything. She was purposefully being intrusive confrontational to other beachgoers in order to film the confrontations for her RUclips channel. When the police eventually showed up, they told her that even though it's a public beach, other people have the right to enjoy the beach without being harassed, and made her leave the area. That was a much more "Karen" situation, where she kept claiming that she was a journalist and that she was going to sue the police because they stopped her from harassing other people in public.
@@tetedur377 don't even reply to them, just report and move along. Replying gives them favorable analytics.
I thought it seemed off. I wouldn't want some stranger filming my children either!
if she was actually "harassing" them, i agree. if she was just filming the beach and people/kids happened to be there, then too bad. there's no expectation of privacy in public, it's been tried in the supreme court and backed up, you can film freely in public.
however, if you're being an a-hole about it, then i'm gonna knock your camera in the sand.
I guess I found the journalist police

jour·nal·ist
/ˈjərn(ə)ləst/
noun
a person who writes for newspapers, magazines, or news websites or prepares news to be broadcast.
If you notice, no mention of RUclips, Instagram, Twitch, Facebook, TikTok, or other media where any dumbass with zero professional journalistic training can post their _opinions_ and incorrectly call themself a journalist.
Even with *real* news providers, there's a distinction between journalists and opinion / editorial staff.
As a metal fan, I do not typically enjoy other people's music at the beach and wish they would all use ear buds. I also realize that me listening to my music without headphones would bother other people around me, so I don't. I mostly listen to my music in the car, at home, or with ear buds.
Agreed. I don’t understand why beaches it’s “acceptable” when in any other public place people would see it as a nuisance, especially since many people go to the beach to relax.
Thank you! Much appreciated by someone who goes to the beach, camping, etc for solitude.
Although I don't do this, and also hate it, some people do like to party at the beach and all be listening to the same music and hang out and dance and talk. I get it, and if someone came over, nicely, and asked if they could turn it down a little I think that they should. I do think though, some people are annoying, want to live their life how they want to, and they don't care what anyone else thinks, and to me, it's just easier to move away from them than start a fight, but maybe that's what makes me a non-Karen...
Yes, i go to the beach to hear the ocean, i don't want to hear other people's music, wireless ear phones were invented for a reason
I love the idea of taking over someone’s Bluetooth speaker and just blasting some hardcore death metal over it. I’d enjoy the music since it’s my own playlist, but I’m pretty sure they’d turn down their speaker real quick after that. 😂
Petty story: my neighbors were having a party next door. I don’t mind but their music was shaking my walls. I asked them nicely to turn it down so my kids could sleep. They turned it up louder. 🙄 so the next morning I let my kids go outside and scream and play and bang on things early in the morning 😂
had similar ... Sunday night party few houses down till 3 in the morning when I had a new job to start ....following Sat another party ... well Sunday at 6 I just had to clean my windows ... and vacuum... and blast music .... Ohh do you have a hangover hun ... sorry lol
Had neighbours that kept us awake for more than 2 weeks straight........to the point where one night I was standing on our side of the fence on the phone to the police while the neighbours played music so loud that you could only hear the beat.....you couldnt understand what it was and the ground was vibrating......my husband retaliated by using a shovel to scrape the concrete next to the garage the neighbours had all passed out in........he started about an hour after the music and shouting stopped......oddly enough they were not happy about the noise we were making.....
@@BreakofDawn leaf-blowing even
Tune up day. And check the idle. Requires a bit of revving the engine. And oh yes, Chris, didn’t you need to tune your guitars? Before work, at say, 8 or 9 am? I think I need to add to add nails to the fence, and maybe cut a few pieces of lumber.
We live for petty here
Charlotte, I was feeling kind of Kareney today because my neighbors had their car doors open and they were blasting their music so loud that I couldn't even hear my own phone call in my house. I stood on my porch, like a K, and glared. I thought about what I wanted to do instead of just calling the police. I thought about you, and had a "what would Charlotte do" moment. So I walked over there and asked them nicely to turn it down, and they did. Crazy. Simple.💞
I know, its kinda crazy that can happen. I went to a Statbucks (not my usual one) and ordered what I always order. A cream cold brew. I got a coffee with a few bubbles on top, no cream. Boy was I mad. Bur I walked in, set the undrunk coffee on the counter and kindly said “can I please have a refund?” They asked to remake it, I said “no thank you, just the refund” there was NO issues. I got refunded right away. Weird.
But we don't know the whole situation in these videos, what if the people did try to reason with them originally and could have been very nice at first but then the person recording purposely riled them up to start recording..
The woman walking into the fishing pole was incredible. There was literally no one else on the beach and she just had to be a Karen
Honestly I think this lady had some kind of dementia, or at least early stages.
I would immediately put my mother in a nursing home.
I don't understand why people are so "in-your-face" and why they can't mind their own business! I was at the beach in the Caribbean back when I was 28 with my husband (30) and his family when a wild Karen walked up to me and my husband. She felt compelled to tell my husband how disgusting he was for "kissing a teenager". I looked young but I didn't think I could pass as a teenager. She was even trying to pull me away to "protect me from the pedophile." The police got called and I ended up showing the police my license which clearly showed that I was 28. She huffed and, of course, declared that my license had to be fake. That was 10 years ago and we still joke that he robbed the non-existent cradle.
omg wow, lol
I laughed out loud for real, thanks for sharing.
I would have thanked her for the compliment! I've always looked older than I am, and it sucks. It was okay when I didn't get carded at age 16 so my friends sent me to buy beer (never once carded!). I didn't mind when I got Senior discounts without asking at age 52 (who doesn't want a discount?). Now I'm 61, and people assume I'm past retirement age it sucks again.
Damn.. what a sticky awkward situation, lol.. I almost want to thank the lady for trying to ‘save’ someone from a potential kidnapper, but on the flip side, mind your manners, ma’am! The audacity of some very few people.. she owes you an apology! I’m sorry that happened to you ❤️🩹
I'm exactly one month younger than my husband. He tells people that he robbed the cradle. Fortunately, I don't look all that young.
have to admit, if i was on a beach with my nieces, and there was someone dressed as a mermaid, that would make their day, (mine too). not to yell at them. it's magical
I think the problem was the mermaids kids being very unruly, not just playing tag.
@@debshaw680 the deuce you say! kids being unruly on a beach! and, and... look at all those people! it's practically overflowing with crowds! it must have been awful for all those people with those unruly kids...
100% sarcasm btw.
That would be the best! 🧜🏼♀️
@@estibon3872 I have no problem with kids playing and being rowdy as long as they’re not bugging people while their parents ignore them then minimize it when other people get annoyed.
I would be like “Ma’am please don’t disturb the natural wild life” 🧜♀️🧜♂️
The thing with fireworks for me, is that they literally scare animals to death. One of my friends has to give her dog sedatives on new years even and sit at home with the dog the entire night because of the fireworks. And it's not even that, that is the biggest problem, it's when people shoot fireworks for WEEKS before and after. There are also a lot of people with anxiety and PTSD that can react really bad to the sounds.... I personally love the looks of fireworks, but i don't put me liking the pretty colours over the health of others.
Exactly. July 4th is a nightmare with my poor girl. I think I got a total of five hours of sleep at night in six days. July 1st to July 6th because of fireworks. She was so bad I just stayed awake and held her and had the TV on just so some noise would be blocked. I napped during the day when she napped but the nighttime was terrifying for her.
Michigan changed the law after making fireworks legal. Day before, of,after. Agree.
Agree. We started giving our dogs sedatives as well, and as a small child seeing how scared my dogs were and that we had to drug them, it confused me so much why people did it in the first place. Especially in a desert where most of the time someone would unintentionally start a fire. I even knew people who set some of these fireworks off, and they always said they knew what they were doing so it was fine...and the people who unintentionally start fires probably felt the same way. People are amazing.
Totally agree. Poor strays, wildlife and farm animals too
We also only get the tail end of the argument. We don't know if she first approached nicely and was shot down, then the situation escalated.
People think that just because you’re in a public space you are free to almost do anything, but in reality that’s when and where you have to be the most considerate to others.
No it isn't.
@@stripedtigress Yes you do or you'll soon find out people don't agree with your behaviour.
@flitsertheo But it is your right to film in Public because the time you step out your door you are losing the right of privacy my friend!!!!
Live in Hawaii. Easter morning, at sunrise, there was a local church holding sunrise services (yes they had a permit, they do it every year). We were chilling, listening to the music, enjoying the moment (we were not part of the service btw), when a Karen started shouting at the group to stop because she didn’t want to hear religious stuff. Pretty much everyone else on the beach just started singing along. Karen left, huffing and puffing.
I’m an atheist, and the woman who did that is a douchebag. People can believe what they want and celebrate what they want. They’re not forcing it on you by holding a service! I’m sorry that happened.
I wouldn't want to listen to religious stuff either, but I'd probably just leave
@@katieedwards5926I’m not religious, but I do enjoy some religious music. Some is actually very beautiful. As long as people aren’t forcing me to participate and trying to “convert” me and we are respectful to each other, I’m fine with it.
@@thomasbradley4505the only decent things to come from religion are the art and the music.
@@cherylbutler6635 agreed. Some religious art is gorgeous. And for me it’s easy to separate the art from the actual religion and enjoy the beauty of it.
In all honesty, I can understand the first woman, who didn't want the youtuber/ "investigative journalist" to film her and her kids on the beach!
Taking footage of children in bathing suits and uploading it to the internet is definetely something a professional journalist should not do. And what does she even want to investigate on a beach?
I agree 💯💯💯
Exactly! 💯
We did only see a little bit. Karen’s often assume people are targeting them specifically, so we don’t know what she was actually recording. Could just be a beach vlog
Agreed. Yes you can film children in public but maybe ask first? Also it depends if they were the main focus or just happened to be in frame.
I definitely think there is way too little information in that clip to really make a judgement call on that one
As a smoker myself, I can kinda understand the Karen’s who get mad at people smoking/vaping. You just gotta be mindful of who is around you and kind of where the smoke is going. Yeah it’s not always possible at like, the beach, but for non smokers who then have second hand smoke all up in their face it can get annoying.
Also you don't have to smoke in the masses of people. Like go away, smoke, come back
@@tiny._.sxnshine yes! Especially with non-smokers. Walk away, have a smoke and rejoin the group
agreed, especially with second hand smoke potentially being more toxic. Those that smoke are making a choice to breath in all of it, but those around them did not necessarily want to be in a plume of smoke in the process.
I'd much rather smell vape than cigarette smoke. Js.
For goodness sake’s it’s the great outdoors inside ok but the great outdoors
About the smoking thing, I understand it as when I walk somewhere or go into a store, I don't want to walk through a cloud of your smoke which triggers my asthma, just because you didn't want to smoke by your car or further down the sidewalk. I also get that vaping is different but laws are slow to catch up and it's still thoughtful to stand away from where people congregate.
There is no difference at all between vaping and making tea. If anyone who protest vaping ever makes a tea or boil water, that person is a total hypcrite.
I have my own personal "Entitled people at the beach" and it's a Swedish story that happened just this summer. Someone found out that a bunch of rich people claimed part of public property as their own just so they could get a private beach. Once the public found out they occupied said beach (and bridges the rich had built illegally) and the people won as the city council began to FINALLY investigate in this. 5 out of 7 bridges, including one who had a heli pad, had to be torn down at the owners expense.
I love this…
yessssss!
All reasons why I do not like people-gatherings.
I finally have a story! I went to the beach with my family. It was close to dinner time so the crowds were pretty much gone. As we headed toward the water, a woman and her kids were leaving, and she was screaming the most blatantly racist stuff as she was huffing away. Apparently she was very angry that a woman was staring her down the entire time she was there.
The woman doing the “staring”….. was completely asleep, with sunglasses on. Just absolutely out. Lol. It was nuts.
I live in Hawaii and we went to Ala Moana beach and these 2 local Karen’s told us that this was a local beach and we needed to leave. I said ma’am, I live here, I work at the big old hospital here for 3 years and I pay my taxes, this is my beach. They continued to harass us and told us we were lucky their husbands weren’t there. We were 3 females, one male and one small child. Lovely!
What they said: It’s just for locals.
What they meant: You’re too white.
What made them think you didn't belong there, I wonder? So sorry you went through that.
This was back in 1999-2000. I was dating another soldier that I had met in training school right after basic. we had been dating for a year when she got transferred to Hawaii. So when I got a chance, I got temp assignment there as well. So we'd been dating for almost 2 years when I got there. (She is Pilipino by the way. 2nd Gen American, Grew up in CA)
Whenever we were out at a local beach or local restaurant, I'd get shit from the locals about dating a 'local' girl. I had at least 3 fight when they'd attack me over it. When the police would arrive and we BOTH would explain what was going on, and the police would chew out the locals THEN LET THEM GO!!!... They NEVER would be charged with Assault and Battery.
Natives on Hawaii REALLY HATE that 'howlies' would like and try and date the local girls, because it was 'taking away those girls from the local guys'.... what kind of shit is that? IF she wanted to date YOU, then she WOULD have been dating YOU....
Are you white? Cuz Hawaiians are understandably not thrilled at the amount of white folk moving there, and the tourists cause a big issue with their resource infrastructure. Not saying they're right to get in your face, but I get why they look at outsiders like invaders. There's a news story from a while back where a CO hippy cult called Love Wins decided to move to Hawaii and told the locals that their leader was the reincarnation of Pele. It did not end well for them lol.
kailua beach is my fav!
If you see MERMAIDS ON THE BEACH..... enjoy that moment of awe and fantasy!!!!!! Dang, folks out here acting like they didn't ever play Little Mermaid in a pool and shit. 😆🤣 Much love and light yall. ❤
I'd go up to them and ask where they got their tails so I could get one tbh! I've always dreamed of doing a mermaid shoot on the beach, 100% would compliment them--but only when theyre not actually snapping pics
@@rainestar82 Oh Sweetie, see the difference is you apparently have respect and a childlike wonder of the world. Protect that at all cost. 🙏 😘
Beach rules: Don't swim where people are fishing and don't fish where people are swimming. If you don't want to be around a lot of people drive farther down the beach. I personally don't like loud music while camping, at the beach, etc., but that's why I drive FAR down the beach. It's not that hard to be considerate of others.
I have to agree. I have hyperacusis, due to my ME/CFS, which basically means I have sound sensitivity. Many sounds seem much louder to me than they really are and truly loud sounds are sometimes almost painful. If I'm at the beach and someone's music is too loud for me doesn't mean the music is actually loud. I'll just move to avoid any issues.
Actually this isn't easy in many countries. Mine has only 2 small cost lines and one of them is so heavily influenced by ebbs and floods that you can't really go there. So the beaches are always overfilled. There is no "drive further then" and no "swim somewhere else then". Just do not fish at the beach. Rent a boat or go to a doc but if you fish at the beach you're the a-hole because there is already no space
Where I live we have a decent amount of shark sightings near the shore, so releasing wounded fish near swimmers isn’t the best idea
thats it right there. If someone wants to listen super loud and not everyone wants to listen, everyone has earbuds these days XD
@@JaseekaRawr From my experience, I see fishers at the pier and around it but not just on the public beach where swimmers are. There can be a lot of issues at least from where I've been. People aren't expecting it and can't see the lures all the time if they're swimming, making it more likely the waves can carry the line and someone can get caught in the hook which is really not good. Even if it didn't, releasing the fish in itself isn't bad but around swimmers a bleeding fish can attract sharks. Where I've been, I've seen hammerheads and makos and bulls and tons of species (even some non aggressive ones) which can be a big deal for anyone. Like I'd really like to not get a shark bite because someone was inconsiderate? At PCB in FL where I've been, there's a fishing pier. People do swim around there, but it's very much at your own risk for obvious reasons and imo you can't tell someone not to fish when that's what the area is for. But in a place where no one else is fishing, it can become a serious hazard. IMO be considerate of others? If I was fishing in an area no one expected me to and it attracted a shark that bit someone, that would be awful. I wouldn't want to do that to someone nor would I want it done to me or my loved ones. Im sure different areas have different accessibility for those things, but I'd just hope people take a look at their surroundings and make a proper judgement call.
In defense of Karen #1 I also wouldn’t want someone I didn’t know filming my children while they’re playing in their suits at the beach
Why I love these videos is because I'm Swedish, and 90% of these would never ever happen here. People are so angry and self righteous in the US, it is very amusing ☺️
There are definitely many angry and self-righteous people in Sweden. Don't pretend it's not true. Europe probably has the most self-righteous people in the entire world.
It's spreading all over the world.
Anger and self-righteousness is not limited to the US. The amount of audacity I've seen out of Europe is astounding. 😂
And not at all pretentious...go eat some meatballs
Maybe I'm an old man (and always have been) but I hate loud music at the beach (most places). I get that you want to jam and show off how cool your tastes are but my mother always said, "people didn't come out into nature to listen to you shouting." I literally have to listen to other people's music foisted on me at just about every single public place I have to go to during my day. People never want to just hear their own thoughts and the sound of the world around them.
I have misophonia. I'd go slightly crazy if I had no way to block out loud music.
I hate loud music everywhere. Enjoying a nice hike, birds chirping, wind blowing through trees and people come by blasting music. Drives me nuts. Put your headphones/earbuds in!
I feel you. There is a time and place for loud music, in nature, im not a fan. I want to hear waves breaking and grass rustling in the wind.
And also, inappropriate music around children too. I really don't like seeing people listen to WAP while their kids are dancing to the garbage.
Do I say anything to them? No... because I'm not a Karen but I certainly internally, SILENTLY, judge them. LOL
I’m young and I hate it
For these reasons I just go bright and early before all of that starts and just enjoy the silence and nature of the waves, watching the dolphins jump up, and hearing and watching the birds. Best time to go on walks as well. Early morning and around 9pm is when I go for just relaxation. I try to distance myself away from drunks and incredibly loud music. A bit of music is fine, but I just don’t want it to be blasted in my ear so I just find a spot further away, and my 2 kids and I still get to enjoy the beach. ❤
In my state you legally need to be a certain distance from doorways to smoke (public buildings of course). Most people ignore the law and as a non-smoker, it is super annoying to have to fight through a cloud of smoke to enter or exit a building. I imagine it's much worse for people with asthma or other respiratory issues. So, no I don't find someone requesting that you move away from the door unreasonable. You aren't bothering anyone but your smoke (or vapor) might be.
Smoke is a big trigger for me and my asthma. I get if people wanna smoke its free will but please think about those who have breathing issues. You know I would like to not die from your smoke today. x
It's the same here in Canada. However no one listens
Vape users seem to think that they’re not restricted by smoking etiquette and as someone who has difficulty breathing around fumes/smoke, it drives me nuts
Both vaping and smoke give me horrible headaches and affects my asthma to make it difficult to breathe. That being said, as long as people are far away enough, I don’t see an issue.
I was the recommended distance away. Furthermore, there was no one around. Someone walked past me and told me to move. Y’all also are breezing over the fact that it was a CBD vape which is for anxiety.
if someone starts vaping near me i do ask them nicely to either move away from me or stop only because the vape smells give me terrible migraines. i have seen people who vape stand in silly places almost like they are waiting for someone to say something and have a fight about it so i just walk away.
Same, I always ask if I need to but also understand if I'm outside they might vape so I gotta move sometimes.
I feel like this may be me lol I only vape right before bed, and I can't smoke where I live so I have to randomly stand outside awkwardly smoking and I always feel out of place and I try not to stand there for too long. I definitely agree that some people are probably looking for a fight, but I think most people are just trying to get their fix and get back to their routine as possible and it's awkward for everyone.
Same here. Fumes of any kind get the migraines going, and most vapes to have odors to them now. The original e-cigarettes didn’t bother me at all. As smoking is legal, tho, I just remove myself from the situation. Although it sucks to be made sick because of someone else’s bad habits.
I always ask people around me if they mind me vaping before I vape... if they say no I respect their wishes to not be around it and either move away or put my ecig away...
Same here. Asthma and migraines. There's also studies showing second and third-hand "vape" is actually very harmful, since it contains "an aerosol of exhaled nicotine, ultra-fine particles, volatile organic compounds, and other toxins." But I'm also very nice about it. If I have to be there I ask, if I don't, I move! I consider it a me problem, not a them problem.
As a life-long Floridian, I recognize more than a few of those beaches and can confirm it's just year round Karen season. Honestly convinced that's where they go to spawn.
I agree that people should turn their music down if it's very loud. If somebody asks, just be considerate and do it. You're not entitled to blast your music, but people are entitled to enjoy the space. You don't need loud music to enjoy the beach.
Agree. I love the beach, the whole package, hearing the waves etc is part of it and it is so relaxing mentally. Where I live there are almost no places left without hotel bars etc blasting music on their beach areas. It is honestly horrible regardless of the type of music. Those rare times I’ve been in beaches with no music It would have bothered me too and ruin my day if a group of people started playing music. Yea it is a public place but its not a bar/pub… not everyone might want to hear music and other loud sh1t for once.
@@eraldadevole Most people just want some peace and quiet at the beach, so those few who decide to play their music ruin it for everyone else, especially since everyone has different tastes in music.
@@macwinter7101 Exactly, i’m fine with voices, kids playing yelling people talking that doesn’t bother me but constant loud music for hours it does. I love hearing waves.
My mother in law had this thing that she would put ambient music(to her taste all the time especially when we would go there for dinner in the weekends, we would stay there hours, aperitif, dinner and then after dinner. It was honestly very tiring after a few hours because of being constant and not really ambient music just a bunch mixed of sogns she liked. My hb would jokingly try to tell her here and there but she was fixated its like she hated even a 2 seconds quietness. Mind you we both love music its just that we don’t want it all the freakin time. At the beach when many want to also relax its only worse.
My local beach had to ban vaping last year cause of all the spent vapes that was found after the fireworks on NYE. they also can effect asthmatics depending on the juice in the vape itself. My town banned vaping in the same places cigarettes are also banned.
As an asthmatic with Lupus I love what your town did🙂
It's banned in my town as well, but that just means that kids go into bathrooms and vape up in there. You can always smell that very distinct vape smell.
@@GummyDinosaursify literally my favorite place to go
The music one hits hard for me- my dad literally blasts music at the pool (shared by many apartment tenants), and just lays there and tans and it is honestly a nuisance because not everyone has the same taste in music- I came to the water to relax- not to listen to crappy music- put your headphones in or expect me to absolutely crank up whatever music is completely opposite of yours right next to you heehee 🙂
My dad's the same way
this. I dont get the "its a public space" debate. Ok if its a public space, dont force others to listen to your music, have a party at a non public space if you wanna do that. Same thing with shared housing. The fact that the music is off while that argument happens makes me think both groups are being karens for the camera.
Exactly. People need to realize that everyone has a different taste in music. Music that sounds nice to one person may sound really obnoxious to another. If someone wants to listen to music, that's fine, but they should just use headphones when in a public space.
The kids across the street started the fireworks in June. My poor Sprocket was shaking & afraid to go outside. I ran out of my house & genuinely asked (while running) to PLEASE STOP because my dog was freaking out.
They said OK. Everyone was happy, I brought Sprocket across the street to meet them…and then the neighborhood Karen came out. After everyone was fine. She was yelling & one of the kids started filming her. I backed tf outta that frame. WHY?? WHYYYY?
oh damn! the kids are always understanding, i bet they loved they could pet your dog
@@abigailmaturana741 Everyone was acting exactly the way they should. I asked them to stop, they did. That’s why the Karen episode was so unnecessary! It’s the only Karen I’ve seen in the wild, and I knew her. 🤦🏻♀️
I have a client with a cat named sprocket, may I ask where you got the name? Is it like a character or something? I was just curious. I had never heard that name until I met them and now I hear it everywhere 😊
@@brittbratt101123 Both husband & I work(ed) in heavy duty manufacturing for different companies. He worked for “Spacely Sprockets” & I worked for Cogswell’s Cogs. LOTS of Sprockets!
Most people will probably refer to Fraggle Rock, the dog’s name is Sprocket. I didn’t see it until after someone told me about it.
@@DarkbutNotsinister that makes sense 😂 thank you for your reply!
When that woman said, "Get away from my kids," an angel got its wings.
I had a neighbor Karen get pissy because I was outside, in the back parking lot, in my car, smoking. She could apparently smell it from her apartment, kitty corner from my car. Literally couldn't be any further away.
I later pissed her off because she was taking 4hours to do an 1.5hours worth of laundry, and I shifted it for her. It was on low. She was breaking all but 1 rule our apartment has about laundry. Went off on me, calling me a meth head (I was 200lbs and 6months pregnant), I've NEVER done drugs. Weed doesn't count and it had been like 3 years since my last smoke. She moved out a week later, still breaking apartment rules by blocking the entire back lot with her crap.The apartment requires movers to be parked out front.
Just my most recent experience. It was fun getting her all worked up over laundry. She slammed the door on her way out of the room. Lol
One time at the dog beach a Karen decided she should sit in the middle of the dog beach section. Usually not a problem but she would scream anytime a dog walked past her or up to her shaking their tail. She then turned to us and said “I’m horrified of dogs”. The dog beach was only a mile strip of beach on a 7 mile long beach…
Horrified? Is that supposed to mean she’s afraid of dogs? If so then why did she sit in the middle of the dog beach?
God that’s my idea of heaven, cuddling all the dogs lol
The old man isn't the Karen in that situation with the loud music. They started harassing him because they didn't want to turn their music down.
Idk man it’s a public beach, people can play music if they want to. It’s an outdoor space…I really don’t see the big deal
@@amandareed4689 they had no.reguard for the other people at the beach. The guy didn't even tell them to turn it off, he just wanted it turned down. Not everybody likes the same music.
@@amandareed4689 Common decency. Nobody wants to listen to your music the same way you don't want to listen to other people's music. The old guy only asked to turn the volume down, not turn it off. I think that's a fair request. Set the volume to the same level of noise as a conversation.
@@amandareed4689 Sorry you never learned basic manners.
As a regular cigarette smoker, who might i add never litters, I think that vapes and e-cigarettes STINK. When I’m on a beach, I don’t want to smell ur freakin grapefruit flavoured “totally safe” vape just like u don’t want to smell my tabaco. I honestly think that the rules about regular cigarettes should be applied to vapes. No smoking means no smoking, even e-cigarettes. That’s it.
If you go on a beach and get hurt by other people asking u to put ur cigarette away, you might need a reality check… Put it away and enjoy the sun just like us peasants who can’t smoke here
I couldn't agree more!
I’m old enough to remember when everyone smoked everywhere. At the beach, mall, grocery store, airplanes, hospitals.
I’m just glad it’s not like that now.

This is my da’s wife every time we go to a beach! He lives in Florida. About 10 yrs ago, I said I would not go the beach if she was coming. My Da takes me, by boat, every time he gets the chance and we leave her at home. If she does manage to get in the boat, I set up very far away from her. I just got back from there, helping my Da replace drywall and insulation. I had a tank top on with yoga shorts, she offered me a bloody robe! My da told her to shove off. Then we laughed hysterically. Yes, I’ll take a robe in this very warn, humid temp while cutting out drywall, removing insulation, installing new insulation and drywall! Great plan 😂😂😂. Insecure hag.
“The world is your oyster!” Yeah, that means it’s really irritating before you get your pearl.
So glad I'm an introvert lol, being on a beach surrounded by karens sounds like my idea of hell 🥴😂
Agreed
Same
Yeah, people are so inconsiderate. I went to one and was actually having a nice relaxing time despite it being pretty crowded. Took me an hour to realize that it was a no noise beach where any music playing wasn't allowed. Oh so it was the waves that were making that delightful sound. Had never heard them before over people blasting their music.
You are correct, entitled people do flock to the beach. The rest of us are at work.
Facts 🙏
I mean.. i'm sorry that you work 365 days a year and don't have a single day to enjoy the beach? 😂 (i'm joking of course)
@@golden_leader9227 yeah because I wanna spend a day off waking up early to drive 2 hours, to get a decent spot at the beach 😒🤣
@@shabangbangg_ Luckily i can't relate, but i totally understand!
Some of these people “filming the Karens” are just as big of Karens if not bigger. I think I’m starting to realize that a Karen can only truly become a Karen if she encounters another Karen to Karen off with 😆
I totally agree
Yeah, in some instances, the people filming keep antagonizing the other person. Once Karen walks away, that should be the end of it. I wouldn't have the nerve to film someone during a confrontation, and I surely wouldn't want to keep pressing them because you never know how unhinged the person might become.
Well put and sometimes the one filming is actually the one that’s wrong and they’re filming the situation escalating.
Such a good point 😄
If a Karen, karen's alone in the forest, is she still a Karen...? hehe
I actually respect the one with the investigative journalist - anyone can be/claim to be a journalist and she just didn't want her kids videotaped in beach attire by randos. Good for her for trying to protect her kids
OMG THE SAND WRITING ONE. In middle school I had a Wiccan phase, and one day I used those little wild berries from our bush to write "draw close to the spirit of the land" on the ground (a quote from one of my tree books or some sh*t), but at some point my super religious condo neighbor noticed it and actually went out of her way to bend down and rearrange some of those tiny little berries in the dirt to change "land" to "lord", and then pointed it out to me later and basically "how cool is that" that the little change could make it about God lmfaooooo. I literally thought it was from animals or weather and just a coincidence that it now looked like "lord", until she told me she did it. She was psycho in many other ways but this is the funniest (the rest were mostly anger-inducing).
I'm from Hawaii and this video is way too relatable. The amount of Karen tourist on the beaches is insane....like absolutely insane
I hope your heart and mind are healthy, and that your energy is not drained, because trying to stop them seems/is exhausting.
Isn’t Hawaii like California and the entire waterfront is public property?
@@csueconner9711 depends on the beach and island. Unfortunately, there are some really crazy and disrespect tourist that treat the island and the locals like shit. Obviously, not all tourist do this. I usually try to avoid the super touristy beaches but that's become harder over the years.
@@user-guigui01 I don't engage with the Karens.
@@H3arme3r0ar ugh I’m sorry that people have ruined it, I don’t understand how people have to audacity to go to someone’s home and then abuse THEM and act like THEY know better??
I'm with you on the music thing because some people do very inconsiderately blast their music way too loud without caring about anyone else around them.
And at campgrounds as well. I don't get why people drag all of their noise makers to quiet places. Just stay home. Maybe spend some money on therapy to see why you're uncomfortable with quiet and feel like its ok to disturb others. (Can you tell this is a pet peeve of mine...)
@@Birdbike719 haha to your therapy comment. I think we would get along! Lol
@@seppyq3672 probably. LOL
I’m thinking of the scene on the bus in the Star Trek movie The Voyage Home! 🤣
Our neighbors in an apartment building with an echoing court yard had been playing extremely loud music all week disturbing everyone. So one quiet Sunday morning while the party animals where sleeping with their hangovers someone played loud annoying bagpipe music waking them up. They never played the loud music again. 😄
1:33 agreed. My right to enjoy my space as I see fit stops where it infringes on someone else's right to enjoy their space. That's why I never let my kids screech in restaurants, since my loud kid might be enjoying themselves, but they're taking away from others' enjoyment. Just think of others people.
We actually have a law in my country that protects us from people intentionally filming others and then posting to social media... And honestly that first 'investigator' seemed to be just as much a Karen 🤣
As an introvert I hate the fact that I have to be the one to always move. It's not that purposefully going in the midst of a crowd and asking them to clear out. Even if I go to an remote and quite area without many people around and am just chilling quietly, there'll be that one family that comes up with their kids there and they're all shouting and playing music and basically my quiet environment is destroyed. So I again get up and hope not another comes in their place. Because of the "public place" argument, the majority of them decides if the particular situation is normal or not.
P.S.: Lol, I liked the pray to god response to 2020 bi***es quote. Lmao, it's the appropriate response, according to them as long as they didn't mess up their sand graffiti. Not at all Karen level petty imo, lmao.
I get smoking/vaping if its close enough to effect people around you. I'm extremely sensitive to smoke from cigarettes and vaping (it's thought that I might be allergic to one of the ingredients) and I will start coughing, runny nose, watery eyes, and throat closing. I do everything I can to not put myself in situations were I encounter it but I have run into cases were its unavoidable or people are breaking the rules.
I love the fisherman on a beach with no one else around and the lady still walking into his space!!
He sounded like he had a Spanish accent she was probably racist. She even made a crack about being a tax payer (of Collier county-which is in Florida) which is their normal rhetoric. She also sounded southern herself. As a half black woman who looks Latina and lives in the south and have my entire 42 years I can almost guarantee it was prejudice. She felt she had more rights to be there than he did. I could be wrong but 42 years of anecdotal evidence tells me I’m probably not.
The first video... honestly could not tell who was supposed to be the Karen. I think it is definitely reasonable to ask someone not to film you and your children. You're not asking them to stop filming, you're asking them to stop filming YOU. Glad other people in the comments are talking about this.
I agree, filming someone for no reason is truly inconsiderate and rude. I do think the woman was asking to not film her kids. You never know if its a sex trafficker looking for kids to ID and locate later. Especially since the alleged "investigative reporter" offered no verifiable information about why or for who she was filming. I'd have called the police.
Agreed I can’t believe she’s getting called a Karen for not wanting someone filming her children in bathing suits
Perfectly legitimate to ask people not to film you. Sometimes you’re filming the surrounding area and someone just happens to be in the shot.
Agreed. It depends on whether she was filming (like a vlog or something) and the kids just happen to be in the background or if she was directly filming the kids. If it is the latter, I would be very wary of that potential pedophile. Filming kids on the beach who are in their swimsuits is creepy behaviour.
It is creepy to be circling the kids and filming them in that way and I would tell her to stop too. However, she really doesn’t have to. The US Supreme Court ruled, several years ago, that you have no expectation of privacy when you’re in a public space and there was no provision made regarding age. So, creepy or not, the law is actually on her side because no one needs your permission to take video of you in public and there’s nothing you can do about it. You can ask them nicely not to but, it’s up to them whether or not they comply. Your only recourse is to leave the area.
Charlotte, I know you’re being silly, but my husband has asthma and vapes still can trigger it. We were one time at a hiking trail, and a guy was vaping, and we just quietly went around him to avoid it. He got aggressive out of literally nowhere, and popped off that we were being over dramatic about his vape. We hadn’t said a word. Just moved around.
He followed us and was blowing the vapor/smoke toward us on purpose. :( I ended up confronting him just so my partner could get to the end of the trail and create a berth. Luckily a trail attendant showed up moments later, saw the dude screaming at me, and made him leave.
But it was awful. And I actually think there should be a designated area for vapes and smokers in public spaces. Sorry not sorry
Okay, but your story is completely different. The dude freaked out on you for acting correctly and avoiding his vape. You were absolutely in the right in that situation, but if you freaked out on him for doing it unintentionally, that would be different. Like the vegans that get upset when someone is grilling meat in the vicinity. What would you do if you were camping or walking around somewhere that allowed fires and people had a campfire? Tell them they can’t?
For people that have severe pet allergies, you can’t force people to remove the dogs that legally can be there, even if it makes you break out. Or make a restaurant not serve any food with nuts in while you are there and have an allergy.
I get that it is definitely not great and probably really hard for him when it happens, but that is the risk people take when going out in public. I’m personally very respectful about anything like that because I don’t want to make people upset, even my own music in my car while driving, but I certainly don’t have to be.
@@qz6332 funny thing, we don’t see any information of what led up to the Karen calling and are only told by the person filming. We do not know if that was a no smoking beach which usually vaping is included, or if possibly they were asked nicely to move and they insisted on getting closer. But even if that’s not the case and it’s as casual as the video showed Charlotte‘s response had a different scenario entirely. Charlotte stated that she was “not harming anybody by vaping outside the building.“ when individuals like this person‘s partner with asthma or individuals like myself with environmental allergies that respond with asthmatic symptoms are harmed by individuals who are vaping right outside of establishments or public locations. And if somebody walks up and asks if they could move a little bit further away from the door that’s not them being a Karen it’s literally them asking to give space for those who literally won’t be able to breathe when passing because “who is it harming“. people are allowed to do what they want in public to a degree. And no one can stop someone from smoking or vaping outside. But that doesn’t mean others around those who choose to smoke or Vape aren’t affected negatively.
@@AlLeDrgon when did I say we had the full context? I’m sorry that your bias is twisting my words, but ya I agree, if that was true, then there is a point. To your point though, if they are right next to a door, that is usually covered by law, as most laws require you to be a certain distance from buildings. My point of being in a large open space that allows smoking means you are taking that risk (otherwise it is illegal for them to smoke there and the cops can be called). My point stands, you take risks going into public and are responsible for avoiding uncomfortable or unhealthy situations.
@@qz6332 I was not trying to imply that you stated anywhere that we had the full context. Nor was I trying to twist your words though I do apologize if you feel I did. I was trying to point out nuances in the conversation about this especially since Your comment felt as though it could be interpreted unintentionally as shrugging off the complaint of the original Commentor Who could’ve been commenting on the videos situation on the beach or by Charlotte‘s comment of “who is it harming“, which the person could’ve been explaining it was harming people like their partner with asthmatic symptoms. Yes people in public can smoke and have pets in public locations where that is allowed. And yes there is a limit on how far away somebody can be from a doorway when smoking or vaping. The problem with that is that many people don’t follow those rules and people who Vape and say that “it’s not smoking therefore it’s fine“ not realizing that it can cause the same allergic reactions. I am sorry once again for any confusion. Your comment did bring up the reasonable point that we cannot control others actions in public locations when they are not against law, and on that point I agree. I was just trying to, probably poorly, point out that the comment itself could’ve been anything about the video with the Karen or with the words Charlotte said afterwards which can be harmful which I don’t believe was Charlotte‘s intention.
My husband and I (a month before we got married) were taking photos in the location we were getting married.... a "Karen" saw us taking photos and decided to walk right behind us and ended up photo bombing every photo we took.... all I did was crop her out of the photos before sharing them.... yes it frustrated me but I didn't make a scene since it was a public space
Whenever I encounter a Karen on public, I just go “what are you gunna do about it Karen, there’s no managers to speak to here!”
Did you quote Kall me Kris?
I see what you did there. Makes me wonder if Janet would be happy or upset that you are quoting her? I bet Kris would love it though.
LOL tell her to go find Nemo!
As a new mom, I would LOVE to have a shirt that says "Not Your Children, Not Your Problem"....there's certain people in my life that think I don't know what I'm doing with my daughter but she smiles at me everyday and that tells me I'm doing a good job 💓😍
As a mom I would disagree. If my child is doing something dangerous or illegal or even disrespectful I’d want someone to speak up. Not saying anything just told these kids that it’s OK. Unfortunately your kids are other peoples problem much of the time.
Yeah but if your kid is being a nuisance in a place where I am and you don’t stop the nuisance then it becomes my problem.
@@Supersquishyawesomeness says a lot about you as a parent that kids being bad your assumption for others bothering OP and not that she receives a lot of unsolicited “advice” about her new baby
If I am around my child, I can handle my child just fine. However, if I'm not around and my kid is doing something wrong, I would hope that someone would say something.
I think it would read better on a shirt than it would be on short..... but congrats on being a new momma♡
The one that ticks me off is the one insisting someone take their umbrella down. I have ME/CFS which has with it sensitivities to a lot of stuff like sound and light. I'm hypersensitive to sunlight and florescent lighting. I cannot step outside without sunglasses and I often wear them inside especially in stores, doctors offices, hospitals. I also burn extremely easily so I dont take chances. When I go to the beach I usually rent an umbrella or take my own. I have every right to enjoy the beach too. I make sure I don't block anyone's sun and I try to get out to the beach before it fills up so that I can claim a good spot. Usually as close to my car, golf cart, hotel, rental as possible since I'm also disabled and use either a cane or walker depending how good I feel that day. There are some people with ME/CFS though who cannot even stand to leave their room where they live in total darkness due to their light sensitivity. I plan to enjoy what I can, while I can just in case.
Oh now you can’t have umbrellas at the beach, now that’s entitled sick idiots. Don’t they know about skin cancer?
And you have every right to do that! 😊
"I make sure I don't block anyone's sun"... I think that was the problem if I understand it correctly. I think the person's umbrella was blocking his sun.
I have CFS too! I feel like mine is mild so I count my blessings on that. I wear sunglasses when outside because too much bright light will also trigger my migraines. I sometimes have to wear sunglasses inside because I get tension headaches and headache medicine doesn't help. I've gone to a beach with an 8 ft party canopy but we weren't close enough to people to block their sun.
@chadhiggins9944 I thought it looked like quite a distance between them, and he appeared to be in full sunlight in the video. Not to mention that was a pretty empty beach, he could have just moved.
I thought it looked more like he didn't like his view being blocked.
This reminds me of when I was 13 and I was having fun in a park with two of my friends. An old lady came stomping out of her house and yelled at us that we couldn’t play in a public park because we were too loud and she was sleeping. It was like 1pm… We were uncomfortable and left cause she was rude af.
We got to a nice beach early, ate breakfast at a picnic bench and then started building a sand castle in a huge empty spot. A huge family showed up and the teen boys started playing football directly over us while we were building the castle with our son. Instead of getting mad we packed up, drove 3 minutes up the road and hiked down to another beach that happened to be completely empty. We were much happier there.
People gonna people and although we think of others and have courtesy we also don't mess around with crazy or entitled people because they will ruin your day. It's not worth it. The other beach was way more fun anyway.
I majored in forestry at Oregon State. We had several field trips through several classes. One thing becomes abundantly clear when you visit dozens of parks in a couple years.
Places that are free bring the worse kinds of people. With no investment from the land user, their is no consideration for the resource they’re using. This attitude also extends to the way those kinds of people treat other people. “It’s a free place, they should be the only ones there!”
The moral of the story is “ don’t be an ass “ is true for both sides of the camera.
"People really hate filming in public, don't they?" Absolutely. Unless THEY'RE the ones filming.
From that brief clip, I'd be upset too, to have someone aggressively in my face claiming "investigative journalist" and macro-ing on my frontal attributes. Let alone my children. I've been places where people are filming, and it didn't bother me, but then, they weren't 18 inches from me and being aggressive either. They were filming some dancers or whatever. If I don't like it, I'll make sure I'm standing clear of it all or out of frame if I can discern that. Otherwise, don't care. Not my business unless they make it my business.
My own personal theory about all these entitled people videos is with everyone on social media in their own little bubbles that reinforces their opinions, when they go out in public they seem to think that their opinion is the only one that matters and express that if they see something they do not like and do not know how to react when people disagree with them and their world outlook. I know there is a lot more too it but that's my theory.
For the sand one, I have respect that people added a messages instead of erasing the original one. It made for a funny situation.
With the vape thing: my mom's *suuuper* allergic, so it is appreciated if people stay down-wind of the doors... She doesn't harass people about it, usually just waits or decides to do shopping at a different store so it can fade. :)
The aggressive Karen that slapped at the girlfriend must have just seen those two beauties simply glance at each other with love and recognized it so easily because she doesn't have it in her life at all. Such a toxic crumpled paper bag of a human . . .
Who also happens to be intoxicated, drunk, sh*t faced?
She sounded like she was a bit drunk too.
I used to live by the ocean in florida(i miss you Deerfield beach!!) and there are always women like that at the beach. Its like geezaloo ya old fart get a grip you are not the queen of the beach.
Luckily I was friends with the lifeguards and even some of the police officers for that stretch of beach and most would get rid of them. Its like we own a condo right there and they'd point to thr big buildings that line the beach and claim that only their condo owners could be on thus section of beach. But in reality the whole beach there is public property and the signs say so. And these old bittys were all snow birds anyhoo.
@@donnawalsh exactly. When I used to go out for drinks or whatever, there were plenty of people near who got more and more bitter the more they drank. It used to happen to me a lot, as well. It's easy to be bitter about seeing others in love when you don't have it in your life, it just also takes being a Karen as well to blame the people in love for you being miserable.
I have literally had an interaction where my neighbors were making noise at kinda weird hours and I just...calmly asked what was up. Turns out it was a welcome home party for someone they hadn't seen in like 10 years so it was gonna be loud but once it was done it'd be done, so i just dealt with it, once i knew. Amazing concept, that.
Personally I think in such cases you should just inform your neighbours a day earlier or at least on that day so they 1 know it can happen and 2 maybe (f.e. If they have a baby) organise a night at grandma's or sum. You can be loud for special occasions, just tell your neighbours beforehand
@@tiny._.sxnshine I agree with this, just be considerate and inform neighbors ahead of time so they can make plans accordingly.
I joined a dying church once. The new, young pastor was trying to revitalize it. The pastor wanted to start live-streaming services. The 20 people in the congregation freaked out. Wanted permission slips filled out, wanted to be able to opt out, the choir didn't want to be taped because they might make weird faces as they reached for a high note.
The law in our state allows for filming anything in a "public space". That law is further defined by the statement that "private space is that in which one would normally be comfortable disrobing".
So, if you aren't getting naked in the pews, it's considered PUBLIC.
Oh the fishing pole one “I’m a collier county tax payer”. That’s a SW Florida Karen. Special breed.
I will never understand people being so confident as to stick their phone in someone's face. I would be afraid that person would snatch the phone out of my hand and throw it in the ocean.
Right.....the only times I have been brave enough to film something was when I had a shirt pocket that the camera part of the phone could see above, so that I didn't have to actively hold it. I am not brave enough to be obvious.
@@SoManyRandomRamblings Makes sense to me.
If someone ever did do that to me that’s what my reaction would be
i see these videos and wonder why people don't knock the phone down, or grab it. i'd be inclined to do that if i were annoyed enough. but then i remember the laws about assault and battery.
My favorite is when the Karens tell you to move your smoking spot when it is cold enough you can see your breath, and you don't smoke.
😂😂
Yes. Lol
Correct response - I’ll quit when you do! And point out her breath, visible in the cold, too
So, I hate when people blast music anywhere. It's so inconsiderate. Not that I say anything; it's not worth a fight. If someone is going to be so obnoxious as to blast music at a level that no one else can enjoy any peace and quiet--or even their own music on their earbuds--then confronting them will get you nowhere. I get, though, that people can become frustrated and lash out. Still, not worth it.
for that occasion I had few pairs of cheap earbuds on me and gave them to those people, telling them I am sorry they cannot afford headphones : D passive-aggresive!
Charlotte, your mom is awesome!! That was a fantastic story of bully revenge. I would have left all the clothes on the ground in the fitting room. Unfold and carelessly refold things all over the store.. I would have left laughing. If you have ever worked retail, you know just how much that sucks!
My favorite is when they ask 'do you know how bad that is for you?' No, I've been living under a rock for the last 46 years. Do you know what else is bad for your health, Karen? Nor minding your business!🤬
As someone allergic to cannabis i appreciate you vaping outside a lot of the time people do it inaide and i have a migraine for hours afterwards
Not to mention the pot these days smells nothing like the pot of days gone by. Must be the chemical additives.
I'm all for people having a good time, but when people blast their radio/audio so loud that it is heard well beyond their immediate group, that just ticks me off. Most public areas, including beaches do have noise ordinances. The older man was well within his rights to ask that the music be turned down. I've always told my daughter that it's okay to party and and enjoy herself, but it is not okay to infringe on the enjoyment of others. With great freedom comes great responsibility.
Just get the cops, most beaches have rules about this annoying behavior.
@@deniseberman8633 Agree. It's easier to call the cops and then it becomes a - look at this Karen who called the cops. But if you try to settle the issue directly, you're attacked as a Karen anyway. I get that sometimes people are being ridiculous, like claiming a spot on the beach is their spot. But other times it's a legitimate complaint and it devolves into bullying the person for not just taking others obnoxious behaviour.
As someone who's asthmatic smoke and perfume affect me more than others so it is a bit annoying when you're trying to walk to an entrance or something and getting hit by people smoking outside... My asthma got significantly worse when I was in college because all the entrances to get into campus had smoking areas nearby and I found myself coughing more often and while I don't think it's hereditary my uncle died of lung cancer so it's something I think about a lot while I'm coughing my lungs out. I dropped out and I haven't been affected that much since then but my new job has a smoking area near their entrance so it's starting to come back again which is...just great. 😞
In my country smoking is banned in public, i love it, you have a special areas for smokers where they can smoke and thats about it.
Which country
I searched for a non smoking apt building. Move in. People smoke "secretly" in their apts, or vape, and surprise it fills the halls, a d gets in my apt, and my asthma flares. I speak to management and they claim that non smoking rule doesn't apply inside each apt! So STOP advertising as a non smoking aptvsince IT medically matters to those of us who cant breathe around vaping and smoking.
@@joywebster2678 That sounds like you might have grounds to sue. False advertisement at the bare minimum. You should definitely talk to a lawyer. Most will have free consultations. If you were to win, you could put any judgement money towards incurred medical bills.
@@huginug, it doesn't help in the US. A designated smoking area has to be a certain distance from the entrance, but that doesn't matter if the parking area is even further and you have to walk through the area that people are smoking in.
As someone with severe allergies and asthma even vaping can cause issues which is why you are not supposed to vape next to doors either. And yes I am that "Karen" who has called the police on people for smoking next to the doors. I have had to wear masks into buildings since before covid because of people smoking next to the doors (which is illegal) and then those smokers would often have the gall to get mad at me for "going into the store when you're sick" (again wearing the mask pre-covid). I would have to then explain to them that I had asthma and allergies and that they were the reason I was wearing the mask. And so a few times after some difficult encounters, yes I called the police on them. And yes, they did get fined. Now everyone wears masks, guess that is Karma for you.
This year I found out quite by accident that the cut off for fireworks outside of the 4th in WA & OR is 10 pm so I can understand being a little annoyed trying to get sleep so you can enjoy your 4th of July & being kept up all night by fireworks. My son's dad was going to pick him up on the 4th so we got fireworks to light off on the 3rd, we live in a very tiny town that is very safe so I was a little shocked when we came outside to find two police officers across the rd talking by their cruisers. My son wanting to be respectful walked over & asked if it was ok if he set off his fireworks, both officers walked over & explained that in WA & most of OR the cut off time outside the 4th was 10 pm but wanted to see what we had. I showed them it was just a pack of kids fireworks & they were like oh we really only enforce that rule for the big ones or the really loud screaming fireworks so you can set these off. I explained that my son would be at his dad's the following evening which was why we were out on the 3rd & they were so cool about saying "well this is your time for fun fireworks isn't it" and asked if they could join us for a few minutes. They would block the wind so my son could use the safety lighter & when the wicks on a few were very short & my son was a little nervous they asked if he wanted them to light them which he said yes thank you & handed over the lighter & then they did some confetti poppers with us. Police in our town are very different from a lot of communities, they do enforce laws of course but silly stuff that doesn't hurt anyone they tend to just let go especially if you're polite about it or ask first.
With older people seniors specifically ones with pace makers, the bass and beats of modern music can literally rattle them to their bones or pace makers. I played in a live band at an eagles club reg. We had to be very careful of the bass volume n music volume. It would stir up the older people cause anxiety n heart palpitations. I'm not saying that was the case but ya know " the more you know" lmao
Oh! I would’ve never considered that
They can also move along the beach? I wouldn’t ever play my music in public out loud but there are other things you can do before screaming at people. Somethings bothering me? I move. It’s a public place.
And here I thought I was always imagining things when I noticed that if I was close enough to the speakers that it messed with my heart rate. Good to know it wasn't all in my head, and my precautions were legitimate.
So not just older people.....anyone with a heart condition
I've never thought of that before, but it's probably true. I can feel it in my bones when the fighter jets fly over my house. (I live near an airport.) Just last week I had sneezed so hard that it rang my skull like a bell. That was a weird experience. I'm not old, but I can imagine how it would affect an old person even worse.
This is 100% real and true well said!!!
No my kids not my problem did not sit right, mostly I agree but in public it’s different. I go to a sushi place with a koi pond and I am friends with the owners. A group let their kids run around screaming left it because my group and I were far enough but next to the koi pond. These kids went outside grabbed rocks and were throwing them at the fish at the table next to us when the servers were gone. Parents were laughing at it. I spoke up and said are those rocks? Kids said no and proceeded to throw more and get another round. I raised my voice again - didn’t yell but loud enough staff and the family could hear at the closing restaurant and the parents gave me a dirty look and called me a nosey bitch for saying anything. I would speak up again.
That's definitely something that you should speak up about. Poor fish.
Plus if they are on the beach and fish are dying (no idea if that was the case or not), and this is an area prone to sharks, I'd say something, too.
I know a local beach where people legitimately hang out in their underwear and just do whatever they want. Nobody calls the cops on anyone (that I’ve ever seen) and people even have fires and bring dogs. I’m now realizing that this is a paradise that must be protected 😂
I can tell you the Oregon Firework issue was in Rockaway Beach. They are usually one of the only towns on the Oregon Coast that does major fireworks along with illegal fireworks on the beach. Everyone who lives or stays down there on a regular basis knows this.
So, fireworks are illegal here, and obviously people do still find a way to get a hold of them somehow, now... I'm an introvert so there is no way in hell I'd go out and confront them personally like the last Karen but I do call the police on them (you can do it anonymously!), every single time, and I'm not ashamed to admit it 😅I will keep doing it too because my elderly neighbour has sensory issues and she gets really freaked out... and her dogs also get scary stressed!
Fireworks are very stressful to people with sensory issues and PTSD, as well as to wildlife. They also can risk causing forest fires, such as in Oregon during the dry season. They are illegal for a good reason. I'd say it's good to call the police because you are doing most of the people and wildlife in the area a favor. And obviously confronting them will likely not be successful.
I don't go outside to nature (beach/hills/woods etc) to listen to other people's shitty music taste. It's intrusive to force me to have to listen to something just because you want to listen to it. In a shared space I think people should be mindful of intruding on others and not blast music. Get headphones if you can't bare the peace or at least keep it down so not to annoy others.
This. I once hiked almost an hour to get to a waterfall and when I reached it, there was a group of men playing music right next to the waterfall while smoking. Ruined what would've been a rewarding peace and tranquility. I didn't dare be a "Karen" since there was only me and my gf, and a bunch of them.
Agreed!
Scooch away, I guess. They have just as much right to listen to it as long as it's not violating any noise law.
Literally just leave if it bothers you so much lmao, people are allowed to enjoy music whether it’s up to your standards or not, especially on a beach where there’s typically so much space to go, no one’s forcing you to stay and listen to it 🤷♀️
You’ll find it’s easier to live when you just let people do things that literally causes no harm to you
@@akmal94ibrahim sounds like you ruined the moment for yourself by letting yourself get so upset about a group of people who got there before you enjoying themselves
LOL fisherman vs grandma: Anyone else hear the theme from Jaws as he kept glancing over and she was getting closer and closer? Or the Halloween theme music....she was that creepy.
OMG YES!! lmao I thought I was the only one
When I used to fish off the beach I was always shocked how many idiots can't stop and step behind me. And we were in the fishing area as the lake we fished at had it set up so people could fish from shore.
Also there are these orange bueys for the area so you can fish as it has big sandbar and jet ski would come though and snag our lines
But he got caught by the sheriff the last time we were fishing. Didn't see the sheriff was on the lake.
LOL!!! I think these miserable people just want people to feel as sh*tty as they do. The woman could probably see that man 100's of feet ahead and she still manages to walk right in his path. I was hoping he would snag her on his line!!!
Where I live, fishing (outdoor activities in general) is the culture. And the draw for tourists, and the reason one of our main employers are bass boat companies. So we try to respect the anglers’ spaces. And if they brush off a greeting, they’re playing with a fish, or they were taught to keep quiet to “not scare the fish” when they were young’uns. On smaller streets and back roads everyone still raises their hand off the steering wheel to wave at oncoming traffic (ok, ya caught me - we rarely have traffic, and there’s no stop lights for about 7 miles - that’s the next town)
Living 10 minutes from the beach I only go midweek so I can avoid people! The lady with the fisherman had tons of space to walk around him….just wow.
When ever someone is smoking or vaping, I have to move away because they both cause me serious headaches which will eventually lead to throwing up
You probably won’t see this Charlotte, but I have had a horrible mentality bad day, and watching you has helped me feel better!! Thank you!! You’re so beautiful , funny and sweet!!
Playing music on the beach bug me...maybe it's different because of where I am from but we have a lot of small beaches and they usually all get full/crowded in summer so if someone was playing music, it would bug a lot of people cos you can't really get very far away from them (and shouldn't need to). Luckily, most people understand that and don't play music.
Point being people just don’t have good manners anymore and don’t follow the public or private beach rules.
9:30 i was walking through the drugstore two days ago and bumped into a man who carried some kind of broomstick around. he blocked half the aisle. i ran into his stick and automatically apologized. he then had the nerve to say "better watch where you're going!" i heard a record scratch in my brain. i didn't even have to apologize, but did it anyway and then he had the nerve to be rude, lmao. i just let him be and went on. hope he steps on lego though.
That's when we take the stick and beat him with it
Or maybe that's just me
@@It-is-me...Melsie just shows what a kind core you have, imo.
@@dianeaishamonday9125 should have done that, shouldn't i? XD
@@dianeaishamonday9125 Bwahahahahahahaha!!! That sounds exactly like something my husband would say!
That will be my new go-to insult-- "Go step on a lego".
Vape is not harmless, you still emit vapours and depending on what you vape these will be mor or less harmful. Second hand ‘smoking’ is a documented health problem. The potential for another person getting harmed is a valid concern. Now just at the entrance is bad, there is no alternative route. On the beach, not so bad unless the vapor persons came later and did not consider the others.
I will say that people vaping indoors and ignoring complaints saying "It's just water!" kills me. Water does not smell like apple pie. And half the vape scents trigger my allergies, so it's just not fun to deal with.
And! We are breathing what they just breathed out. Eeeeeew!
Drunk Karen's that get put in their place is my FAVE!!!!!!
100% people need to stop going up to people telling them to stop the vape when they are clearly in their own space but Charlotte, you mentioned a door... some crappy building have the intake for the whole building ventalation coming from above the doors which means that the smell could disperse throughout the building. So I would only say stay 20ft away from doorways.
Also important to stay away from air conditioning units when smoking or vaping. It just pipes it right into the building.
As someone who is basically allergic to cameras, I do sympathise with people who just want to go to the beach and not end up in someone’s video. It may be allowed, but is it necessary, or appropriate? Especially when there are children around, you should be able to let your kid run around in the sand without worrying if footage will end up online and abused. I would never be aggressive about it though, just kindly ask them to film in a direction where other people aren’t visible. It’s not hard to be nice.
I dont know any place that allows the filming of children. If you do you must blur their faces or get permission.
The way I look at it is if you are in public just figure you are on camera at all times. Chance are its true. So just act accordingly. If you plan to do something embarrassing, do it in the privacy of your own home.
@@wasntme9578 for me it's not about doing anything embarrassing, I just absolutely hate being in front of a camera. Doesn't matter if I'm ready for it or not. For instance, I refused the staff photo at my job, it's not in my contract and they can't make me.
I just think people could be a bit more considerate and mindful about their surroundings when they whip out their camera to document every moment of their life.
@@wasntme9578 it's not about doing anything embarrassing for me either but I do not exist to be stared at and filmed by you like some zoo animal
@@becs3226
I have the same aversion to cameras. I dont want to end up on RUclips. It's just the reality we live in now. Security cameras everywhere. People making tic tok videos, parents documenting every step their children make, assholes being assholes. It's just a new normal that we have to get used to. It's only going to get worse not better. I'm just saying it's not worth losing it over.
I mean… if parents are filming/taking pictures of their own kids at the beach or a few friends are trying to get a skit or MV cover/spoof or a group pic at the beach and you happen to be caught for a handful of seconds in the background in passing I don’t get the big deal. If they aren’t focusing on you it’s highly unlikely that you are there for more than them panning the camera around or are even in focus in the background of group pictures.
Us parents all have a saying
"Not my circus not my monkies" lol
It's a nice way of saying mind ya damn business 🤣🤣
It's originally a Polish proverb.
@@tetedur377 yr getting as annoying as the spam now!
@@oldwelshlady6584 No kidding!! I'm thinking to myself, "report it once and don't comment on it".
Are you my cousin? Because that is what my aunt always says.
okay but if you're smoking or vaping near a door it can actually harm people, like people with asthma or long covid... if i even walk past someone smoking i can start coughing for like 10 minutes and need an inhaler, which can be really expensive when you don't have insurance....
Vape smoke smells too, and it travels just as regular smoke. And I'm saying this as someone who used to smoke. I had no idea how much my smoke was annoying others until I quit and experienced it myself.
10:33 - confession time by Charlotte 🙂 . Telling people to dress modestly at the beach always makes me laugh . Karens it seems can not stand other people being happy .
I couldn’t care less what people wear to the beach. Go naked if you want! Doesn’t faze me a bit!
They’re probably sexual deviants at home!
Seriously there is an epidemic of "oh no, I'm on a beach and people HAVE BODIES!!"
True. You don't impose your music preferences to every soul around.
Yes, Karens are the grain of sand in the oyster of life. Unfortunately, they never turn into pearls.
As an asthmatic, whenever someone smokes or vapes in my vicinity I just move away(if possible) you know like move seat in the bus etc no need to start sh*t. But if it's not possible to just move away, I politely inform them that I have asthma and the smoke can irritate my lungs and cause an attack. People are actually understanding and compassionate, they move away or stop. But some can have an attitude, and that's when it gets ugly.
Why was Charlotte yelling "Pack it up Karen" so damn satisfying?
