@@Wade1579 - Fair enough. That probably wouldn't end well. lol. But a rude stranger like airplane Karen, that's a good time to turn their own words back on them.
Story 2, when she pulled that God excuse, I would’ve reminded her how one of the Ten Commandments is to not covet other people’s property and throw her words back in her face.
What I love to do is really fluster the Sola Scriptura crowd by asking them the precise book, chapter, and verse of what they're asserting. 99 times out of 100, they can't produce the words for that which they haven't even read, never mind learned...
in addition to that being a bad example to her child I'm thinking of a responce like. "That's your child? Your a mother? Do you share your cell phone with him? I'm pretty sure there's something in the bible about being horrible to children and also about lieing... Also if OP has their credit card info saved on that console the kid could buy things that the OP would pay for...
Last time I flew, my daughter was 22 months old. (It's been a while. LOL) It was a transatlantic flight, and you'd better believe I had about a million different ways to keep my child entertained. I was covered in stickers by the end of the flight, but my daughter didn't bother anyone, and neither did I. 😂
I think one of the proudest moments of my life was when getting off a transatlantic flight with my two sons, aged 3 and 6 at the time, and the flight attendant complimented my kids on how great their behavior had been on the 8 hour flight. It certainly helped that we brought tons of activities and snacks and actually paid attention to our children!
My brother and I were the only four and six year old that were being dragged through the airport begging "please mommy no more planes!" I was pretty old when I realized that there were people that had never been on a plane before and thought it was exciting. That many flights at that young an age. In and age before ipods had even come out, let alone smart phones or modern handheld gaming devices. Only the fancy airplanes had screens in the seats and they weren't free. Also my brother and I were both neurodivergent and hyperactive. You know what my mom did? Bought us each a brand new toy we were only allowed to open after take off. Got us a proper meal before we boarded. Had some form of candy or cookies, salty snacks, and juice on hand. Gum was put in our mouths first thing to help with the ear popping. There were crayons and activity books in her bag. And finally, she directed our attention out the window as often as there was anything even mildly interesting. She also forced my motions sickness prone brother to take something for it right before the flight and relocated the barf bags for her and my seats to my brother's. She never half-assed being a mom. If she can manage to keep two neurodivergent, hyperactive, toddlers under control without access to any electronic devises, the no one has any excuses.
When my family was having a reunion in a different stated, I purposely booked a spirit flight in order to fly together with my sister and her 5 kids including a 3 month old baby (because that's all she could afford with kids), in order to help her with the kiddos. We all took turns switching seats with the kids, to keep them entertained and helped with the baby. Good thing that two middle kids were knocked out the whole time, about which they were later upset because they missed the entire flight 😅
@@PositiveStellarLuckyAchiever sorry lady i have adult material on it not suitable for a child of 8, or if you want to be less judged/or if that bothers you , violent games, personal photos etc .
totaly disagree, but she should have checked OR asked if he did forget something. if you make THEM remember, THEM take responsibility and if not CONSEQUENCES, thats good parenting. Its bad parenting doing EVERYTHING for your small goblin. How would he learn, especiel with 8 years old already, what responsibilit is? What CONSEQUENCES are? you not start at that age? No wonder we got GenZ and GenAlpha...
I don't lend out my electronics either, considering there's 1: no guarantee they won't break it, and 2: very little chance repairing or replacing it, won't come out of my pocket
There isnt, she just thinks that sharing = community owned🙄 some parents believe that if their kid wants something, the other kid should “share,” and teach these values to thier children. Its ridiculous 😂
To the woman with the scar on her face: That Dad lost an good opportunity to teach his child that he didn't need to be scared and that people people are much more important than how they look on the outside, which only the wrapping like the wrapping, on a fabulous present. You discard the wrapping but enjoy the present. Adults and kids need to realize that it's the person that's important. Instead he hurt you, an innocent person and reinforced the wrong idea in the child's mind
People say and stare at those with disabilities,scars, prosthetics or those who just look differently. The stares and mumbling under their breath disgusting comments are a regular occurrence. It would be lovely to call them out and make them feel about as small and self conscious as they are making others feel. Get empathy people.
@@patriciakilbourn4323whats funny is one of my favorite heros (thor) is missing an eye. Would he go up to him tell him hes ugly because his eye is missing? Would he go up to bucky and tell him his arm is gross? I hate people.
I once had a Karen try to convince me to give her kid my $1,000 tablet to play with. I told her no and she kept pushing the issue. When I placed it into my carry on and went to use the restroom. While I was gone she removed it and handed it to her brat. I came back and noticed that it was missing and that her kid had it. I told her to return it and she refused to do so. I called for the flight attendant and requested assistance with recovering my tablet. The lady claimed that the tablet was hers and refused to return it. I then asked for the flight attendant to have the police waiting at the gate when the plane landed. At that time my niece decided to intervene and spoke up saying "I didn't want to have to work on my vacation but I guess I have to." She then stood up, reached into her carry on retrieved her U.S. Marshall's badge and handcuffs. She then stepped up to the lady and said "Maam, you are under arrest for 2 felonies, 1 for stealing my uncle's tablet, and 2 refusing to follow the instructions of the flight crew." , after which she handcuffed the lady and moved her to the rear of the airplane for the rest of the flight. Since it happened on an aircraft the crimes became federal meaning that she would be prosecuted in federal court which does not allow time off for good behavior. The lady received a 5 year prison sentence for the theft charge and another 3 for not obeying the flight crew. She was also placed on the No Fly list for 10 years.
Story 2: I wouldn't give up my game either. I've heard so many stories of EP saying their child is not like others, they are an angel, and they turn out to be the most spoiled demons around. I would be surprised if OP let the kid use the game, when they went to get it back at the end of the flight, the kid would have thrown a tantrum and the EP would demand that OP let her child keep the game citing that OP is too old to be playing games anyways and the child deserves it. Its like their is a published EP/Karen manual out there for all to use.
When she asked OPs age, I expected her to use the you're too old for video games shtick. Wait until she sees my library of gory, scary, and foul language riddled MA games. Then further blow her mind saying people my age make a fricking living off of their stream feeds playing these games. Also noticed how "mother" antagonized her kid into having a tantrum, who immediately started kicking the seat in front of him. Yeah, angel my hiney.
The lady who wanted to sleep on the plane, the flight attendant should be fired. OP was in the right. He had done nothing wrong so the flight attendant should have left him alone the moment he said he wanted to read. The flight attendant should have dealt with the rude woman and told her that she use the mask or get over it, OP has just as much right to be comfortable as she does. For the woman with the scars. Don't let them get you down, it's all about perspective. Those scars are SEXY AS HELL because it means you survived the trauma that caused. Be proud not disheartened.
Yeah, and that woman trying to sleep. She told the flight attendant that OP must listen to her. Well guess what Karen, SO DO YOU! That was an opportunity for the the attendant to put her in her place and tell that is not to disturb OP or anyone else for the rest of the flight, or they could make it a very unpleasant experience for her when they land.
FA is not wizard. It will be easy if the flight hadn't took off. Just call security to escort her out of the airplane. When the airplane is already high in the sky, there are limited means to deal with trouble passenger. Moving a bothered passenger out of the botheree is one of those limited means. Other option is to gag and hogtie the botheree. But I doubt a small airplane would had enough crews onboard to do it.
I had a friend who served as a medic in Gulf One. Her base got rocketed and while she was treating the wounded a Scud went off directly over them. She threw herself over two wounded men and sustained shrapnel wounds to her back and the left side of her face. Her facial scars weren’t as severe as the one in the 5th story, but for nearly a year she suffered many of the same stupid reactions and indignities. She also had some ignorant Karen tell her she couldn’t park in the Home Depot spot designated for Purple Heart recipients because “women can’t be veterans”.
I’m a female veteran. I really enjoy when I get yelled at for parking in veteran parking spots. It’s definitely a thing. Once I parked in a vet spot and a dude didn’t see my husband sitting in the passenger seat. He was pissed because he wanted the spot. He walked up when I opened my door and said, “you can’t park there, it’s for veterans.” Then my husband got out and the dude started backing away and said, “oh, he must be the veteran.” My husband said, “Nope she is, she served for your right to be an asshole.” My husband is also a veteran, it’s where we met in medic school, he just enjoys messing with idiots. One time I had a dude tell me I couldn’t be a veteran because veterans don’t drive Subarus. 🙄
Karen: Can my kid borrow your game? Me: Sure. But only if you pay me $100.00 per minute of play. Karen: What?! That's ridiculous! Me: So is asking a stranger for their property.
There are three groups of people you should NEVER piss off: Movers, food service people, and airline employees. They can f*ck with your stuff and your food in so many ways, without you knowing, if you get on their bad side.
Swap seats story: The good news is that the FA didn't attempt to force OP to switch seats. Nintendo story: And good luck ever seeing it again if you had passed it over. In response to "how old are you", the proper response is "old enough not to fall for your BS". Turn off light story: Karen's lucky there WASN'T police waiting at the end of the flight because they'd have been there for her. Scar story: OP, I'm sorry any of that had to happen to you, both the accident and the idiot's reaction. You did very well in telling him off and making him realize what an ah**e he was being. Overhead bin story: Karen was attempting to avoid the checked baggage fee. Replacing everything in that bag is going to cost her even more, not to mention the bag itself.
The sad thing is... When a FA is taking your bag off a plane to be checked, it's an unwanted check and you don't have to pay a fee. I know this from my multiple flights last September. I and a handful of my family members were forced to check our carryon-sized bags because the flight was full. Not one of us had to pay a single cent to get them checked at the door.
Story one..... NOPE! I ain't "playing" with anyone's brat kid.😡 Story two.... OP has no obligation. Karen needs to supply entertainment for her own brat. 😮 Story three..... Karen gets 'upgraded' to No-Fly Class. 😅
My face went through a car windscreen when I was 14 & the taunts of 'scarface' I got at school were horribly hurtful so I have every sympathy for the girl with the facial injury. Oh, and back in the late 60s, such taunts were 'just teasing & stop being so sensitive'
Last time I ran into a Karen on a flight, I got my revenge on her by proceeding to clog the toilet with a log jam that had been piling up for a couple days by that point😅 When the flight attendant announced that the restroom was out of order, Karen flipped out screeching: “WTF??? I HAVE TO PEE!!! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW?!!” She had to spend the entire 4 hour flight holding it in 😂😂
Lady, nowhere in The Bible does it say "Thou shalt not refuse to share thine Nintendo Switch". Also, it is YOUR responsibility to have packed things to keep your child entertained. A lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.
I grew up out there, Lubbock specifically, and I remember those halcyon days when "Flight Simulator 95" came out. I didn't have a computer, but a buddy of mine did and of *course* he had it. In those early days of the internet, one could download within the very short time of hours any desired expansion packs for whatever region in which you lived. My buddy commented on the fact that the one for the West Texas area was billed as being able to enjoy "miles and miles of nothing but miles and miles." Which is quite true, as you know. 🤣
Lubbock is a place, small, but is well known… at least for Texans. Should have done something more south like midland, gun barrel , Palestine, Victoria even. BUTTT some say I can be too petty, so I guess anywhere but with Karen I guess is fine.
I think a solution to karens demanding you let their kid use your switch is just to lie and say something along the lines of "idk lady, you're kid might find one of the h*ntai games on here, and I'm sure you dont want your precious baby being exposed to that"
I have a large scar going from my hairline all the way to my chin. It's very dramatic and, even though I have a beard which covers a lot of it, it's still quite noticeable. One man once told me I needed to cover my scar because it scared his child. I told him that my government was so impressed by my scar that they gave me a medal for having it and the Purple Heart medal is awarded for being wounded in combat. Everyone else around glared at the guy and he shut up. Incidentally his son didn't seem to be paying any attention to me.
Story #3. Much better that her kids see her get them all kicked off the plane than to see her get her way. Best for those kids to realize as early as possible that acting that way has consequences.
Story 3 - I don’t blame OP for getting mad at what that Karen mom said. First she called him a thief, then she tried to blackmail him into upgrading her and her kids seats to first class then she called him a pervert.
All of that was part of a plan, she only bought her kids tickets to save money and assumed she could bully or coerce her way for that seat. Then try to say OP took her pass because it could make sense with it being next to her kids. Then last resort call him a chomo to get him to stand down. And then try to work her way to an upgrade
I flew a 14+ hour flight non stop from London UK to Los Angeles a few years ago. As we were settling in, a mom walks by with a toddler. I dreaded the eventual wailing that I still thank the gods never came...
Story 2: "just let him play with it for a few minutes!" Just "a few minutes"? She doesn't SOUND like she's the parent of an 8-year old. Did she imagine that he'd play a game or two and then just hand it back without a fuss? Ha! Fat chance. He'd keep it until the end of the flight, then whine he wanted to keep it for the rest of his trip to replace the one he left at home.
26:18 ... in the US, it is actually against airline policy for flight attendants to place bags in the overhead bin. Some airlines go as far as firing a FA if they so much as touch a bag going into the bin - the reason? A flight attendant's job is safety of the passengers, then their comfort. The bags have been know to injure FAs due to the height and force needed to get large bags into the bin. If a FA strains their back they have to be taken off the flight as it would be a safety hazard to have one of the people needed to operate emergency exits... ... so please, do not think an FA's job is to deal with your baggage if you cannot get it to fit. They will have it checked. That's all, nothing else. FAs have been sued because they pushed too hard on a bag when they decided to help and something got broken inside the bag. These are some of the reasons it is NOT the job of an FA to make your bag fit. I'm just leaving this comment so others understand that in no way is it OP's duty to make this Karen's bag fit into the bin.
i was flying home on a long flight. they started up the movie that i didn't want to see. i had the window shade open to read and the flight attendant asked to close it as others were watching the movie. i said, "no. i'm not watching the movie and i want to read my book". i did shut it about 2/3 down, but i wasn't going to sit in the dark watching some dumb movie.
When someone demands you share something, perhaps just offer to do so if the Karen will also share the mortgage on your house or your student debt. And when they say 'How old are you?' respond with 'Obviously older than you seeing as I am old enough to have learned some manners'.
So many entitled mothers! Most of us try to teach our children that no means no. What kind of self-absorbed, abusive men are these women trying to raise?
@@gorilladisco9108I always laugh at that "insult" because who *gave* us those participation trophies? Our boomer parents who couldn't stand to see their kid not win anything, because *they* never won anything or amounted to anything. Boomers handed out the trophies, and millennials get made fun of for it. Logic 🙄🤦🏻♀️
When I was 25, I had a brain tumour removed. Flying home 3 weeks later was . . . interesting. I had an incision that ran from the crest of my head down in front of my ear to my jawline. It was still seeping blood on occasion, 1/2 of my head was shaved, and I still had a row of staples along its length. Frankly, I was still so dizzy that I needed help to walk down the aisle (the overwhelming dizziness eased off after 6 months, but my balance still sucks). What I recall as I made my way to my seat was each row of passengers, as I came in sight, looked up at me wide-eyed, then quickly put their heads together with their seatmates, whispering. -100 out of 10, do not recommend.
Story 1: My baby sitting rate is $25/hr. The travel fee is an additional $15/hr. And an underage fee of $35/hr for anyone under 18. If you'd like me to watch your kid, that'd be $75/hr.
When you're on a plane (in particular) holding your temper and letting the other person (over) react is the smart thing to do, when TSA or the police get involved you don't want them aimed at you.
Typical Entitled Karen threat.... "I will have your job!" Hahaha! What makes her believe she has ANY power to affect someone's job!? Sheesh.... 🙄 Last story..... Bag going to Texas, owner going to Illinois. Classic! 😅
I really wish we could know the fallout from the last story. A bag that big must have a lot of important stuff in it and after that it'd be several states away
Nintendo Story: If I was OP, the moment Karen tried using God to Guilt me, I'd have immediately looked her in the eye, smiled sweetly and said "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's Property." then turn back to my game... 😄😁😆😅😂🤣
Point of correction: For the last story, "Lubbock" is not a "small city." When I was growing up there, the population was quickly nearing 200,000, and as of the last good census, that number was at 257,141. I know that's not Houston or Chicago-sized, but if anything, I'd argue it's more like a "medium city." Still, given that this flight attendant most likely never saw anything past the airport's very remote location (assuming they've even flown in to Lubbock Preston Smith "International" Airport at all), I can see how one could make that mistake.
I had a really bad accident as a kid & am lucky to be alive. I took off the right side of my face, shoulder & back, ripped my mouth/lips including the roof of my mouth (my lips had to be reattached), smashed out most of my teeth & smashed up my jaw. My nose bone stops short & if you poke the tip of my nose its soft n squishy - which is a fab party trick & grosses some people out lol Now, after plastic surgery to correct the only really noticeably visible scar on my upper lip (its looks similar to a hare lip/cleft palate scar, all other scars are small or covered by my fringe etc) it doesnt bother me at all, in fact i dont notice it when looking in the mirror anymore & at now 45 am past the stage of caring about a scar. But as a 9 yr old, when i went back to school after the accident, up until my early 20s it was shocking the amount of people who would comment on it. I was bullied relentlessly as a kid for it but as a teen n adult it was more just stupid, cruel comments like scar face. When ur a 20 yr old girl, whos not comfortable in her skin as it is, its heartbreaking & so humiliating to hear that kinda stuff. Now, not that you can really see is as its faded with time (and me turning into an old bag lol) i just rock it. You wanna ask about it, go ahead i have no issue with it & am glad you have the courtesy & balls to ask instead of stare. BUT DONT DO IT TO A KID especially, but dont comment on shit like that to people, you have no idea how they have that scar or why.
in june I flew to fl in a similar plane in story 4. I joked it was lie a bus with wings. No Karen stories. flight there, in the seats next to me (was in the 1 seat side) woman had a small dog in a carry one who was making noise. she apologized and I said it was fine (it was. dog made small yaps here and there) on the flight back sat in the 2 seat side. as I was boarding in one of the last groups, saw an older man sitting in the seat next to mine. I had booked a window seat (so I wouldnt have to stand to let someone out to use bathroom. it was a short flight, wouldnt need to use myself). I remembered seeing him need a wheel chair and walker to board and had a cane with him. I asked him if it was easier for him to scoot over to window seat (aka mine) or get up stand in aisle to let me in. I said I didnt mind switching which he thanked me. we had a nice flight. he mentioned he was flying to his son's wedding
Story 2: Anyone who ask me that I would tell her that it's her fault not to shell out the money to for her kid and I would pointed out what to stop the mother/kid from stealing or breaking my property on a flight.
STORY 3:We hear those stories of tweens and teens, embarrassingly shaking their heads at their parents antics, quietly apologizing for their parents behavior, pleading with their parents to just stop already. Those little kids getting escorted off the plane by security, all eyes on them, having whatever plans they had messed up for their trip, are possibly nowmdown the road to becoming apologetic and fed up with their Karen mother.
I hate the parents who think every child has to share with another child. A child is entitled to not want to share something, especially if it's something important to them. An adult can have boundaries around their possessions but a child doesn't??
After hearing all the stories in this video, I feel like if I'm going on vacation somewhere by plane, I'm saving up my money to fly first class because there's absolutely no freaking way I'm dealing with Karens, Kevins, and their bratty little hellspawn on a commercial flight. Either that or just not go on vacation and just stay home.
The jedi mind trick did not work on the op S2 No is no. You dont get an expensive electronic device because you stupidly left yours at home. Lady in row was an MVP.
Story #3: the woman who asked to be upgraded. I would have said, "Sure, let's go to the ticket counter and do it, ladies first." That would have been the easiest way to get her off the plane.
The only time i called for a flight attendant was when we where starting procedures to land at the airport, and the lady next to me (with the walkway between me and her) was sleeping, and thus did not know about the landing part or putting seatbelts on. When the FA came she told me what's wrong? i pointed at the lady, the FA woke her up carefully and gently and informed her we where gonna land and she needed to put on her seatbelt and that was that. It was for ehr (and others) their safety.
Story 2 - If that lady had asked me that I’d have said ‘None of your damn business lady. And as his mom it’s YOUR Job to provide entertainment to your child, not strangers with electronics.’
Summer I took a flight with my kids. Before we left for the airport I checked with them 4 times if they had their switch, books, and headphones. I was taking no chances even though we had tvs in the seats i wasn't taking any chances
In the second story, I would have responded with "Okay, You hand me $500 to use the switch and you will get it back when I get the switch back. there will also be a ten dollar per hour usage fee." Of course she is likely going to get mad at that, to which my response would be "A lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency or obligation on my part."
I was on a flight with 4 unaccompanied minor. Two of them were fussy. One was afraid. The flight attendant tried to calm him and gave some toys to the other but nothing seemed to work. In first class there was a woman with her daughter who was about 5 years old. The woman called the flight attendant. I thought she was going to complain about the noise from the child who was afraid. Instead she asked the flight attendant if she would move the unaccompanied children to first class as she had brought many games and toys for her daughter and was happy to share. I saw the flight attendants face and it was priceless! She promptly moved the children. For the rest of the flight the only sounds from the children was laughter and once in awhile a squeal when one of them won a game. It was the most unselfish thing I have ever seen on a plane or indeed anywhere else.
Story 1 - First of all the lady didn’t ‘ask’ she demanded, and then telling OP that he can play with her child… Hell No! I’ve got nothing against kids but unless you’re gonna pay me to be a babysitter to your kid I’m not doing it.
4th Story - "How dare you! You look like you belong in the back of a plane!" 😳 HOOOOLLLLYYYY SHIIIIIIT!! Damn she really pulled THAT card, huh? How dare SHE!
Story 6: PERFECT :D right outside lubbock (a couple of places in it) there are thrift stores that mainly sell items from unclaimed luggage dept at the airports so she has abt a month to get her stuff LOL
Story 6: This is a result of airlines adding charges for checked bags and not strictly enforcing carry-on size restrictions. As to one solution, create gate check racks just like they have on the smaller planes in story 4. When you arrive at the terminal, it will be waiting for you right there, and you're not that passenger trying to shove something oversized into a space not meant to contain it.
If her bag fit sideways, it probably was within carry-on limits. Mine does, and on my last flight I also had to have it checked. There simply isn't enough space in the overhead compartment if each passenger takes a carry-on and a backpack, as allowed per regulations. Btw.: on that flight I wouldn't have had checked baggage even if it was free. I don't need any checked luggage on a two day business trip and most of my carry-on is electronics that I sure as hell wouldn't put with the checked luggage. So that last flight my carry-on was almost empty and most of the stuff went into my bag pack before handing them my carry-on 😂
I try to think of the last flight I took when hearing about Karen's in the sky. I always sleep thru flights. Pressure changes, and my head aren't friends. On my last flight, I sat in the window seat next to these two late teen/early 20s young men. I woke up about 20 min before we landed and the guy sitting next to me and had his tray down with two bottles of water on it. As soon as I woke up he offered me a bottle of water and said, "This us for you. You missed the drinks." I thanked him and told him that he was very kind. I didn't speak to him again, but I'll always remember how sweet that was.
Trying to get a total stranger to give up their electronics to them and their child - NOOO! Story 2: Trying to steal a seat because she didn't plane better - wrong Karen. Story 3: What an ))$(hole that man was! Story 4: The woman ACTUALLY thought she could just get away with a bag that big that couldn't be stowed in the overhead? Some people!
Yall know darn well that dad didnt move because of her face, but because he just had an oh 💩! moment realizing that he actually messed up. He left out of embarrassment of himself.
I’m a flight attendant, and can so relate to the young lady not wanting to share her Nintendo. I worked a flight with an entitled mom, demanding food for her child (amongst other things) including her trying to guilt a nearby family in to sharing their items. I approached the mom and asked if this is her first time flying with her child? EM: no (in a huffy tone). Me: Then you should know it’s your responsibility to provide snacks and entertainment for your child. The entitled mom just sat there huffing and muttering under her breath. I found some paper and a pen for her child to draw on (not the kid’s fault his mom is an idiot). Never heard anything after that, but nothing surprises me anymore.
Story five: your right that could have been a learning experience teaching the child that sometimes people may have scars or birth marks on their skin or face, but thats not a reason to treat them differently.
Story 2. When asked what games there are on the console, just make some up. "Satan Breathes", "Sundown Slaughter", "Pain of the Demon", "Erectile Funtion", just make sure it sounds evil and/or sexual. And if you know real games that fall in that cateGORY, say those. Because you know mommy would never let her little angel play anything like that.
When you said, "At least they had the decency to keep it in the country." I immediately had a picture in my head of Karen rushing to book a flight to get the bag back from Gardemoen (Oslo)😂😂
I will never understand why people are nice to these people... "No" is a complete sentence followed by "Excuse me Employee this person is harassing me..."
Story 2: My eventual response - after being tired of trying to be polite - would have been "Well I guess your son just needs to learn to make a packing list so he doesn't forget things."
If someone on a plane, train, or bus interrupts me to say "excuse me" to get my attention, idc what they want I am flat-out saying "Oh, your excused. I understand if you farted. It's a small space, but I won't blame you for the smell" and then go back to what I was doing.

I have to remember this response. Hilarious.

Last time I flew, my daughter was 22 months old. (It's been a while. LOL) It was a transatlantic flight, and you'd better believe I had about a million different ways to keep my child entertained. I was covered in stickers by the end of the flight, but my daughter didn't bother anyone, and neither did I. 😂
You're an amazing mum, and you did a great job in making sure your toddler and everyone else enjoyed the flight in peace🙈
I think one of the proudest moments of my life was when getting off a transatlantic flight with my two sons, aged 3 and 6 at the time, and the flight attendant complimented my kids on how great their behavior had been on the 8 hour flight. It certainly helped that we brought tons of activities and snacks and actually paid attention to our children!
My brother and I were the only four and six year old that were being dragged through the airport begging "please mommy no more planes!" I was pretty old when I realized that there were people that had never been on a plane before and thought it was exciting. That many flights at that young an age. In and age before ipods had even come out, let alone smart phones or modern handheld gaming devices. Only the fancy airplanes had screens in the seats and they weren't free.
Also my brother and I were both neurodivergent and hyperactive.
You know what my mom did? Bought us each a brand new toy we were only allowed to open after take off. Got us a proper meal before we boarded. Had some form of candy or cookies, salty snacks, and juice on hand. Gum was put in our mouths first thing to help with the ear popping. There were crayons and activity books in her bag. And finally, she directed our attention out the window as often as there was anything even mildly interesting. She also forced my motions sickness prone brother to take something for it right before the flight and relocated the barf bags for her and my seats to my brother's. She never half-assed being a mom.
If she can manage to keep two neurodivergent, hyperactive, toddlers under control without access to any electronic devises, the no one has any excuses.
Passport Control Agent: Do you have anything to declare?
Mother: Yes. Bring plenty of scratch and sniffs.
When my family was having a reunion in a different stated, I purposely booked a spirit flight in order to fly together with my sister and her 5 kids including a 3 month old baby (because that's all she could afford with kids), in order to help her with the kiddos. We all took turns switching seats with the kids, to keep them entertained and helped with the baby. Good thing that two middle kids were knocked out the whole time, about which they were later upset because they missed the entire flight 😅
Story 2: Your 8-year-old didn't forget his toy, Karen. YOU forgot his toy.
Agreed. Remembering toys is a parent's job, not a kid's job.
@@PositiveStellarLuckyAchiever sorry lady i have adult material on it not suitable for a child of 8, or if you want to be less judged/or if that bothers you , violent games, personal photos etc .
totaly disagree, but she should have checked OR asked if he did forget something. if you make THEM remember, THEM take responsibility and if not CONSEQUENCES, thats good parenting. Its bad parenting doing EVERYTHING for your small goblin. How would he learn, especiel with 8 years old already, what responsibilit is? What CONSEQUENCES are? you not start at that age? No wonder we got GenZ and GenAlpha...
Karen: "I'm not going to ask again!"
Oh good, thanks.
It's like the "I will never shop here again!"
Good. We don't want your assholery
'not going to ask again ' ?
Promise? I won't be as polite next time I say NO. 😮
I’m pretty sure there is no mention of adults being obligated to share a Nintendo switch with a random child in any part of the Bible or testaments.
I’ll vouch for that. But there is about selfish people like her
I don't lend out my electronics either, considering there's 1: no guarantee they won't break it, and 2: very little chance repairing or replacing it, won't come out of my pocket
NO is a complete sentence and always a good reply. 😮
There isnt, she just thinks that sharing = community owned🙄 some parents believe that if their kid wants something, the other kid should “share,” and teach these values to thier children. Its ridiculous 😂
I would’ve retorted back with “poor planning on your part doesn’t necessitate an emergency on mine”
Story 2 Lady: How old are you?
Me: Excuse me, but how old are YOU?
"I'm old enough to know how rude you are being." 😅
If you wa t your kid to be entertained, bring entertainment for your child, don't try to steal other people's belongings.
Or try to guilt strangers into giving up theirs! 😮
That was my first thought too.
Older than Harry Potter and younger than Methuselah...
Beyond that, it's none of your Bloody Business!
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
To the woman with the scar on her face: That Dad lost an good opportunity to teach his child that he didn't need to be scared and that people people are much more important than how they look on the outside, which only the wrapping like the wrapping, on a fabulous present. You discard the wrapping but enjoy the present. Adults and kids need to realize that it's the person that's important. Instead he hurt you, an innocent person and reinforced the wrong idea in the child's mind
People say and stare at those with disabilities,scars, prosthetics or those who just look differently. The stares and mumbling under their breath disgusting comments are a regular occurrence. It would be lovely to call them out and make them feel about as small and self conscious as they are making others feel. Get empathy people.
@@pickle_pup8187 I agree. Also why didn't the father change seats with the child?
@@patriciakilbourn4323whats funny is one of my favorite heros (thor) is missing an eye. Would he go up to him tell him hes ugly because his eye is missing? Would he go up to bucky and tell him his arm is gross? I hate people.
I once had a Karen try to convince me to give her kid my $1,000 tablet to play with. I told her no and she kept pushing the issue. When I placed it into my carry on and went to use the restroom. While I was gone she removed it and handed it to her brat. I came back and noticed that it was missing and that her kid had it. I told her to return it and she refused to do so. I called for the flight attendant and requested assistance with recovering my tablet. The lady claimed that the tablet was hers and refused to return it. I then asked for the flight attendant to have the police waiting at the gate when the plane landed. At that time my niece decided to intervene and spoke up saying "I didn't want to have to work on my vacation but I guess I have to." She then stood up, reached into her carry on retrieved her U.S. Marshall's badge and handcuffs. She then stepped up to the lady and said "Maam, you are under arrest for 2 felonies, 1 for stealing my uncle's tablet, and 2 refusing to follow the instructions of the flight crew." , after which she handcuffed the lady and moved her to the rear of the airplane for the rest of the flight. Since it happened on an aircraft the crimes became federal meaning that she would be prosecuted in federal court which does not allow time off for good behavior. The lady received a 5 year prison sentence for the theft charge and another 3 for not obeying the flight crew. She was also placed on the No Fly list for 10 years.
Would that includes Con Air flights?
That’s what she gets!
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
Story 4: All of this over a single light bulb that is on. Karen here made everyone uncomfortable, and even pulled the race card, that ain't nice
At least the Old Mangot her to shut up, that was awesome!
"You're going to Hell!"
"See you there. I'll be holding the pitchfork."

@@MarkJohnson-ro1ed Yes.
Lmao 🤣
Story 2: I wouldn't give up my game either. I've heard so many stories of EP saying their child is not like others, they are an angel, and they turn out to be the most spoiled demons around. I would be surprised if OP let the kid use the game, when they went to get it back at the end of the flight, the kid would have thrown a tantrum and the EP would demand that OP let her child keep the game citing that OP is too old to be playing games anyways and the child deserves it. Its like their is a published EP/Karen manual out there for all to use.
When she asked OPs age, I expected her to use the you're too old for video games shtick. Wait until she sees my library of gory, scary, and foul language riddled MA games. Then further blow her mind saying people my age make a fricking living off of their stream feeds playing these games.
Also noticed how "mother" antagonized her kid into having a tantrum, who immediately started kicking the seat in front of him. Yeah, angel my hiney.
The lady who wanted to sleep on the plane, the flight attendant should be fired. OP was in the right. He had done nothing wrong so the flight attendant should have left him alone the moment he said he wanted to read. The flight attendant should have dealt with the rude woman and told her that she use the mask or get over it, OP has just as much right to be comfortable as she does.
For the woman with the scars. Don't let them get you down, it's all about perspective. Those scars are SEXY AS HELL because it means you survived the trauma that caused. Be proud not disheartened.
Yeah, and that woman trying to sleep. She told the flight attendant that OP must listen to her. Well guess what Karen, SO DO YOU! That was an opportunity for the the attendant to put her in her place and tell that is not to disturb OP or anyone else for the rest of the flight, or they could make it a very unpleasant experience for her when they land.
@@AnimaMandala Even after informed it was NOT op's seat, he only talked to OP.........
FA is not wizard. It will be easy if the flight hadn't took off. Just call security to escort her out of the airplane.
When the airplane is already high in the sky, there are limited means to deal with trouble passenger. Moving a bothered passenger out of the botheree is one of those limited means. Other option is to gag and hogtie the botheree. But I doubt a small airplane would had enough crews onboard to do it.
@@Some_Guy_6 I think you confuse it with other story. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Scars are not sexy.
"I'm _not_ going to ask again...!"
"Whew. _That's_ a relief..."
I had a friend who served as a medic in Gulf One. Her base got rocketed and while she was treating the wounded a Scud went off directly over them. She threw herself over two wounded men and sustained shrapnel wounds to her back and the left side of her face. Her facial scars weren’t as severe as the one in the 5th story, but for nearly a year she suffered many of the same stupid reactions and indignities. She also had some ignorant Karen tell her she couldn’t park in the Home Depot spot designated for Purple Heart recipients because “women can’t be veterans”.
Hope she sued HD
Dafuq? She was a legit wounded vet.
That woman...the misogyny is coming from inside...
@@nannettepolcastro4799 it wasn’t Home Depot’s fault, just an ignorant fool who didn’t know that one in 10 veterans these days are women.
@@nannettepolcastro4799 For what? For a customer bothering her?
I’m a female veteran. I really enjoy when I get yelled at for parking in veteran parking spots. It’s definitely a thing.
Once I parked in a vet spot and a dude didn’t see my husband sitting in the passenger seat. He was pissed because he wanted the spot. He walked up when I opened my door and said, “you can’t park there, it’s for veterans.” Then my husband got out and the dude started backing away and said, “oh, he must be the veteran.”
My husband said, “Nope she is, she served for your right to be an asshole.”
My husband is also a veteran, it’s where we met in medic school, he just enjoys messing with idiots.
One time I had a dude tell me I couldn’t be a veteran because veterans don’t drive Subarus. 🙄
Karen: Can my kid borrow your game?
Me: Sure. But only if you pay me $100.00 per minute of play.
Karen: What?! That's ridiculous!
Me: So is asking a stranger for their property.
There are three groups of people you should NEVER piss off:
Movers, food service people, and airline employees. They can f*ck with your stuff and your food in so many ways, without you knowing, if you get on their bad side.
Swap seats story: The good news is that the FA didn't attempt to force OP to switch seats.
Nintendo story: And good luck ever seeing it again if you had passed it over.
In response to "how old are you", the proper response is "old enough not to fall for your BS".
Turn off light story: Karen's lucky there WASN'T police waiting at the end of the flight because they'd have been there for her.
Scar story: OP, I'm sorry any of that had to happen to you, both the accident and the idiot's reaction. You did very well in telling him off and making him realize what an ah**e he was being.
Overhead bin story: Karen was attempting to avoid the checked baggage fee. Replacing everything in that bag is going to cost her even more, not to mention the bag itself.
No, the proper responce is "None of your business"
@@sheilaolfieway1885 It amounts to the same thing. My response just insults her a bit more.
The sad thing is... When a FA is taking your bag off a plane to be checked, it's an unwanted check and you don't have to pay a fee. I know this from my multiple flights last September. I and a handful of my family members were forced to check our carryon-sized bags because the flight was full. Not one of us had to pay a single cent to get them checked at the door.
Story one..... NOPE! I ain't "playing" with anyone's brat kid.😡
Story two.... OP has no obligation. Karen needs to supply entertainment for her own brat. 😮
Story three..... Karen gets 'upgraded' to No-Fly Class. 😅
My face went through a car windscreen when I was 14 & the taunts of 'scarface' I got at school were horribly hurtful so I have every sympathy for the girl with the facial injury. Oh, and back in the late 60s, such taunts were 'just teasing & stop being so sensitive'
The correct response: Well at least my ugly is only skin deep, yours runs to your core!
"My face will improve as it heals. But what are you going to do about yours?"
That lady in the second story saying "...a nearly 2 hour flight" like that's a long time. 😆
If that Karen was sooo concerned about a random person touching her kids why did she get a seat away from them.
It's likely that she wasn't able to book three seats together so she just figured she'd brow beat someone into giving up their seat.
Because she didn’t want to pay for 3 designated seats together.
Last time I ran into a Karen on a flight, I got my revenge on her by proceeding to clog the toilet with a log jam that had been piling up for a couple days by that point😅
When the flight attendant announced that the restroom was out of order, Karen flipped out screeching: “WTF??? I HAVE TO PEE!!! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW?!!” She had to spend the entire 4 hour flight holding it in 😂😂
Lady, nowhere in The Bible does it say "Thou shalt not refuse to share thine Nintendo Switch". Also, it is YOUR responsibility to have packed things to keep your child entertained. A lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.
It *does* say "Thou shalt not covet anything that is thy neighbor's," so she needs to go back and read it again.
As a Texan, the second she said "Lubbock" in that last story, I choked. West Texas is literally the middle of nowhere.
I grew up out there, Lubbock specifically, and I remember those halcyon days when "Flight Simulator 95" came out. I didn't have a computer, but a buddy of mine did and of *course* he had it. In those early days of the internet, one could download within the very short time of hours any desired expansion packs for whatever region in which you lived. My buddy commented on the fact that the one for the West Texas area was billed as being able to enjoy "miles and miles of nothing but miles and miles." Which is quite true, as you know. 🤣
Same here! Her bag will be lost in a mountain of tumbleweeds
you think she didn't know that
i would have said Anaktuvuk Pass
-middle of Alaska anyone
Lubbock is a place, small, but is well known… at least for Texans. Should have done something more south like midland, gun barrel , Palestine, Victoria even. BUTTT some say I can be too petty, so I guess anywhere but with Karen I guess is fine.
I'm only familiar with it due to Reba.
the often forgotten commandment "thou shall give your electronic gaming devices to those younger than thine self"
I think a solution to karens demanding you let their kid use your switch is just to lie and say something along the lines of "idk lady, you're kid might find one of the h*ntai games on here, and I'm sure you dont want your precious baby being exposed to that"
that’s great LOL 😂😂
especially seeing how the Nintendo E Shop has no filter…
Amazing lol but also "your kid" not "you're kid" 😅
@hayleyz1703 Oops. I even got it right later in the sentence and was just too brain fried to notice the first time, lol
I have a large scar going from my hairline all the way to my chin. It's very dramatic and, even though I have a beard which covers a lot of it, it's still quite noticeable. One man once told me I needed to cover my scar because it scared his child. I told him that my government was so impressed by my scar that they gave me a medal for having it and the Purple Heart medal is awarded for being wounded in combat. Everyone else around glared at the guy and he shut up. Incidentally his son didn't seem to be paying any attention to me.
Story #3. Much better that her kids see her get them all kicked off the plane than to see her get her way. Best for those kids to realize as early as possible that acting that way has consequences.
My favorite phrase to a talking Karen who won’t shut up, I just keep saying “F off C”. Over. And over. And over.
Sharing is both people getting a turn, not just giving your kid something. I wouldn’t want his horrible sticky fingers on my stuff either.
The last story number six that entitled Karen’s luggage is going to Texas without her 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Story 3 - I don’t blame OP for getting mad at what that Karen mom said. First she called him a thief, then she tried to blackmail him into upgrading her and her kids seats to first class then she called him a pervert.
My response to her would be that if I had enough money to upgrade her, I would upgrade myself.
Makes one wonder if SHE was the pervert…
@@2themoon863 She probably was
All of that was part of a plan, she only bought her kids tickets to save money and assumed she could bully or coerce her way for that seat. Then try to say OP took her pass because it could make sense with it being next to her kids. Then last resort call him a chomo to get him to stand down. And then try to work her way to an upgrade
I flew a 14+ hour flight non stop from London UK to Los Angeles a few years ago.
As we were settling in, a mom walks by with a toddler. I dreaded the eventual wailing that I still thank the gods never came...
Story 2: "just let him play with it for a few minutes!" Just "a few minutes"? She doesn't SOUND like she's the parent of an 8-year old. Did she imagine that he'd play a game or two and then just hand it back without a fuss? Ha! Fat chance. He'd keep it until the end of the flight, then whine he wanted to keep it for the rest of his trip to replace the one he left at home.
26:18 ... in the US, it is actually against airline policy for flight attendants to place bags in the overhead bin. Some airlines go as far as firing a FA if they so much as touch a bag going into the bin - the reason? A flight attendant's job is safety of the passengers, then their comfort. The bags have been know to injure FAs due to the height and force needed to get large bags into the bin. If a FA strains their back they have to be taken off the flight as it would be a safety hazard to have one of the people needed to operate emergency exits...
... so please, do not think an FA's job is to deal with your baggage if you cannot get it to fit. They will have it checked. That's all, nothing else.
FAs have been sued because they pushed too hard on a bag when they decided to help and something got broken inside the bag.
These are some of the reasons it is NOT the job of an FA to make your bag fit. I'm just leaving this comment so others understand that in no way is it OP's duty to make this Karen's bag fit into the bin.
i was flying home on a long flight. they started up the movie that i didn't want to see. i had the window shade open to read and the flight attendant asked to close it as others were watching the movie. i said, "no. i'm not watching the movie and i want to read my book". i did shut it about 2/3 down, but i wasn't going to sit in the dark watching some dumb movie.
Story 2: Some people are just don't want to share something like a Switch. That's just normal, how hard is it to accept?
Because they're being told "No!", something they were never told while growing up
Story 5 (the scarred face): It would be so easy to tell his kid that "She seems to have been in an accident". What's so difficult about it?
When someone demands you share something, perhaps just offer to do so if the Karen will also share the mortgage on your house or your student debt.
And when they say 'How old are you?' respond with 'Obviously older than you seeing as I am old enough to have learned some manners'.
Best not to engage after the first presumptuous question. Blank death stare works well.
I'd love to know which part of the bible says that OP specifically has to share a video game with that lady's kid
So many entitled mothers! Most of us try to teach our children that no means no. What kind of self-absorbed, abusive men are these women trying to raise?
They are members of Participation Trophy Generation, what do you expect?
@@gorilladisco9108I always laugh at that "insult" because who *gave* us those participation trophies?

When I was 25, I had a brain tumour removed. Flying home 3 weeks later was . . . interesting. I had an incision that ran from the crest of my head down in front of my ear to my jawline. It was still seeping blood on occasion, 1/2 of my head was shaved, and I still had a row of staples along its length. Frankly, I was still so dizzy that I needed help to walk down the aisle (the overwhelming dizziness eased off after 6 months, but my balance still sucks). What I recall as I made my way to my seat was each row of passengers, as I came in sight, looked up at me wide-eyed, then quickly put their heads together with their seatmates, whispering. -100 out of 10, do not recommend.
Story 1: My baby sitting rate is $25/hr. The travel fee is an additional $15/hr. And an underage fee of $35/hr for anyone under 18. If you'd like me to watch your kid, that'd be $75/hr.
I really don't understand the patience these OPs have, I would have started each of those interactions with an "F OFF!"
When you're on a plane (in particular) holding your temper and letting the other person (over) react is the smart thing to do, when TSA or the police get involved you don't want them aimed at you.
Me too. Just one calm, quiet F-- Off.” then turn away and ignore them.
Typical Entitled Karen threat.... "I will have your job!" Hahaha! What makes her believe she has ANY power to affect someone's job!? Sheesh.... 🙄
Last story..... Bag going to Texas, owner going to Illinois. Classic! 😅
Last story, he should’ve put it on an international flight.
Yeah, strange way to get a new job
As I wait in an airport for the next 5 hours, this oughta be fun
I really wish we could know the fallout from the last story. A bag that big must have a lot of important stuff in it and after that it'd be several states away
Nintendo Story: If I was OP, the moment Karen tried using God to Guilt me, I'd have immediately looked her in the eye, smiled sweetly and said "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's Property." then turn back to my game...
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
So you didn't want to babysit someone's brat?!? Good on you!!
My last few flights have been horrendous! Delays, rude people, bad weather…missed connections…..etc!
Point of correction: For the last story, "Lubbock" is not a "small city." When I was growing up there, the population was quickly nearing 200,000, and as of the last good census, that number was at 257,141. I know that's not Houston or Chicago-sized, but if anything, I'd argue it's more like a "medium city." Still, given that this flight attendant most likely never saw anything past the airport's very remote location (assuming they've even flown in to Lubbock Preston Smith "International" Airport at all), I can see how one could make that mistake.
I had a really bad accident as a kid & am lucky to be alive. I took off the right side of my face, shoulder & back, ripped my mouth/lips including the roof of my mouth (my lips had to be reattached), smashed out most of my teeth & smashed up my jaw. My nose bone stops short & if you poke the tip of my nose its soft n squishy - which is a fab party trick & grosses some people out lol
Now, after plastic surgery to correct the only really noticeably visible scar on my upper lip (its looks similar to a hare lip/cleft palate scar, all other scars are small or covered by my fringe etc) it doesnt bother me at all, in fact i dont notice it when looking in the mirror anymore & at now 45 am past the stage of caring about a scar. But as a 9 yr old, when i went back to school after the accident, up until my early 20s it was shocking the amount of people who would comment on it. I was bullied relentlessly as a kid for it but as a teen n adult it was more just stupid, cruel comments like scar face. When ur a 20 yr old girl, whos not comfortable in her skin as it is, its heartbreaking & so humiliating to hear that kinda stuff.
Now, not that you can really see is as its faded with time (and me turning into an old bag lol) i just rock it. You wanna ask about it, go ahead i have no issue with it & am glad you have the courtesy & balls to ask instead of stare. BUT DONT DO IT TO A KID especially, but dont comment on shit like that to people, you have no idea how they have that scar or why.
Story 3: thanks for the massive free upgrade, Karen.
in june I flew to fl in a similar plane in story 4. I joked it was lie a bus with wings. No Karen stories. flight there, in the seats next to me (was in the 1 seat side) woman had a small dog in a carry one who was making noise. she apologized and I said it was fine (it was. dog made small yaps here and there)
on the flight back sat in the 2 seat side. as I was boarding in one of the last groups, saw an older man sitting in the seat next to mine. I had booked a window seat (so I wouldnt have to stand to let someone out to use bathroom. it was a short flight, wouldnt need to use myself). I remembered seeing him need a wheel chair and walker to board and had a cane with him. I asked him if it was easier for him to scoot over to window seat (aka mine) or get up stand in aisle to let me in. I said I didnt mind switching which he thanked me. we had a nice flight. he mentioned he was flying to his son's wedding
Story 5. Just tell everyone who asks "no one ever wins a knife fight" and say no more about it.
Story 2: Anyone who ask me that I would tell her that it's her fault not to shell out the money to for her kid and I would pointed out what to stop the mother/kid from stealing or breaking my property on a flight.

@@Rickettsia505 even better, 🤣🤣
STORY 3:We hear those stories of tweens and teens, embarrassingly shaking their heads at their parents antics, quietly apologizing for their parents behavior, pleading with their parents to just stop already. Those little kids getting escorted off the plane by security, all eyes on them, having whatever plans they had messed up for their trip, are possibly nowmdown the road to becoming apologetic and fed up with their Karen mother.
I hate the parents who think every child has to share with another child. A child is entitled to not want to share something, especially if it's something important to them. An adult can have boundaries around their possessions but a child doesn't??
After hearing all the stories in this video, I feel like if I'm going on vacation somewhere by plane, I'm saving up my money to fly first class because there's absolutely no freaking way I'm dealing with Karens, Kevins, and their bratty little hellspawn on a commercial flight.
Either that or just not go on vacation and just stay home.
Sounds like a plan, until you realize that wealthy people have just as much if not more of a chance at spawning entitled people as the economy class.
The jedi mind trick did not work on the op
S2 No is no. You dont get an expensive electronic device because you stupidly left yours at home. Lady in row was an MVP.
Story #3: the woman who asked to be upgraded. I would have said, "Sure, let's go to the ticket counter and do it, ladies first." That would have been the easiest way to get her off the plane.
So sorry the lady with the scar had to deal with that horrible person. You’re beautiful sweetheart.
Story 5: Hope that father and kid moved seats because he felt ashamed. How disgusting
To the OP of the second story, you should have just told her to give her kid her phone to play with.
The only time i called for a flight attendant was when we where starting procedures to land at the airport, and the lady next to me (with the walkway between me and her) was sleeping, and thus did not know about the landing part or putting seatbelts on. When the FA came she told me what's wrong? i pointed at the lady, the FA woke her up carefully and gently and informed her we where gonna land and she needed to put on her seatbelt and that was that. It was for ehr (and others) their safety.
Story 2 - If that lady had asked me that I’d have said ‘None of your damn business lady. And as his mom it’s YOUR Job to provide entertainment to your child, not strangers with electronics.’
Summer I took a flight with my kids. Before we left for the airport I checked with them 4 times if they had their switch, books, and headphones. I was taking no chances even though we had tvs in the seats i wasn't taking any chances
You made a non entitled Karen? They made a non entitled Karen.
Welcome to Entitlement Park.
Karens on planes, it’s too bad commercial jets don’t have ejection seats.
In the second story, I would have responded with "Okay, You hand me $500 to use the switch and you will get it back when I get the switch back. there will also be a ten dollar per hour usage fee." Of course she is likely going to get mad at that, to which my response would be "A lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency or obligation on my part."
Like the sands of time. The world revolves around all of us entitled people.
I was on a flight with 4 unaccompanied minor. Two of them were fussy. One was afraid. The flight attendant tried to calm him and gave some toys to the other but nothing seemed to work. In first class there was a woman with her daughter who was about 5 years old.
The woman called the flight attendant. I thought she was going to complain about the noise from the child who was afraid. Instead she asked the flight attendant if she would move the unaccompanied children to first class as she had brought many games and toys for her daughter and was happy to share. I saw the flight attendants face and it was priceless! She promptly moved the children. For the rest of the flight the only sounds from the children was laughter and once in awhile a squeal when one of them won a game.
It was the most unselfish thing I have ever seen on a plane or indeed anywhere else.
Story 1 - First of all the lady didn’t ‘ask’ she demanded, and then telling OP that he can play with her child… Hell No! I’ve got nothing against kids but unless you’re gonna pay me to be a babysitter to your kid I’m not doing it.
Story 1: to the EM “My going rate for babysitting is $15/hr with a guarantee of two hours. You wanna pay that?”
More. My granddaughter charges a PITA fee. Pain in the a$$.
Story 4: "For God's sake, lady! SHUT UP!" The line that won the day.
4th Story - "How dare you! You look like you belong in the back of a plane!" 😳 HOOOOLLLLYYYY SHIIIIIIT!! Damn she really pulled THAT card, huh? How dare SHE!
Story 6: PERFECT :D right outside lubbock (a couple of places in it) there are thrift stores that mainly sell items from unclaimed luggage dept at the airports so she has abt a month to get her stuff LOL
Story 6: This is a result of airlines adding charges for checked bags and not strictly enforcing carry-on size restrictions. As to one solution, create gate check racks just like they have on the smaller planes in story 4. When you arrive at the terminal, it will be waiting for you right there, and you're not that passenger trying to shove something oversized into a space not meant to contain it.
If her bag fit sideways, it probably was within carry-on limits. Mine does, and on my last flight I also had to have it checked. There simply isn't enough space in the overhead compartment if each passenger takes a carry-on and a backpack, as allowed per regulations.
Btw.: on that flight I wouldn't have had checked baggage even if it was free. I don't need any checked luggage on a two day business trip and most of my carry-on is electronics that I sure as hell wouldn't put with the checked luggage. So that last flight my carry-on was almost empty and most of the stuff went into my bag pack before handing them my carry-on 😂
I love that the 18 year old “accidentally” football checked that lady back in her seat. 😂 Karma baby!❤
Story 1: I love how narcissist make demands what no benefits to the person they want a favor from
I try to think of the last flight I took when hearing about Karen's in the sky.
I always sleep thru flights. Pressure changes, and my head aren't friends. On my last flight, I sat in the window seat next to these two late teen/early 20s young men.
I woke up about 20 min before we landed and the guy sitting next to me and had his tray down with two bottles of water on it. As soon as I woke up he offered me a bottle of water and said, "This us for you. You missed the drinks." I thanked him and told him that he was very kind. I didn't speak to him again, but I'll always remember how sweet that was.
Trying to get a total stranger to give up their electronics to them and their child - NOOO! Story 2: Trying to steal a seat because she didn't plane better - wrong Karen. Story 3: What an ))$(hole that man was! Story 4: The woman ACTUALLY thought she could just get away with a bag that big that couldn't be stowed in the overhead? Some people!
Yall know darn well that dad didnt move because of her face, but because he just had an oh 💩! moment realizing that he actually messed up. He left out of embarrassment of himself.
I’m a flight attendant, and can so relate to the young lady not wanting to share her Nintendo. I worked a flight with an entitled mom, demanding food for her child (amongst other things) including her trying to guilt a nearby family in to sharing their items. I approached the mom and asked if this is her first time flying with her child? EM: no (in a huffy tone). Me: Then you should know it’s your responsibility to provide snacks and entertainment for your child. The entitled mom just sat there huffing and muttering under her breath. I found some paper and a pen for her child to draw on (not the kid’s fault his mom is an idiot). Never heard anything after that, but nothing surprises me anymore.
Story five: your right that could have been a learning experience teaching the child that sometimes people may have scars or birth marks on their skin or face, but thats not a reason to treat them differently.
Story 2. When asked what games there are on the console, just make some up.
"Satan Breathes", "Sundown Slaughter", "Pain of the Demon", "Erectile Funtion", just make sure it sounds evil and/or sexual. And if you know real games that fall in that cateGORY, say those. Because you know mommy would never let her little angel play anything like that.
When you said, "At least they had the decency to keep it in the country." I immediately had a picture in my head of Karen rushing to book a flight to get the bag back from Gardemoen (Oslo)😂😂
Fluff, what you meant to say at the opening was, If you had a Bad trip, listen to these & thank your lucky stars, that at least it wasn't This bad 😂!
The second story, as I learned in the US Army, "Piss poor planning on your part, does *NOT* constitute an emergency on my part."
I will never understand why people are nice to these people... "No" is a complete sentence followed by "Excuse me Employee this person is harassing me..."
Story 2: My eventual response - after being tired of trying to be polite - would have been "Well I guess your son just needs to learn to make a packing list so he doesn't forget things."
So many Karens in this episode taking commercial flights. You'd think they'd use their brooms.
Show me the passage in the Bible that says an adult must share their Nintendo with a stranger's kid.
When a Karen harasses a single man on a plane, the man gets his seat upgraded for free and Karen gets removed from the flight in handcuffs.
Story 1 isn't a useless flight attendant, he's doing exactly what he's supposed to do.
I’m even more grateful that I haven’t encountered Karen-types when I’m playing on my Switch, flying or otherwise.
If a person is ahead of you in the plane, they get off first. Pushing her makes you rude too.
If someone on a plane, train, or bus interrupts me to say "excuse me" to get my attention, idc what they want I am flat-out saying "Oh, your excused. I understand if you farted. It's a small space, but I won't blame you for the smell" and then go back to what I was doing.
"Excuse me" is supposed to be polite. But the *tone* some folks take with phrase...
@@s.h.6858 But almost no one uses it in a nice tone. If/when it is, I typically am more receptive, though... And when we are talking public transportation, it is almost never for a benevolent reason bc most people are selfish
