Praise to that pizzeria owner for handling the situation as he did. It’s not wrong to have a foreign language show playing in a restaurant where TVs are allowed. Don’t like it? Don’t watch it. It’s that simple.
The Karen story that upset me the most was the B who called the police and lied about a black man threatening her while hanging her dog The one that's really unsettling is the woman that is yelling for the "illegal" family to leave "her" house and to "go back to their country", or whatever she said
Out of all the Karen’s I’ve watched mostly from RUclips, WatchMojo had to start it out with some Canadian newscaster.. I’d bet any American wouldn’t know who she is. Great job!
I've got one to share, one which made me very angry but no one really seems to know about... there was a US politician by the name of Gordon Lawshe, who called the police on a 9-year-old black child. Why? "There's a little black woman spraying stuff on the sidewalks and trees," "I don't know what the hell she's doing, scares me though." What she was actually doing was spraying lanternflies, which are a pretty invasive species that carry fungal disease, but mostly destroy crops and plants like the aforementioned councilman's garden / lawn. So essentially, he called the police on A 9-YEAR-OLD for helping the community by getting rid of bugs. There's a very good video on that incident from the Law&Crime Network on RUclips called "‘Am I in Trouble?’: Neighbor Calls Police on 9-Year-Old Girl Spraying for Bugs," which I recommend if you want a brief synopsis on the story. It contains body camera footage of the incident, and the segment also mentions New Jersey's campaign: "Stomp it Out," that encourages locals to kill invasive species that are harmful to the environment. So, yeah, screw that dude.
@kissfanmac there's quite a few entries of British Karens too in this vid... and I'm from the UK and have to admit I didn't know some of the famous people - or totally forgot about their appalling moments!
Karen-esque behavior in an airport is bound to raise more than a few eyebrows, but the one with the fire extinguisher couldn’t have gone over well with the victims who bore the brunt of the foamy assault. In the fast-food cases, all they had to do was calmly explain the situation to an employee at the window or counter.
Central Park Karen: *"There's an African-American man threatening me and my dog!"* As you stood 12ft away... For 12 minutes straight... At 12pm in the afternoon...
Central Park Karen is the worst to me. Everything about that scenario is terrible. One, look at how she is treating her dog. Two, she was 100% in the wrong. He asked nicely for her to keep the dog on the leash and she calls the police and claims that she is under attack by a black man. It is terrible
i agree to me, karens are people with a huge sense of entitlement. Sometimes racism and bigotry come along with it but a number of these are pure racism and nothing more
That woman in North Carolina was most definitely a level 3 Karen. It's one thing to say a racial slur but to justify it, even saying she would do it again? That's a new low.
What I find most ridiculous about the "I'm only being rude and racist because of life problems woe is me" is that they think that's a legitimately good excuse when people who aren't actually racist just...don't say racist things no matter how stressed out they are...because they don't think racist things.
But of course this channel has to continue pandering to the woke crowd while apparently having three out of their four first comments being obvious Bots
For the 2003 one I had to go back and listen again when they said she hit her with her car. And when she began to complain about her drink and side, like what the actual heck
They have always existed, just more prominent now. I had one that looked exactly like Aileen Wuornos tried to challenge my Mom in a parking lot. "Aileen" was going the wrong direction and my Mom moved over as far as she could. She tried to challenge my Mom. I said, "Mom, I got this." As soon as I exited the car that tore out backwards of the parking lot.
Soup Karen should of been on this list she was deranged throwing a boiling hot soup into a workers face causing her to have a nosebleed & burns on her face over a burnt lid then she went to prison!
Don’t forget about that Karen reporter from Deadspin who gave an 8 year old boy who was Kansas Chief City fan a hard time over his face paint that was to show support for his football team.
Nugget Karen was a boss Karen, she also told the restaurant person "don't make me change into my final form" Also, I feel sorry for the dog of that lady in 2020.
I don’t think I’ve ever come across a Karen before. Maybe once when opening up my register at the beginning of the work day; ir takes several seconds and I told this to one lady who was waiting to buy something. I think she was in a hurry because she was literally the first customer of the day. I politely told her that it would be just one moment… yeah that didn’t sit well with her. She threw a fit - pointed at me telling my manager that I was super rude that I was “making” her wait. My register was barely warming up. I don’t recall the other details as this was …. maybe ….. when I was in my early 20s. I’m 39 now. Was working at Babies R Us during this.
This is a great video. Karens from 2000 to 2023. I had no idea there were karens in the 2000s. These karens shouldn't have said or done any of these things. Now, they have to pay the price. These karens look nice. It's a shame how they acted. Great list, Watchmojo!
I reckon that every single one of us has had at least one "bad day" that would qualify for this list, but we were fortunate enough that it wasn't caught on tape, and/or we weren't famous enough for it to gain traction in the media.
She a completely horrible person…she did that because she was confronted over a dine and dash she tried to get away with…then after getting arrested…she called black officers arresting her the “n” word…
I am surprised. I didn’t know in 2009 was the year when they first used the name Karen. I was in school at the time. There’s a lot of things in the world that I don’t know about
I'm not American and it surprises me that even though the history of the Spanish language in the USA is longer than English (just look at all the Spanish city names) and STILL there are a$$hats that gripe about having to hear Spanish in their daily lives.
Don't forget our country was not discovered. So a lot of Indigenous names to places. But yes, really stupid not to understand basic Spanish in all border states. Southern California will be better at it because very white Texas hates immigrants.
Mexicans speak Spanish. That is why a lot of towns/cities in the US have Spanish origins (specifically the southern part of the United States). Spain landed in Saint Augustine, Florida in 1565, but they never colonized the land known now as the United States of America. As of 2023, only 13% of Americans speak Spanish, 78% speak English, & the last 9% of the country is mixed languages. Happy Holidays!
@@JasonMistretta-wf5ip Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Spain, Uruguay, Venezuela, Puerto Rico all speak Spanish. Puerto Rico is a U.S. Territory. The better question is how many Americans are bilingual or multilingual.
@@mygreywolf Aside from Puerto Rico (which is an American territory) none of these countries you listed are part of the United States of America. What is the point of your comment here? MANY Americans are bilingual (I speak French fluently), but your comment has no bearing on the original comment that United State citizens shouldn't be surprised by Spanish speaking citizens. Bilingual Americans speak English FIRST in the United States because English is the primary language of the US! When I go to France, I speak French FIRST because that is the main language of France. When I go to Brazil, I TRY to speak Portuguese FIRST (though I stink at it--hahaha) because I respect the country's FIRST language. Are you getting my "drift" on respecting a country's FIRST language?....
@JasonMistretta-wf5ip PLEASE tell me the United States first language. Do you forget we voted on it and English lost? Should it be my native tongue? Tsitsalagi.
I remember the era were karens would get fun nicknames like 'permit patty' and 'barbecue betty'. To also note, the central park Karen i think is the definition of pure evil.
Personally I think the McDonald's Karen should have gone to Carls Jr. They don't have a uniform breakfast. Or Jack In The Box. They don't have a uniform breakfast either. McDonald's is probably the only fast food restaurant that has a uniform breakfast
the fact that amy cooper decided to say african american instead of black is so insidious to me, she really was trying to disguise her racist actions with "pc" language
Karen go crazy i meet one and she tryed to fight because sadly i didn't get my phone sadly but once i one she called the cops and i said oh karen u good here i well call a doctor for u she tryed it again but the police tryed to get her in jail but i said no because i wanted to stay and said ok let her go for now she try it 3 times but i just ran because she just was going to try it again and i was tired

I feel exactly the same. I don't understand how and why people can be so cruel and how they live with themselves!!
@kissfanmac there's quite a few entries of British Karens too in this vid... and I'm from the UK and have to admit I didn't know some of the famous people - or totally forgot about their appalling moments!
Anything can happen in this cruel world, anything
"No Shirt. No Shoes. No Service." - no problem
"No Shirt. No Shoes. No Mask. No Service." - meltdown

This is in no way disagreement, but are you asking Karen's to have common sense?
@@djch33zy_b4con6Well to be fair that’s how normal people are. Karen’s are more like insane asylum escapees or aliens rather than normal people.
I agree
Abandoning the elderly. That horrified me. I find it heartbreaking
Central Park Karen: *"There's an African-American man threatening me and my dog!"*
As you stood 12ft away...
For 12 minutes straight...
At 12pm in the afternoon...
I actually LOLed when I saw that one. Whudda MAROON.

He asked nicely for her to keep the dog on the leash and she calls the police and claims that she is under attack by a black man. It is terrible
Watching that dog desperately struggling to avoid strangulation was horrifying.
7:00 Throwing ANYBODY into the trash. Why? Freaking WHY? How do these people sleep at night? 😡😡
The term Karen, much like prank and meme has truly lost all meaning. When bigots, racists, criminals, even murderers, are being labelled as “Karen’s”.
i agree to me, karens are people with a huge sense of entitlement. Sometimes racism and bigotry come along with it but a number of these are pure racism and nothing more
that makes little sense. where do you think "karen" came from? racism whites making false accusations against POC. aka racism.
I think that lady from 2020 that got slapped at the gas station for harassing a young lady was golden
That woman in North Carolina was most definitely a level 3 Karen. It's one thing to say a racial slur but to justify it, even saying she would do it again? That's a new low.
She's a bigoted racist. I think labeling her a Karen is being too nice to her.
Level 3 racist MAGA
What I find most ridiculous about the "I'm only being rude and racist because of life problems woe is me" is that they think that's a legitimately good excuse when people who aren't actually racist just...don't say racist things no matter how stressed out they are...because they don't think racist things.
Exactly right.
I think that is great that in more recent times people stand more against karens and the consequences are bigger
I grew up in Karenville, Ca.
This makes me laugh and feel warm and fuzzy knowing now that the rest of the world knows how insufferable they are.
Lol, know Kernville but not Karenville.
Ha!
Omg
Kids having a temper-tantrum is normal but for adults, is not. It’s just weird
Jesus! A 16-hour phone call!
I could barely make it through 35 mins
Imagine the phone bill.
It’s crazy how we’ve gone from what did she say to what the hell is their problem to OH MY GOD IT’S A KAREN all in 24 years.
People can’t blame alcohol. When they do bad actions, they will have consequences
Well I'll be. A top 24 list of Karens. Never thought I'd see the day.
There has been a lot this year.
But of course this channel has to continue pandering to the woke crowd while apparently having three out of their four first comments being obvious Bots
@@donaldroman2717 unfortunately bots have been a major spam problem for a while and it's crazy nothing gets done about it
And isn’t Kevin the word they use for males . People need to be kind
The 2007 story is so mean and sad. Who does that to their own mom?
That was beyond a “Karen”….When you’re talking about essentially leaving someone for dead…that’s gone beyond the typical Karen
16 hours on the phone? lmao, even my own mother wouldn't talk to me for 16 hours straight...
I can only do 2 hours even when I’m dating someone
For the 2003 one I had to go back and listen again when they said she hit her with her car. And when she began to complain about her drink and side, like what the actual heck
19:53 NO ONE FORCES RACISM!!!
I am happy that I grew up in the 90's. I did not see any Karen's at the time.
They existed, they just weren't being filmed everywhere.
They have always existed, just more prominent now. I had one that looked exactly like Aileen Wuornos tried to challenge my Mom in a parking lot. "Aileen" was going the wrong direction and my Mom moved over as far as she could. She tried to challenge my Mom. I said, "Mom, I got this."

21:11 This Lady still disgust me...What kind of Sociopath coughs on people especially during a Pandemic?
She's worse than a Karen, she's a terrorist.
It’s ridiculous that Karens can be found everywhere these days.
They've always been with us, but they got a lot bolder after 2015.
Ain’t that the truth.
Didn’t she also loose her dog?
Should have included BBQ Becky and Victoria Secret Karen 😂 as those are the most memorable ones lol
Some people really shouldn’t drink alcohol.
Amazing video watch mojo,great job of the best video of 2023 so far about rude people that mean to other people in human history.
Even little children have better sense than Karen's.
Surprised the Karen who coughed on a cancer patient wasn't on this list
As a woman who lost her mother to cancer last November, I am enraged by that Karen
The best part of these is hearing how many of them have been fired.
A lot do these aren’t “Karen’s”, just people who made stupid mistakes, some of the, not even horrible mistakes
They either apologize or double down but always end up canceled.
i went to a Mets v Braves game during the John Rocker years and I think the booing permanently affected my hearing, it was glorious
Nugget Karen was a boss Karen, she also told the restaurant person "don't make me change into my final form"
Also, I feel sorry for the dog of that lady in 2020.
I'm surprised that the judge didn't simply dismiss the case when she explained that she had driven to the McDonalds _while_ _drunk._
Wow, 10 years for Mayo assault 😂😂😂
I love how your videos become informative
2020 Karen is ridiculous. I find the situation ridiculous
Complaining about Spanish on the TV in an Italian Pizzeria…?!🤔
Nancy Goodman? More like Nancy Badman, Badwoman.😂
Who stays on the phone with someone for 16 HOURS?!
All are unsettling...
“Why’d you leave your last job?” Yes…
idk about "horrified". but the one i "remember" most is the big gal that raged over a harmless little girl selling water.
16hrs though. Smh 😑
"Recorded illegally" and was "unfortunately let go"? There are three Karens here. The two ladies and WatchMojo.
