When my daughter was two, she had learned, that dog owners are obligated to pick Up after their dogs. One day, she see an of leash dog pooping, and the owner (who's holding the leash), just walks on. Then my daughter loudly said "Eww.. mommy, she didn't pick Up the poop". The owner turned instant bright red. Guess she felt busted.
@@ElizaBetsy_one of my neighbors often walks his dogs and always picks up his poo actually didn't have bags one day he saw me out side and hollered he be back later to grab it cuz his baggy container thing was empty. I said just a second and grabbed him a whole roll of poo bags as I got extra in my last chewy order for free. He was so embarrassed about running out but he's got 2 dogs and his 2 grand puppies hecwalks 2 times a day lol. I was glad to help. Told him to drop the baggies in my trash bin cuz it was next to the road for tomorrow puck up. It far better than him having to carry them for rest of the walk lol us I love all his little fur balls. 😊
In the first story, Op did absolutely nothing wrong. Her FIL could have easily served himself. Other homes have other customs, and he should have respected his DIL's home customs.
In my Sister & BIL's house, the TV was on incessantly, especially during football season. My Dad & Mom hated that but never said anything because it was their house we were visiting. My BIL once had the nerve to tell my Dad to put the TV back on because he was watching a game. My Dad said, "in your house, you do what you want, in my house, the TV goes off when we sit down to dinner". P. S. My BIL rarely, if ever, came to my Parents' house again for a meal.
My friend, She keeps her keys in her kids diaper bag since the car is a keyless start, Well she got out to go get her baby and when she closed her door, the car locked. It was around 105f outside and like the moment she realized she locked her baby in a locked car, She grabbed a rock and straight busted out the window. Said the window can be replaced, her baby couldnt
Lucky for the lady I used to daycare for mom and dad lived across the street from me. Her daughter hit the lock button when she left the keys in. And she wouldn't hit the unlock button
I really hope the dad in the last story got his son an extra cookie for being so smart. I love when little kids call out adults on that kinda bull pucky. Perfect.
Exactly!! This always comes to mind when I’m explaining why I don’t want kids. I know I’m not up to the challenge, but that’s okay! I recognize my limitations! Then people will try to be like “nooooo you’d be a great mom, don’t be so hard on yourself!” 🙄 I think I know my life better than the people telling me to have kids (which is basically everyone in my parents’ generation).
@@sally8708 as someone who is asexual I feel your pain when people say my life is too short or incomplete unless I do the thing or have kids one way or another... makes me so uncomfortable
@@sally8708 thats the spirit! :) not everyone needs kiddos or has to do the thing just to complete their lives, as a teacher once told me you find happiness within yourself
There was a karen named Karen Turner that got arrested and had to go to court Look up “karen turner arrested”, not even joking Kind of reminded of it from this
The dog story. I totally agree that it worries me greatly cause if she's like that with a dog. Then there's no telling how she'll treat a baby let along a child.
@@dee_dee_place I don't have kids either (yet) but I do have a cat named Johnny Storm whom I post in four different facebook group (disapproving cats, this effin cat, my cool pet, and Jackson Galaxy My Cat From Hell fan group if you are wondering). And until I have human kids. Johnny is my fur child.
I'm a veterinarian and attended an animal forensics course once. The instructor told us a story about a veterinarian who was presented with a dog for euthanasia. The person bringing the dog was a concerned neighbor as the owner had claimed she had no money to pay a vet bill (the dog was laying in the garage crying and moaning). The vet suspected the dog's injuries were due to physical abuse, not an accident, and notified animal welfare. When animal welfare arrived at the home, the child that answered the door had bruises all over his body. Long story short- the child was put into protective custody. Folks do treat their kids and pets the same way.
Story 4: Birthdays do not grant immunity to any responsibility for you or your child's actions. Also, don't blame other people for your lack of responsibility, because that makes you even worse.
Hair salon story - when I was a kid my mom left me to sit in a chair too and so of course I got bored ... but I sat still and endured it because I was raised properly!!
Outings with my Mom were mostly to the free museums & the library, in NYC. Mom told me on our 1st visit, "you destroy something, I have to pay for it, & I will never take you anywhere else again". That did it, no more, no less.
Yep, my Mom took me to the beauty parlor many times when she was getting her hair cut. Yes, I got bored waiting for her, but if I had acted like that kid, my Mom would have warmed up the seat of my britches!
I work retail. I can’t stand parents who don’t take responsibility for their kids. If you don’t take responsibility for your kids you shouldn’t have had them to begin with. The excuse I hate the most is “Well s/he’s (age) that’s just how they act” I have a 2, almost 3 year old. I don’t tolerate him misbehaving in public.
my philosophy is that if the kid destroys a store, parents are legally ‘on the hook’ for financial reimbursement of renovating said store, end of discussion
Parents are kids' first teachers. I told my Dad that when I asked him for an explanation of why I couldn't do something. He would always say, "Because I Said So". I told him, that doesn't tell me anything, so don't expect me not to do it again... I need an explanation. So, he started to give me very short, to-the-point explanations. The first time I did something he had told me to do, I saw him smiling & shaking his head as to say, "she really was listening to me". Yeah, Parents, your kids listen to you AND they watch everything you do. So set the tone & the example. Funny story... My Sister & BIL wanted to go to a restaurant with their two oldest (who are 1 yr apart in age). My Sister set up 'the home restaurant' where she played the waitstaff & Daddy, Sissy, & Brother were the customers. She even made them menus & told them what was on them. They did a smashing job ordering their food & drinks, & waiting patiently for them to arrive at the table, & they spoke in conversational volume while waiting. My Sister & BIL never had to scold them in a restaurant because of that little run-through, at home.
Story 6: When I heard "Karen leaves kid locked inside a Hot Car and can't open it" I thought; Please someone break the window so we can get a hilarious reaction and so that Karen can literally pay for her mistake, and she got what she deserved
This particular Karen 🔥👹 should be locked in back of a hot police cruiser and see how it feels. Let her sweat it out. That child could have died from the heat. A car window can be replaced.
When the stranger asked "Do you know who I am?", I knew immediately what was going to happen. In that particular situation, I don't think the cops would press charges against anyone who smashed a window to get in.
Last story had me smiling as kids say the strangest things. Personally afterwards when in the car I would have had a talk with my son and told him like a man what a good job he did by noticing something wrong and saying something about it and he would have gotten a high 5 and an ice cream on the way home.
When my son was about that age, he would loudly yell “Jaywalker!” whenever someone was crossing the street where they weren’t supposed to, all the while pointing at the person. One time, the jaywalker heard my son yell, stopped in the middle of the street, turned around and proceeded to actually use the crosswalk, which was only 6 feet away 😁🤷♀️
Story 5: Considering the Karen's attitude, the baby might suffer a similar fate from negligence. Hopefully Animal Control did some sort of wake-up call
I know someone named Karen from work, she is absolutely nothing like the stereotype, and that's in spite of the fact that she works in a position where she could try power tripping if that was her thing. That said, the lady named Karen who went nuts about a parking spot is wonderfully ironic.
5-6 years old is way too old for that kind of behavior for the child in the salon story. Teaching a child boundaries and basic behavior isn't about control, it's about the child's safety and the safety of others. Seriously, basic boundaries and learning behavioral norms are actually GOOD for the child.
That's right. My Mom took me to the beauty parlor with her many times before I was that old, and if I had acted like that, the owner of the shop would have been the least of my worries!
It was a bit too much and she should have more boundaries. However I will say that it’s unreasonable to expect a 5 year old to sit for hours with nothing to do. They will get bored and look for stimulation no matter how well trained they are or how many boundaries they know. It will come out, as wondering around, spinning, whining, talking loudly to themselves etc…
Absolutely. I couldn't agree more. People who don't, at bare minimum, teach their kids boundaries, that the word no is a complete sentence or any sense of accountability that there are reprisals as well as consequences for their actions, end up raising narcissists or, much worse, criminals.

I would put up a sign that said. *ALL CHILDREN LEFT UNATTENDED WILL BE FED TO MY PEDOPHILE BROTHER AND HIS HUSBAND* NO ONE WOULD FUCK WITH ME BECAUSE IT'S NOT ONLY A THREAT. IT'S A PROMISE. BECAUSE IT'S THE *TRUTH*
When young kids learn new rules, those seem very important to them and they honestly do not understand why people don't follow the rules (until they learn of "exceptions" and drive you crazy with asking about those...)
The "how'd you guess my name?" story is sorta like "Rumplestiltskin". Only Karen didn't stamp her foot so hard that she ripped herself apart or the earth opened under her and she fell into Hell or whatever. But at least she went away.
That last story is one of those "And everyone clapped" stories. It's fake, that is why its from a deleted account. Someone karma hoarding. The reason its fake is because no 5 year old is going to be talking that way. Not unless the OP of the story is embellishing it even more
@@Ryanthusar My youngest niece was MENSA tested in 1st grade, she was 7. We would stop dead in our tracks over some of the things that came out of her mouth. My great-niece didn't talk until she was 2 but the minute she did, it was in complete sentences with proper use of the English language & vocabulary. I guess you haven't been around genius kids. They're mindblowing.
You know I've always thought that if a customer says they're never coming back just because they have to abide by a store's policy then that store isn't really losing a customer if anything it's doing the store a favor.
The baby in the car story was headed for a tragedy, and jail time for the mother, but ended up making me laugh.😱😂 Besides cowboy boots, that guy was also wearing a halo.😇🤗😂 Great ending!💪👍👏
I helped a lady that had her baby locked in a truck once, but the kid was sleeping & Ac was left on so we tried every other way to get in but the mom said 100% do whatever needed to get in especially if baby showed anything troubling, eventually had to bist a window but only at her insistence to do so she was such a nice lady
That guy is a hero, I don't know him, but that is the best response I have ever heard! I wish I could thank him for what he did, he saved that baby's life.
The first one reminded me of something that happened many (many!) years ago! We were at my MIL's for a get-together. I made my plate and my MIL asked me if I was going to make a plate for my husband. I said "Why? Did he break an arm or a leg since we got here?" She was initially taken aback-- but never asked me that again. And yes-- to this day we love each other!
Years ago I took my oldest son with me when I went to get my car checked for registration, the mechanic jumped in to drive it (brake test), but didn't do up his seat belt. My son turned to me & in his loudest voice went "Dad! The man hasn't done up his seat belt!". Loved it!
That last story🤣🤣 kids will call you out for sure!!! Lol, I'm totally going to start calling double parked "trouble parked" 😂 I love it! Cuz you're gonna be in trouble for doin it
When I was 4, my mom and I were in Wockenfuss (a chocolate/ card shop) store standing in line. My mom was off to the side looking at like cards or something when an older lady cut in front of my tiny self. I said excuse me about 3 times but she ignored me, so I tapped her arm. I told her politely that I was there first, she told me to piss off, before my mom said anything, I kicked her in the shin. My mom was so proud. 😉🥰
For the first story, OP was definitely in the right. I'm a very harsh person to those who give attitude or disrespect people I care for. In the circumstance where my dad would talk to my gf/fiancé/wife like that, I'd have simply stood up, walked over, leaned down and said "As stated, his right hand is injured and doesn't work correctly. If you'd like, I'll gladly break your hand right now and then we'll feed you ourselves. So what's it gonna be?" Would I actually break his hand? I'm notorious amongst my friends for not backing down if someone tries to bluff me. If he dared me to do it, I'd go for it. He'd break before I did. Thankfully, my dad isn't an entitled moron like OPs FIL. He's actually the best dad I could've asked for
For the 'serve the man's story. I wholeheartedly agree with op. My response would have been... No skin off my back that a grown ass adult is too childish to do the bare minimum of dishing up their own plate.
I would have said, "I don't see your hands injured or broken", & nothing more... just proceeded to ignore him. My Aunt & Uncle did something similar when my Dad (her Brother) died. They sat on the couch waiting for my Sister or me to serve them food. When my Uncle said, "where is our food", I said, "are your hands broken?" Before he got a chance to say anything further my Cousin told her Parents, "let's go, we'll stop at a restaurant".
The haircut Karen must've played a lot of Mega Man 6, where Dr. Wily just puts on a fake beard and shades and convinces the whole world that he's someone else.
No, at fifty years old she likely had seen pictures movie stars that used to wear sunglasses as a disguise. It worked for her as well as it worked for them.
Only when it works at the liquor store will it work anywhere else. If something is age-restricted, it's for a good reason, whether it's alcohol, R-rated movie, or simply so kids don't destroy the store while Mommy is getting her hair done. The staff is no one's babysitter, they already have a job that keeps them busy.
The salon my mom went to had two kid chairs, a table, bowl of cookies and a pile of comics, crayons and a coloring book. Lena was a nice lady, but we all knew to sit down, shut up, and mind our own buisness.
Salon "customer" should have had the police called at the first sign of destruction, as it would be obvious a Karen would refuse to take responsibility, and authorities might be able to help her Understand her liability...
I couldn't help it but when you were reading story 3 and the part with Karen's name actually being Karen happened I burst out laughing 🤣 I really needed that giggle so thank you DarkFluff 🙂
Story 6- I wonder if the lady planned this out? I don't see it out of possibility that a Karen would lock her child and keys in a car so that someone would have to break a window to save the child, and then she would turn on and sue whoever damaged her car. I imagine accidentally locking your keys in your car is not very common, she was explicit from the start about how she would sue anyone that damaged her car (even if only to save her child), she valued the car over her child, and she certainly didn't seem to care about her child possibly suffering severe harm or death. She definitely isn't a good person, so I see the possibility.
Y’all I like both the stores the one where the dude walks up with his giant cowboy boots And says do you know me and then kicks out Karen’s window and just walk away and the second one where the five-year-old rats out a Karen for cutting in line 😂😂😂😂😂
For the hair stylist one, I hope that OP called around to all the other hair stylists in the area and told them the two names and the phone number that Karen used to book the appointments, this way all the places can tell Karen to pound sand
That last story was absolute gold! Between the 8 year old calling out theKaren, to everyone laughing at her, to her admitting to a full coffee store that she illegally double parked. I swear, some people have bussiness being in public alone with how low their IQ is.
My Sister once locked her baby in the car. She had laid her down in the backseat to change her diaper & placed her purse on the floorboard. She thought she put her keys in her pocket but she had put them back into her purse. Somehow the door closed & locked. When she realized what happened, she screamed for someone to come watch my Niece so she could go into the store & call our Dad (who always carried every key that any of us ever owned) to come to unlock the door. By the time our Dad got there, my Sister was a hysterical mess, whiter than a sheet, & almost ready to pass out. My Sister was also pregnant with her second child at the time- yikes. This was in Florida & was before cell phones & the 'punch' devices which crack windows. Thankfully, it only took 10 minutes for our Dad to get there but my Niece was dripping wet with sweat. It doesn't take very long for a baby to overheat & die. I strongly recommend that if you have a baby or an animal, get one of those 'punch' devices. I got one because too many cars got lifted up & swept into canals during tropical storm season in Florida.
This is why if I have my dog with me, I always have the window at least partially opened if I need to run in a store quickly. If it's really hot, all 4 are down. I've had doors lock on me before, so I take no chances.
So, my anxiety makes me want to go to the same spots when I go somewhere, but when my pump is occupied, I just go to another because I am an adult and not a spoiled child.
I got bullied throughout high school. I'm extremely jumpy. If *anyone* grabs me - especially from behind - I will use my full strength to get free. All my people around me know that so it's usually not an issue.
Title story: at first I was imagining a Karen walking into a store and saying, "OK sweetie! It's your birthday so do whatever you want in this store today!"
2nd story about the gas pump. I manage gas station/convenience stores and it is amazing how often someone comes in asking us to call the police because someone "stole their pump"! All I can respond with is, "if they don't take the pump with them, there's nothing the police or me can do about it". It is a situation that I am powerless to do anything.
Thanks,so much for that wonderful 5-year old in that last story. I hope she felt really ashamed - but I’m guessing she didn’t. Many years ago my Mom and I were in line at the movie theater waiting to,pay,for,tickets (for those young people, we actually had to wait in long,lines at that time to get to the ticket seller)! Anyway, a lady came up to chat with the lady in front of us - the line began to move and she turns to us and said - “I’m sure these ladies won’t mind me stepping in line with you (her friend)”. I spoke up and said “yes, we do mind - go to the end of the line and wait like the rest of us. “. My mom looked looked mortified as I had never, ever stood up to anyone before that (and I was a timid adult at that time). No problems with me standing up for what is right after than. Hope I never run into a Karen!!!!!!!
I wish Ulta had the rule of no small children unless in a stroller or holder of some kind, used to get children COVERED in eyeshadow touching everything through the store and making stains on the floor. One mom kept continuously losing her child and I and the security guard kept having to escort him back. People are so unaware of themselves and their behaviors it’s ridiculous.
5yo Kid: Trouble Parked? Dad: Double Parked Kid was right the first time ;) I've found two lost doggos at separate times and both owners were grateful. Turns out both doggos just wanted to go for a walk, saw me, thought "he's a good hooman" and followed me for a couple miles. So I posted a picture on a local facebook group and they both ended up back home, safe and sound. Doggos and Cattos are family :)
Story 1: eff that. Man don't deserve the dino plates. Giving them to him is an insult to most five year olds. Besides. The dino plates /are/ the good plates. Tell the man he's got two perfectly good working hands and be done with it. 😂😂
How did that woman not know about the disgusting habit people have of calling rude entitled people that particular name? Every person named Karen I know is stressed by it daily.
In the second to last story, scenarios like this is why there is a law in the UK where you are legally allowed to smash someone's car windows if a dog or a child is locked inside it on a hot day without the windows being rolled down because of the danger to life. So the cowboy who kicked in the windshield absolutely did the right thing in this scenario. That mother had her priorities wrong.
The second that lady came back into her store, the mom should have called the cops or something to get payment for the damages. "I can't come get my dog, put it in your house." Yeah, no, I'm calling Animal Control, you can get your dog from them.
I have fond memories of my 4 yr old daughter calling out a 40 yr old for not washing his hands when he tried to walk out of the restroom in home depot. The guy turned around said "you're right" and washed his hands. 🤣
Someone did that to me once, but different circumstances. I work as an EMT and had to center-punch a car window to get an infant out. The woman had a brand new Lexus and called my supervisor SCREAMING that I broke her window. I tried to calm her down after we got the kid taken to the hospital and even tried recommending a good auto glass repair shop which I've used myself and they do an amazing job but, which unfortunately wasn't in the nicest neighborhood, to which this woman literally shreiks "I AM NOT GOING TO THE GHETTO AND PAYING $400 TO HAVE SOME N***** FIX MY WINDOW!!!!! My supervisor sided with me and this lady even tried complaining to the MAYOR of the town I worked in who basically told her "You left your kid in the car. Way I see it, the EMTs did their job"
Bwahaha. I'm amused you equate Karen's with boomers and gen Xers 🤣 Most of the entitled crappy Karen's I've met have been much younger. Like in their 30s. Way to be a generation-ist 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤣
@@dizzysdoings wow so you assume Boomers are Karens? That makes you a Karen then assuming you can judge personalities by age. Karens always make assumptions which is exactly what you are doing now.
The last story reminds me of the other day. I drop my kiddo off at a daycare every morning at about 5:30am. This place has ample parking and a nice visitor section only 4 spaces or so from the door that I like to park in. the spaces before this entire section are all meant to be reserved for disabled parking. Particularly the first spot for loading and unloading wheelchairs. Well each and every morning and afternoon Karen shows up with her three kids and parks in the first space. Now I'm not being presumptuous when I say she IS NOT disabled. Does not have any permits or a license plate or sticker or even one of the passes that hangs from the mirror. She is just lazy. And this drives me absolutely nuts and I mutter something under my breath every morning about her taking the space from the super nice office attendant that IS actually disabled and actually works there. On this morning the attendant and several others who needed the spaces legitimately actually got there before Karen. So Karen was forced to park in the spot I would normally be in. But I didn't mind at all. There is an entire parking lot after all so I chose another nearby spot. When my kid and I got out of the car Karen was 'unloading' her kids aka letting them scramble out of the car into the lot and paying little attention to the incoming cars. My daughter practically screamed "look mommy she parked in the right spot today! She didn't take miss C's special spot!" The woman's face got beat red and was muttering under her breath. The next day I was walking to the door and a little girl maybe 2 ran up to the door at the same time. Confused that she wasn't with an adult I turned around looking for a parent but to my shock there was Karen pulled up to the side of the building just letting these small kids run through the parking lot and sped away as her poor small kids attempted to try and buzz themselves into the secure daycare. I helped the kids inside and saw that they were taken in by a care provider checked my own kid in and left. By the afternoon I had heard from the other moms that the facility that Miss C and the facility director were outraged to find out she just left the kids without making sure they even got in safely let alone got to their teachers and asked Karen to never return and find alternative care elsewhere.
Story 4 - If I'd been the owner of that place, I'd have been tempted to do the woman's hair as she requested. I'd have given her a hairdo she'd never forget! Mind you, she'd have probably sued.... Story 7 - The little boy asked, "Will she go to jail for being double parked?" I'd have replied, "No, but the police might come and tow her car away, and then they'll make her pay a LOT of money to get it back!"
Oh that kid in the last story is like me! Or at least was like me, I was big on manners when young and when someone was impolite I pointed it out and tried to make them say "thank you" "sorry" "welcome" if needed lol
About the hair salon story, if there were customers already on the premises, why didn’t somebody said something?!? Common sense no?! I think it should be your duty, when you are witnessing something like that, to alert the personal on the floor!
We had a local pet store that I frequented with a sign that read “Children are a joy to behold, so please be holdin’ your’s”. Always liked that one.

And until I have human kids. Johnny is my fur child.
I'm a veterinarian and attended an animal forensics course once. The instructor told us a story about a veterinarian who was presented with a dog for euthanasia. The person bringing the dog was a concerned neighbor as the owner had claimed she had no money to pay a vet bill (the dog was laying in the garage crying and moaning). The vet suspected the dog's injuries were due to physical abuse, not an accident, and notified animal welfare. When animal welfare arrived at the home, the child that answered the door had bruises all over his body. Long story short- the child was put into protective custody. Folks do treat their kids and pets the same way.
Well, somwtimes after having a baby ones a bit crazy. Animal control could easily kill the dog. So i feel for both parties.
I love cowboy stories like that! One of my favorite authors says: "cowboys are meant to rais kids and animals" He lived up to that!
Story 4: Birthdays do not grant immunity to any responsibility for you or your child's actions. Also, don't blame other people for your lack of responsibility, because that makes you even worse.
Story 7: All I can say is; Pro Parenting + Hilarious Public embarrassment of a Karen = Me Smiling
Hair salon story - when I was a kid my mom left me to sit in a chair too and so of course I got bored ... but I sat still and endured it because I was raised properly!!
I just walk around or play with the toys I brought or simply sleep
I used to sit in an empty hairdryer chair and read the magazines. I’d read anything when I was a kid.
Outings with my Mom were mostly to the free museums & the library, in NYC. Mom told me on our 1st visit, "you destroy something, I have to pay for it, & I will never take you anywhere else again". That did it, no more, no less.
Yep, my Mom took me to the beauty parlor many times when she was getting her hair cut. Yes, I got bored waiting for her, but if I had acted like that kid, my Mom would have warmed up the seat of my britches!
@@pvanpelt1 It's a great way to educate yourself in reading comprehension. I did the same as a kid, even when I didn't fully understand the subject.
I work retail. I can’t stand parents who don’t take responsibility for their kids. If you don’t take responsibility for your kids you shouldn’t have had them to begin with.
The excuse I hate the most is “Well s/he’s (age) that’s just how they act” I have a 2, almost 3 year old. I don’t tolerate him misbehaving in public.
No the worst one is well they're autistic.
No I'M autistic and I do NOT act like THAT.
*YOU MIGHT AS WELL CALL ME AN R SLUR TO MY FACE*
my philosophy is that if the kid destroys a store, parents are legally ‘on the hook’ for financial reimbursement of renovating said store, end of discussion
a,w,wxx
Parents are kids' first teachers. I told my Dad that when I asked him for an explanation of why I couldn't do something. He would always say, "Because I Said So". I told him, that doesn't tell me anything, so don't expect me not to do it again... I need an explanation. So, he started to give me very short, to-the-point explanations. The first time I did something he had told me to do, I saw him smiling & shaking his head as to say, "she really was listening to me". Yeah, Parents, your kids listen to you AND they watch everything you do. So set the tone & the example.
Funny story... My Sister & BIL wanted to go to a restaurant with their two oldest (who are 1 yr apart in age). My Sister set up 'the home restaurant' where she played the waitstaff & Daddy, Sissy, & Brother were the customers. She even made them menus & told them what was on them. They did a smashing job ordering their food & drinks, & waiting patiently for them to arrive at the table, & they spoke in conversational volume while waiting. My Sister & BIL never had to scold them in a restaurant because of that little run-through, at home.
@@dee_dee_place Good parenting.
Story 1: no you’re not. Was there a nicer way to deal with it, certainly, but I think she did a fine job
Story 6: When I heard "Karen leaves kid locked inside a Hot Car and can't open it" I thought; Please someone break the window so we can get a hilarious reaction and so that Karen can literally pay for her mistake,
and she got what she deserved
This particular Karen 🔥👹 should be locked in back of a hot police cruiser and see how it feels. Let her sweat it out. That child could have died from the heat. A car window can be replaced.
When the stranger asked "Do you know who I am?", I knew immediately what was going to happen.
In that particular situation, I don't think the cops would press charges against anyone who smashed a window to get in.
@@condorboss3339 They would more than likely bust the parent for child endangerment.
I was half expecting the punchline to be he was off duty law enforcement.
Really lived the hero of this story.
Totally agree with you: bring out the children plates and utensils for the manchild.
Don’t forget the short table away from the adults
And don't forget the pink sippy-cup! 😆
@@lancerevell5979 Or rainbow one!
And remember to give him child portions to go with it.
Don't forget diapers for him also.
Last story had me smiling as kids say the strangest things. Personally afterwards when in the car I would have had a talk with my son and told him like a man what a good job he did by noticing something wrong and saying something about it and he would have gotten a high 5 and an ice cream on the way home.
It's the coming of the Anti-Karen
When my son was about that age, he would loudly yell “Jaywalker!” whenever someone was crossing the street where they weren’t supposed to, all the while pointing at the person. One time, the jaywalker heard my son yell, stopped in the middle of the street, turned around and proceeded to actually use the crosswalk, which was only 6 feet away 😁🤷♀️
I love how the kid asked can the woman go to jail for being double parked. Quite frankly she should but of course she won't.
I have known a few kids like this, I always encourage them to never let go of those values. XD
The five yearold story had me 🤣🤣 Love that kids have no filters and say it as they see it!
Story 5: Considering the Karen's attitude, the baby might suffer a similar fate from negligence. Hopefully Animal Control did some sort of wake-up call
Yeah. I do hope they take care of that animal(entitled mother).
I think you're a bit too optimistic. Karens never learn. Next time it will be her baby crawling on to OPs doorstep.
I know someone named Karen from work, she is absolutely nothing like the stereotype, and that's in spite of the fact that she works in a position where she could try power tripping if that was her thing. That said, the lady named Karen who went nuts about a parking spot is wonderfully ironic.
A five year old calling out a Karen, gives me a small glimmer of hope for the world.
The customers who say that they will never come back always come back.
The customers who are banned might come back to get arrested.
5-6 years old is way too old for that kind of behavior for the child in the salon story. Teaching a child boundaries and basic behavior isn't about control, it's about the child's safety and the safety of others. Seriously, basic boundaries and learning behavioral norms are actually GOOD for the child.
That's right. My Mom took me to the beauty parlor with her many times before I was that old, and if I had acted like that, the owner of the shop would have been the least of my worries!
@@citizenken7069 Very well put!
It was a bit too much and she should have more boundaries. However I will say that it’s unreasonable to expect a 5 year old to sit for hours with nothing to do. They will get bored and look for stimulation no matter how well trained they are or how many boundaries they know.
It will come out, as wondering around, spinning, whining, talking loudly to themselves etc…
I am surprised a 50 year old has such a young child. Also surprised she is such a poor mom
Absolutely. I couldn't agree more. People who don't, at bare minimum, teach their kids boundaries, that the word no is a complete sentence or any sense of accountability that there are reprisals as well as consequences for their actions, end up raising narcissists or, much worse, criminals.
Lol, be a good little Karen....."HOW DO YOU KNOW MY NAME". That cracked me up
5 year old kid on the last story is gonna be a great police officer some day.
Probably already is. Probably a midget who is working embedded undercover.
Probably is one of ‘the little people’ who busted the wicked bitch of the west.

Maybe now if Karen sees a kid in line she'll be afraid to cut!
I saw a sign once.
All children left unattended in our store will be fed sugary candy and given a free puppy to take home.
Lol. It did seem to work 🤣

@@larry01902 You sweet naive summer child. That's the show that BRED these demons.
In the last story,Awesome parents for teaching the 5 year old to stand up to a Karen
When young kids learn new rules, those seem very important to them and they honestly do not understand why people don't follow the rules (until they learn of "exceptions" and drive you crazy with asking about those...)
5 year olds are just wonderfull,
The "how'd you guess my name?" story is sorta like "Rumplestiltskin". Only Karen didn't stamp her foot so hard that she ripped herself apart or the earth opened under her and she fell into Hell or whatever. But at least she went away.
Last story: OP has my respect. Using your kid as a Karen detector is GENIUS!
That last story is one of those "And everyone clapped" stories. It's fake, that is why its from a deleted account. Someone karma hoarding.
The reason its fake is because no 5 year old is going to be talking that way. Not unless the OP of the story is embellishing it even more
*destroyer
@@Ryanthusar My youngest niece was MENSA tested in 1st grade, she was 7. We would stop dead in our tracks over some of the things that came out of her mouth. My great-niece didn't talk until she was 2 but the minute she did, it was in complete sentences with proper use of the English language & vocabulary. I guess you haven't been around genius kids. They're mindblowing.
You know I've always thought that if a customer says they're never coming back just because they have to abide by a store's policy then that store isn't really losing a customer if anything it's doing the store a favor.
The baby in the car story was headed for a tragedy, and jail time for the mother, but ended up making me laugh.😱😂 Besides cowboy boots, that guy was also wearing a halo.😇🤗😂 Great ending!💪👍👏
I helped a lady that had her baby locked in a truck once, but the kid was sleeping & Ac was left on so we tried every other way to get in but the mom said 100% do whatever needed to get in especially if baby showed anything troubling, eventually had to bist a window but only at her insistence to do so she was such a nice lady
He used a Karen move against a Karen "Do you know who I am?"
That guy is a hero, I don't know him, but that is the best response I have ever heard! I wish I could thank him for what he did, he saved that baby's life.
I'm thinking that Texan was an angel in disguise
The first one reminded me of something that happened many (many!) years ago! We were at my MIL's for a get-together. I made my plate and my MIL asked me if I was going to make a plate for my husband. I said "Why? Did he break an arm or a leg since we got here?" She was initially taken aback-- but never asked me that again. And yes-- to this day we love each other!
GOOD TEACHING BY THE DAD IN LAST STORY + CLEVER CUTE KID
TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF
WHAT HIS DAD TAUGHT HIM RECOGNIZING THE SITUATION.
Years ago I took my oldest son with me when I went to get my car checked for registration, the mechanic jumped in to drive it (brake test), but didn't do up his seat belt. My son turned to me & in his loudest voice went "Dad! The man hasn't done up his seat belt!". Loved it!
That last story🤣🤣 kids will call you out for sure!!! Lol, I'm totally going to start calling double parked "trouble parked" 😂 I love it! Cuz you're gonna be in trouble for doin it
Ooooh that woman who abandoned that dog really ticked me off. She shouldn’t be allowed to have a dog at all
$110 says she didn't even bother to go pay the fee and get the dog back.
@@myrixica4222 it’s a good bet. She probably demanded op be charged for negligence and probably went all Karen when she didn’t get her way

@@rhondaborders3452 right?!?! Like if she is gonna treat a dog like that, how bad will she get with her child?
Cowboys and five year olds: designated Karen Slayers 😂
I LOVED that last one! Kudos to the 5-year-old!!
When I was 4, my mom and I were in Wockenfuss (a chocolate/ card shop) store standing in line. My mom was off to the side looking at like cards or something when an older lady cut in front of my tiny self. I said excuse me about 3 times but she ignored me, so I tapped her arm. I told her politely that I was there first, she told me to piss off, before my mom said anything, I kicked her in the shin. My mom was so proud. 😉🥰
Story #4. OP’s mom must be one hell of a stylist.
For the first story, OP was definitely in the right. I'm a very harsh person to those who give attitude or disrespect people I care for. In the circumstance where my dad would talk to my gf/fiancé/wife like that, I'd have simply stood up, walked over, leaned down and said "As stated, his right hand is injured and doesn't work correctly. If you'd like, I'll gladly break your hand right now and then we'll feed you ourselves. So what's it gonna be?" Would I actually break his hand? I'm notorious amongst my friends for not backing down if someone tries to bluff me. If he dared me to do it, I'd go for it. He'd break before I did. Thankfully, my dad isn't an entitled moron like OPs FIL. He's actually the best dad I could've asked for
For the 'serve the man's story.
I wholeheartedly agree with op.
My response would have been...
No skin off my back that a grown ass adult is too childish to do the bare minimum of dishing up their own plate.
I would have said, "I don't see your hands injured or broken", & nothing more... just proceeded to ignore him.
My Aunt & Uncle did something similar when my Dad (her Brother) died. They sat on the couch waiting for my Sister or me to serve them food. When my Uncle said, "where is our food", I said, "are your hands broken?" Before he got a chance to say anything further my Cousin told her Parents, "let's go, we'll stop at a restaurant".
Thats church.
The last story is one of the best ones I've heard in a long time---parenting done right!
The haircut Karen must've played a lot of Mega Man 6, where Dr. Wily just puts on a fake beard and shades and convinces the whole world that he's someone else.
No, at fifty years old she likely had seen pictures movie stars that used to wear sunglasses as a disguise. It worked for her as well as it worked for them.
that 5 year old is one great human
The last story - we all need to be as honest as the 5 year old!
Story 4: For those who don't go to salons, that's a tale as old as time. 'serve me NOW, it's my birthday!'
Only when it works at the liquor store will it work anywhere else. If something is age-restricted, it's for a good reason, whether it's alcohol, R-rated movie, or simply so kids don't destroy the store while Mommy is getting her hair done. The staff is no one's babysitter, they already have a job that keeps them busy.
The salon my mom went to had two kid chairs, a table, bowl of cookies and a pile of comics, crayons and a coloring book. Lena was a nice lady, but we all knew to sit down, shut up, and mind our own buisness.
Is she going to jail?
Unfortunately, no! But I'm sure the clock is ticking!
Salon "customer" should have had the police called at the first sign of destruction, as it would be obvious a Karen would refuse to take responsibility, and authorities might be able to help her Understand her liability...
Gotta love that kid in the last one. Kudos to Dad for teaching him.
Dinner story: FIL had no right making demands in someone else's home.
I couldn't help it but when you were reading story 3 and the part with Karen's name actually being Karen happened I burst out laughing 🤣 I really needed that giggle so thank you DarkFluff 🙂
Story 6- I wonder if the lady planned this out? I don't see it out of possibility that a Karen would lock her child and keys in a car so that someone would have to break a window to save the child, and then she would turn on and sue whoever damaged her car. I imagine accidentally locking your keys in your car is not very common, she was explicit from the start about how she would sue anyone that damaged her car (even if only to save her child), she valued the car over her child, and she certainly didn't seem to care about her child possibly suffering severe harm or death. She definitely isn't a good person, so I see the possibility.
Now she would have been arrested for child neglect and endangerment if her child had died from the heat.
Y’all I like both the stores the one where the dude walks up with his giant cowboy boots And says do you know me and then kicks out Karen’s window and just walk away and the second one where the five-year-old rats out a Karen for cutting in line 😂😂😂😂😂
For the hair stylist one, I hope that OP called around to all the other hair stylists in the area and told them the two names and the phone number that Karen used to book the appointments, this way all the places can tell Karen to pound sand
It's not revenge, it's professional courtesy!
Story 6: I'm going to need a short comic depicting these events because that is hilarious.
16:37 *“Do you know who I am?”* 🤣 *I LOVE THAT!!!*
*You don't? Good, I can get away with it*
If that happens to anyone at a gas station….. just point and laugh … and wash ALL YOUR WINDOWS. LOL
That last story was absolute gold! Between the 8 year old calling out theKaren, to everyone laughing at her, to her admitting to a full coffee store that she illegally double parked. I swear, some people have bussiness being in public alone with how low their IQ is.
My Sister once locked her baby in the car. She had laid her down in the backseat to change her diaper & placed her purse on the floorboard. She thought she put her keys in her pocket but she had put them back into her purse. Somehow the door closed & locked. When she realized what happened, she screamed for someone to come watch my Niece so she could go into the store & call our Dad (who always carried every key that any of us ever owned) to come to unlock the door. By the time our Dad got there, my Sister was a hysterical mess, whiter than a sheet, & almost ready to pass out. My Sister was also pregnant with her second child at the time- yikes. This was in Florida & was before cell phones & the 'punch' devices which crack windows. Thankfully, it only took 10 minutes for our Dad to get there but my Niece was dripping wet with sweat. It doesn't take very long for a baby to overheat & die. I strongly recommend that if you have a baby or an animal, get one of those 'punch' devices. I got one because too many cars got lifted up & swept into canals during tropical storm season in Florida.
This is why if I have my dog with me, I always have the window at least partially opened if I need to run in a store quickly. If it's really hot, all 4 are down.
I've had doors lock on me before, so I take no chances.
I work with 5 year olds for a living. They don't mess around when it comes to cutting the line!
So, my anxiety makes me want to go to the same spots when I go somewhere, but when my pump is occupied, I just go to another because I am an adult and not a spoiled child.
Karen grabs my collar and pulls me back.... she gets back-handed to the ground! I do not tolerate assault.
I got bullied throughout high school. I'm extremely jumpy. If *anyone* grabs me - especially from behind - I will use my full strength to get free. All my people around me know that so it's usually not an issue.
yeah
if some karen did that with me, they would require either an Ambulance or the Coroner’s Van, because they’re gonna get hurt badly
That 5yr old is well trained lol
Title story: at first I was imagining a Karen walking into a store and saying, "OK sweetie! It's your birthday so do whatever you want in this store today!"
2nd story about the gas pump. I manage gas station/convenience stores and it is amazing how often someone comes in asking us to call the police because someone "stole their pump"! All I can respond with is, "if they don't take the pump with them, there's nothing the police or me can do about it". It is a situation that I am powerless to do anything.
I'd be like "Stolen? Nope. Pump's still there"
Karen is my name story -
I can vouch that there are nice Karens and Kens out there - my childhood babysitters.
For once the line “Do you know who I am?” actually works!
Yeah ,and in a good way to ! 😂
Thanks,so much for that wonderful 5-year old in that last story. I hope she felt really ashamed - but I’m guessing she didn’t. Many years ago my Mom and I were in line at the movie theater waiting to,pay,for,tickets (for those young people, we actually had to wait in long,lines at that time to get to the ticket seller)! Anyway, a lady came up to chat with the lady in front of us - the line began to move and she turns to us and said - “I’m sure these ladies won’t mind me stepping in line with you (her friend)”. I spoke up and said “yes, we do mind - go to the end of the line and wait like the rest of us. “. My mom looked looked mortified as I had never, ever stood up to anyone before that (and I was a timid adult at that time). No problems with me standing up for what is right after than. Hope I never run into a Karen!!!!!!!
I wish Ulta had the rule of no small children unless in a stroller or holder of some kind, used to get children COVERED in eyeshadow touching everything through the store and making stains on the floor. One mom kept continuously losing her child and I and the security guard kept having to escort him back. People are so unaware of themselves and their behaviors it’s ridiculous.
5yo Kid: Trouble Parked?
Dad: Double Parked
Kid was right the first time ;)
I've found two lost doggos at separate times and both owners were grateful. Turns out both doggos just wanted to go for a walk, saw me, thought "he's a good hooman" and followed me for a couple miles. So I posted a picture on a local facebook group and they both ended up back home, safe and sound. Doggos and Cattos are family :)
Story 1: eff that. Man don't deserve the dino plates. Giving them to him is an insult to most five year olds. Besides. The dino plates /are/ the good plates. Tell the man he's got two perfectly good working hands and be done with it. 😂😂
How did that woman not know about the disgusting habit people have of calling rude entitled people that particular name? Every person named Karen I know is stressed by it daily.
Gas lady- maybe it was her “lucky” spot like people who have their “lucky” seats at Bingo!
A lot of people have OCD too; but, I'm guessing she just wanted closer to the entry door.
In the second to last story, scenarios like this is why there is a law in the UK where you are legally allowed to smash someone's car windows if a dog or a child is locked inside it on a hot day without the windows being rolled down because of the danger to life. So the cowboy who kicked in the windshield absolutely did the right thing in this scenario. That mother had her priorities wrong.
Her precious car was her priority not her child.👹😳⚡🙉👻👺💀😈🤮👿
The second that lady came back into her store, the mom should have called the cops or something to get payment for the damages.
"I can't come get my dog, put it in your house."
Yeah, no, I'm calling Animal Control, you can get your dog from them.
Story 3:🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The Karen's name actually is Karen! Priceless!
Loved that Rumpelstiltskin moment with Karen. Using her name broke the magic!
She should have called the police and had her paid for all the damages
Love that last story the dad is doing a good job raising his son right
I have fond memories of my 4 yr old daughter calling out a 40 yr old for not washing his hands when he tried to walk out of the restroom in home depot. The guy turned around said "you're right" and washed his hands. 🤣
Someone did that to me once, but different circumstances. I work as an EMT and had to center-punch a car window to get an infant out. The woman had a brand new Lexus and called my supervisor SCREAMING that I broke her window. I tried to calm her down after we got the kid taken to the hospital and even tried recommending a good auto glass repair shop which I've used myself and they do an amazing job but, which unfortunately wasn't in the nicest neighborhood, to which this woman literally shreiks "I AM NOT GOING TO THE GHETTO AND PAYING $400 TO HAVE SOME N***** FIX MY WINDOW!!!!! My supervisor sided with me and this lady even tried complaining to the MAYOR of the town I worked in who basically told her "You left your kid in the car. Way I see it, the EMTs did their job"
lol, the "Do you know who I am?" guy is the best! That's genius

Karen is a very common name for younger Boomers and older Xers, so the chances of a Karen being named Karen are pretty decent.
Bwahaha. I'm amused you equate Karen's with boomers and gen Xers 🤣

The last story reminds me of the other day. I drop my kiddo off at a daycare every morning at about 5:30am. This place has ample parking and a nice visitor section only 4 spaces or so from the door that I like to park in. the spaces before this entire section are all meant to be reserved for disabled parking. Particularly the first spot for loading and unloading wheelchairs. Well each and every morning and afternoon Karen shows up with her three kids and parks in the first space. Now I'm not being presumptuous when I say she IS NOT disabled. Does not have any permits or a license plate or sticker or even one of the passes that hangs from the mirror. She is just lazy. And this drives me absolutely nuts and I mutter something under my breath every morning about her taking the space from the super nice office attendant that IS actually disabled and actually works there. On this morning the attendant and several others who needed the spaces legitimately actually got there before Karen. So Karen was forced to park in the spot I would normally be in. But I didn't mind at all. There is an entire parking lot after all so I chose another nearby spot. When my kid and I got out of the car Karen was 'unloading' her kids aka letting them scramble out of the car into the lot and paying little attention to the incoming cars. My daughter practically screamed "look mommy she parked in the right spot today! She didn't take miss C's special spot!" The woman's face got beat red and was muttering under her breath. The next day I was walking to the door and a little girl maybe 2 ran up to the door at the same time. Confused that she wasn't with an adult I turned around looking for a parent but to my shock there was Karen pulled up to the side of the building just letting these small kids run through the parking lot and sped away as her poor small kids attempted to try and buzz themselves into the secure daycare. I helped the kids inside and saw that they were taken in by a care provider checked my own kid in and left. By the afternoon I had heard from the other moms that the facility that Miss C and the facility director were outraged to find out she just left the kids without making sure they even got in safely let alone got to their teachers and asked Karen to never return and find alternative care elsewhere.
Stylist hopefully they called all other stylists and gave them her description, and they do not want her business.
Karen had a Clark Kent level of disguise skills.
Story 4 - If I'd been the owner of that place, I'd have been tempted to do the woman's hair as she requested. I'd have given her a hairdo she'd never forget! Mind you, she'd have probably sued....
Story 7 - The little boy asked, "Will she go to jail for being double parked?" I'd have replied, "No, but the police might come and tow her car away, and then they'll make her pay a LOT of money to get it back!"
Actually under the 2015 Good Samaritan law you are allowed to break a car window to save a child....but not a pet.
Anytime Ive had my hair dyed by a hairdresser, I have to take my glasses off. Obviously Karen didnt think through her disguise. Duh!
oh that last one... i hope that little one got a reward for that. that is awesome!
Oh that kid in the last story is like me! Or at least was like me, I was big on manners when young and when someone was impolite I pointed it out and tried to make them say "thank you" "sorry" "welcome" if needed lol
About the hair salon story, if there were customers already on the premises, why didn’t somebody said something?!? Common sense no?! I think it should be your duty, when you are witnessing something like that, to alert the personal on the floor!
If she's willing of not taking care of the dog what's stopping her from doing the same thing when she have kids.
