As human beings, we should feel entitled to a few things: fresh air, sustenance, a roof over our heads, freedom, the right to work and earn an education. Some people, however, have gotten a little too comfortable demanding things that they believe the world owes them. And lucky for us, other, more sane individuals, are happy to catalog their behavior and share it online.
Below, you’ll find photos and screenshots of some of the worst examples of entitlement from various subreddits dedicated to calling out old people, "beggars," moms and dads, and even some “entitled idiots.” Clearly, entitlement comes in all shapes and sizes, so enjoy reading through these frustrating posts, and be sure to upvote the ones you can’t believe are real!

Karen’s Sense Of Entitlement Knows No Bounds
So feeding the child and keeping him happy is other people's responsibility??
Entitled Parent
This smart kiddo will never see that money again. And this is a painful lesson to learn. When others find out you have and they want, especially if they’re family, they’ll take. And her mom did this to give to a friend? Kiddo needs to pocket as much cash as she can and once she’s 18, get her own account. And consider moving asap. Or get a rental agreement. Money between families is almost always ugly.
Keep Your Kids Inside Or Ill Call The Cops (Found On Facebook)
You should never be scared to go after what you want in life. Hard work and dedication can certainly go a long way. But when it comes to steamrolling others, demanding things you don’t deserve and simply being a jerk, well, there are plenty of subreddits that will be happy to put you in your place. One of which is Entitled Idiots, which describes itself simply as “a place to share when someone is being an entitled idiot.”
And if you’re looking for even more content putting entitled people on blast, feel free to check out Entitled Beggars. “Ever known that really overly-entitled person you met who constantly begs for free things and does nothing in return?” the group’s moderators ask. “This is the place to share those stories!” These groups feature screenshots, anecdotes and photos that might make your blood boil. But they serve a common goal: teaching the world to stop being so entitled!

If you’re a parent, perhaps you’ve come across your fair share of entitled moms and dads along the way who make you want to rip your hair out. Well, if you need a place to vent, why not check out Daddy Cringe on Reddit? This group, which has amassed nearly 15k members (or “cringers” as they call them) invites users to share a variety of stories featuring entitled individuals to be read aloud on their YouTube channel. And if you’re looking for even more stories of entitled moms and dads, have no fear. The Insane Parent Stories subreddit is here!
And last, but not least, we’ve also featured some images on this list from the lovely Entitled Old People subreddit. This group has nothing against your lovely elderly parents or your 80-year-old neighbor who occasionally brings you freshly baked cookies. But it doesn’t hesitate to call out entitled individuals who seem downright delusional. Whether you’re in kindergarten or a senior citizens home, there’s no excuse for acting like everyone owes you something.

For most of us, demanding free photos for your wedding or a complimentary meal just because you’re an influencer sounds absurd. But somehow, every now and then, someone makes it to adulthood without being put in their place enough and voila! They become an entitled adult. According to BetterHelp, a sense of entitlement “is a personality trait that is based on a person’s belief that they deserve privileges or recognition for things that they did not earn.” And there are several potential causes for this mindset. Sometimes, these individuals were given anything and everything they wanted as children without ever facing obstacles or being told no. Other times, personality disorders, such as narcissism or antisocial personality disorder may be contributing factors.

Entitlement can also crop up as an attempt to overcompensate for past wrongs, BetterHelp explains. For example, if someone has been mistreated, abused, or grew up deprived of love and affection, they might begin to demand what they grew up lacking from others. This entitlement is rooted in victimhood and can cause major issues in both personal and professional relationships. When entitlement stems from a personality disorder, the individual might simply perceive themself as superior to others or view themself as above the rules in some ways. “I don’t have to wait in line because I have places to be!”

There’s no question that navigating relationships with entitled individuals can be frustrating. In fact, it can actually lower our wellbeing. But according to research, it’s also difficult to be an entitled individual. “Entitled people have high expectations that often go unmet, which can lead to disappointment and psychological distress,” Emily Zitek at SPSP writes. “Entitled individuals are also more likely to have difficulty maintaining positive relationships with other people, and they often believe they are being treated unfairly.”

It's My Fault That They Didn't Like What They Saw
There's a lot of people on BP who complain about posts and other peoples' comments. I advise taking Red's advice: don't complain, YOU chose to look at it/read it XD Edit for clarification: I don't mean debating or disagreeing with the post or comment in an intellectual manner of debate, I mean when people read something they don't like or don't agree with and immediately attack the poster with racist, bigoted, or just downright mean stuff/threats/etc XD By all means debate! But don't comment something like "we don't care" like Blue did above XD

The good news, when it comes to entitled individuals, is that they’re not all doomed to hold that mindset forever. It probably won’t be easy to adopt a healthier outlook on life, but according to BetterHelp, it’s possible to overcome a sense of entitlement. One strategy that may help is to stop comparing themselves to others. “Someone with a sense of entitlement may benefit from remembering that they don’t need to compete with others and that they can accomplish their own goals and dreams,” the experts explain.

Hey pandas! If I’m going to risk MY mental health reading posts like THESE then you better give me the EXACT lyrics to Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. YOU cater to ME alright.

Load More Replies...How about this, b***h? Stay TF home and make your own damn food. Quit bothering hardworking people with your petty b******t.
You WILL walk that attitude out my door. You WILL not be getting fed today. This is MY DOMAIN! You are a GUEST in MY HOUSE and your $10 does NOT make you MY MASTER. I WILL be better off without you in here. You WILL go buy some sad, cold POP-TARTS from the corner store for LUNCH. Bye-bye now.
Being a former Subway worker, sure, we'll change our gloves and wash our hands. It's just going to take 5-10minutes for the new pair of gloves to actually go on our hands
I did have a friend who is Muslim request the worker get new gloves because the previous customer got a ham sandwich. But he asked nicely and explained why.
Load More Replies...“I’m risking my health to come here” sorry but that’s on you buddy that’s not the employee’s fault
This seems like it was written by a burnt fast food employee, right? Not the actual poophead customer.
My feelings too, although I have seen some super-entitled customers acting very similar to the post...
Load More Replies...I'm guessing this person refused to take even the slightest PRECAUTIONS during Covid.
I stupidly washed my hands around a quarter of that at the start of COVID and in a week my hands were so chapped that whatever I did to fix it just made it hurt. Lesson learned.
Coming up... one big plate of "Go F**k Yourself" traditionally served ice cold!
I have spit in so many rude a*s customers food - or - thrown their meat on the floor then put it back on their plate to deliver to them ~> you f**k with ppl who handle your food then you are going to have quadruplet the amount of germs on your food.
*sings* One lonely germ.. Ohhhhh one lonely germ... That's all it takes too oooo.. Completely break youuuu....
That's when I want to be a manager at that place and simply inform him we won't be serving him at all and let him fume.
Great eyesight. Grab her food with no gloves. Please I'm testing her eyesight.
What a d**k… Also fyi you can’t see germs and the sense of entitlement
Be fair, OP held their breath throughout their time in the store, to avoid spreading germs , and had a full decontamination session before entering ... ;-)
This person can see germs. Is that a gift or a handicap? Germs are everywhere. How do they tell the bad germs from the less-dangerous ones? Do the bad ones carry little warning labels?
I read this in a Mertal Edmonds voice, not any male voice. And I bet the brat isn't even a supervisor. Probably just a customer.
I bet they wouldn't complain about the fact Michelin star chefs aren't wearing gloves to prepare their food.
I’m always dead set against the gun policies in America, then I read something like this and wonder!
When the person walks in that wrote it the workers should go “OH NO WE GOT A CODE 57 OR A MAJOR KAREN”
This literally sounds like something I would say sarcastically while mocking an entitled family member. How can anyone seriously say this? “ YOU work for ME. You will obey my orders as I demand or you will just cease to exist at this point. I tell you what to do and how to do it”. … speechless
Wait till this c**k finds out that most of the human body isnt human cells, but germs and bacteria that co-exist with us and enble us to live.
Don't use kitchen sanitizer anywhere you can't wait for it to air dry at least 20mins. It can make food toxic. When they sanitize a cutting board and then immediately chop vegetables on it, lots of people will get sick.
Soooo this person isn't crazy at all. Just has super, germ spotting vision and the ability to make people cease to exist completely (some new assassination technique?) That's all it is.
I agree that changing gloves is hygienic but good grief...the rest of that is nuts.
I would touch the new plastic glove and say "oops, gotta wash my hands I just touched something". Bam, infinite combo gg next map
I wonder if the OP knows the health department doesn't care how filthy and pest infested a restaurant is, only that no one will get sick.
I wish my super powers included "Germ Vision" that would make me incredibly strong or drive me totally Batshit crazy !
Wow…it’s gonna take a long time and tons of money to stand over every employee timing the hand washing, inspecting every inch of the restaurant using swabs, slides, a gram stainer, and a microscope to rule out germs- not to mention the equipment needed for virus detection. Then there is the vapor ray gun to erase any out of line employees. May I suggest eating in tonight?
Hope this person likes boogers. They're gonna be eating a lot of them.
If you really can see germs with your bare eyes, here's my offer to a minimum paid employment as a cleaner. You WILL obey MY orders, since I AM paying YOU. You WILL wash hands thoroughly and change gloves after EVERY switch of ordered part to clean. If I catch you disobeying you will start over. FYI Overtime payment ist out of question & I expect nothing less than perfection.
the only germ they have in the restaurant is u,the germ that they need to get rid of
The phrase used to be “you got another THINK coming” (“thing” makes no sense at all), but because every damned chimpanzee can either read nor logic, we’re stuck with the meaningless and stupid “You’ve got another thing coming.” (From Amazon, I guess.) Lots and LOTS of good and useful English phrases have been ruined by morons, and the rest of us are having to thrash around for new ways to say things so we don’t look like like one of the chimps. Thanks a lot, chimps. 🤬

It can also be useful for entitled individuals to make a list of goals they want to accomplish, as well as what they’re willing to do to reach those goals. This might remind them to be realistic about what they can achieve and understand that effort has to be put in to make progress. It’s also crucial to learn how to handle setbacks, when trying to overcome a sense of entitlement. “The feeling they may get from accomplishing a goal on their own is likely going to be much greater than receiving something without investing any significant effort,” the BetterHelp team notes. And as hard as it may be for them, it’s helpful for entitled individuals to see situations from another person’s point of view, as they likely haven’t considered it on their own.

Living in the present can also be a helpful tactic when combating entitlement. They have to let go of negative situations from the past and keep an open mind. And of course, they must be reminded to treat others with respect, compassion and gratitude, the BetterHelp team notes. “If they are genuinely kind to others and commit to acts of selflessness without expecting a favor in return, others may feel a desire to return the same goodness to them.”

Well, even though boomers did have it a lot easier—-and I am not at all defending the s****y boomer attitude, no way. I’m a late boomer, 1960, and totally missed the boomer gravy train, so I’m more like GenX, tbh—--most of them still had to work for what they have. They had to put up with a lot of s**t too; long work days, a*****e bosses, unchecked and actually condoned (by management and the establishment, ffs) harassment if they’re women and POC, companies that stole their lives and made them strangers in their own families, burned them out and threw them away right before their 401Ks vested or sold thei company and the new one drained the pension fund they contributed to their whole working life then took the money and closed the company down, all while management’s often repeated retaliatory threats of withholding of well-deserved raises, bonuses, and promotions, as well as being laid off, fired, and blacklisted hung over them if they didn’t toe the line and just put up with being underpaid and treated like s**t, plus all the other typical Draconian, cruel, abusive, predatory, dog eat dog tactics used in unbridled and unregulated capitalist business practices—-that we’re only now finally fighting against. Yeah, they may have had advantages that don’t exist anymore, but that doesn’t mean they had it all that easy.
