Entitled people are annoying and we can't escape them, however, they also tend to provide us with endless hilarious content.

You could be casually walking your dog or patiently waiting in line for some coffee when, out of nowhere, a random stranger might approach you and start demanding that you prove you are allowed to do something or yell at you for doing it wrong. Despite their passion for nitpicking others, these people are also somehow the ones who confidently wear a wedding dress to a wedding as mere guests.

Getting to know all the possible situations in which you could accidentally interact with a 'Karen' might get you prepared to stand your ground more confidently and record it while you are at it because usually, those situations turn into comedy gold.

So you judge people by their looks and not actions, and then try to cause issues for them because of those looks. Sorry, OP, you're a pizza ship.

Dealing with entitled customers is the worst nightmare that service workers constantly face. However, if you don’t get in contact with random people a lot, you might be lucky by only being acquainted with them through other people’s experiences. Their unrealistic expectations, inability to accept ‘no’ as an answer, and high demand for attention are typical entitled person behavior.

What you need to do is go down to your local church, ask the priest for a reverse emancipation form, check the "child" box (it's between the forced labor box and the internment box). Get the form notarized by a religious leader, political leader and the local sheriff. Make 3 copies, have each one signed by a family member then shove them up your butt.

To All The Karens Out There

nanotrone Report

To work around such people, you will need to become more aware of your limits so you will immediately notice when your boundaries are being crossed. To set them, though, you consistently have to remind them of it. Another skill is assertiveness. It is important to be able to stand your ground when facing difficult people. However, it's better not to lose your cool and to stay as calm and polite as possible.

Most importantly, to maintain your mental health, just don’t take anything these people say or do personally. Our actions and perceptions reflect our mindset, and that is the same for entitled people. They are projecting their twisted sense of entitlement onto other people, which is not a commentary on your worth.

Everytime i see this I laugh. Most cultures love to see people try the clothes, hairstyles, foods that they have. It's only the really weird that hate it. Also if we're not allowed to try anything and just look or be like our 'culture; is, isn't that a form of segregation???

However, not everything revolves around those people and solving their behavioral problems, so just before going in contact, try to evaluate if the energy you will invest is worth it. Such people can be draining and harmful because they use psychological violence, and your mental health is more important than these people’s entitlement will ever be.

It's in WI. It is legal for 18+ year Olds to drink if they are with a parent, spouse or legal guardian. So, she actually has a valid point.

Asumming this happened in the US, Is she completely unaware of the laws of age limits that apllies there? That bartender was not being rude, he was just enforcing the law and her attempt at breaking it. You cannot serve alcohol to anyone below the age of 21 period. And then it does not matter if she is only a little under 21. It is his liquer license that is at stake, if he gets busted, and it would be quite a gamble on his bit to allow it, as if it gets taken, a big part of his business would vanish along with it. It is simply not a risk worth taking on his part and would definitely be way more than $150.

I don't think the result would be a jail sentence, but they would probably take his liquir license, and as most people find a bar without alcohold rahter dull, his business would probably go under if that happened.

This may be a local culture thing. In Eau Claire (and the rest of Wisconsin) a minor can drink if there is a legal guardian of age present. All the way down to age 14 in some places of the state. They were just used to letting the underage person join in.

Some "manager" at the pay station came to literally yell at me when my college aged daughter, home on holiday break & shopping with me - not like I expected she "never touched alcohol"(& 1mo from 21). I drank all but @TBSP of my wine (after giving my cc to pay; waiting on the staff), when she laughingly picked up my glass saying, "Wine is wisdom", then acted like she "chugged" the last TBSP. I laughed hysterically while he was yelling at me, then asked him where he was when 3 toddlers at the next table were throwing food at the other diners. Foff
