Something my parents instilled in me from a young age is the importance of good manners. Please, thank you, yes ma’am, no sir and a polite, pleasant attitude can get you a long way. At the same time, acting like a spoiled brat can set you back and, perhaps, even get you called out online.
We took a trip to this subreddit that’s dedicated to putting entitled individuals on blast and gathered some of their best posts below. From selfish people making demands on social media to drivers taking up as many parking spots as they like, enjoy scrolling through these examples of atrocious entitlement, and be sure to upvote the pics that make your blood boil!

This Karen Got Owned By My Boss

Nobody wants to be seen as a pushover, and if you genuinely are entitled to something, you shouldn’t be afraid to say so. Boss refuses to accept your time-off requests even though you’ve acquired dozens of days off? Speak up. Food courier forgot half of the meal you paid for at the restaurant? You deserve to get your money back. But it’s important that we all understand what we’re actually entitled to versus what our delusions tell us we deserve.
The Entitled “Batch” subreddit (who’s name we’ve had to censor) is all about calling out individuals who believe they are owed much more than they really are. It describes itself as a place “to post and read about experiences with people who think they can always get their own way and are better than everyone,” and it’s become quite popular. With over 343k members, this online community is the perfect place to remind yourself that not everyone has great manners.
EK Breaks Store Policy And Is Upset With Outcome
Bro..?
Someone Is Hella Over It!
We’ve all encountered entitled behavior before, whether it’s a Karen demanding that a restaurant seat her party before others even though she doesn’t have a reservation or a couple expecting to get free wedding photos from a professional photographer because they went to high school together. But most of us know that this behavior is totally inappropriate, so where does it come from?
To gain more insight on this topic for a previous Bored Panda piece, we got in touch with Licensed Creative Arts Therapist and Board Certified Music Therapist Al Hoberman. Al was kind enough to have a chat with us and explain how exactly people justify their entitled behavior.

“Entitlement can come across as overconfidence, but turned on its head, we can see it as an expression of some kind of need,” Al explained. “Maybe it’s wanting to feel special, to be cared and provided for, or to know that you’ll be there for them. Wanting a lot is a sign that someone feels that they’re lacking a lot, whether they’re fully aware of it or not.”

She Forgave Herself For Cheating
I agree, they're going to miss their dad, biology or no. But I can totally understand not wanting anything to do with Ms "I forgave myself for cheating"
Load More Replies...So, your son ''failed the DNA test" is a very novel way of saying "I cheated and tried to fob off the consequences on someone else."
Your son didn’t fail the DNA test, you failed in the relationship so you get to suffer the consequences. Maybe look for the actual dad to support him.
"I already forgave myself, so why are you being so mean!?" I'm honestly a little impressed.
I reacted to that too. "I forgave myself so you should just drop this, it's all good". Like wtf?
Load More Replies...You should have to reimburse him for the child support or go to jail for committing fraud.
While in theory I agree entirely - what about the child? The man he calls Dad has just discovered he isn't the father, and his primary parent has either just been bankrupted or jailed. She deserves to pay for her deception and fraud, the kid does not.
Load More Replies..."I forgave myself" --Yourself isn't the one you should be asking for forgiveness.
The child suffers here by losing someone they thought was their father. This is so cruel for the child, someone they loved is gone away 😔 As the none father he doesn't have to do anything but it's a really rotten situation as surely he must have loved his child 😔
"I forgave my self for cheating." What did she do? Run back and forth between the two parts of the confessional booth?
Has HE forgiven you for cheating? How to fix it? Go to the kids biological father and see if he's interested. You're lucky if the "babydaddy" don't sue you for all child support until now.
Does she have to pay back the child support he paid all of those years?
She "Ghosted" Her "son" when She tried to make Anyone/Everyone but Herself responsible. I hope that Someone who "Actually Cares" is in the childs life. She'll be lucky if She's not Sued for fraud and repayment of illegally received funds. It's too bad that an Innocent Child will be victimized by for at least 18 years.
“My son failed”? She forgave herself for cheating, but apparently forgot to tell “dad.”
" HE'S being petty?? " - here's a thought - grow up!! You have a 8 yr old CHILD without a dad in his life any more, AND you have a dad without a son, that's BOTH lives YOU have destroyed because you couldn't keep your Tesco legs shut....
What's worse, is that the father can still be on the hook for support payments even if DNA proves he is not the biological father, especially if the mother lacks financial means. There are multiple precedents about this, commonly women who in bad faith tricked their partners into signing legal paternity, but most judges consider valid legal paternity if the child is born while the woman is married to the non-biological father. Also, recovering non-due child payments is a nightmare to the point that most lawyers suggest not going through it because the success rate is generally low, the outcome is very uncertain and even if successful in the majority of cases financial restitution turns out to be impossible.
They should have that law changed to be able to stop paying maintenance if a DNA test proves it wasn't the man's child, regardless if he'd added his name to the birth certificate not knowing his wife/partner/GF cheated on him. It is horrible for the child, I agree, but is equally traumatic for the man who thought he was the child's father. The real villain in this situation is the mother. I'm a woman, and I do think that kind of law to keep paying when you find out you're not the father, to be very unfair. This screengrab is by our Govt (UK). paternityD...c76d72.jpg
Load More Replies...What language is " babydaddy " ? Do they mean " my baby's daddy " ?
The language of tramps and thieves, from this example.
Load More Replies...Maybe you should contact the real daddy and hit him up for child support. If you remember who it is. Hey, kid, who's your daddy?
Why ghost the kid? Because the sicko who cheated on him is trying to steal money for someone elses child. Best to severe all ties so she cant try to manipulate him. Hope the next hearing is the "she knew now give back all my child support" one.
Notice how she frames the situation as her son failing the DNA test. A DNA test isn’t pass/fail, and if it’s anyone’s fault the guy and her son aren’t related, it’s hers. When she said she forgives herself for cheating, I think she really just shifted the blame to everyone else around her.
Women who call the father of their child a baby daddy deserve neither
My biggest concern was whether or not she forgave herself. I'm SO relieved.
I hate when people say 'babydaddy or babymama' sounds so moronic and lowclass.
If the b***h cheated, and it's not his kid, why should he have to take care of it? It's no longer his responsibility.
He's legally on the hook for child support if he's been doing it for 8 years, and regardless of DNA right? He accepted parental responsibilities? Unless that rule is a made up TV rule?
That's a made up non rule. She committed fraud, he's been a victim of a continuous felony for eight years. Hook free and she's going to be lucky if he doesn't go after all that money.
Load More Replies...Is this not in the US? Usually if you haven't protested paternity in I think 2 years, and acted as a parent, paid support, or raised them in all that time, you are stuck for the full 18 years, at least paying support. NO one can make u stay obviously. But courts don't let support end after 8 years as a "dad". Either this happened elsewhere, or I call BS.
I can't believe she described her cheating as her kid failing the test! Oh the arrogance!!
If the guy signed the papers when the kid was born, he's on the hook for child support despite the results of the DNA test.
Incorrect. He was the victim of fraud. No hook.
Load More Replies...Al also noted that entitlement amongst family members can sometimes be a bid for connection. “Just like a young child who is all smiles at daycare, and then comes home and has a meltdown, we tend to show our most difficult feelings around people we trust,” he previously shared. “So if a family member is asking a lot of you, it may be an unconscious way of asking ‘how much can I lean on you and have you still love me?’”
What The What?!
I can't deal with that "proud to be in the military " stuff. Where I come from, nobody see it as something positive.

“On the other hand, if someone has grown up in an environment where this kind of behavior was rewarded, or they observed it in others, it could be that this is just what feels normal to them,” the therapist pointed out. “They might not even see it as special treatment, it’s just what they’re used to doing.”

No, it means she cheated. I can't think of any other way to interpret this. Even in 16th century Europe that was grounds for divorce and do you know how hard it is to get the actual Pope to OK a divorce? Ask Henry the VIII.
We also asked the expert for some advice on dealing with relatives who make others feel guilty about not giving into their selfish demands. “This is what practicing boundaries is all about,” Al noted.
“It’s a common misconception that setting boundaries is about getting the other person to do something you want. Actually, it’s about figuring out what your limits are, and deciding how you’re going to respond when they’re crossed,” he explained. “Then, importantly, you communicate that decision ahead of time.”

“Say I have a parent who keeps giving me unsolicited parenting advice,” Al says. “My first step is to tell them it’s unwelcome, and ask them, firmly but kindly, to stop. Next, if they persist, I might say something like, ‘Listen, if you’re really not able to stop, I’m going to end our conversation. We can talk about something else another time.’”
“Of course, chances are, the person you set boundaries with is going to be upset at first. That’s where the guilt comes in,” the therapist continued. “No one wants to feel like they’re letting down someone they love, but tuning in to this caring can help you express yourself compassionately without compromising your own needs.”

While setting boundaries with entitled individuals is a good way to handle conflict, Al told Bored Panda that it doesn’t prevent it altogether. “It can be an emotionally taxing process, and especially if you’re naturally conflict-averse, it's important to have a support system in place as you go through it. This could mean speaking with friends, a partner, or a therapist, but should also include keeping in mind that you’re in a vulnerable place and treating yourself with care.”
