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!

Entitled Petty And Second Class Woman
You'd better address me with my neighbour's hamster's room-mates- librarians cousins rank, which is mayor pain in the a*s.
This Karen Got Owned By My Boss
This Unhinged Karen Who Hit And Bit Flight Attendants And Other Passengers On An American Airlines Flight Last July And Was Tied And Duct-Taped To Her Seat Was Fined $82,000
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.

Karens Will Be Karens
Your Loss!
“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
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.

Change Your Dog's Name, Or My Unborn Baby's Life Will Be Ruined
As a kid, I'd have been thrilled to death to have the same name as a dog.
“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.”

Came Across This Post From A Fellow Classmate. She Wants Everyone To Ask Her For Permission Before Getting Married/Taking On A Job
“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.”

She Thinks Her Husband Is In The Wrong! Infuriating
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.”

Someone On My College Campus Posted About Wanting Her BF Circumcised. I Hope He Dumps Her After This
Even if you were married, demanding that your partner get elective surgery to suit your tastes is a little extreme.
If I was him, I'd say "Sure, I'll get circumcized as soon as you get breast implants or a "husband stitch" or tummy tuck, etc." If it's okay to request him to change his looks, it's okay for him to request she do the same.
Load More Replies...For his and his member's sake, I hope he has cut her out of his life forever (pun intended)...
I don't like the appendix. If you're going to date me, you better get yours removed!
I’m not a fan of spleens. They’re icky. Huge dealbreaker. Gonna have to chop that out if you want to date me!
Load More Replies...Why wouldn't he medically mutilate himself for her? It's SUCH a small ask, and is her right to ask? /S 🙄
"Me wanting him to get circumsised is MY CHOICE".......oh, so you're the one with the penis?
"My boyfriend TRIED to expose me...." like he is wrong and she is right. I think she exposed herself with her own s****y, entiteled behaviour.
I feel I need to go talk to my uncircumcised son to let him know he has one body that belongs completely to him and if anyone he wants to be with demand he change his body to suit them.... well there's literally millions of other partners out there.
It's so clear how many of you are uncomfortable with their status.....
Load More Replies...Well in today's political climate ? Her body seems to be everybody's choice. So by everyone's logic here no one should be telling a woman what to do with her body. Right? Right?
Load More Replies...You want scaring for life feel free to have your own genitalia mutilated. No reason to force it others.
Kinda controlling. His foreskin isn't the only thing down there she's planning to cut off.
Don't know how long that will put him out of action but yeah kinda cutting herself off there
Load More Replies...Your opinions stop counting as soon as your opinions involve taking away basic rights, such as NOT wanting to get circumcised‽
This is literally insane. Can you imagine what the reaction would be if a man posted about how it was HIS CHOICE to ask his wife to be circumcised? It's called female genital mutilation (FGM) for a reason & it's a barbaric practice the WHO is trying to eliminate. https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/female-genital-mutilation But male circumsision isn't considered barbaric by much of the world. Here's an article about that. https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/male-circumcision-fgm-baby-child-abuse-body-rights-medical-hygiene-a9011896.html There are so many similarities in the procedures that I don't understand why it's still accepted for men. If it's for health reasons, or the individual chooses it for themselves, great, but why would anyone think they have the right to decide for someone else?The idea that anyone should tell you what to do with your body and especially your genitals is crazy.
It's a fight that has been going on for decades to educate and stop FGM. Just so women don't have pleasure
Load More Replies...Could you even imagine not only publicly posting this on campus somewhere but then doubling down??
His body, my choice. Lol. I think even mentioning to him that you'd like that, is a big thing. Yes, of course it's good to express your desires, and telling your partner that you find them more attractive with certain clothes/haircut/makeup is one thing. But telling them you'd find them more attractive if they'd surgically change their body, like getting circumcised/breast implants/nose job, that's a whole other thing. I'd say, if your partner hasn't been contemplating it themselves, and didn't ask you your opinion about it, better just not say it. It's something not a lot of people would like to do, and you're just gonna make them feel insecure about their body.
Makes ya wonder if it all started with the abortion issue....
Load More Replies...That man should dump that worthless thing immediately. I doubt she's smart enough to realize he's better in bed than men who were sexually mutilated as babies.
"my boyfriend doesn't want to participate in genital mutilation: is he crazy?"
So... she should get a boob job and surgery on her labia minora (if he's into that)?
He should tell her "Yeah, okay - if you undergo female circumcision - known (correctly) as female genital mutilation - first." I have a strange feeling she wouldn't fancy going through that herself...
"yalls"=your; yousguyses=your. I have peeves, this is one of them.
"Your Choice?" wouldn't it be his choce to have it done? stupid "Karen"
I'd like to compare this to a recent court case in the US that was overturned
I never asked my husband to do something life altering like that. Many women tell me: I had al those menstruations, bor5h controle, i had the children, now its his turn. Well, i do not agree, it is not for me te deside what he does to his body and god knows, he will find another oartner sime day and have a child with her. I am sure i wil not after 4. And now i'm to old, but i made de desision to do it myself, my body, my future.
You can't make choices about another person's body. You can express a wish for him to get mutilated, but it's HIS CHOICE, whether to do it or not. If he says NO, that's all there is to it. If you keep demanding, then you deserve all the bad comments you've got.
Just ask yourself how you'd react if he stated that he like small labia, and asked you to get yours reduced, and you will probably quickly realise how much out of line you are.
Not the labia. It's like reducing the sensation in the cl!toris.
Load More Replies...Well she is allowed to state her preferences (tacky or stupid as that might be), and he allowed to giver her a firm NO! as response. His body, his choice, and you shouldn't change your body just to fit the preferences of someone who might only be temporary partner. It really is that simple. Boy did that post have a lot of I's and not a single "we". Yes it might be your choice, but it is a stupid choice to make, and as choices have consequenses, that kind of behavior may very well end up being the end of your relationship.
Let me get this straight. HIS penis, YOUR choice??? WTF, girl? You're asking to be dumped. I hope he realizes that soon.
I can't believe the audacity of some people. Can't we just accept people for who they are and what they got?
It's waaayyyy too late for a guy to have one as an adult. Personally I prefer cut to uncut, but that has to be done after they are born. I know it's not popular anymore, but both my stepgrandsons are circumcised. I was suprised their parents had it done since it doesn't seem to be done by parents their age.
I'd love to see the tantrum if he turns it around on her and demands that she have cosmetic surgery, such as breast implants, saying it's her body, his choice.
Just to refute eric p: https://youtu.be/gCSWbTv3hng -- Since Adam Conover explains it better than I could.
If he's not perfect, don't try to change him. Try again, and this time specify on Tinder that he must be circumcised.
Wow. That is a very personal choice that should be respectfully brought up and discussed, but the decision is his.
It is the choice of the man whether he wants it done or not. I was circumcised at the age of seven because the foreskin was too tight and i couldn't pee properly.
Btw, understand that many men in US, not Jewish or Muslim, chose to circumcise. Can anyone explain what is the reason for this?
How, exactly, can a still wet minutes to hours newborn male CHOOSE to be mutilated? Explain. Cite medical sources.
