Karens can be intimidating and unruly coworkers. We gathered 10 stories from people who took revenge against a Karen.

If you have ever visited a store, movie theater, restaurant or any other establishment, chances are good you have encountered an “Entitled Karen.” These individuals have become viral celebrities due to their extreme sense of entitlement and unreasonable behaviors which often get caught on video.

Hateful speech, violence and other inappropriate/embarrassing acts may also be employed by these groups to intimidate management and workers; often calling them names and demanding they leave until they receive what they desire.

One particularly egregious incident took place at a gas station where Trader Joe’s Karen went berserk upon being told to wear a mask and then spattered upon one of their customers – an incident which has since gone viral and ignited considerable outrage from viewers.

3. I threatened to sue

Though you might consider it childish to threaten someone with legal action, people do often resort to this tactic in times of frustration and cannot find another outlet for their frustration – instead using legal channels as an outlet.

Sad as it may be, this has unfortunately become the norm; but we should be thankful for the protection provided by our legal system in this regard. Additionally, it’s important to acknowledge that most threats made by other individuals against individuals have no basis whatsoever and don’t require actual actions being taken on their behalf.

Notably, there are other methods for getting back at a rude and entitled Karen; just make sure you select the suitable option.

5. I retaliated

Experienced when dealing with rude and entitled Karens is enough to annoy any individual; these individuals can act out in various ways – calling the cops on children holding lemonade stands, refusing to leave a restaurant until their way is achieved, etc.

At times, these individuals may engage in disruptive and violent acts towards innocent bystanders – spitting at random people, insulting workers and even threatening innocent bystanders with violence.

Though these actions may be exciting to watch, they’re not always the best decision in the moment.

One person related an account from a gas station where Karen responded angrily when asked to wear a mask; she became angry, insisting on exempting herself due to medical breathing conditions that allowed her to avoid wearing one despite its importance during a pandemic. Such actions should never occur in public settings where essential workers may be vulnerable.

6. I slapped her

Karens can often be found working in restaurants or gas stations where they feel free to be aggressively petty. They will block people from entering a space or make disparaging remarks to retail employees about refund policies.

Karen is a popular slang term used to refer to White middle-class women who make unreasonable demands and attempt to control others’ actions.

Karen came into prominence during a period of heightened political and racial tension, as an effective way to call out White women who engaged in racist behavior.

Karen behavior ranges from mildly annoying (“giving raisins to kids on Halloween”) to downright irritating (“using an SUV as carpool for her children”). These women typically lack empathy with their victims, making racist 911 calls and embellishing reviews online to cover up for any misdeeds they commit.

9. I screamed

Karen has become a byword for those who make life hard for others. While the label could apply to anyone deemed annoying, its specific use pertains to those who act out their emotions when feeling as though they don’t receive fair treatment from society.
