Not only are they jerks they're assholes. If her balancing out to where it equals the same for the cash amount then that's fine. No one told you to have a baby. Someone with common sense knows that a child is expensive. You demanding chores to be done, getting cash and the other bullshit was unreasonable. And like he mentioned people having wedding which you're hoping to get cash as a gift. If you're doing something beyond what you can afford, then you really need to rethink what you're doing. My dream wedding is Vegas and the sheap buffet they have. Don't care about impressing anyone because when reality hits, my bills gotta get paid. Also what financial plans did you have during the pregnancy or were you just hoping people would shell out cash because you were doing something women have been doing since the dawn of time?

[@drdtryygugijhk4517]

bro nah, this is way to harsh... seriously

[@carlrood4457]

Their reasoning doesn't even make sense. At its core, money is stand in as compensation for your time and effort. It's a simpler means than those complicated barter deals you saw in some episodes of MASH. She was WILLING to do extra chores (i.e. give her time and effort) in lieu of a cash or gift payment. The extra work IS the gift. However, their demands are tantamount to blackmail and I'd never had anything to do with them as they don't seem to understand what family is for in the first place and that child will be raised to be terrible person by those two.

[@mage1439]

Most of the time you'd have to just about tell family and friends to fudge off because they're trying to do TOO much. This level of expectation is ridiculous by pretty much any standard.

If i was asked to babysit for them, I'd tell them I'd need them to pay for takeout for me, no matter how expensive, I'd charge for every diaper change, if I had to wash a bottle for the baby I would charge cleaning fees by the half hour, and I'd want payment in advance, if they want me over for more than 1 hour they would be paying the price they'd offer me per hour. so if they said for example 60, i would charge 60 an hour.

HOA story, make an agreement with them that they shall pay for everything, they shall also pay for the landscaping that of your choice (so they cant just get the cheapest thing), and that you shall never receive another notice from them again.

Sounds like Karen was guilty of fostering a hostile working environment, at the VERY LEAST.

[@Zinervawyrm]

Story 2 is all out classic prank. I think it's funny. She's the older sibling being nosy and childish by snooping in her brother's and sister-in-law's bedroom and denying it like a toddler, only to get mad when she's caught red handed and off guard.

[@taeko3508]

Oh my god. The OP in the last story is an absolute Karen

[@TheGothicgirl44]

I agree

[@FakeFoxSR1]

The last story gave me whiplash with that twist. I heard the first couple requirements and was like "odd but ok" but then I heard chores, money and no exceptions and I was like "ayo what?!". They a total jerks honestly I wouldn't be surprised when someone finds a story from the college kid's perspective

[@dianekay8771]

The last story is absolutely crazy. Wow. They are the a-holes

[@ApacheGamer]

So this is a long on so bare with me as I have a say on all three stories, some based on actual experience. 1st story. They were a tyrannical boss that thought they couldn't be fired because they were the face of the company's LGBTQ inclusiveness. First off, everyone can be fired. Had a former Team Lead at a factory who thought because she'd been there for 20yrs was untouchable. She started giving the new supervisor hell and kept cutting corners and stopping nearly an hour early so she could wait half an hour to clock out. She pulled the seniority card until finally the plant manager fired her. As for the LGBTQ thing. I had an employee when I was a Department Manager at a small store try and accuse me of being sexist against her for being female which caused a meeting with us and the Store Manager. She claimed I made only women flow merchandise to the floor and kept only men to build furniture which was untrue. I had two people on furniture, and one was a female who would later on my recommendation be promoted to Department Manager of furniture,as well as a female doing lamps. When her claim was debunked the Store Manager dismissed it. She then tried to claim that we were against her because she was Trans which again didn't work because she had already tried using that card to get out of working the front of the store, and we had another Trans employee, AND both Assistant Managers and the 4th Key we're either Gay or Lesbian. She was fired a week later for being a troublesome employee. The second story about the HOA. I despise HOA, but it's not always an option especially where I live. Anyways, we had a run in with an HOA via a friend who is renting next to an HOA neighborhood. One day we had a BBQ for a birthday and the HOA came running over trying to claim we couldn't have the party because it disturbed their neighborhood and the cars that were parked there were "Unsightly". Apparently they had a rule that vehicles older than five years had to be hidden in the garage. She eventually tried to step on the property physically turn the music off. Big mistake since it was a friend's expensive setup and I'm a Martial Artist. She tried to push me and I stood my ground and wouldn't budge. She then grabbed the cord and yanked it pulling the laptop with it. My friend was livid and nearly charged her, but I stopped him. She tried to push past me again and this time she was met with me twisting her arm around and slamming her to a table as cops arrived. They saw her attack and I told them I wouldn't let go until they had her in cuffs and would gladly let them cuff me too if necessary. Another friend had video evidence and she was charged with trespassing, vandalism, and assault. Honestly I think the guy in the story handled better than I would have, but no he most definitely wasn't the jerk. Lastly the new baby couple. Wow, just Wow. Like they are literally charging admission to see there kid? I get the vaccine, smoking, and perfume, but demanding food, gifts, gift cards, chores, all for an hour? That is absolutely absurd. Had a cousin make ridiculous demands once for us to see his kid, and I've still never met the kid. Most of my family hasn't either. It's one thing to ask for help or assistance, or even suggest a donation, and again I understand some of it, but the rest is quite literally using their kid as a cash cow. They are definitely the jerk in that story. Again sorry for the long comment, but this is one of the few videos that actually hit close to home with all three.

[@H3xx99]

For the HOA story, not only would I charge them a hefty damages fee for tearing up my yard, but I would also charge them a monthly rent for having their pipes run through my yard. HOA would be paying my mortgage and retirement.

[@vernonharden]

I'd make sure it was also amended into the deed per property using said line(s) regarding the monthly rental fee. There would be an account put into a perpetual escrow to not only cover the repairs for the lines, but also the full restoration of the area dug up and the area around the digging area.

[@RJB1013]

The parents in that last story are pathetic and severely entitled. To not allow a 20 y/o college student who is broke to see the baby is really cruel just because she can't afford a gift. This is a whole new level of entitlement.

[@devontyrell1969]

Was really hoping the narrator would actually say, "you are the asshole" in the last one.

[@Michael-bb5dd]

The Minority/LGBTQ+ Karen gives a lot of good people a bad name. Not a jerk.

[@SenseiRaisen]

And even more after 2020 when there is a lot of people's entitlement resurface, no exception to the rule. Just look how they burn the mainstream comic industry, and the movie industry too (both the ones who hire and people like this in the name of inclusion and diversity).

[@Rody_Lamoree]

Totally agree. People like that give everyone else a bad name. I don’t agree with the lifestyle of LGBTQ+ given my religion and beliefs, but that being said I don’t think the LGBTQ are any more likely to be bad than a regular person. The fact she tried to sue them for discrimination and use it as an excuse is INSANE. You might just be doing a bad job, it’s not usually because you’re a minority that they fire you.

[@Michael-bb5dd]

​@@Rody_Lamoree In my opinion people should really stop dressing their dislikes and grievances with stuff like religious beliefs and social issues.

[@johncurran6031]

The last couple with all the conditions for coming to their house to see the baby are insane. If I was in that family I would write them a letter saying I would not be interested in being in their house or seeing them in my house until they became sane once more. Then I would avoid them unless and until their conditions were reasonable, by which I mean, sane and a lot fewer of them.

If I were the OP near the HOA, I'd probably let the HOA fix their pipe for the sake of the residents, but only if they got something in writing about all of this and paid me each time they messed with it

[@sealsnoot]

HOA guy needs to get with the community to stick it to the HOA. Living with an HOA is hell, it's all power tripping passive aggressive letters and stupid rules, so those people are not only innocent victims of the conflict but also still under the tyranny of their HOA. Get a lawyer, get with the folks, find a solution that's favorable to him and them and use it as a community building opportunity.

Last story: Who demands gifts to see a baby? And they aren't even allowed to ask why about the rules? I feel sorry for the kid. What are they going to do when it grows and starts making friends? Will they not be allowed to visit unless they meet certain conditions? They sure have a warped sense of family.
