'[She] gives me the most infuriating little wave': Guy waits in line to refill his tires, entitled Karen cuts him off, cue payback

Fail Blog - Sat, 05/04/2024 - 05:00

Cutting in line is always a dangerous game. Not only are you showing that you lack any sort of moral code, but also you are likely making enemies out of the other people in line, and their retaliation may be far more intense than just an eye roll. 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/turtlesh0es, who was waiting to refill his tires at his local Wawa when an entitled Karen asked if she could go before him. The Redditor had already been waiting for some time and politely declined. You would think that would have been the end of the interaction, but then you'd be wholly incorrect. This woman proceeded to cut him off when it was his turn and risk a small accident in the process. Thankfully, no physical damage was done, but the emotional betrayal ran deep. So, the Redditor decided to pull out the air compressor from his trunk, pull up right next to her so she would be blocked in, and keep her blocked while he was filling his tires and those of the other patient folks in line.

Guy puts in headphones to tune out grocery store Karen who's demanding to cut in line: 'Probably the greatest reaction to an entitled boomer I've seen in years'

Fail Blog - Sat, 05/04/2024 - 04:00

Going to the grocery store around rush hour is a universally dreadful experience. You have to maneuver your cart around the tens of people rushing in every which way direction, tired from a long day at work and just trying to get home for dinner. No one is having a pleasant experience. And then you get to the checkout lines. The lanes are never all open at once, with lines piled up at each open register. You think about going to the self-checkout, but those lines are even longer. 

So, imagine you're already irritated, and then an entitled Karen joins the line behind you, only to demand that you allow her to cut in front of you. Her reasoning? She has more items than you, and she has somewhere to be. Any reasonable person would understand that this request is ridiculous. But you have to be careful when you're dealing with a Karen; you never know what is going to put her into a full-blown rage. So what did this man do? He put his Airpods in while she continued on with her complaining. Once she realized that he couldn't hear her, she finally quieted down. This innocent bystander saw the whole ordeal and thought this man deserved recognition for his great reaction. Luckily for us, he detailed the full story below. 

Apparently, grocery store Karens are not a rare experience. Read this story next: '[I] snagged one of the carts full of groceries and took off': Customer teaches entitled Karens a lesson for dissing an employee

Barista gets reprimanded by manager for not giving a customer her phone number: '

Fail Blog - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 15:00

There's this weird thing that happens in customer service where sometimes customers begin to misunderstand the relationship.

To be fair, in jobs like retail and service, you're expected to wear a smile and put on a bubbly persona—as if you wouldn't rather be doing anything else than making an aging dead-eyed finance bro his daily latte. People, usually those who have never had the pleasure of working one of these jobs, don't appreciate this performance for what it is and tend to mistake the fact that you're being kind to them because you have to—not because you have any real personal interest or investment in them.

And let's be more realistic here: it's not as if you don't enjoy bantering with regulars and building little relationships with them. However, even outside of the customer/servant dynamic of customer service exchanges, it's important to remember, in all areas of life, that no one owes you anything or is contracted to any more meaningful relationship with you just because they're being pleasant towards you. 

These interactions are an original everyday example of "parasocial relationships," as we now discuss them when it comes to celebrities and other public personas. Just because someone's performance stirs up thoughts and feelings within you doesn't mean that there's any possibility of those feelings being reciprocated. The act is a means to generate wealth—a marketing ploy.

Just in case

Hotel guest demands full refund after positive experience, boasting 'I always get my way'

Fail Blog - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 14:00

It can't be simple to work in the hospitality sector. There's something about the entitled vacationers that never fails to stun the dedicated crew. Having said that, how would you respond if a haughty client barged into your establishment expecting to be taken advantage of and let down? Would you face the hard truth that this isn't a conflict worth waging, or would you try to prove him wrong and give him the trip of a lifetime?

The story that follows is the story of a confused hotel worker. The original poster (OP) works at the front desk of an upscale hotel. When a haughty guest storms into the hotel and demands to check out the room before deciding to stay the night, the story starts to take shape. The problem arises, though, when OP informs the couple that they booked their reservation through a third party and are therefore unable to cancel or receive a refund for their purchase.

That being said, be sure to read the story below if you're interested in learning more about what happened and whether OP was able to communicate with the haughty customer in a composed and orderly manner! After you've done reading, don't forget to check out the story of the helicopter company that is humiliated by a client who leaves a negative review!

'I got just the cut for you': 30+ memorable haircuts and barber flops

Fail Blog - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 13:00

No one forgets a horrendous haircut experience. It's the kind of story from your past that occasionally creeps its way into your memory out of nowhere and instantly causes you to cringe and shiver.

If you are lucky enough to have never had a bad haircut experience, imagine sitting in that chair and having your barber swivel you around so you can finally see yourself in the mirror. Then, imagine not being able to recognize yourself or anything you instructed your barber in what you see in the reflection. All you can think is what was this dude thinking? 

What's even more remarkable about some of these hairdos is that they actually were not accidental. That's right. Apparently, some customers genuinely walk into their barber shops asking to have their hair morphed into the shape and look of an uncooked hamburger patty. Keep scrolling below for this collection of barber flops. For more content like this, check out these ridiculous pizza flavors.

'I tried to warn someone... they never listen': Beach town tourist refuses to pay hotel bill, calls front desk to gloat

Fail Blog - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 12:00

Hotel front desk workers are responsible for many things, but fixing poor customer decisions is not one of them. One hotel worker at a popular beach destination knows that all too well in the aftermath of an incident with one customer that really stood out. 

Taking a summer trip to the beach can be an amazing way to relax and unwind for a few days. You can start each morning with a hotel breakfast, then spend your days with your toes in the sand while the kids build sandcastles. After spending the day swimming in the ocean and strolling the boardwalk, you can return to your hotel to swim and get a good night's sleep. But you've got to book that hotel room early. Some beaches have their hotel rooms for the summer months get booked out months in advance. If you want that room for July, you may have to book in June. This person writes that at the hotel they worked at, room prices could hit nearly $300 per night during that busy season. 

One guest found out the hard way what happens if you book a pair of rooms and then just decide to not stay there, for some reason. The guest seems like a really unpleasant fellow. To their credit, the hotel worker was a complete professional every step of the way. In the end, their patience and calmness paid off in the best way. You can check out the whole story down below.

'We moved out without telling them': Intrusive landlord enforces monthly inspections, tenants move out, forcing him to scramble

Fail Blog - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 11:00

Apartment drama is one of the few conflicts we can all relate to. Most adults starting out in their early twenties have had to deal with abysmal living situations. That could be nightmare roommates, noisy neighbors, unlivable conditions, and actively counterproductive landlords. 

The thing about landlords is they are never present when you need them to be but they are ever-present when they need more money from you. These tenants certainly learned the hard way what can happen when you're living under the roof of an intrusive landlord. He started enforcing mandatory monthly inspections, not because of anything the tenants were doing but because of other tenants in a different unit. Why should these guys have to suffer as a result of their landlord's total negligence with regard to someone else? 

Just when this landlord thought he had control of these Redditors, they remembered that at the end of the day, they could just leave, which is exactly what they did. Keep scrolling below for the full story. For more stories like this, here is one about another tenant's revenge on their neighbors.

Introducing ‘Kahu’, The Wholesome Hawaiian Word Replacing ‘Feline Pawrent’ We Have All Been Searching For (Video)

LOL Cats - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 11:00

Purr, purr dear feline loving hoomans Friday morning is slowly ticking along and that means that Caturday is inching ever closer. And with that in mind we have prepared this little treat for you, all you feline pawrents out there. For as we all know, being a feline pawrent has certain qualities to it that do not quite match up with traditional parenthood. As such, today we introduce you to the Hawaiian term - Kahu. A wholesome word used to describe much more than parenthood, and specifically in relation to parenting a cat.

Kahu speaks to the guardianship, protection, stewardship and being your feline fur baby's beloved attendant. It speaks to the trust that is put in someone to safeguard something as precious as a cute cat, and as we all know we would do anything for our precious cattos. So take a moment to understand and appreciate your new role as not just the doormat that your clawminal cat wipes their feet on, but as their guardian from the world.

‘I called him out in front of the entire team’: Boomer delegates all tasks to his team, then calls young employees lazy because they enjoy working from home

Fail Blog - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 10:00

We all have a Harold at the office.

Harold grumbles, slams his stapler down with more force than necessary, and is practically a walking relic of the paper-pushing era. "Back in my day, we put in an honest day's work. Eight hours, no questions asked. Not this 'work-life balance' nonsense."

You're stuck collaborating with him while he shoots daggers at your laptop screen. He drones on about how working from home is for the lazy, and how it can't be possible to focus without the structure of an office. The dude is a dinosaur. You glance around the office and blink a few times, taking in the painfully bright fluorescent lights. You would much rather work from home. At least sometimes. Why is it better to work in a loud dungeon?

One employee took to r/pettyrevenge to discuss one such coworker (I told you, everyone knows a Harold) who was grumpy, mean, and also ironically lazy. He would talk about the younger employees slacking off because they were working from home, all while delegating all his tasks to them. Hmm, who is lazy, really? Scroll down to read what the employee did in response, and then check out this guest who checked into a hotel for 45 minutes, only to unsuccessfully demand a full refund.

29 Trucker Memes for the Drivers Going the Extra Mile

Fail Blog - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 09:00

Being a truck driver has its ups and downs. Your 'office' has some of the best views in the world. That is, after you've already suffered the miles of endless asphalt with the occasional cow pasture. But you get to meet all kinds of different people from across the country and pick up some cool yet questionable souvenirs from the infamous trucker stops along the way. It's just you on the road; you can spend your whole day talking to friends on the phone or listening to podcasts, and no one is there to stop you. But you also have to deal with a never-ending battle against time…and traffic. When you're driving all day long, you're bound to hit rush hour, and you can't just easily maneuver in and out of lanes or take backroads in your truck. Not gonna happen. You just have to endure it and hope your friend can talk a little longer on the phone. But one of the biggest perks? The pay. You can skip out on the whole four years of college thing and thousands of dollars in student loans and still come out making six figures. Yeah, you gotta put up with the downsides, but what job doesn't? At least we can enjoy our peace and quiet.

'Karen had made a complaint to the board': Entitled neighbor tattles to HOA about boat issue, is forced to admit defeat

Fail Blog - Fri, 05/03/2024 - 08:00

It's not every day you hear about someone having a positive experience with their local HOA. It seems like 95% of the time, people share stories complaining about how controlling their HOAs are. 

A lot of Home Owner's Associations, or HOAs for short, have a habit of doling out fines for the pettiest little reasons. Some people have been fined for things like parking their cars in their own driveways, or for placing those little signs on their lawn that advertise the landscaper who trimmed the garden. There are a ton of tiny ways that HOAs can show off their might, and they're happy to rake in cash on the hefty fines they can assign. 

This person actually found an HOA that was reasonable. They had "genuinely a positive HOA experience," writing that they felt the HOA was reasonable and correctly advocated for keeping the neighborhood tidy. However, they had a Karen neighbor who loved tattling to the HOA over tiny issues. Instead of just minding her business, she had to get involved. 

U/Ok-One-3240 shares that their father had a great idea to get back at this neighborhood Karen without breaking a single HOA rule. Check out the full story below, then read about the person who was instructed by the internet to "let the newbie fail" at their job.
