Karen: "I demand to speak with the owner!"
Owner: "I AM the owner! Get out!!!"
Story 4: If he had quoted her a price, she would have probably choked. A well trained, well bred Haflinger horse can go for between $5000 and $20,000 depending upon several factors.
Honestly, I'd have been like, "Give me your car keys. I'm gonna drive your car because it's gonna be my car after I buy it from you." and see how the Karen reacted.
@@recycledapathy7411and I'd bet anything that would have gone over like a lead balloon
Story 3: I love when the guy says "I'm not that stupid!" Which is basically him admitting that he is on some level stupid. Which he absolutely is.
This dad never saw a wild cat or any animal show showing any felin in the wild... they are hunter monster... MONSTER!!! I prefer a pitbull over a cat in a fight!
This is the same parent who gets his kid killed in Yellowstone trying to "pet a bison"!!!
@@gabrielleschiavo9078I will never understand why people need to get close to wild animals when they are told not to. There was an idiot that touched a bison calf to get it back to its herd which of course didn't want the calf and it was killed by rangers I think.
Go ahead, Kevin, stick your arm in there...
@@gabrielleschiavo9078 I think it's on this channel I got a story about a mother trying to steal two baby goat and the male has head bump her and climb on her vehicule (where the baby where). And when I heard that, I had one question : She is alive?!? Until they shown a picture ... it was type of goat where the male is like 70-90 pounds. I had one at home when I was young, he was 250-300 pounds with rolling horn and if he head bumb, he destroyed! My father told me he know out a beef (2000 + pounds). He was very friendly... until he wasn't anymore! That how animal are (even "domesticated" cat) : they work on basic instinc that maintain them alive that doesn't respect our logic.
"I'm not _stupid!_ Are you _assuming_ I'm stupid...?"
"I'm certainly beginning to..."
"Are you assuming I'm stupid?!?!"
"Well, with the way you're acting, it's kind of hard to assume otherwise..."
Story 3: The Entitled Dad should have been kicked out immediately for violating clearly posted rules.
And if there was ever a case that needs to be reported to Child Protective Services, this is one.
These are cases that I think the Karens are setting up the locations for a lawsuit. And they are perfectly willing to put their kids in danger just to get a big payout. CPS should definitely be called in these cases!
The story sounds like fiction, and probably chatbot generated fiction because in real life that father would have been at least banned and trespassed from the park after doing something like that.
Edit: And, if you're bitten or scratched by a cat, unless you're actually spurting blood the best thing to do is allow the wound to bleed for a couple of seconds to push any infection out of the wound, then wash it before bandaging it. Then you need to keep a close eye on it to be sure, as it's 50/50 that you'll need antibiotics to deal with the remaining infection.
I'm surprised cops weren't called; zoos don't mess around when people sneak into enclosures.
Story 2: This woman is a worse liar than a Chapter 1 visual novel villain. The way her story falls apart at the words "last week" is hilarious.
Story 1: We had a vegetarian contractor once, and when discussing lunch, a BBQ place was brought up. We then looked at the menu trying to see if there was anything he could even eat (out of curiosity). If I was the owner, I'd just look at her and say "are you stupid? This is a BBQ restaurant"
Good vegetarian BBQ option is grilled camebert.
@@MrxDaffy feel like she would have been upset since it isn't vegan xD
Veggie burger,
@@rachelphone5616 At least at the one we went to, they didn't have burgers at all, let alone veggie burgers. Even the sides, like cream corn, even had meat in them
@@MrxDaffyjackfruit makes a credible plant based BBQ
First story: This reminds me of a Yelp review I once read, reviewing a supermarket that was part of a large regional chain. This woman, who was a radical vegan activist, gave the store a 1-star review because she was shocked, SHOCKED to see a meat counter actually displaying MEAT!!
Pffffffft
Her vitamin B-12 levels were catastrophically low.
For any retail workers who get the 'I know the owner' dips, try this:
Ask them again if they really know them by name, but give them a fake name other than the actual owner's name. Perfect for catching their lies
I'll never understand why people think it's a good idea to just try and ride some random horse.
While haflingers are normally pretty laid back, doesn't mean this one was. Plus, it wasn't their horse!
Story 5: Having an impatient tantrum for a 12 combo meal not being immediately ready, not reading the part where it says that kids meals get activities instead of plastic toys, getting pi$$y that someone who ordered after her got their food first because it was smaller, throwing the N-Word, yeah she is pretty immature (and also spoiled by the sound of it).
Honestly she should just be grateful that she even got the meal
If logic could be measured on a scale, Karens' would fall into negative numbers. I work retail, and I had to deal with this incredibly dumb person for Western Union. She was hoping to pick up like $15 hundred dollars, but she couldn't provide the tracking number. Like the very thing that proves you have money coming and we can tell the system it's been picked up. And then she couldn't get in contact with the person sending so she left. Then we see her on The Fourth, she tries again right when Western Union is open. We've done NO business yet and wouldn't be able to pay it out, unless she wanted it all in 10's and 5's, depleting our change reservoir. She refused to leave, saying she "understood" we don't have the money to give her, but refused to accept that. Then kept asking when we will have it. Key word, "will". We can't predict the business we'll have, so there was no actual guarantee would EVER have it that day. I mean, we're not going to refuse paying out to other customers for smaller amounts. But she insisted on waiting instead of going to another location. Thankfully another customer did a huge sum of money orders in cash that made it possible to get rid of her, but seriously.
I pity her children…..
I'd be surprised if she didn't get the "special " sauce in her food
Worse part is people like her who order large amount at a drive through don’t know they inconvenience others by ordering so much. The point of drive throughs are *mostly* to get people food quickly if they can’t afford to wait in the restaurant, and they slow that down.
Question. What are kids doing up at 11pm?
Story 3: As dumb as dad and kid were, I have to admit I too have an impulse to pet cats that I intellectually know would tear me apart if I tried to do so. Anyone who has seen a cheetah meow would understand! But that doesn't mean you do it!!
Well at lest you admit you know it's wrong, for the dad in that story he's lucky op didnt think of calling child protective services and have the child taken away. What idiot father intentionally puts his child in danger!!
Cheetahs are one of the largest cats that can purr!
@@quiestinliteris and they are usually more sociale than most wild cats (one of the few big cats that can be kept as pets, my grandparents had two in Congo who behaved like dogs) but that's indeed not a reason not to be ware X'D
Well no wild cheetahs have killed human as of last year's google search but I'm not 100 percent sure that's fully true lol. I think they run away more than other cats form humans, and also they tend to bond with people in captivity since they are almost domesticated in my entirely unscientific opinion
Regarding the zoo story: Even a domestic house cat can do serious damage to a human, especially a human *child!* I remember when I was little, before I knew better, I upset the family cat and ended up with my arm completely wrapped in bandages. My parents' attitude was, "That's what you get for not being nice to the kitty." I've never forgotten the experience and since then, I've treated cats with the respect they deserve.
My cousin was 3 when she pulled my cat's tail. My cat hated and avoided anyone under 10 after that. The cat wasn't aggressive, but he would defend himself if kids started bothering him. Both my cousin, and my cat learned a lesson that day.
My cat has bitten me hard enough that I called out of work that day. Poor girl had a nightmare and took it out on me
We take vicious and efficient predators into our homes and forget that that's what they are at heart. But any animal can be dangerous if it's in pain or if it thinks you're a threat. We live in a kind of cooperative balance with our pets, and it's really up to us not to upset that balance since the pets can't help being what they are.
Story 3 - I hope that whoever karen complained to told him that OP probably saved his daughter's life.
First story, I'm willing to bet the Karen didn't go to the vegan place down the street, because it wasn't about getting a vegan meal, it was (as it always is with Karens) about power. A vegan restaurant will happily accommodate her dietary preferences, just as OP's establishment offers a salad, but that's not what she wants. What she wants is to /force/ people who would normally do otherwise to bow down and cater (2:24) to her, jumping through her hoops. She's a bully, pure and simple, she's just tries to paper it over with self-righteousness, even using her son as a human shield (1:40).
I used to work at Dairy Queen. The amount of customers that would come in and ask about our lactose free options was astounding
But there's lactose free milk and ice cream so it makes logical sense that you would have lactose free products. I'm confused on why you are saying this like it's stupid? 🤔
@@annabaker4150 there’s also animal free meat, but we all agree that the person in this video is stupid for going to a bbq restaurant and expecting vegan options. Dairy Queen only has 2 lactose free options on the menu, French fries and water
@@annabaker4150 because that's not their market and such products wouldn't be profitable which is why they're available directly to customers at an increased price. You're not suggesting that someone who knows they have issues with dairy products showing up at Dairy Queen and not having options is a more a failure of Dairy Queen instead of the person. It's your responsibility to manage and plan for your dietary issues not every business in existence. If I walk into a seafood restaurant knowing just the concentrated smell is enough to trigger my issues its on me not them. Someone going into Dairy Queen when the warning is right there in the name is just wasting people's time. Just like the lady walking into a BBQ place looking for vegan options. It's not physically possible for any business to cater to every possible customer needs which is why they generally name and list their services beforehand. We live in an age where such information is easier to obtain than ever before. There's no reason to be that dense now.
@@annabaker4150You are the one being stupid! Of course there are lactose-free products - at the grocery store, not sr Dairy Queen!!!
@@marcning918 In short, Karen's abysmally poor planning is not an emergency for a business.
Story 2 - why would anyone show up to a doctor's office without making an appointment?😅😅😅
She's a Karen; they have as much intelligence as a jellyfish.
Right. If it's an emergency go to the ER. If it's urgent go to urgent care. No appointment needed.
Story 2: Karen's end-game seemed to be intimidating to get a free session? Instead she gets barred for life?
She still didn't get half what she deserved for threatening other people's jobs.
Umm, the guy at the zoo...was it his grandma that was trying to pet the buffalo at Yellowstone?
Hugs and i saw a woman get gored by bison at the park right after being told that the animal are wild and to return the way we had come.
Theyvhadcthevgall to have their lawyer call us to be on their side.🤦♀️she wanted to sue the park and the guide who didn't lock up the animals or warn that they were dangerous.
I and my hubs told the lawyer exactly what we heard and saw. The case was actually closed after he talked to the witnesses 😅
At our local zoo they have a special night time feeding tour you can pay extra for.
They warn you not to get too close to the bars as one of the lioness was in heat and it was causing issues with some of the males.
As in the male, if he liked you would back up and spray you like a house cat did except for 100 times worse in amount and stink lol
This one woman didn't think the rules applied to her and she was wearing some super strong, musky perfume.
She was so excited that the big Lion got really close to his set of mesh. The mesh for people was several feet from the first set. But that big horn Lion smelled that lady-backed up and everyone but the lady seem to understand that big man was about to get busy marking his territory. The guide warned her to move and move quickly but the entitled lady was scoffing and trying to take photos.
That lion soaked her from about waist down to her fancy expensive shoes. 🦁🤣🤣🤣 it wascso awful and funny at the same time lol
The one that got removed her trouser?😂
One dude tried calling my work once because i was pro mask (i'm a volunteer nurse) to tattle on my bosses. You know, the people who make and maintain the rules. We put him on speaker and he did NOT like it he got laughed at by the entire staff and residents. My boss told him he was a massive 1d1ot and if he calls again we'll file a complaint to the police. Never called back. My friend is vegan and could not care any less if someone eats animal products right next to him. He also buys meat product for his dog and never forces the dog to be vegan.
Non-militant vegans seem to be a rarity these days.
Thank you for being there guys! I hope you are both happy and healthy as can be!
I'm vegan. Most of us just want to minimize animal suffering. People like that just make life more difficult for us. When I go out to eat, I check the menu ahead of time. If they don't have anything I can eat, I either decline to join my friends or eat before I go and just order a drink. Most menus are posted online these days so I feel like this woman went to that place just to make trouble. No need to act like a jerk to people who are just trying to do their jobs.
Definitely. She was just trying to be a jerk. You're right, almost 95% of all restaurants post their menu online so she did it just to be a jerk
I'm not vegan, but I do have something called ARFID, which limits my diet. I always check the menu ahead of time if I'm going out to eat. And if not eating at someone else's house, I'm more than happy to bring my own food, because I know I can't expect people to go out of their way to accommodate me 100% of the time.
I'm still a smoker. I don't smoke unless there is a smoking area or I just wait to get home. I always ask before I visit everyone. How hard is it to be informed and accommodating and courteous.
And let's not get started on people who claim to be vegan just to be trendy, and then have no idea what foods they wouldn't be allowed to have. But back to the point, she either wanted an excuse to be an asinine hole, or actually expected them to just magically produce food (other than the salad) that catered to her.
@@EveryDayALittleDeath Same! I always offer to bring my own food to home gatherings.
Wait. There are really people out there who order a dozen meal combos at the drivethrough window? That's wild.
Yep happens all the time at the drive through I work at. A lot of people are pretty chill about it bothe the person ordering and the people behind them. One of the funniest conversations I had was with the cars behind the big order the people were so nice. I apologized for the long wait and one guy said no problem he was beating his high score in a game😂
I've had this happen many times in the past. Typically it's one of those oversized vans with a bunch of college kids.
Which irritates me to no end. Often times I need to go through a McDonald’s drive through for breakfast, since they are meant *most* of the time to get customers in and out quickly, but occasionally there are those who order takes so much time, both for them to order, and for them to pick up. If they are going to take so much time in a drive through, why not get up early and eat at home?
I used to work fast food and usually they'd let us know that they have a huge order, or would call it in ahead of time. Sometimes though, they'd order multiple meals and hope to be out in the same time as someone just ordering a soda
@@ChristophBrinkmann Do they even think on how little sense that makes? People like that frustrates me the most, especially when I have to get breakfast on the go, some idiot(s) orders for *basically* an army's worth of food, only to have people behind me honk at me as if I'm the one holding up the line, and not the idiot ordering food enough to feed a small town.
''It´s a cat, they like to be pet'' My man never had a cat in his whole life
So a couple of things on story 3:
Unfortunately, there are a few influencers who do own exotic cats, including servals, which this girl might have seen and assumed all small wildcats are like. Like I remember one was even selling plushies of their Serval. Then you also have Bengal cats which are a domesticated cat mixed with a small wildcat and are actually legal in several states. So for young children the line is getting blurred And I'm not saying no one should ever own an exotic pets. I own reptiles, I'd be a hypocrite if I said that but certain exotic pets should not be treated like domesticated cats and dogs.
There's even a big cat rescue about an hour away from where I live and they got a serval because it was on their front porch with a note going "I thought I could love the feralness out of him but I can't" So people have attempted this after being influenced by social media. They also have a bobcat who just never left the rehabilitation program and decided they wanted to stay there so some animals want to be domesticated I guess.
On the never note, it kinda of reminds me of a story from my mother's childhood when she still lives in South Africa. A Japanese family went for a drive-thru Safari and got out of their car to take pictures with the Lions. People argue that there should be more signs in different languages to stop this from happening and others argued "Its a f****** lion"
Most of those "influencers" don't even own those exotic animals and expensive cars. Instead, they rent them from a company. Most of what you see on "social media" is a carefully crafted lie.
I was in college and worked for Burger King for 7 years while working on my Masters in history. I've had change thrown at me, whole combos thrown at me, nearly spit at, screamed at, was called re**ta***ed, for the stupidest tiniest reasons ever: forgetting a dollar change, forgetting maybe one or two fries if we're in a rush, asking a customer in a drive-thru to pull up for a large order only to be met with rudeness, yelled at for not having a specific toy even though we have no control over it through our deliveries, refusing to honor coupons that are a year expired, refusing to give out free food from a previous day receipt claiming that the order was wrong even though it was a different shift. I have so many stories that are worthy of reddit lol.
I've only ever cried on the job once and it was when I thought my dog was dying at the vet. Never cried for the job itself Even though it was tough and mentally taxing. When I tell you I needed the job I needed it. It was during the first recession in 2008 and there was no time to be picky.
I hit my patience point finally when a racist customer was upset that I was speaking Spanish to the workers in the kitchen (who duh only spoke Spanish) so I can make sure they got a correction on an order that was entered. The lady went on a tirade about how this is America and English is the official language blah blah blah, And me being a history major told her: The United States, does not in fact have an official language. As a matter of fact the primary languages spoken here the most is Spanish and English thanks to colonization. Among other languages as well obviously. The lady tried to cut me off but I kept going until the manager finally had time to come out. I told him what happened of course And I said it's fine if I get reprimanded because I already had another job lined up after I finally graduated college which they already got my one month notice for.
To my manager's credit, after hearing what the woman said to us and the other Latino staff, he refunded her money and told her racism is not tolerated here. The lady looked at us speechless then looked at the other customers seeing if anyone was on her side and low and behold most of the customers were either of Latino descent, black, and people with obvious good morals.
Speaking of morals, The moral of this story is, Please think about the people working behind the counters are in the kitchen and don't be an a***hole. We are human too.
No, it wasn't a bad day. She deliberately walked into a BBQ place to try to intimidate the owner into becoming vegan. Good for the owner for not licking that Karen's backside.
Story 3, my brother when he was eight opened our front door and their was a cat their, now our house is cat central there's usually between 3-5 cats on average going in and out of our property every day. So, we weren't scared of the cats and enjoyed watching them, my brother decided to pet the cat. It scratched his hand, it didn't even do any damage, no bleeding or anything but that attack traumatized my brother, for three years he refused to get near any cats, even family (aunt/uncles cats) unless he had no choice and another year before he felt safe petting them.
I didn't know people can develop ailurophobia from a scratch.
@@JamesDavy2009 He was an 8 year kid who wanted to pet the "friendly kitty" which to him turned into an aggressive monster. Of course the experience scared him.
As a vegetarian, the only reason why I'll be going to a barbecue restaurant would be to grab something for my man and/or my family
Maybe barbecue corn, but even corn, unless they had that vegan butter thing from veggie oil (which I doubt) they woildn't be able to have
years ago I had a friend who hung out at the same bar I did. Once there was a litter of kittens that had been born under the back stairs. Some idiot apparently gave them acid. She adopted one of them but found out that it might seem friendly but if you tried to pet it it would turn on you, snarl and try to call you. She let she had to care for it as she had taken it in. One day I visited her. We had been out and gotten some wonderful coffee from a little place in North Beach. We made the coffee and sat drinking it. I sat on the floor, near the cat. I di not even look at it or put my hands near it but tried to be vary calm and non threatening. Later the cat was napping in a basket in her bedroom. I slowly moved over to it, and began softly petting it. It did not growl or claw me, but just dat there letting me pet it. She told me her roommates would never believe her iwun she told them.
Story 4: "How dare you disrespect me and my daughter!!??"
Me: "You are confused. Your daughter is just fine, but you deserve more disrespect than I have time to give."
Story 1: if you have dietary restrictions whether by choice or not, don’t go to a restaurant that can’t cater to them. I had a vegan friend back in college. Whenever his work or friends went out he checked the menu to make sure he could eat there. He later decided he could make a vegetarian exception to restaurants just to make things easier. I used to date a Jewish guy who ate kosher. He specifically stayed away from Mexican restaurants for obvious reasons.
Story 2: it’s one thing to claim you know the owner when you kinda sorta don’t. It’s another to claim you have an appointment when you never made one. I know nowadays most medical offices email or text you an appointment reminder.
Story 3: had the caracal bit or scratched the daughter the dad would have sued. Last month I found a stray kitten in my garage. I tried to catch it but no luck. Feeling sorry for it I fed it. I called animal control to see if they could trap it or at least give me the name of a rescue. When I told the animal control officer on the phone that it kept running away from me he told me to just let it go. Due to it being feral I could get injured and that would have bad consequences for me. I reluctantly stopped feeding it and left my garage open a crack. It left a few days later.
Story 4: just like how you don’t pet a dog without asking, you don’t just ride a random horse without asking. I don’t know the behavior of OP’s horse but it could only like OP or it likes certain methods. I once owned a well behaved Great Dane that was also a therapy dog. I constantly took to my local outdoor mall. It got a lot of pets and pictures. She was 3’ tall at the withers. She weighed about 150lbs, mostly muscle. I was 5’4” 150lbs at the time, wasn’t very muscular. Once a guy wanted to take a picture with my dog and his son. He tried to grab her leash because he didn’t want me in the picture. I told him he is not trained to handle her, I am. She will not listen to him. He insisted that he was stronger than me so if I could handle her, so could he. I told him it doesn’t matter, she only listens to me and he is not trained. Luckily his wife yells at him that he doesn’t know how to handle dogs and to just get in the picture before their son ruins it. Their son was crying because such a huge dog was scaring him. As they walked away I over heard his wife scolding him that it takes special training to handle a dog that huge, that’s why my tiny self could. Had he tried to hold my dog’s leash she would have probably dragged him across the sidewalk.
Story 5: when you have a large order it’s going to take some time. I work for a retail drug store chain. If a photo order is huge I usually say how long. If a customer doesn’t like the wait I usually break it down. If they still don’t like it I tell them they are more than welcome to try somewhere else. Personally I like fast food places that give away stickers and activity sets. My 4 year old gets just as much enjoyment out of them. After a few days he forgets about them and they’re so messed up anyway I can just throw them away. I probably have 2 or 3 30gallon storage boxes full of fast food and cereal toys from my childhood. Do I play with them? No. But they aren’t broken so I feel bad about throwing them out.
They might be worth something as some people collect vintage fast food collectables. Check it out online.
Story 3 - I’m from Montana and we have wild buffalo and deer here. A lot of people think that buffalos are just big fluffy cows and are completely harmless, same with deer, newsflash… THEY’RE NOT! I’ve seen numerous reports and videos of people wanting to approach the buffalo to try and pet the babies and to get a picture with them only to be attacked by the Mama Buffalo and nearly get killed. People are so… yeah.
People don't realize that the typical prey animals (deer, elk, buffalo) are more dangerous than the predators in the wild. All because they are constantly on high alert for said predators.
@@aaronabbey2604 Yes! And those prey animals KNOW humans are predators!! Don't think for a moment they don't!
Vegan BBQ story: Yeah, some of the vegans are totally ridiculous. Remember when Burger King brought out their "Impossible Whopper" vegan burger? They didn't install separate broilers to cook them in, just used the same ones the regular burgers are cooked with. So I guess the actual meat, juices and grease leftover doesn't affect the vegan burgers at all.
Chiropractic appointment story: Hey Karen, maybe you might want to ACTUALLY make an appointment before just showing up.
Zoo story: Good grief!!! Even a feral housecat can mess a person up royally, let alone an actual wild feline of any kind. The caracal is close in size to a bobcat, which you would think would tell people that it's not a house pet.
Pony story: Yeah, most stables that provide riding lessons also put up horses/ponies that are privately owned in order to make ends meet. But either the trainer erred in not pointing out sooner that students only had access to certain animals or was just completely ignored.
No toys story: People refuse to believe anything that doesn't fit their ideas of "what should be". I hope that they took Karen's picture from the CCTV so they could ban her if she ever showed up again.
You can take an animal out of the wild, but you can't take the wild out of the animal. Kitty, indeed!!
The moral of story 5: don't be nice (voucher for free meal) to people simply because they're total a-holes; they'll take that as weakness and just keep misbehaving.
How does it go? How can you tell someone is vegan? They tell you.
Story 1- if you’re vegan, do yourself a favor, have a steak and stop bothering the world around you.
Seriously though, why would a vegan even set foot into a BBQ place?
Sometimes i dunno why people do that…
I’m a vegan and wouldn’t set foot in a restaurant before looking up the menu. The lady was ridiculous and gives vegans a bad rep. It’s like going to a candy store and asking for kale
@@VerdarJei1396 My point exactly
I know there are BBQ places with vegan and vegetarian options, but yeah, not something people should expect.
It's ok to ask... politely. It's not ok to "demand"! Change restaurant or find a less attractive accomodation.
I think story 2 was the first time that the Karen actually knew the owner
Story 3: Dad would have gotten the comment, "You authorize your child to pet the "kitty" and you're not only assuming responsibility, including financial, and you will forever be known as the man whose daughter's nickname is "Meow Mix."
Story 5 "Oh, your children are starving? I'll call CPS and tell them you're neglecting them by not feeding them before 11:00 at night and allowing them to starve. Now, if you want to back that back out and act like a responsible mother and not be a shrew, I can have your 12 meals out to you in 10 minutes." After the racist rant, all bets are off, the cops are called, and CPS would be called as well.
But, then again, I"m too old to put up with Karens and their entitled behavior.
Story 1, i got french fries, and salad. Take your pick
I used to work for Olive Garden a long time back. Had a customer come in with a severe gluten intolerance?! We had to heavily clean the entire restaurant to accommodate this person and cook her food she brought in. Putting all other customers back. I get having such an issue can be difficult, but don't go to the place that doesn't serve what you want nor a place that serves what you are allergic to!
Last story: Good thing for Karen that didn't happen anywhere in the UK. There, it's considered hate speech, which is a crime and can carry jail time.
Stroy 1: I don't understand why the other customers didn't speak up. Here in Bavaria this woman would get a shitstrom by the other customers within a minute. "Jetzt hoit'st dei fotzn und schau'st dass 'd weida kummst, du zammzupfte Amsel, bevor I da ane betonier', dass 'd drei Dag Schua brauchst zum bremsen..." And then most probably got forcefully removed from the place, again by the customers. And NO. If no real harm is done (broken bones, dripping blood) neither the cops nor the court would care about it.
The closest to vegan BBQ that I can think of is grilled kabobs and corn on the cob. 🤷🏻♀️
Marinated big portobello mushrooms are a fantastic bbq item and paired with an impossible burger or even the black bean burgers by Morning Star are tasty.
I'm a big old omnivore but I love most veggies as much as meat and I'm not super fussy unless it Has too much soy or chickpeas as I do have a bit of a time digesting them. If I remember to bring beano food enzymes to take with it, I can eat more, tho it's just a digesting issue.
Another fun item is big baked potatoes. They can be wrapped in foil and dropped in the coals or rotated on the grill to cook, too. And those one bacon bits (bacos?) Are actually soy lol so you can get those for your taters and some veggie shreds for the cheese. Top the taters with grilled onions and mushrooms really yummy, too
Another fun thing is bring tortillas and grill up some sweet bell peppers onions mushrooms and firm deep fried tofu that's been marinated in taco seasoning.
Fill a tortillas and top with salsa and good guacamole and you got some great bbq tacos
Oh I forgot. Grilled jack fruit in bbq sauce is darn near like pulled pork. Even my meat loving hubby ate several at a buffet and told everyone how great they were lol.
I've seen recipes for BBQ jackfruit as a replacement for pulled pork in sandwiches and tacos, but of all the BBQ places I've been, only one has offered it.
Even those can't be Vegan as you would need a separate grill that not had meat grilled on it to qualify as Vegan.
I've heard some people grill eggplant or zucchini and throw bbq sauce on it. Idk if the sauce is vegan, it might only work for vegetarians. But then you just ask for no sauce and it's vegan right? 😅
Whenever a customer asked me "You think I'm an idiot!?" all I could think was "I don't think so, you simply are one."
Chiropractor story, it's like this woman basically was saying yes I met you at a party last week so based upon my word you should fire your entire staff who have probably been with you for 5 years or more! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Story 1: 1. They're not paying customers as they hadn't paid for anything. 2. If people like her are what I'd expect of her group, I wouldn't want to cater to them anyway.
Re: cat bite...many year ago, while working in the out-patient Internal Medicine department of a major Cleveland, Ohio, medical facility, i received a phone call from my best friend. Cindy had a cat that was indoor/outdoor. Earlier that day, she went to pick him up to bring him inside as she was leaving for an overnight stay at another friend's, and the little b****rd bit her just like the lady in the OP's story - sinking his right through the meat of her thumb. I gave her directions on how to get to us, where to park, and where the department I worked in was located. In the 45-60 minutes it took for the bite to happen, her phone call to me, me corraling one of the Staff docs to add her onto his schedule (honestly, all i had to say was "Cat bite. Best friend" to my favorite doc, and he said "Absolutely!") and Cindy to arrive, her hand was the size of a softball and had the telltale red streaks up her arm.
BOOM! They got a bed, i threw her butt in a wheelchair and took her straight to the hospital room, telling the nursing staff there to ask someone crom Admitting come directly to the room.
I will also tell you that my friend is NOT a small person - she's about 5'9" and packed maybe an extra 30# of muscle, as she shows jumpers. She also has a morbid fear of needles, so when she was approached with an IV needle, well, it was a circus. Picture if you will me (a 5'10" woman weighing much more than I should, having to climb onto the bed to simultaneously lie full-length on her and try to turn her head AWAY from seeing the needle. She was so afraid and so rigid that the needle popped out of her before it could be taped in place. Nurs3s were holding down her legs. Despite my full weight on her, she STILL managed to scootch herself (and me) nearly off the head of the bed, teeth chattering in abject fear.. Once the needle was in, she calmed down almost immediately.
As I'm typing this out, 40 years later, I strongly suspect they hit her with a sedagive (iykyk) to calm her.
I called my boss to clock me out and to let her know that I wouldn't be back for the rest of the day and possibly not the next until I knew for sure she was going to be okay.
She was in-house for 2 days on an IV antibiotic drip, running wide open for the first day.
The comment in response to the "kitties" at the zoo was exactly the kind of thing I wanted to point out. To be fair to the lady in the commenters story though, that domestic cat didn't sound like they were putting off any signs of aggression, so people who haven't worked with rescue cats may not have known the body language for "no more touch", the cat might have been a bad communicator, & most people don't know to never try petting an unknown cat from above them, which takes practice as you are having to read a lot of body language & also keep eye on your environment so that nothing falls/spills/moves, ect. that would spook the cat or even you, then the cat! Honestly, even previous rescuers (myself included) have forgotten not to offer our hand from above, though waiting for the cat to approach you isn't as easily forgotten. A kitten play fighting or even the sweetest cat being put in a scary situation, especially if on drugs or hurt, could also lead to hard cat bites.
I initially thought her story was going to be about someone thinking a bobcat kitten was a stray kitten or something! Been done often with coyotes, too!
How did the Dad in the Zoo story not get arrested for child endangerment? He straight up confessed to the crime when he complained to management right?
Cat story, back in the early 70's I was stationed in Thailand and picked up a very young kitten and it bit all the way through my thumb at the nail.
As someone who has worked at a zoo and petting area...people...just...are... idiots.
Story 4: “That’s My Horse” from Ed, Edd, ‘n’ Eddy plays
The BBQ Karen I would've likely said we have a side salad that we can dump some BBQ sauce on since you want something BBQed.😂
I mean seriously that's like going into a vegan restaurant demanding a T-bone steak and complaining when they don't have that🤦🏻♀️
The first story: I CANNOT stand people who walk into a place of business and expect to be treated like they're royalty just because they graced the employees with their presence. I would have flat out told the woman to get the hell out and to not let the door hit her in her back side. Had she threatened to write a review, I would have reported that I would be sure to look for the one with all the misspellings and poor grammar. Had she persisted, I would have told her to go graze on the front lawn with the rest of the cows.
Story 3: Does that dad not understand the Ghost of Harambe is still reaping vengeance? Does he want another zoo ghost making things worse?
I remember my hand was bitten by cat, i just want to pet him but it turns out he was angry because my friend annoy him, i can feel his fangs grind on my bone. Man it was painful and the infection afterwards was not fun
When I was a child in the 1970s our local zoo aquired a polar bear cub that had been orphaned by a hunter. I lived next door to the zookeeper that was in charge of the bears etc. I was able to bottle feed "Binky" for a couple of weeks until he grew too big to safely do so. Fast forward 20 years and I am visiting the zoo one day (1995 ish) and this tourist from Australia wants a picture of Binky and as he was napping in the sun he didn't look at the camera like she wanted. This lady climbed over 2 fences 4 feet apart and then leaned throught the bars of the enclosure. Binky was still laying in the sun when she picked up a rock and bounced it off of Binky's backside. This pissed him off and the tourist got mauled pretty badly. Since I was there and had interacted with the bear for many years the bear let go of her when I gave him the command that was used to call him to his shelter for treats. This allowed the zoo staff to remove her from the cage and call an ambulance. I still have the picture I took of Binky sticking his nose through the bars of his cage with her high top sneaker in his mouth. We sent the photo to the local newspaper with the caption "Hey lady. You forgot something." Every time I went back to the zoo Binky would come to the cage front when he heard me calling his name. There was another incident about 6 weeks later where a drunk teenager decided that it would be a great idea to dreak into the zoo after it closed and take a swim in the polar bear's pool. This kid ended up losing part of his leg as it was damaged too badly for the surgeon to repair. Sadly Binky died of old age about 10 years later and the zoo now has another polar bear named "Nanook" and a brown bear named "Oreo" sharing the enclosure.
Last story Karen: • in Al Bundy voice• allow me to introduce you to our deep fat fryer...
Every time one of these customer service nightmare stories comes up anywhere i praise the patience of those people. I for one wouldn't be able to stop snarking almost immediately.
I always find these stories were the Karen is like “your fired right now” to be hilarious, I mean really? They can’t fire someone on the spot because they need to hire a replacement and train said replacement. If they did what the Karen demanded they’d be out of business.
The 3 story hey dad why don’t you let your daughter pet the lions they are bigger kitties and would love to eat, I mean meet your daughter.
You know, I kind of pity Karens. Going through life completely unaware of why people don't like you, not knowing that the vast majority of your problems are self inflicted, and not having a shred of self-awareness. It's sad, really.
Story 3: How dare you prevent me & my child from speedrunning life. Get me your manager!
Story 5: Wasn't sure about the restaurant until they mentioned lemonade, I bet it's Raising Cane's
Vegetarian who knows that a BBQ restaurant won't have much for me
Story 5: Honestly they should start a case for getting her banned. To be this condescending and abusive to people just trying to do their jobs, destroying the peace for other customers and making blatant racist comments is not something their business needs. And she'd probably go back to start something just because she could. And what did she need all that food for anyway? Twelve combos? I'm sure she did not have twelve people in the car or waiting at home. I mean unless she planned to pass it off as her own cooking (don't judge, I just watched Mrs. Doubtfire recently) I just can't fathom it.
Also, the Steamed Hams segment from _The Simpsons._ I may be an ignorant non-Yank, but isn't the N-word one of the few things not protected by 1A?
Before OP even said anything about the lemonade, I already knew which restaurant chain they work at cuz I started at the same one a couple months ago. And if it really is the same one, the Caniac is 6 chicken fingers, a big handful of fries, and Texas toast all made to order along with the other items which are generally prepped beforehand. So there's not hundreds of damn chicken fingers sitting around to make that big of an order so yeah, giving it 15 minutes to make all of it is honestly really fast. All the fryers would be running and they'd have new food dropped in at the exact moment the cooked stuff comes up.
What chain restaurant was that story taking place in actually, I actually don’t know which one and am a bit curious about it now
"Petted" is a word, people!
When I was younger, here in Australia, sometimes they would have a ‘cheetah walk’ in one of the Zoos. Yes the cheetah was domesticated, still you would have to be careful. However, one day I saw a young child pulling the cheetah’s tail to which the zoo attendant told the child not to pull the cheetah’s tail. Parent went ballistic and told the zoo attendant off. Suffice to say, the whole family was ejected from the zoo and was banned from returning because of their behaviour behaviour.
So that father wanted his child to be allowed to pet a wild cat that is basically a feral cat on steroids dialed up to 11 wonderful parenting there.
story 1, the two owners being friends is actually cool
I know a lot of people who are vegetarian and get sick if they eat too much meat. I also know people who are meat eaters who get sick if they only eat plants. It's actually a physiological fact. So eat what you need to eat to stay healthy 😉
Story 3: I have a scar on my left forearm where MY OWN CAT bit the everloving hell out of me. My two cats were fighting, and I tried to intervene and picked one up to get him out of the room and CHOMP. All the way into the muscle. And I blood-dripped myself, still holding the cat, into the other room and detached him.
Next day I'd already had an appointment for a checkup anyway, so I asked the doctor for a tetanus shot and some antibiotics. Still have the scar, and still have the cats, but now I just spray them with a water bottle if they fight.
So yeah, if my own cat who loves me and who sleeps on the bed next to me could do that, random wildcat (or even feral cat) who doesn't like your face will do way, way worse.
"I'm a paying customer"
Well, no, you're not, you're an annoying person blocking customers because you don't like what we offer ^^
they never learn but that's the fun part of these stories.
I am a life time horseman! Raised on a working cattle ranch, my dad had me on a horse at age 5! I'm now 83 and still ride! I was taught from day one that my horse came first! The quickest way I know to get on my bad side is mess with my horse! Fortunately, I have never had to keep my horses at a stable, but if I found someone messing with any of my horses without my permission or prior knowledge there would be hell to pay!
On the zoo story, I would have called both security and the police. This is a clear case of child endangerment.
Cat story. Don't be down with OPP. I was in the 90s child
The things you hear when you don't have a shotgun loaded with bean-bag rounds handy....
12:00 "she just wants to pet the kitties"
"Well those 'kitties' will remove her arm given the chance, move her NOW"
People expect fast food to be instantaneous, like if it's not in their hands within three seconds of ordering they start screeching. Fast food is just faster than full service restaurants. Yeah if you order just a burger in an otherwise empty place and it's already been ten minutes then something has gone wrong. But when you order a large amount, even if every single item is already cooked, it'll still take time to assemble and wrap up everything. Because guaranteed if the wrapping is sloppy they'll screech about that instead.
That witch 🧙♀️ was looking for free food!
Happy 5th everyone, I hope everyone is well and still has all their fingers after the fireworks.
BUYING THE PONY OP needs to have a serious talk with the trainer and/or the stable owner about how these people could get access to OP's horse. If they had the horse out and were grooming it, they would have had time to walk off with it. If the horse loads in a trailer well, it would have been easy to take the pony, load it in the trailer, and be gone in the time it took to get the horse out of the stall, get the tack, and start grooming.
That last story reminds me of a customer from a job in college. Showed up 15 minutes before we closed, which wasn't too big a deal, since we closed at 11pm abd were basically the only place in town open after 9. He ordered something like 35 pizzas. Hit the roof when the manager said, "sure, we can do that, but since we've shut down one of our lines and I only have one cook, it's going to take about 30 minutes."
"30 minutes! You're supposed to have pizza ready to carry out! That's false advertising! I need them NOW!"
"I'm sorry, sir. If the wait time isn't acceptable, I can understand if you'd rather go somewhere else "
"What? Everywhere is closed! You're the only food place open this late!"
...
...
...
"So we'll have that out for you in 30 minutes?"
I'm vegetarian and know it's hard to find restaurant food without meat. But I check out the menu BEFORE I go to out. And why the heck would she go to a BBQ restaurant? What did she expect?
Foresight is not a skill the typical Karen utilises.
They should take a Snapchat off that video and post it where everyone can see it with a DO NOT SERVE sticker or note. A lot of establishments do have these. Even if she never comes back in, there will probably be people who DO know her and will call her on it
Story #4:
The mother probably assumed that all the horses in the stable were automatically the property of the stable, and therefore available to every member. And when she said she was going to buy him, she meant "buy him from the stable".
Her Karen-ness only really kicked in when OP told her that this is his horse, and she didn't realize that means he's the actual owner.
When she pointedly repeated: "We ARE going to buy him," she probably meant that as a taunt, as in: "then you won't be allowed to ride him anymore, because he'll be ours!"
Again, she didn't realize that OP was the owner, and she'd have to buy the horse FROM HIM.
And, of course, she can't buy the horse at all, if OP refuses to sell it.
She was not only unable to ACCEPT that she was wrong.
Apparently she was even unable to COMPREHEND that she was wrong.
Oh, and if she assumed that all the horses were the stable's property, was she planning on taking the horse home with her after buying it?
Because, obviously she thought that other people's horses could not possibly stay in the stable.
Happy Friday everyone, hope you all have a great weekend!!
Why do all these Karen’s and Kens think they are so important that they can demand an employee e fired
Karen: Where's my 12 combos, you are taking forever, my kid is starving, do you want my kid to starve, why are they getting their meal first, I demand you make my bulky buffet of food quicker, my kid is starving! Did you hear me? You are starving my kid!!!
Also Karen: You call this a kid's toy, (spends several minutes complaining about a puzzle while her kid starves in her car.)
Story 4: Ponies do not grow up to be horses.
It's like wanting a Chihuahua to grow into a collie.
Story 1: "OK, ma'am, I'm pretty sure the brisket was vegan, the chicken definitely wasn't, and I won't vouch for the pork either way."
Just imagine what would have happened to that child if the animal decided to do more than hiss or growl at the arm. The Karen would be trying to sue the zoo saying there was not enough warning signs, that the animals are dangerous and the zoo shouldn't have them, and there should have been more things in place to keep the animals contained so they couldn't hurt visitors. I'm not familiar with the animals in question but if there is a fence in front of an enclosure I know to stay on the visitor side of it.
"DO YOU THINK I'M STUPID?"
- Yes.
Their new slogan: *insert name of BBQ restaurant* "Come for the brisket, stay for the owner verbally pimp-slapping entitled vegans"
Story 1. If it was me I'd say to the other restaurants owner "SOMETHING WICKED YOUR WAY COMES"
Vegan BBQ? Next time, she'll enter Gamestop and ask for an oil change.
Story 4: Before she left - OP should have demanded EP's car keys. So that she could go and test drive it, because she was going to buy it...
First story: She demanded a vegan menu, at a BBQ restaurant. What's next, she's going to demand a pizza and spaguetti at McDonald's?
Considering that McDonalds dabbled with those once in the past, a better sarcastic question would be demanding sushi at a Mexican restaurant, fast food or otherwise.
@@whitewolf3051 I didn't know that.
Last story
I worked at a mcd's where we were on the last day of a popular toy promotion and had been out of those toys and boxes for over a week
A Mega Karen demanded to know why the kids meal wasn't in a box and I told her we had been out of boxes and the toys for over a week.
She demanded I call the other locations to find not only one of the toys but a specific one and flipped out when I said no
When she called our franchise office the next day she was told that she was not welcome in any of the company restaurants
