The thing with the mcdonalds case is that they were knowingly serving coffee that was legitimately too hot. They handed her a coffee cup with a lid that wasnt fully secured. So when it spilled, it burned her skin, specifically in her private area and gave her 3rd degree burns.
The temperature of the coffee when they were serving it was almost 200 F (90 C) , she got 3rd degree burns over most of her thighs (her legs were literally fused together when she got to the hospital) , and in the lawsuit she ONLY asked for her medical bills be paid for, but the McDonalds lawyers REFUSED to budge from a REDICULOUSLY small $800 settlement
Not to mention she just wanted them to help pay her hospital bills
Also, people assume she was handling it recklessly while driving, but she was in the passenger seat of a parked car when it spilled.
3rd degree means there's no skin left on the contact point. I don't think 90 celsius water is enough causing it. Water needs 100 celsius degrees to boil.
@@Resegy "Hot enough to boil" and "hot enough to cause 3rd degree burns" are two different things. Even water as low in temperature as 50 degrees Celsius can cause 3rd degree burns if the skin is left exposed to it for a few minutes.
*pours coffee into the sun*
Karen: it’s cold
McDonald's one is a poor example, the woman was elderly and the coffee caused her burns on her lap. We are all told this as the customer was entitled or was in the wrong. Remember McDonald's have the money for lawyers and lost they were clearly in the wrong never loose sight of that in that story
Yes she only wanted enough to cover her injuries
I'm curious if there is a less well known case that gets confused or conflated with this one.
@@tylerian4648 Nope, just a very thorough smear campaign from McDonald's trying to make her look like a dumb Karen
Yeah she only wanted for McDonald’s to pay for her clit being burnt together which was like 20,000 dollars (McDonald is a multibillion dollar industry)
@@tylerian4648 no its the lawyers smear campaign being very effective
she wanted that coffee so hot that she could melt the earth, thats her plan..
i wonder what her villian backstory was
Maybe she wanted to melt the bank's vault door with the coffee
McDonald's coffee lady is actually a pretty intense story apparently she even had to go to the hospital to get reconstructive surgery for her legs and genitalia. And McDonald's just tried to send her a coupon and some money and she really wanted was for them to cover her medical bills that's all but they forced her to go to court. They dragged her name through the mud afterwards to try and stop people from doing it again and what's worse was she was a little old lady so imagine that was your grandma would you let McDonald's do that to your Grammy. Roommate one was an idiot simple as that first of all your banging your roommate's boyfriend that's messed up and second if just kept her mouth shut and didn't call her parents nobody would have found out because the OP didn't even know who the boyfriend was
Yeah when you hear the actual story behind the McDonald's coffee. It is insane that McDonald's seemed to not care let alone have overly hot coffee. So yeah it was more about the medical bills than anything. It did bring awareness that McDonald's coffee was insanely hot and needed to stop being that hot.
@@TheDarkLink7 yes exactly, even McDonald's employees went on the record saying that their coffee with a temperatures that were to or above the boiling point. It really was a tragedy
You should have made it BOILING HOT that it BOILS Its Esophagus to what... 2 degree burn in the Esophagus? LOL
That will make this Karen not come to this Shop for a while
@@tiefblau2780 no.. They're talking about the similar case that Am I the jerk brought up, an old lady just asked for coffee and it came out overly hot and she got 3rd degree burns.
@watchmyvideoforcovidtruth3739 no.. They're talking about the similar case that Am I the jerk brought up, an old lady just asked for coffee and it came out overly hot and she got 3rd degree burns.
And wanting someone to go to this because she just wanted her damn coffee somehow hotter is insane, you need therapy.
Story 3: not the jerk, you were acting as your daughter's mom, not her landlord. Additionally, you had her explicit permission to enter their apartment
Bingo. Exactly what I was going to say
I do agree she's not the jerk. My opinion is that even though she is the mother she is also a landlord to two other girls. I was under the she was the jerk until it was revealed the daughter did tell her roommates.
The first story is so common in Australia: particularly among the baby boomer generation. I've soaked the cup in boiling water for a minute or so, then made the coffee. At which point, it is "perfect" then approximately 27-30 napkins are wrapped around the coffee cup because it is too hot to pick up. This way you can slowly sip on the coffee for the next 80-90 minutes.
Story 4: Sounds more like OP was insecure in her relationship with her husband and didn't want another woman "tempting" him by wearing tight clothing.
probs
I actualy read that story lol she got destryed in the replies
lol
She is insecured af
@@wowgek7 yea not every story is nice… some are funny some are just bizarre and some are just sad…
That McDonald’s case was justified you don’t shouldn’t include that. It was an elderly women who got three degree burn all over her legs and private area. She didn’t even wanna sue, she just wanted McDonald’s to cover her medical bills but they refused and made her sue. She wasn’t the only case, at the time McDonald’s had like 100+ incidents where their coffee was too hot and burned people
Yeah I agree however if she was acting a fool spill it on herself, that would be her fault
They aappealed when they lost because they didn't want a class action lawsuit. All those incidents would make it one.
@@trugear5766 you shouldn't get 3rd degree burns from an accident, she's not a fool unless she did it on purpose
I absolutely loved the bank story!! I currently am as CSR with a major insurance provider and we get these kinda folks that are out to ruin our day. If there is a opportunity for the malicious compliance, yeah we're all over it.
NO ONE deserves to be treating like dirt at work trying to help someone else.
13:20 "Roommate two mad the mistake of leaving her boyfriend in the living room."
Savage.
To be fair, the McDonald's lawsuit wasn't even really about the coffee, they WERE selling it to hot thinking it wouldn't taste right otherwise and she sued for HOSPITAL BILLS as she was an elderly lady
Ya her legs and labia where fused together cus of how hot they made their coffee
That last story was stellar!! I hope they're both doing very well!! And never lose the love and companionship!❣️
So happy for the siblings in the last story. It is so sad that you can’t rely on your parents, but so glad they had and have each other. My mom and dad were in a car accident when I was 6, my mom died and my dad was a closed head injury, who was in the hospital for about two years. We were blessed to have aunts and uncles care enough to help watch over us. There were 6 of us kids.
I am so very sorry for the loss of your mom, Diane. My dad passed away at 43 and left my 39 year old mother a widow with 7 kids. We lived in the country (no red lights, just a small store, gas station, bar and lots of farms) and I remember the man who owned the store coming to our house with bags and boxes of food for us (I was 10). That man made an impact on my life that he never imagined. Many years later I sent him a Christmas card with a photo of my children and a letter explaining the difference he made in my life. When he saw one of my brothers he told him the letter made him cry and he didn’t even remember bringing all that food. Twenty five years later another brother passed away unexpectedly and this man, John, came to the wake. I knew him right away and introduced him to my now-grown “kids”. All their lives they knew we all had to give back to our community in some fashion and were glad to meet the man I always spoke so highly of. Whether you have money or not, there’s always some way you can give to your community.
@@maggiebaxter610 it’s amazing how someone can have an impact on your life and sometimes they don’t even know how important to you they were. I was always so much more respectful to my friends’ moms then they were to their own mom because I knew what it was to live without my mom. Thank you for sharing your story, it means a lot. ❤️
Dude, your Karen impression in the beginning is so on point, I nearly fell on the floor from laughter.
What you left out of the McDonald's case is that where the coffee spilled on her, which was her thighs and groin gave her third degree burns. Her skin melted off, and she needed skin grafting and 16% of her body was considered burned.
The temperature coffee or any liquid needs to be in order to cause instant third degree burns is 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Mcdonald's was known to keep their coffee at a temperature of 190 degrees and ignored hundreds of reports of coffee burns before this woman spilled the coffee on her.
Rogarding the McDonald's lawsuit...that woman had third degree burns on her lady parts from that coffee.
The fact he ruined his life over 30 Dollars makes this funny
I love the voice you do for the Karen. It fits so perfectly
Her daughter was meditating when the roommates were fighting? 😂
Trying to avoid those vibes
I think I read the OP, and I believe it was mediating rather than meditating
story 4: the OP definitely does not trust her husband but she spun the story a completely different way. This is why I never take these stories at face value, specifically the (he said/she said) ones. Most of the time if the story starts with "My SO did this" I usually assume the OP did something as well but just did not mention it.
For story 3: Not a jerk at al. You got permission, the roommates were told, all is good.
For story 4: Sweat pants, leggings, etc. are fine for nannying. The only person staring is the person hiring, not her husband or 5-year old son. If you want people dressed better, send your kids to a daycare where they have a dress code like the one you want or put the dress code in the requirements before the interview.
ya
The ores that my work, they all dress in. Leggings
I had a somewhat similar experience as the last story, but it wasn't as intense. I grew up with divorced parents, and I also had developmental issues. My counsilers would constantly say that I would never be able to hold down a job and live on my own, and my mom would always treat me as if I was a burden. If she was picking me up for the weekend, I had to be out that door as soon as she pulled up in the driveway, otherwise I'd get an earful about keeping her waiting. She'd make so many comments that implied I was a burden to her and everyone else around me. On the other hand, my dad always encouraged me to be better than what was expected of me. He encouraged me to work hard, and do my best, even when everyone else told me I couldn't do something. Because of this, I grew up believing that I was a burden if I asked anyone for help, and that I had to do everything on my own to make sure I didn't put that burden on anyone, and to show that my dad was right about me being capable of taking care of myself. This got to the point where I wouldn't ask for help, even when I needed it. Eventually, I was able to get a job at Steak n Shake, and started making enough to be able to afford a small apartment and move out. I couldn't afford a car, just barely the apartment and food, but work was only a 20 minute walk away from home, so I did that. Even in the rain or snow, I would walk. My co-workers would sometimes offer to give me rides, but it was a fight at first to get me to accept the help. After a while of them insisting on trying to help me, they were able to show me that I wasn't a burden, and that I was allowed to accept help when needed. Eventually, I was able to even bring myself to ask people for rides, if I knew it wasn't out of the way and the weather was bad. I still make sure to watch myself, because I don't want to let myself become an entitled Karen who expects everyone to bend over backwards to do me favors, but I can at least ask people for favors now if I don't think it will be an issue for them.
Karen just wants the steam of the coffee and not the liquid caffeine it’s self.
She thought she was having steamed clams.
@@ninjabluefyre3815 Oh ho ho nooo, she was having steamed *hams*
Last time I was this early my dad brought milk home 😭
SAME MAN.. SAME 😭😭😭
I like how story 2 didn't even get commentary, we all know who the jerk was.
omg the thumbnail had me on the floor in seconds!
Great voice work!
She was probably trying to have a reason to sue
the last one made me feel good
Story 4 is definetly a crazy mom who expects Mary poppins to come work for minimum wage😂
That story is hilarious
Story 1: That Karen either can't sense heat at all, or was trying to scam free stuff... I think its the latter. I had a similar experience, only with soup/chowder. We had an old lady who had a bowl of chowder that constantly complained that it was "too cold". On the 3rd re-send, my cook co-worker took 2 bowls worth into a frying pan and heated it to the point where it was almost on fire and when he tried to check the tep with a spoon, he physically couldn't get the spoon to his mouth because it was the hot, and it was taken out to the lady right away, and she immediately tried to send it back because it was "still too cold".
Story 2: The OP and the call manager are awesome here.... and congrats on keeping your cool too. The guy on the phone was a complete moron and got what he asked for.... quite literally. Glad he was hit with a lifetime ban too. A good lesson on paying your bills on time too.
Story 3: Definitely not the jerk. The OP owns the condo and lets the daughter live there (along with roomies), and OP told the daughter ahead of time, so she's in the clear there. If the other roomie forgot, then thats on them. Next time though, leave a note or something... having stuff in writing will save your butt in the long run.
Story 4: I love hearing stories from both sides. Okay, the mom here isn't the biggest jerk ive seen, but i think she is after hearing the nanny's side. I understand wanting a dress code, it's fair really, but it moreso sounds like a "you cant tempt my husband/son with your attire" attitude from the mom. The babysitter is there to work, not hit on the husband.
Story 5: I just saw this story on FB just the other day. I feel bad for the sisters' home situations, but it's great that they bonded so well together.
As long as the dress code is non-gendered, there's no problem
6:09
WELCOME TO THE FAMILY SON
[punches]
He sounds like him lol
Is that a reference?
Great voice; so enthralling, keeps one riveted to your storytelling. You have a special talent when you imitate voices (spot on). Appreciate the fab videos and talent displayed.
The first thing thad you said I would throw the coffee at her😂😅
That last story was so cute
1:31 that's one new voice I've never heard before
In the first story the karen was speed running loss of tastebuds%
story 1: Is she trying to do a hot coffee lawsuit?
"ma'am. it's evaporating" SO IS HER HAND, WAIT, HOW IS IT NOT?
if someone gave me back the coffee twice i whould provably make it so hot EVERYTHING on the cup is vaporized
Oh the sister in the last story is an angel😄
I like the new karen sound! The "I come here everytime" was so on point 💀💀
As a former mcdonalds employee we were told about the lady who sued over the hot coffee as a cautionary tale because the coffee machine was making the coffees too hot an its why we had to check the temperature of all the coffee machines a couple times a day every day
My reaction to these Karens are just a whole lot of angry breathing and losing faith in this world.
Yeah, I mean ,will these karens ever learn
the first two were really funny
the nanny one was unexpected
The woman in that McDonald's coffee lawsuit was actually permanently disfigured with 3rd degree burns the car was not in motion and she was in the passenger seat her grandson I believe was in the driver's seat the car was parked and she was adding sugar when it's spilled giving her third degree burns that she couldn't afford to play the medical bills for so she had no choice but to sue
The McDonald's coffe story isn't so simple as you say. They were serving coffee that was hot enough it the pain sent her into shock and she had to have skin grafts
Actually, she was an older lady, so skin probably more fragile, and if hot liquid is on clothes and not promtly removed it can worsen the degree of injury, also any sort of emotionally or physical pain has the potential to cause shock, it depends on the situation and person and how they mentally handle the pain. This being said, she only wanted her medical bills to be paid for, and mcdonalds where d*cks about it. It is indeed a complicated story, and also the staff serving the drink had nothing to do with the following response and consequential lawsuit, corporations are often messy and complicated.
@@kage2670 actually, regardless of age coffee should never reach a temperature of 90c. mcdonald's serves coffee which should be fit for consumption, 90c is definitely not fit for consumption. also she had 3rd degree burns, that's why she went into shock, not because she was literally shocked but rather because she had 3rd degree burns(really painful)
Just put some Tabasco in it and it will get hot lol
Wow yes whenever I think of a girl dressing inappropriately I think of the most casual clothing item of all time: Sweatpants
Happy Saturday Everyone from Tacoma Washington! ( Stay Safe)
dang tails got some speed
First story:This is why places like that should have Carolina Reaper chili powder at hands. "You want it hot, I'll give you hot."
4:01 what I would do is give them a very hot yet empty cup and if they asked where the drink was or got mad that there was only a cup I would say “sorry I guess it evaporated well you asked for a very hot coffee so there it is as hot as you wanted it”
for the first story:
*slowly melts cup and gives it back to costumer*
Me trying not to get distracted on the Sonic Adventure gameplay and focus on the stories:
The second story is very good nice one as I working with bank people like this They deserve it.
Story 4 is not a jerk since she clearly laid out her expectations and that's much better than not making them known and putting them down later.
The nanny story is so bizarre. What did that lady want the nanny to wear? A business suit to chase children?
In the first story: i think these people microwave their coffee, it's the most likely explanation on why they think it needs to boil in the cup.
If I was working fast food and a karen kept coming back to me wanting her coffee hotter, I would give her a SUPER COLD cup of coffee and do the trick with the handle to make the HANDLE super hot. Also I would take her to court and sue for damages. >:)
New story letsssss go
Story 1: Now I actually faced a recurring customer who did the same thing in a coffee shop I worked in called North End. I knew he was bullying me around so on the 5th day he came, I formed my boss and colleagues that i would leave immediately if he wanted lava hot coffee again. He wanted lava hot mocha even tho I had every one of my coworkers confirm it's temperature so I said no and poured it over his head. Safe to say I was fired as that man ordered me to make it hotter so I can't be held accountable for any damages done as an employee. I ran as fast as my legs carried me out of that shop before that man got up to beat me to a pulp 😂
I work in food service and I run into these people daily
they should've put fire in the mug. 😒 Lol
In that first one, I would just say, “Oh, you want it hot? Okay, I’ll make it hot.” Then I would take the coffee and go full Let’s Game It Out mode by boiling it until all the liquid had evaporated, then take it back to her, put the cup of reeking curds and extremely hot ground-up coffee beans in front of her, look at her straight in the eyes, and say, “There. It’s hot.”
The first coffee story makes me think most humans don't understand how their own bodies, or insulation work. How do people go through life like that? Weird.
Hola amigos man I love this
(Reaction to the first story) I experienced something like this. it was my second day at the window making the orders, handling the cash, and giving them their orders. These two guys ordered some coffees and I made them specifically to their order and gave them it. They left without a word and I continued as normal. It was about four hours later when they came through the drive thru, saying the coffees were “undrinkable” and I had to make then two new ones, despite the fact that the coffees were basically empty as they had drank it. They got two new coffees free of charge, as per the policy of “the costumer is the main priority.” My supervisor wasn’t there for the first time but was there the second time. They leave and drive off again, then come back AGAIN, threeish hours later, within the last hour of my shift. These guys ignore the microphone box thing outside and drove right up to the window, threw two half empty coffee cups at me, splattering my uniform with coffee, and yelled at me for being “an moronic f### a#######!” And to make a coffee the correct way and then demanding that I get them other things on the menu for free as per them having to come back so much, and my supervisor lost it. He screamed at them. my supervisor made up two coffees and then threw them at the driver in retaliation for them assaulting me, and wrote down their cars lisence plates at they drove off in a panic, as they have probably planned to manipulate me thinking I was alone (it’s a small restaurant.) he asked if I wanted him to call the cops and I said no, saying that I thing having scalding hot coffee on your entire body was likely enough punishment. He poured cold coffee over me and got hot coffee in return, a fair trade I assume.
The woman who wants the coffie super hot is insane, because in my experience and opinion the defult "hot" tempeture is allready too hot.
Apartment/Condo mom is absolutely NTA. The daughter's roommate messed up and wasn't willing to admit it.
lets go we got Sa2 in the backround
Ok, on the McDonald's coffee lawsuit. It was an elderly lady, the lid wasn't well placed, and she got 2nd degree burns on her lap. Her grandchild was trying to get McDonald's to pay for the medical bills and they refused. Eventually they found out that there were a handful of customers with burnt marks caused by McDonald's coffee, and that's why the penalty was so high. They were accused of negligence and reckless behavior.
The reason why we remembered this as a Karen situation, is because they spent a bunch of money on propaganda making fun of the situation, so people wouldn't try to sue them again for something else.
It's kind of sad that this case has been so belittle when second degree burns hurt more than third degree, because your nerves are still functioning, so you feel the pain on every spot in your body
It was 3rd degree burns
Some people have a thing where they cannot be affected by extremely hot or extremely cold temperatures but who knows what she wanted
I remember this employee face at thumbnail, it was from karens ruining employees day
That first karen drank fire resistance potion or something
Story 3: If you don't want to be surprised by anyone while doing things, lock the room XD
Landlords probably have keys
@@lazyryan3766 Then let the keys on the door after you locked it 😁
The first person probably burned her mouth almost completely before this if she was being honest
I’m a barista In England and there was a couple who used to come in order 2 round of coffees which would cost around £10( this is 4 coffees and we charged for oat milk and syrup which they had. We are also a coffee house and I’m not going to get technical but we have 2x better quality coffee than costa) and every time they would refuse to pay. It took up 10 minutes every week and turned customers away. Another time the woman shouted at the owners son who is autistic and was 10. I was the only one working that day apart from the owner( amazing person and best boss ever btw) who was out back. This woman shouted at him and I heard it. She cussed at him for petting her dog. I went on to charge her for her half drunken coffee and said” get the fuck out “ although I was later made to have a time out for 5 minutes to cool off, the owner banned them for life and thanked me. Guess who got a bonus. I had shouted my line at her and bear in mind this was the busiest day of our week and there were no free tables, and everyone stopped and she left with her husband. They guy then apologised and left a £50 tip.
i like my coffee like i like me air
a gas
Oh god I LOVE THE 2ND STORY SOOO MUCH!!! Bankers or people working for the bank especially customer service deal with a lot of shit... That was satisfying....
These Karen's are crazy man 💀
in story 4 no one was a jerk until nany told that she was being strange in her story.
1:31 ok leafy
What kinda person wants there coffee that hot? Apparently that Karen..😒
People who either cant feel any kind of heat, or people trying to scam free items, and it's generally the latter.
Is wasn't until I startledly spilled some hot cocoa touching my knuckles to the mug that I realized how much less hot the handle is
@@lazyryan3766 oh that must’ve hurt 😶
They should’ve thrown the boiling, curdled coffee at her. Screw bills. It’s worth it.
3rd story: i heard it so many time but ... i still state she didn't went in as a landlord but as the mother. She also said she knock the door to see if anyone was still there (that was state in the comments by OP), since she didn't barge in at all other than open it with her own key. And on top she didn't know who the guy was at all either, and didn't even know if was her or Roomate's 2 bf. Roommate 1 was so preoccupied she spill the bean to stop thinking it was more better if she was with him in one of the rooms.
Now knowing OP knock on the door previously and Roommate 1 "forgot" she will came ... because i believe she didn't ... Roommate 1 probably took that moment to do the deed with roommate 2's bf before OP came to drop that for her daughter. So the moment OP knock on the door, Roommate 1 and the guy had all the time to get out from there. BUT instead she play it as if "nobody was there", believing OP didn't had the keys from the place". But in the end OP has keys of the place and find them like that. And even if she didn't spill the beans, she will eventually see Roommate 2's bf and ask how him and Roommate 1 is .... spilling the beans eventually ...
last story: I love this sister and I wish I had a sibling like this, being an only child
I read somewhere that coffee can be too hot to be healthy
8:12 8:23 LOL
the karen be sounding like a f ing duck :skull:
The daughter's roommate in the condo was just being petty that doesn't apply if there was an agreement in advance.
I can't ask my landlord to do something in my apartment and then complain that they didn't give me enough notice when I asked them to.
Story1: at this point just serve her a cup of nuclear fusion
STORY 4 I love how she says a teacher wouldn't wear that well I know multiple teachers at my school wear them to school it's normal
In the second story, near the end it said "tonightk"
Story 1: That poor lady 😭
Story 2: Do people genuinely think this-?
Story 3: Just look away, look away.
Story 4: Really? You were mad at her for leggings and a sweater? Are you sane 🤨
Story 5: Aw, what an awesome sister. I'm so happy your life ended up so much better.
Stories 1 (the op, the manager is trash), 2, 3, and 5 are not the jerks. Story 4 is the jerk.
When he said the husband was a trainer I thought of a Pokémon trainer ☠️
wow i would just be confused
