Story 5: That is some unhinged stuff right there. Barging into rooms, committing assault, destruction of property, it's mental. No wonder she lost custody.
I don't know what move she was trying with the destruction of property, if that was my house and my Granddaughter, I'd just smirk at her and tell her now I had even more of a reason to beat the 💩 out of her before calling Police and suing her. And still thinking YOU'RE in the right when a ROOMFULL of people are yelling at you?! Karens NEED to learn to read rooms better before one of them ends up getting lynched!
The only time I've ever heard of a baby or toddler getting tattooed is in the case of twins - one had a life threatening medical condition, and the two were difficult to tell apart, so they tattooed an extra freckle on the sick child to make sure that only the correct child got the medication.
Story 1: the Karen has the bloody sense to refuse to get it in writing as OP will use that to sue her for employment discrimination. Remember if your boss is making you do something bad or criminal always get in writing to sue them.
@@aetheralmeowstic2392 I would say, "Show me where in the employee and management handbook that says you can tell me what I can and cannot bring from home for lunch." OP starts the story by saying he works in an office of of around 15 people. Is that "office" the only office of a business, or is it one of many offices. If there is an HR office, take it to HR and explain the situation to them. I suspect that Miss Butthurt cuz she ain't the best cook in the office would be told to back off and shut it real quick by higher ups.
Yep! This was a mild case but its also really important to get stuff in writing in case they are being sued and try to pin the blame on you. "We didn't do it op did!!" "Nope here it is in writing, here you are telling me to do the thing"
Story 3: medical tattoos on children are a thing. I heard a story about a pair of identical twins, and one of them had a medical issue, and after an incident where the wrong twin was given the medicine, the dr's suggested that the twin with the condition be given a medical tattoo, which did end up only being a dot near their ear, it is still an instance where a child got a tattoo and it wasn't a bad thing
They also use tattoos for things like radiation. And sadly, there are newborns with cancer who go through things like chemo and radiation well before their first birthday.
A lot of people don't realize that pets often have tattoos too, depending on where you're from! They're less common these days, but their purpose is usually to give a physical indication that they've been spayed/neutered, they're already under anesthesia anyway so they don't feel it and it's pretty little, sometimes in the ear flap and sometimes on the least furry area of the belly. I remember being so shocked when I noticed our rescue dog's tattoo when I was little 😳😂 and you can only imagine how hard it was for my mother to figure out a way to explain the entire thing to a small child, hahaha. "Right, so she can't have puppies.... but why? But HOW? Who wouldn't want more puppies? Who wouldn't want ALL the puppies?! How do you take away her puppy oven?! Is she sad? 😭" I never accepted simple answers...😂
I remember that story & I have no issue with a tattoo for a medically needed reason. Matter of fact it's a brilliant idea, no chance of miscommunication or someones memory being off.
Story 5: Had this been my daughter or granddaughter, EM wouldn't need to worry about being taken to court. She'd not need to worry about anything ever again. I would have to, though.
That lady in the 5th story is completely unhinged in many ways. Barging into the private space of a sick child, accusing them without any real evidence, getting upset that she isn't fully dressed in her private room that no one is supposed to be going into, then grabbing them and yanking down their pants to violently spank them. Spanking is already contentious as a parental discipline but OP wasn't even HER child which makes it even worse. It isnt even her place to discipline OP if she actually DID do something wrong. That isnt even going into the destruction of property and how what she did could be viewed as s***** assault
People who spank others without their consent, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN, need to be put on a watchlist, full stop. The sheer amount of people who apparently think that's a perfectly reasonable thing to do is disturbing.
If someone put hands on you, or you see it happen to a victim..... By all means, use the FULL right of self defence! Let them learn the hard way! EDIT = Story 5, no matter what, i would have pressed charges for : Assault on a minor, s3xual assault, child abuse, breaking and entering (pretty much) and damaging and destroying private property. That is, if she left the house alive to begin with.
I do think it's sweet that the kid seemed genuinely remorseful for what happened to the girl in the fifth story. Probably has a bit of experience with his mother being scary like that, so it probably hit very close to home for him. Good thing he doesn't have to live with that woman anymore.
That story of the Karen spanking OP, I swear, had OP been my sister or daughter, that Karen would be in a world of hurt, and there would be police there. I'm a private person, it's taken me most of my life to get my own parents to not just barge into my space when I have the door closed. So if I had a kid who closed their door for privacy, and some lady barged her way into her room, there will be hell to pay, and if she breaks any of her stuff, she'll pay for it in court. If she raised a hand to my family, she'll receive a slap to the face, and my dragging her out of the room by the ear. I don't care what her kid said my kid did, let me handle my child, and let me determine if she's lying.
If a Karen went into my daughter's room and did what the women did, there would no longer be that Karen. She would be buried 6 feet under in my back yard.
My favourite part of Story 5 is that the EM did all that to "teach a lesson", and ended up teaching her SON a lesson, and that lesson was not to lie and that his mom is a terrible person.
That last story ... the co-worker should have said "You want the manager? Hang on, I'll get her," and then called OP over just to watch the woman shit a brick.
You want the manager to complain about poor service, sure, I want the cops to report you for giving alcohol to a minor. So lets get both and see which one of us wins.
You can actually serve children his age in a pub in the UK if the adult is present. Also, you can’t just fire someone on the spot here. That story is a bit iffy on accuracy.
Having spent 47 years working in the Customer Service Industry, I have seen enough Karen’s and Ken’s to sink the Titanic. 98% were entitled who thought the world actually revolved around them. I managed to keep my sanity and now I’m happily retired.
Story 2:Although a formal post-secondary education isn’t necessary to succeed in life, it’s difficult for someone who has no idea what “business” they want to have their money invested in. A good business plan also isn’t absolutely required, but OP is providing a great heads-up on what a successful business generally needs.
The spanking story: Had it been my granddaughter I would have had her arrested for naughtily assault on a child. Said woman would have been a registered naughty offender by the end of the week.
I was about to ask why you were using the word "naughty" until I thought of YT's guidelines and likely stopped you saying the s word would likely be inappropriate, get deleted, etc. But yeah. That stuff would have never flown with my family. If I was under 10 and my mother/father or even grandparents disciplined me because I obviously did something wrong? I knew it was discipline. But someone else when I am 16 in my own room? Charges and possibly hospital visit when they left with many injuries. My mother is an army vet (E4P) and takes no crap from anyone.
Seriously, that nurse needs to learn how "Burden of Proof" works. I don't understand how so many people make it to adulthood without learning such a basic thing. Like, what the fuck?!
Story 2: I suggest not telling your kids you've started a "college fund". They are bound to think of that money as "theirs" by right. Just bung it in a savings account and say nothing about it until the time comes. I'm willing to bet that child would not have dreamed of refusing further education if he thought he'd have to make his own way in the world.
As a compromised, I would suggest (if I was the parent) to my kid to show us the plan first, than I'll unlock 50k. I mean, 50k to start a business for the first time is a very very big amount to start on : to put thing in place, get his first financial stuff & etc. Because guess what, if what is planned is a least a little bit of a good idea, a lot more than 400k will be need on it and who will put their house/car / anything in garantee : not the 17 years old that just started. If with 50k, he can't do what some start with 0$, he will at least got a real experience, maybe get a little older and realised that what his parent is asking is not that much of deal... I mean, at least know how to his planning, contracting, evaluate production cost vs pricing and basic stuff for when you'll do your first taxes claim!
@nicolasjoly6948 Absolutely. An excellent point. They should present the sort of business plan a bank would demand before making a loan of an equivalent amount.
Yes. I would release a portion of the money to the son, and make him sign a contract that he will get the rest once his business shows signs of being successful. The contract would also stipulate that if he pisses away the first part of the money, he forfeits the rest.
When my mum was pregnant with me in 1969, my 10 year old brother had found a stray cat, put it inside his coat and brought it home. The cat jumped out of the coat and startled my mother. When I was born, I had a small birthmark on my forehead that looked like a cat with its tail up in the air towards my hairline ! It faded as I got older, unlike my other birthmark which is a big red patch on the back of my head ! Even now at 53, people ask ‘What’s happened to the back of your head ?’ (They think it’s burnt)
Some parents believe in spanking as a punishment which I don’t understand that’s only going to make the child hate the parent more and give them PTSD, why was that even a thing in the first place
Story 5: My late fiancée wore sports bras all the time. It was just her style. No one got after her for it, no one told her to cover up. As far as I know, no one had a problem with it. I will also say, if someone did that to my kid, they would of had their ass beat. I would have then called the police. Yes officers, I caught her sexually assaulting my child, so I did what any parent would have done, and kick her ass.
Never mind that-barging into someone's room and complaining they're "indecent" is unforgivable in the first place no matter what they wear. If it's my damn room NOBODY has any right to complain that I'm "indecent", whether I'm butt naked or dressed for the North Pole.
@@kcunningham064 In the US Nanny is only used for people with that job, so only people paid to tend kids, not related. Well, there might be some outliers, but it's not defined as anything else in the dictionary here. I wasn't aware of it being an alternative for Grandma anywhere. Good to know.
Story 5: i dont have a child but rest assured that if i ever decide to have one and something similar happens, i might be going to jail but the assailant would be three meters underground.
College fund vs business story: NTA! OP, I agree with you. Most kids (I don't care that he's 17, 18 or 19, he's still a kid) fresh out of high school have absolutely no idea of what goes into running a business, let alone a successful business. What you described as courses he should take at the community college is the bare minimum he should have. If he were smart, he would take you up on your offer to work at your business part-time, getting experience, while going to school to see how it operates, even if it's not in the field he wants to get into. And if he agreed to that you should have him work in several different departments/areas to see how each operates and what has to be done for them, separately and together. Spanking a sick OP story: Good grief! Like little kids never lie when they don't get their way. And given how little actual fabric can be found in many bikini's at most pools and beaches, a sports bra and shorts is extremely modest.
Kid didn't even know how to work. Thinks "being a successful CEO of a business" means hot and cold running secretaries and days on the golfing range. After the first 16 hour day (without making a single sale) he'd be having second thoughts. I had to educate one of my kids around that age on what it takes to run a business, let alone a successful one. All a young person like that has seen of business is Dad taking money out of an ATM. Like it's a money tree lol.
There's a reason mom and dad called it a 'college fund' and not an 'f--- around and find out fund'. They have a lot more experience and business savvy than junior does! But he doesn't know enough to know how little he knows yet.
When I hear stories about the birthmark it reminds me of what happened to my mother In the early sixties my sister was diagnosed with Leukemia and had a survival rate of ZERO percent with only 4 drugs available. Because of the side effects she was bruised and swollen (Prednisone) and one of the women in the waiting room said to the others "that is what you see family court". My mom was so upset the nurse put her in another room. My sister only lived 4 months from diagnosis. I got the impression that person thought she was a know-it-all and not a concerned person.
As far as getting a baby tattoo….This was a long time ago…the baby is is now in college… I was friends with the Parents. His Mother was a Karen. She was very pleased that the first grandchild was a girl. She always wanted a girl instead of the 3 sons that she did have. Once she learned a girl was on the way she went all out to get girly things for the baby. She demanded to have total control over designing the nursery, the crib the furniture & artistic designs. Only her outfits could be worn by baby. When my friends rejected her nursery plans she built a nursery of her design in her house. She then demanded to having the baby over every weekend at her house. Then Karen began talking about retiring so she could take over the baby full time during the workweek. FIL didn’t like that one bit. When my friends told Karen that the wife’s sister was going to be the caregiver instead. Sister had a toddler & had a degree was in child care. This really angered Karen. To the heart of the story. Karen was allowed to take the baby (around 6 months old) for a Saturday morning. When Karen & baby returned Karen had taken the baby to get her ears pierced. My friends were furious at such entitlement. The parents immediately removed the starter earring & told Karen she had lost all baby privileges for the foreseeable future. Karen tried to get other friends & relatives on “her side” but she was met by a solid wall of rejection. For several years the only time Karen saw her granddaughter was at family gatherings. No solo times allowed. My friends had a second child~a son. Karen wasn’t interested.
The story with the sick girl, depending on where she lives, that was a sexual assault. Where I love (Michigan USA) there is no statute of limitations for most sexual assaults. Get Karen's name on a list!
Story 1 that boss is committing workplace discrimination by saying that only the OP is not allowed to bring food from home. And her actions say she knows that too.
Non to mention her sexist comments that only men can be great chefs. If that is not a slap at her own sex, I don't know what is. The woman's attitudes and inappropriate flexing in telling OP he cannot bring in home cooked for for lunch should all be reported to HR AND her immediate supervisor.
@@tinydancer7426 I whole heartedly agree with that. She needs to be fired if not demoted because she is creating a hostile work environment. And the OP needs to start recording all of his interactions with her.
@@alphaleader870 So right with the recording. I wouldn't say she is toxic in the workplace, but that crap about banning him from bringing food from home is ridiculous.
Story 5, I'm not surprised that Karens kid lied to his mom to get op in trouble. Leave it to a Karen to not listen to the truth, berate op, and blame someone. It's Karens fault for thinking she can spank the hosts teenager. Of course op was going to scream for her grandpa. After seeing the horrid state poor op was in naturally everyone was going to scream and tear into Karen. Not surprised that Karen screamed back to insult and accuse op. Apparently hearing that her husband was against her tipped over the edge. Not surprised that Karen tried to refuse to pay for the damage til op's grandma threatened to press charges. It was karma that she lost the kid to her husband and now everyone wants nothing to do with her. Hopefully the kid learned a lesson that day, don't be like a Karen.
Story 2: THANK YOU!!!! If I remember right, the original comments on the post ripped OP a new one, with the YTA votes. But, he's just trying to give his son the most help he can, even if it seems like there's a couple strings attached. Since OP even clarified that he would pay separately for the community college, and then also give his son the college fund once he had a business plan.
There was a story where a mother did tattoo her baby, but it was a medical tattoo. The baby was an identical twin and had either allergies or needed medicine and one of the parents kept mixing up the babies. So they got a medical tattoo on the babies foot, I think, so when it was time to give the baby the medicine it wouldn't go to the wrong twin. Not the same type of tattoo you were thinking, but it is a tattoo.
Story 6 reminded me of something! Honestly, I'm a legal adult and I don't seem to be more than 15. There was a specific situation in November last year when I ordered a martini on the beach and the waiter's reaction was simply hilarious. Normally I already hand my ID, that time i just forgot. The conversation went something like this: Mom: My daughter wants to order a drink. Waiter: Great. So, what's it going to be? Me: A martini, please. He just stopped everything he was doing, looked at me in pure disbelief, then at my mother, and me again. Literally put his notebook down and stared with such a comical shocked face for a few seconds that i grabbed my bag and just I immediately asked him if he wanted my ID. It was a fun day, but I found out I hate martinis, lol. But just talking about Story6 for a second, nothing justifies this woman's attitude, for God's sake, what is the problem with people with underage children and alcohol???
Story 1: Karen is jealous as hell and stops short of trying to impose her will on OP. Story 2: OP is defintely NOT the AH. The things OP is asking of his son are entirely reasonable. He doesn't want his son to blow the $400K college fund on some hare-brained get-rich-quick scheme. Story 3: Karen may have had her heart in the right place but her refusal to back down is what makes her a Karen. Story 4: Karen may be too tight to get a hotel room but that doesn't give her the right to take over her daughter's dorm room. Story 5: That is indecent assault as well as assault on a minor. That aunt has NO right to do what she did and deserved to lose her kids in the end. Story 6: It is illegal to obtain alcohol for an underage person on licenced premises (e.g. a pub or a club) in the UK under Section 149 of the Licensing Act 2003. I suspect it took place in Somerset as the area is known for scrumpy and some of it is so strong that it is only sold by the half pint. The Karen clearly didn't know that scrumpy is different to keg ciders such as Strongbow that are on tap. The OP should've ejected the Karen and banned her. As the manager, the licence to sell alcohol will most likely be in her name and therefore her responsibility. Also as the licence holder, she has the right to ban Karen. Fortunately, Karens are rare in the UK due to the numerous zero tolerance policies in place towards such entitled and abusive people.
#1 What a petty boss that Karen is. She kept it well hidden for a long time, but her true nature exploded for everyone to clearly see. #2 The son want to start a business WITHOUT the tools needed to actually start a viable business. Just giving him the money would mean that it'll all go to waste on a business destined to fail. #3 What a prejudiced Karen jumping to conclusion without any valid reason.
Story 1: OP should just go ahead and report this one over the boss' head here. If Boss won't put it in writing, she knows this won't hold up under any scrutiny by her bosses, and she's just throwing an adult temper tantrum because someone's a better cook than her. Really, Karen? There are billions of people in the world, and a fair number of them cook. What are the odds that you'd be the best cook in the world? Story 2: The doctor assuming Karen's heart is in the right place is probably giving her more credit than she deserves. Some people just love feeling self-righteous.
Story 5: I'm amazed that that demon from Hell left the house without a bruised jaw or a black eye. Barging into rooms without permission, wrongful accusations, physical assault on a minor, and destruction of property. Do that to my daughter, and I hope you enjoy having dentures for the rest of your life. At least she eventually lost custody of her kids.
Or start a crypto exchange. The kid has a lot going for him. He can get any education/training he wants and likely will not be in debt and he has parents with good heads on their shoulders to advise him. The only thing he has going against him is the brain of a 17 year old boy, and we all know how messed up that can be. Hopefully he grows out of it and sees how smart his parents are. I give him 3-4 years before he gets out of the current phase.
My youngest who is 12yrs old now was born with a strawberry birthmark on her back. It appeared within her first month of life and it was bright red and raised up quite a bit from her skin. It’s basically a bunch of blood vessels really close to the surface of her skin. The bright redness will and does eventually fade away by age 10 as my daughters did, but the birthmark itself is still there just extremely pale now.
Okay, first story, how in the world could that be mistaken for a tattoo? It's far too indistinct and uneven. If it is a tattoo, it was put on by a blind tattooist with Parkinson's Disease.
Been looking for someone to point out that looked exactly like a birthmark. Unless it was a photo of the BM at a later age and the mark as a baby was a lot darker. But still, it seemed neither the nurse or the EM were close enough to make that call. Birthmarks still look like birthmarks up close and personal.
Heart birthmarks are totally a thing. I'd tell you all about someone who as a baby had a heart shaped mark on his bum just like a Carebear, but he's sick of us telling people about it so that's all I say.
I remember listening to the story of identical twins being mixed up. The mother got a dot tattooed on one twins earlobe to distinguish them. The grandmother was asked to identify which twin was which and couldn't, then got upset when the parents told her of the freckle tattoo.
Story 5... I would have totally called the police and filed charges. Trespassing, Assault, Would call pulling off her shorts sexual assault, vandalism (one for each project destroyed, and another for the supplies)... WOuld have got the kid out faster.
I love food. I'm no Michelin chef and the only top chef I can think of is Gordon Ramsey. I know what I CAN cook would never appeal to him because of his strict standards but I'm not going to be selfish and tell him he can't do something because I'm jealous. Like... REALLY Karen?
The thing is, Gordon is trained to judge restaurant food and help failing restaurants. Home cooked food is different. Also, home cooked is way better than food from fancy restaurants. Trust me.
@@CannibalChxrry All of that is immaterial in a situation of an office supervisor making an arbitrary rule just because she thinks she can. It's arbitrary and totally immaterial to the daily work done.
Story 5- I would locked my door letting people know not to go in ever and any fool who’d dare put a hand on me there will be a big fight waiting to happen but won’t end well for anyone who would attack me let alone allow their kids go near my room
@@jbstar6246 I have a matching birthmark to one of my uncles, which is pretty weird because it basically looks like a cluster of freckles (and nobody in our family including ourselves has actual freckles anywhere else) about 2x3" on the top of our right thighs about halfway down. It's just so oddly specific and they're EXACTLY the same. I know, there's a terrible joke about my paternity involved, but yes he is just my uncle. 😜
We should all appreciate how darkfluff's speaking style has evolved over the years. So much more self-confidence in the voice. Keep it up! I am impressed.
If my kid went into someone's room they weren't supposed to be in, then came back to me saying the person in the room had spanked him for going into the room, my response would be, "Well, you shouldn't have went into the room."
Yeah, they're very distinct. And touching them is also another giveaway, they feel like normal skin. Tattoos, moles, and sometimes even freckles feel different. Hell, I have a birthmark on my thigh that looks like a paw, and lots of nurses were confused when they seen it years ago when it was darker, but they still knew it was a birthmark
Perhaps a young one just out of school? Even so, she should never have asked the mother for proof it wasn't. Whose business was it even if it had been a tattoo?
Second story: Start a business is a great idea if done right. But is the fastest way to jump into debt and possible bankrupsy if you do it with no knowledge at all.
My dorm had twin beds and there is no way in any possible universe my parents would have shared a twin bed in the same room where I was. That’s just weird. Let alone booting the roommate
I got asked if I was 15 when I was 21. I was insulted, but actually had ID and SHOWED it. I also immediately began re-growing my moustache(couldn't grow a beard worth beans until I was 25, but was able to grow a decent moustache since turning 18, lol)
My favorite story is the ❤ shape birthmark. The grandmother is my absolute favorite human being ever! I’ll never look at unicorns the same again! 😂😂😂😂😂
Story #5 reminded me of the time my dad accused me of stealing one of his CDs when I was 11 years old. I told him I didn't have his CD but he didn't believe me, then he proceeded to trash my room looking for it. When he didn't find his CD he told me to clean up the mess he made and left. I sat in my room, in tears, for over an hour cleaning up the mess.
Story 5: that’s physically and sexual assault. She shouldn’t be allowed to have a child. I don’t respect people who hit children, if you wouldn’t hit your child then don’t hit your child on their ass, it’s no different then straight up hitting them.
I'd like to correct the OP in Story #4 and say that it wasn't the Karen and the husband who thought they could use the roommate's space. It was just the Karen. The husband even said he knew they should have gone to a hotel. Obviously, he was brow-beaten pretty bad by his wife and couldn't do anything but agree. This would be to his detriment, though. Now the daughter won't want anything to do with him by proxy. And if she does, he had better have a straight jacket harness with a matching muzzle for Karen when he visits again.
As for story number 5: If any other grown adult tried to do that to me or my kids, I wouldn't settle the case out of court. They'd get punished to the fullest extent of the law. Karens need to re-learn the idea "keep your hands to yourself"!
Just to put it in before anyone reminds us that kids can drink in the U.K. from the age of 5 (with sensible limits, of course) that's AT HOME. Licenced premises have a legal limit of 18.
@@Kayenne54 a lot of the rest if Europe can drink beer and wine from 16 with spirits at 18. Think it may be 14 in Greece for beer and wine and I think in Denmark it's 14 for beer and cider only. In UK you can technically have glass of wine with food I think from 14 or something but I've never seen anyone do it. Defo the actual law in France and Italy I've seen a kid that looked upon 10 with a very small bit of wine in a glass in a restaurant. With her parents so I don't see the issue. But mum buying her son an 8% pint of scrumpy...well most places I been to won't even sell 8% scrumpy in a pint to a grown adult. Only sell in half pints as it really hits you. Definitely not a gateway drink as the barman said. I actually don't see an issue with a young man having one pint with his mum at say 15/16 but you can't ask a licensed premises to knowingly serve to you as they can get in real trouble. It's a personal up to £10k fine for the person who serves them/sells them the booze so keep that sort of stuff at home where it's actually perfectly legal too. Get him a nice kopparberg or a bulmers 4% sweet and fizzy one step up from pop which is obvs what mum and son were expecting.
The story about the baby’s birthmark reminded me of another story I read. The couple had identical twins and one had a medical illness for several years and so they wouldn’t give the medication to the wrong twin, they had the sick baby tattooed with a brown freckle on his leg that would eventually fade away after several years.
That college fund story... OP should point out that it is a college fund so the parents putting those conditions is giving him the opportunity to use the fund for something other than college.
Yeah, I would file multiple charges against that women. Assault with intent to injure on a minor, Child abuse because she physically left marks on a 16 year old’s body that wasn’t her own, and destruction of private property.
1st story when I was a kid & I went to summer camp every day my grandma (who i lived with during the summer) would pack me these great lunches! Counselors & campers would always say how awesome they were Well fast forward to the last day of camp award day & I would always get the award for best lunch! I loved it & would always show my grandma but I was also between the ages of 6-12 when this happened
I had a coworker that would get all pissy and jealous if someone brought something delicious to a potluck at work. If others got compliments on their food, she would go on and on about her dish, and would also say she had a recipe for what you brought and her recipe was so much better. She would be happy to give you her recipe. We would always just tell her no thanks. That would always put her in a bad mood then. She was just an average cook and not the chef she imagined herself to be.
There should be a law stating that self-entitled people should have to spend a MINIMUM of 6 months in sensitivity training. They're the ones that need it the most.
Wow. Women generally have to be REALLY bad to lose custody, with the exception of if the father has connections with local police, the judge, etc. What the heck did that abusive, crazy wacko DO to lose custody of her kids?!
Story 5: god bless the grandfather for keeping his composure enough to limit his rage to swearing. If I were in his shoes, nothing short of police would be able to tear me off of retaliating against that woman
Story 2: ah, yes. Nothing like saying "if you wanna start a business, you have to prove you're somewhat responsible. That's literally the only condition for you to do what you want. I'm paying for tbe lessons, you just gotta take them" to be super controlling and assholish
"Can you prove that you DIDN'T tattoo your baby?"
"I don't know. Can you prove that you're NOT stupid?"
Story 5: That is some unhinged stuff right there. Barging into rooms, committing assault, destruction of property, it's mental. No wonder she lost custody.
I would have gotten my first body that day if that's was my daughter
@@nakayawashington349 Agree. I'd have administered some "personal justice" right there on the spot.
The frightening thing is that OP and such settled outside of court, so the lost custody was due to other stuff she did wrong. I hate to imagine.
I'd have beat the c__t into a bloody pulp
I don't know what move she was trying with the destruction of property, if that was my house and my Granddaughter, I'd just smirk at her and tell her now I had even more of a reason to beat the 💩 out of her before calling Police and suing her.
And still thinking YOU'RE in the right when a ROOMFULL of people are yelling at you?! Karens NEED to learn to read rooms better before one of them ends up getting lynched!
The only time I've ever heard of a baby or toddler getting tattooed is in the case of twins - one had a life threatening medical condition, and the two were difficult to tell apart, so they tattooed an extra freckle on the sick child to make sure that only the correct child got the medication.
I think that was a Reddit story
First story: Speaking of fragile and small ego. That's an HR complain for targeted harrasment and retaliation.
Nice try, but the company is not big enough to even have a hr department

@@emanymton7184 still I could violate local labor laws such as a hostile work environment or harassment on the job
Technically it's discrimination is it not because she's discriminating against him saying bad things because of his gender that's discrimination
Story 1: the Karen has the bloody sense to refuse to get it in writing as OP will use that to sue her for employment discrimination. Remember if your boss is making you do something bad or criminal always get in writing to sue them.
If you don't put it in writing, I won't do it.
@@aetheralmeowstic2392 I would say, "Show me where in the employee and management handbook that says you can tell me what I can and cannot bring from home for lunch." OP starts the story by saying he works in an office of of around 15 people. Is that "office" the only office of a business, or is it one of many offices. If there is an HR office, take it to HR and explain the situation to them. I suspect that Miss Butthurt cuz she ain't the best cook in the office would be told to back off and shut it real quick by higher ups.
Yep! This was a mild case but its also really important to get stuff in writing in case they are being sued and try to pin the blame on you. "We didn't do it op did!!" "Nope here it is in writing, here you are telling me to do the thing"
My supervisor refused to put anything in writing even an email if she knew it was sketchy.
@@dawneendostert3576 and if she refused, then you knew she couldn't enforce it
Story 3: medical tattoos on children are a thing. I heard a story about a pair of identical twins, and one of them had a medical issue, and after an incident where the wrong twin was given the medicine, the dr's suggested that the twin with the condition be given a medical tattoo, which did end up only being a dot near their ear, it is still an instance where a child got a tattoo and it wasn't a bad thing
They also use tattoos for things like radiation. And sadly, there are newborns with cancer who go through things like chemo and radiation well before their first birthday.
It was an AITA story
@@elijahjarman2837 yes it is
A lot of people don't realize that pets often have tattoos too, depending on where you're from! They're less common these days, but their purpose is usually to give a physical indication that they've been spayed/neutered, they're already under anesthesia anyway so they don't feel it and it's pretty little, sometimes in the ear flap and sometimes on the least furry area of the belly. I remember being so shocked when I noticed our rescue dog's tattoo when I was little 😳😂 and you can only imagine how hard it was for my mother to figure out a way to explain the entire thing to a small child, hahaha. "Right, so she can't have puppies.... but why? But HOW? Who wouldn't want more puppies? Who wouldn't want ALL the puppies?! How do you take away her puppy oven?! Is she sad? 😭" I never accepted simple answers...😂
I remember that story & I have no issue with a tattoo for a medically needed reason. Matter of fact it's a brilliant idea, no chance of miscommunication or someones memory being off.
Story 5: Had this been my daughter or granddaughter, EM wouldn't need to worry about being taken to court. She'd not need to worry about anything ever again. I would have to, though.
Damn straight
Same here assault my family get a free tour of the morgue
Agreed
abaolutely that neck would get wrung
I'd be your alibi!
That lady in the 5th story is completely unhinged in many ways. Barging into the private space of a sick child, accusing them without any real evidence, getting upset that she isn't fully dressed in her private room that no one is supposed to be going into, then grabbing them and yanking down their pants to violently spank them. Spanking is already contentious as a parental discipline but OP wasn't even HER child which makes it even worse. It isnt even her place to discipline OP if she actually DID do something wrong.
That isnt even going into the destruction of property and how what she did could be viewed as s***** assault
People who spank others without their consent, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN, need to be put on a watchlist, full stop. The sheer amount of people who apparently think that's a perfectly reasonable thing to do is disturbing.
the boy hits another child
EM "there just being kids"
another kid hits the boy
EM" im gonna rip out your jaw line as no one is allowed to"
uh Tengen Uzui spanked Aoi in the entrainment district so not disturbing
Story 5 : too bad,they settled outside of court. If they go to court that karen would probably loss of her custody of her kid sooner.
That tends to happen when you're in prison.
Story 5 - thats not just assault of a minor... Depending on the country, thats sexual assault
OP... if anyone in my family had been there, they'd have beaten the absolute piss out of that cow.
^ this
God it really fucking infuriated me, I hate how normalized that is.
Really should have pressed charges. Someone like that is dangerous.
If it was a stranger, it would have been sexual assault because of her age. That crap is SERIOUS. EM should have gone to jail for a LONG time.
She should have left on a stretcher
Story 5: Grandma and Grandpa should have pressed criminal charges anyway, in addition to filing a civil suit for damages.
That nurse is not a lawyer, she had no business asking about "proof" for a birthmark.
The nurse should be able to tell the difference between a birth mark and a tattoo
Looking at the picture of the heart...that would have to have been done in the drunk tank at the county jail for a tattoo heart to look that bad.
If someone put hands on you, or you see it happen to a victim..... By all means, use the FULL right of self defence! Let them learn the hard way! EDIT = Story 5, no matter what, i would have pressed charges for : Assault on a minor, s3xual assault, child abuse, breaking and entering (pretty much) and damaging and destroying private property. That is, if she left the house alive to begin with.
I do think it's sweet that the kid seemed genuinely remorseful for what happened to the girl in the fifth story. Probably has a bit of experience with his mother being scary like that, so it probably hit very close to home for him. Good thing he doesn't have to live with that woman anymore.
That story of the Karen spanking OP, I swear, had OP been my sister or daughter, that Karen would be in a world of hurt, and there would be police there. I'm a private person, it's taken me most of my life to get my own parents to not just barge into my space when I have the door closed. So if I had a kid who closed their door for privacy, and some lady barged her way into her room, there will be hell to pay, and if she breaks any of her stuff, she'll pay for it in court. If she raised a hand to my family, she'll receive a slap to the face, and my dragging her out of the room by the ear. I don't care what her kid said my kid did, let me handle my child, and let me determine if she's lying.
If a Karen went into my daughter's room and did what the women did, there would no longer be that Karen. She would be buried 6 feet under in my back yard.
Police: We're here to investigate a missing person; Karen McFuckface?
You: She deserved it.
Police: Understandable, have a great day.
I understand you point of view
My favourite part of Story 5 is that the EM did all that to "teach a lesson", and ended up teaching her SON a lesson, and that lesson was not to lie and that his mom is a terrible person.
That last story ... the co-worker should have said "You want the manager? Hang on, I'll get her," and then called OP over just to watch the woman shit a brick.
You want the manager to complain about poor service, sure, I want the cops to report you for giving alcohol to a minor. So lets get both and see which one of us wins.
You can actually serve children his age in a pub in the UK if the adult is present. Also, you can’t just fire someone on the spot here. That story is a bit iffy on accuracy.
@@c.b.h1151 Obviously you can't fire someone on the spot but he wasn't even the manager. He just said that so Karen would leave.
Having spent 47 years working in the Customer Service Industry, I have seen enough Karen’s and Ken’s to sink the Titanic. 98% were entitled who thought the world actually revolved around them. I managed to keep my sanity and now I’m happily retired.
Story 5: If that was my daughter that woman would have been slapped 50 ways silly & my foot up her caboose. Plus I would have called the cops.
Story 2:Although a formal post-secondary education isn’t necessary to succeed in life, it’s difficult for someone who has no idea what “business” they want to have their money invested in. A good business plan also isn’t absolutely required, but OP is providing a great heads-up on what a successful business generally needs.
The spanking story: Had it been my granddaughter I would have had her arrested for naughtily assault on a child. Said woman would have been a registered naughty offender by the end of the week.
Oh c'mon. Can't a woman have her fetish?
I was about to ask why you were using the word "naughty" until I thought of YT's guidelines and likely stopped you saying the s word would likely be inappropriate, get deleted, etc.
But yeah. That stuff would have never flown with my family. If I was under 10 and my mother/father or even grandparents disciplined me because I obviously did something wrong? I knew it was discipline. But someone else when I am 16 in my own room? Charges and possibly hospital visit when they left with many injuries. My mother is an army vet (E4P) and takes no crap from anyone.
How tf would she prove its NOT a tattoo?? They can foot the bill for skin tests I guess lol
One would think a tattoo artist could tell if it was a tattoo from the appearance.
The nurse is an idiot. Most birthmarks are noted in medical records so they can be tracked incase of conditions like skin cancer
@@phoebegreig6523 Excellent point! I knew that at one time, I'm sure.
Seriously, that nurse needs to learn how "Burden of Proof" works. I don't understand how so many people make it to adulthood without learning such a basic thing.
Like, what the fuck?!
Story 2: I suggest not telling your kids you've started a "college fund". They are bound to think of that money as "theirs" by right. Just bung it in a savings account and say nothing about it until the time comes. I'm willing to bet that child would not have dreamed of refusing further education if he thought he'd have to make his own way in the world.
As a compromised, I would suggest (if I was the parent) to my kid to show us the plan first, than I'll unlock 50k. I mean, 50k to start a business for the first time is a very very big amount to start on : to put thing in place, get his first financial stuff & etc. Because guess what, if what is planned is a least a little bit of a good idea, a lot more than 400k will be need on it and who will put their house/car / anything in garantee : not the 17 years old that just started. If with 50k, he can't do what some start with 0$, he will at least got a real experience, maybe get a little older and realised that what his parent is asking is not that much of deal... I mean, at least know how to his planning, contracting, evaluate production cost vs pricing and basic stuff for when you'll do your first taxes claim!
@nicolasjoly6948 Absolutely. An excellent point. They should present the sort of business plan a bank would demand before making a loan of an equivalent amount.
Yes. I would release a portion of the money to the son, and make him sign a contract that he will get the rest once his business shows signs of being successful. The contract would also stipulate that if he pisses away the first part of the money, he forfeits the rest.
When my mum was pregnant with me in 1969, my 10 year old brother had found a stray cat, put it inside his coat and brought it home. The cat jumped out of the coat and startled my mother. When I was born, I had a small birthmark on my forehead that looked like a cat with its tail up in the air towards my hairline ! It faded as I got older, unlike my other birthmark which is a big red patch on the back of my head ! Even now at 53, people ask ‘What’s happened to the back of your head ?’ (They think it’s burnt)
I can't be the only one who laughed at the "Mistaken for a Unicorn" part, LOL

Oh, that woman would have been in jail. You don't put your hands on someone else's kid and you certainly don't pull their pants down. Wow. Insane.
Some parents believe in spanking as a punishment which I don’t understand that’s only going to make the child hate the parent more and give them PTSD, why was that even a thing in the first place
Story 5: My late fiancée wore sports bras all the time. It was just her style. No one got after her for it, no one told her to cover up. As far as I know, no one had a problem with it. I will also say, if someone did that to my kid, they would of had their ass beat. I would have then called the police. Yes officers, I caught her sexually assaulting my child, so I did what any parent would have done, and kick her ass.
Never mind that-barging into someone's room and complaining they're "indecent" is unforgivable in the first place no matter what they wear. If it's my damn room NOBODY has any right to complain that I'm "indecent", whether I'm butt naked or dressed for the North Pole.
The Nanny and the chair comment made me spit my tea out. Absolutely brilliant. (GRANNY for American watchers)

Story 5: i dont have a child but rest assured that if i ever decide to have one and something similar happens, i might be going to jail but the assailant would be three meters underground.
College fund vs business story: NTA! OP, I agree with you. Most kids (I don't care that he's 17, 18 or 19, he's still a kid) fresh out of high school have absolutely no idea of what goes into running a business, let alone a successful business. What you described as courses he should take at the community college is the bare minimum he should have. If he were smart, he would take you up on your offer to work at your business part-time, getting experience, while going to school to see how it operates, even if it's not in the field he wants to get into. And if he agreed to that you should have him work in several different departments/areas to see how each operates and what has to be done for them, separately and together.
Spanking a sick OP story: Good grief! Like little kids never lie when they don't get their way. And given how little actual fabric can be found in many bikini's at most pools and beaches, a sports bra and shorts is extremely modest.
Kid didn't even know how to work. Thinks "being a successful CEO of a business" means hot and cold running secretaries and days on the golfing range. After the first 16 hour day (without making a single sale) he'd be having second thoughts. I had to educate one of my kids around that age on what it takes to run a business, let alone a successful one. All a young person like that has seen of business is Dad taking money out of an ATM. Like it's a money tree lol.
There's a reason mom and dad called it a 'college fund' and not an 'f--- around and find out fund'. They have a lot more experience and business savvy than junior does! But he doesn't know enough to know how little he knows yet.
@@johnrussell5592 Saw a bumper sticker once which said "Send your kids to work while they still know everything".
Karen:"NO BABY HAS A BIRTHMARK LIKE THAT!"
Doctors and Midwives:"And THIS is why WE'RE the experts and NOT you!"
When I hear stories about the birthmark it reminds me of what happened to my mother In the early sixties my sister was diagnosed with Leukemia and had a survival rate of ZERO percent with only 4 drugs available. Because of the side effects she was bruised and swollen (Prednisone) and one of the women in the waiting room said to the others "that is what you see family court". My mom was so upset the nurse put her in another room. My sister only lived 4 months from diagnosis. I got the impression that person thought she was a know-it-all and not a concerned person.
That is so mean 😭 I'm sorry to hear that entire thing!
@@s0lastsummer7 thank you for your kind words.
I’m sorry if somebody says that about your child I believe you have every goddamn right to haul off and smack a bitch
As far as getting a baby tattoo….This was a long time ago…the baby is is now in college… I was friends with the Parents. His Mother was a Karen. She was very pleased that the first grandchild was a girl. She always wanted a girl instead of the 3 sons that she did have. Once she learned a girl was on the way she went all out to get girly things for the baby. She demanded to have total control over designing the nursery, the crib the furniture & artistic designs. Only her outfits could be worn by baby. When my friends rejected her nursery plans she built a nursery of her design in her house. She then demanded to having the baby over every weekend at her house. Then Karen began talking about retiring so she could take over the baby full time during the workweek. FIL didn’t like that one bit. When my friends told Karen that the wife’s sister was going to be the caregiver instead. Sister had a toddler & had a degree was in child care. This really angered Karen.
To the heart of the story. Karen was allowed to take the baby (around 6 months old) for a Saturday morning. When Karen & baby returned Karen had taken the baby to get her ears pierced. My friends were furious at such entitlement. The parents immediately removed the starter earring & told Karen she had lost all baby privileges for the foreseeable future. Karen tried to get other friends & relatives on “her side” but she was met by a solid wall of rejection. For several years the only time Karen saw her granddaughter was at family gatherings. No solo times allowed. My friends had a second child~a son. Karen wasn’t interested.
The story with the sick girl, depending on where she lives, that was a sexual assault. Where I love (Michigan USA) there is no statute of limitations for most sexual assaults. Get Karen's name on a list!
Story 1 that boss is committing workplace discrimination by saying that only the OP is not allowed to bring food from home.
And her actions say she knows that too.
Non to mention her sexist comments that only men can be great chefs. If that is not a slap at her own sex, I don't know what is. The woman's attitudes and inappropriate flexing in telling OP he cannot bring in home cooked for for lunch should all be reported to HR AND her immediate supervisor.
@@tinydancer7426 I whole heartedly agree with that.
She needs to be fired if not demoted because she is creating a hostile work environment.
And the OP needs to start recording all of his interactions with her.
@@alphaleader870 So right with the recording. I wouldn't say she is toxic in the workplace, but that crap about banning him from bringing food from home is ridiculous.
Story 5, I'm not surprised that Karens kid lied to his mom to get op in trouble. Leave it to a Karen to not listen to the truth, berate op, and blame someone. It's Karens fault for thinking she can spank the hosts teenager. Of course op was going to scream for her grandpa. After seeing the horrid state poor op was in naturally everyone was going to scream and tear into Karen. Not surprised that Karen screamed back to insult and accuse op. Apparently hearing that her husband was against her tipped over the edge. Not surprised that Karen tried to refuse to pay for the damage til op's grandma threatened to press charges. It was karma that she lost the kid to her husband and now everyone wants nothing to do with her. Hopefully the kid learned a lesson that day, don't be like a Karen.
10:03 He left his shoes on the floor?! Someone call the campus police! 🙄
Story 2: THANK YOU!!!! If I remember right, the original comments on the post ripped OP a new one, with the YTA votes. But, he's just trying to give his son the most help he can, even if it seems like there's a couple strings attached. Since OP even clarified that he would pay separately for the community college, and then also give his son the college fund once he had a business plan.
There was a story where a mother did tattoo her baby, but it was a medical tattoo. The baby was an identical twin and had either allergies or needed medicine and one of the parents kept mixing up the babies. So they got a medical tattoo on the babies foot, I think, so when it was time to give the baby the medicine it wouldn't go to the wrong twin. Not the same type of tattoo you were thinking, but it is a tattoo.
Story 6 reminded me of something!
Honestly, I'm a legal adult and I don't seem to be more than 15. There was a specific situation in November last year when I ordered a martini on the beach and the waiter's reaction was simply hilarious. Normally I already hand my ID, that time i just forgot. The conversation went something like this:
Mom: My daughter wants to order a drink.
Waiter: Great. So, what's it going to be?
Me: A martini, please.
He just stopped everything he was doing, looked at me in pure disbelief, then at my mother, and me again. Literally put his notebook down and stared with such a comical shocked face for a few seconds that i grabbed my bag and just I immediately asked him if he wanted my ID.
It was a fun day, but I found out I hate martinis, lol.
But just talking about Story6 for a second, nothing justifies this woman's attitude, for God's sake, what is the problem with people with underage children and alcohol???
As a visual person I have the perfect mental image of that waiters expression and I can’t stop laughing
Story 1: Karen is jealous as hell and stops short of trying to impose her will on OP.
Story 2: OP is defintely NOT the AH. The things OP is asking of his son are entirely reasonable. He doesn't want his son to blow the $400K college fund on some hare-brained get-rich-quick scheme.
Story 3: Karen may have had her heart in the right place but her refusal to back down is what makes her a Karen.
Story 4: Karen may be too tight to get a hotel room but that doesn't give her the right to take over her daughter's dorm room.
Story 5: That is indecent assault as well as assault on a minor. That aunt has NO right to do what she did and deserved to lose her kids in the end.
Story 6: It is illegal to obtain alcohol for an underage person on licenced premises (e.g. a pub or a club) in the UK under Section 149 of the Licensing Act 2003. I suspect it took place in Somerset as the area is known for scrumpy and some of it is so strong that it is only sold by the half pint. The Karen clearly didn't know that scrumpy is different to keg ciders such as Strongbow that are on tap. The OP should've ejected the Karen and banned her. As the manager, the licence to sell alcohol will most likely be in her name and therefore her responsibility. Also as the licence holder, she has the right to ban Karen. Fortunately, Karens are rare in the UK due to the numerous zero tolerance policies in place towards such entitled and abusive people.
#1 What a petty boss that Karen is. She kept it well hidden for a long time, but her true nature exploded for everyone to clearly see.
#2 The son want to start a business WITHOUT the tools needed to actually start a viable business. Just giving him the money would mean that it'll all go to waste on a business destined to fail.
#3 What a prejudiced Karen jumping to conclusion without any valid reason.
Story 1: OP should just go ahead and report this one over the boss' head here. If Boss won't put it in writing, she knows this won't hold up under any scrutiny by her bosses, and she's just throwing an adult temper tantrum because someone's a better cook than her. Really, Karen? There are billions of people in the world, and a fair number of them cook. What are the odds that you'd be the best cook in the world?
Story 2: The doctor assuming Karen's heart is in the right place is probably giving her more credit than she deserves. Some people just love feeling self-righteous.
Story 5: I'm amazed that that demon from Hell left the house without a bruised jaw or a black eye. Barging into rooms without permission, wrongful accusations, physical assault on a minor, and destruction of property. Do that to my daughter, and I hope you enjoy having dentures for the rest of your life. At least she eventually lost custody of her kids.
Dentures? HA! She'd be lucky if she still had a JAW by the time I was done with her!
Story 2. I wonder if the son wanted in on an NFT scam. 🤔
Or start a crypto exchange. The kid has a lot going for him. He can get any education/training he wants and likely will not be in debt and he has parents with good heads on their shoulders to advise him. The only thing he has going against him is the brain of a 17 year old boy, and we all know how messed up that can be. Hopefully he grows out of it and sees how smart his parents are. I give him 3-4 years before he gets out of the current phase.
My youngest who is 12yrs old now was born with a strawberry birthmark on her back. It appeared within her first month of life and it was bright red and raised up quite a bit from her skin. It’s basically a bunch of blood vessels really close to the surface of her skin. The bright redness will and does eventually fade away by age 10 as my daughters did, but the birthmark itself is still there just extremely pale now.
Okay, first story, how in the world could that be mistaken for a tattoo? It's far too indistinct and uneven. If it is a tattoo, it was put on by a blind tattooist with Parkinson's Disease.
Been looking for someone to point out that looked exactly like a birthmark. Unless it was a photo of the BM at a later age and the mark as a baby was a lot darker. But still, it seemed neither the nurse or the EM were close enough to make that call. Birthmarks still look like birthmarks up close and personal.
Heart birthmarks are totally a thing. I'd tell you all about someone who as a baby had a heart shaped mark on his bum just like a Carebear, but he's sick of us telling people about it so that's all I say.
Not gonna lie, If someone barged into my kid's room and assaulted them I would lose my shit. You dont put your hands on other people children.
I remember listening to the story of identical twins being mixed up. The mother got a dot tattooed on one twins earlobe to distinguish them. The grandmother was asked to identify which twin was which and couldn't, then got upset when the parents told her of the freckle tattoo.
Story 5... I would have totally called the police and filed charges. Trespassing, Assault, Would call pulling off her shorts sexual assault, vandalism (one for each project destroyed, and another for the supplies)... WOuld have got the kid out faster.
I love food. I'm no Michelin chef and the only top chef I can think of is Gordon Ramsey. I know what I CAN cook would never appeal to him because of his strict standards but I'm not going to be selfish and tell him he can't do something because I'm jealous. Like... REALLY Karen?

A funny little tidbit for story 5: The EM is also an antivaxxer. The kid’s shots came courtesy of the father, who was “in the doghouse” for doing it.

Story 3: Go Grandmother! I love what she said to defend her Granddaughter, it was hilarious!
If my kid went into someone's room they weren't supposed to be in, then came back to me saying the person in the room had spanked him for going into the room, my response would be, "Well, you shouldn't have went into the room."
What kind of nurse doesn’t recognize a birthmark?
Yeah, they're very distinct. And touching them is also another giveaway, they feel like normal skin. Tattoos, moles, and sometimes even freckles feel different.
Hell, I have a birthmark on my thigh that looks like a paw, and lots of nurses were confused when they seen it years ago when it was darker, but they still knew it was a birthmark
Perhaps a young one just out of school? Even so, she should never have asked the mother for proof it wasn't. Whose business was it even if it had been a tattoo?
Second story: Start a business is a great idea if done right. But is the fastest way to jump into debt and possible bankrupsy if you do it with no knowledge at all.

What about Nigella Lawson? She's relatively famous...
3rd story. I'm in love with the grandma after the chair leg comment, never heard that 1 b4.
I got asked if I was 15 when I was 21. I was insulted, but actually had ID and SHOWED it. I also immediately began re-growing my moustache(couldn't grow a beard worth beans until I was 25, but was able to grow a decent moustache since turning 18, lol)
That poor kid having some crazy lady attacking and destroying her property when she is sick already.
My favorite story is the ❤ shape birthmark. The grandmother is my absolute favorite human being ever! I’ll never look at unicorns the same again! 😂😂😂😂😂
You can get medical tattoos for babies where the doctor has it done for identical twins if one has medical issues
Story #5 reminded me of the time my dad accused me of stealing one of his CDs when I was 11 years old. I told him I didn't have his CD but he didn't believe me, then he proceeded to trash my room looking for it.
When he didn't find his CD he told me to clean up the mess he made and left. I sat in my room, in tears, for over an hour cleaning up the mess.
Story 5: that’s physically and sexual assault. She shouldn’t be allowed to have a child. I don’t respect people who hit children, if you wouldn’t hit your child then don’t hit your child on their ass, it’s no different then straight up hitting them.
I'd like to correct the OP in Story #4 and say that it wasn't the Karen and the husband who thought they could use the roommate's space. It was just the Karen. The husband even said he knew they should have gone to a hotel.
Obviously, he was brow-beaten pretty bad by his wife and couldn't do anything but agree. This would be to his detriment, though. Now the daughter won't want anything to do with him by proxy. And if she does, he had better have a straight jacket harness with a matching muzzle for Karen when he visits again.
If the boss says it's only you who can't bring food then say that you wonder what a lawyer would say about how they are discriminating to you
As for story number 5:
If any other grown adult tried to do that to me or my kids, I wouldn't settle the case out of court. They'd get punished to the fullest extent of the law. Karens need to re-learn the idea "keep your hands to yourself"!
For those saying they should have pressed charges in Story 5:
They did. Just not immediately.
Just to put it in before anyone reminds us that kids can drink in the U.K. from the age of 5 (with sensible limits, of course) that's AT HOME. Licenced premises have a legal limit of 18.
I think young people in Italy can drink at the dinner table with family too, right?
@@Kayenne54 a lot of the rest if Europe can drink beer and wine from 16 with spirits at 18. Think it may be 14 in Greece for beer and wine and I think in Denmark it's 14 for beer and cider only. In UK you can technically have glass of wine with food I think from 14 or something but I've never seen anyone do it. Defo the actual law in France and Italy I've seen a kid that looked upon 10 with a very small bit of wine in a glass in a restaurant. With her parents so I don't see the issue.
But mum buying her son an 8% pint of scrumpy...well most places I been to won't even sell 8% scrumpy in a pint to a grown adult. Only sell in half pints as it really hits you. Definitely not a gateway drink as the barman said.
I actually don't see an issue with a young man having one pint with his mum at say 15/16 but you can't ask a licensed premises to knowingly serve to you as they can get in real trouble. It's a personal up to £10k fine for the person who serves them/sells them the booze so keep that sort of stuff at home where it's actually perfectly legal too. Get him a nice kopparberg or a bulmers 4% sweet and fizzy one step up from pop which is obvs what mum and son were expecting.
The story about the baby’s birthmark reminded me of another story I read. The couple had identical twins and one had a medical illness for several years and so they wouldn’t give the medication to the wrong twin, they had the sick baby tattooed with a brown freckle on his leg that would eventually fade away after several years.
That college fund story... OP should point out that it is a college fund so the parents putting those conditions is giving him the opportunity to use the fund for something other than college.
Story 3 - I'm going to have to remember Nan's threat. That is a thing of beauty!
There are plenty of famous female chefs. Martha Stewart, Paula Deen and Anne Burrell come to mind.
And there are actually female Michelin star chefs too! Angela Hartnet being a great example off top of my head.
Yeah, I would file multiple charges against that women. Assault with intent to injure on a minor, Child abuse because she physically left marks on a 16 year old’s body that wasn’t her own, and destruction of private property.
Story 6: "Also, I don't think 8% scrumpy is a good gateway alcohol for your kid." [ABSOLUTE.....LEGEND!!!] 🤣🤣🤣
1st story when I was a kid & I went to summer camp every day my grandma (who i lived with during the summer) would pack me these great lunches! Counselors & campers would always say how awesome they were
Well fast forward to the last day of camp award day & I would always get the award for best lunch! I loved it & would always show my grandma but I was also between the ages of 6-12 when this happened
I had a coworker that would get all pissy and jealous if someone brought something delicious to a potluck at work. If others got compliments on their food, she would go on and on about her dish, and would also say she had a recipe for what you brought and her recipe was so much better. She would be happy to give you her recipe. We would always just tell her no thanks. That would always put her in a bad mood then. She was just an average cook and not the chef she imagined herself to be.
There should be a law stating that self-entitled people should have to spend a MINIMUM of 6 months in sensitivity training. They're the ones that need it the most.
#1: OP shoud have asked for permission to have his fiance make his lunch. #3: I want to see Nan turn Karen into a unicorn.
Best scrumpies I've ever had were Ol' Rosie and Legless But Smiling
Wow. Women generally have to be REALLY bad to lose custody, with the exception of if the father has connections with local police, the judge, etc. What the heck did that abusive, crazy wacko DO to lose custody of her kids?!
Story 5: if a Karen ever tried that with me, I’ll have some broken teeth as a nightstand souvenir. Homey don’t play dat 😠
Story 5: They should have filed a police report and sued the woman not only for assault but for the destruction of property as well
Story 5: god bless the grandfather for keeping his composure enough to limit his rage to swearing. If I were in his shoes, nothing short of police would be able to tear me off of retaliating against that woman
I would have quit as the manager of the bar. "They wanted a MAN-ager? Well now they've got one."
Story 5 I would have called the police the moment I saw the marks.
Story 2: ah, yes. Nothing like saying "if you wanna start a business, you have to prove you're somewhat responsible. That's literally the only condition for you to do what you want. I'm paying for tbe lessons, you just gotta take them" to be super controlling and assholish
