As I was listening to story 3, I was going "Don't be American; don't be American; don't be American … DAMN IT!"
😂
And people like that are the ones who give the homeland a very big black eye.
No need to guess why we're called "Ugly Americans".
I was doing the same but "Don't be British". Lots of Brits holiday in Spain and far too many of them are a disgrace.
And I was thinking that's got to be an American
@@annalieff-saxby568 where do you think Americans get it from?
Story 4: no Karen, YOU should have known the hurricane was coming and moved your car. Your car has wheels, my gutters don’t.
But OP'S gutters *do* have wiiiings...
Unfortunately, Karens develop selective blindness/deafness when you use logic against them...
Sorry, Karen, gutters flying off in a hurricane is “an act of God” and isn’t covered on any sane person’s insurance.
EDIT: Karen’s repeated harassment should have justified more visits from the police. Waiting until OP was alone constitutes stalking. And finally, since Florida is a Stand Your Ground state, OP would have had cause to greet Karen with a loaded shotgun.
Obvious, and stupidly executed, attempt at insurance fraud. The OP isn't responsible for what's classified as an "act of god".
Should be covered by a standard household insurance within the traditional category of act of God. At least, it would be in England.
That family in the restaurant. Oh boy. " in America we can have the wifi password anywhere we want " That's bullshit. I've never been in a restaurant or any other place of business that gave me their private password.
The EB was talking out her ass and thinks she can tell businesses what to do just because she’s an American.
I would be embarrassed and ashamed
That Karen sounds like the type to constantly beg their neighbors for their wifi passwords and say "it'll only be a few days until ours is set up", when in reality, they're just leeching off their neighbors until they notice and change their password. Then the Karen goes batsgit crazy
There are a couple restaurants near where I live that have a public unsecured wifi and a secondary secured wifi that they change the password once a month and the only way to get the password is to order food.
Both places are fairly expensive so rarely do people go to those places more than once a month.
But yeah that Karen was batcrap crazy.
Story one. I can relate to this, as Welsh is my first language, but I’ve spent most of my life in England. When ever I was travelling back home to Wales, on the trains I would be reading the local newspaper from the town I lived in England. I had a gang of Welsh speakers join the train, they then started to talk about me in Welsh. Not thinking that I understood every word of their conversation about me. When the train was approaching the station that I had to get off, they had put one of their suitcases by the seats that I was sitting in. So by doing this it was blocking me in, so I turned round to them and spoke to them in Welsh. Telling them to move it so I could get off. Their faces were a picture
The fact that the neighbor keeps repeating “lawsuit” says that she knows she doesn’t have a legal case & is just trying to scare money out of OP. If possible, OP should press charges for harassment & extortion, possibly a restraining order too.
the police officers in story 3, adding the fine is the cherry on top! perfect way to end the evening
I love how in the 2 Story the customer sided with Op and called Karen nuts
OP and the regular using gaslighting techniques for good in that one 🤣🤣
“Gonna fix (OP’s) ass? Congratulations, you just escalated to a threat. I’m calling the police now.”
Need more people like them around
I don't think her Husband lied about yelling at OP and if he did, he shouldn't! He should join the masses who are saying stuff like "If he called you a Bitch, you were probably acting like one!" and "Yeah, 🤬 off, I'm NOT doing that, you'll just have to accept that 💩 don't roll the way you want and you gotta put up with it.."
Story 1
Spanish speaker in a spanish-speaking country here: I was in line at the supermarket in front of 2 US tourists and I don't know who was called a "slow b*tch", me or the cashier, but I turned my head and said in English "Oh, that's just lovely!" That shut them up. (At least they didn't start drama like the family in story 3!)
Most languages are spoken by millions of people, don't assume strangers can't understand you.
Portuguese speaker here.
Especially english lol, that's almost a universal language, especially here in portugal
First story: I’ve had that same encounter with two old biddies when I was stationed in Germany. First they thought I was African (which I am not) and then proceeded to talk crap about me when we were all in an elevator of a dept store. I turned around and spoke to them in fluent German that they need to watch what they say and walked off the elevator at my floor and their mouths were agape.
A friend shared a story. As swedish citizens two girls was out partying in new York city. 2 guys come in, and starts making remarks about all the girls in the bar. In swedish. Lets say if they would have spoken english, i dunno if they would have been arrested, but definitely punched.
After maybe 15-20min, one of the girls just went up to these guys and went. "Yo, what's up?" in swedish.
The description of the look these 2 guys had was "priceless and it looked like they wanted the lightning to strike them" they left within 2minutes.
No matter what language, treat people like yourself would want to be treated. 1
@@mrborgeusborg9164 Ah, yes, the "deer in headlights" look. 🤣
@@kitarrah1422 exactly.
A tornado hit my next-door neighbor's house. When it did, it pulled up her carport's cement sinker (think something the size of an ocean buoy) out of the ground, tossed it over our shared fence, hit our hurricane awning, & pulled the awning 3/4 of the way out of our concrete wall. Thankfully, the window/windowsill wasn't broken & the fence was still intact.
We sent the repair bill to our own homeowner's insurance company.
This is why you have insurance.
I was half expecting the Karen in the first story to berate OP for "eavesdropping"...
Gutter lady needs to activate those 2 Karen proof words...Restraining Order.
When I was in the U.S. Navy I was stationed in Naples Italy. I often saw American tourist doing things like this all the time, at least once a month during the summer season. Thankfully I spoke good enough Italian that the tourist did not realize that I was an American. The places where this would happen knew I was an American but did not Rat me out to the Karen Americans since I was speaking Italian. I was embarrassed realizing that I would be judged due to these idiots actions.
I also loved the they would use the "I'm an American, I have Constitutional rights", not in Italy, you don't.
Yep, during my Navy deployment back in the early 1980s, I saw plenty of the "Ugly American Tourist". The meme is spot on.
Very likely those "constitutional rights" they think they have are imaginary even in the USA. 🤷🙄💋💖
We hate them in Europe actually. Especially after 2 pilots (2 seater) American plane broke SEVERAL rules and regulations in the Italian alps, hit a cable car, and caused around 20 people's deaths.
The US is not the only country to produce its share of the 'ugly', but unfortunately - maybe because of its population size - it tends to produce more than its share. one of the major issues that we are talking about tourists vice travellers. There is a major difference between the two as the latter have endeavoured to learn about the country and its people and language etc while the former are doing ten countries in three days and never appreciate what they are seeing and experiencing. Some years ago, I was aboard a cruise ship in the Med. We arrived in Genoa where there were three ways to get into the town proper. By chartered boats which showed you the waterfront, by bus/taxi or even walk. We received a copy of the boat timetable, and I sallied forth to board and go to town. The due time arrived; no boat. No issue. After about 15 minutes, a group of Americans arrived for the next boat; no show on time. After about 10 minutes a couple of the men started to complain loudly about incompetence, negligence, why are we waiting, the cruise line should be sued etc, etc, etc. I had enough and snaped, "Lighten up, I've been waiting longer than you. Welcome to the Med and Mediterranean time. This is NOT the Staten Island ferry, this is Italy. Sure the boat isnt here now but it will be soon. So just enjoy the sun or else go get a cab." A few minutes later it arrived and ran fautlessly for the rest of the day. Re the restaurant. Sounds fabulous. And the sort of place I always seek out. ON that same trip, I went ashore in Barcelona and passed all the los touristas places on the avenue. A few streets away I found a restaurant with some Spaniards inside and the owner. He gave me a table and said "You are off one of the cruise ships?" I replied yes but not real keen on mingling with tourists. I had a superb lunch, he joined me for a beer or three and we had a darned good time. I have other stories like that. THAT is what travel vice tourism is about.
@@lancerevell5979 We naval people are fortunate that we learned the right way and as a result made multo amici
Story 4: I have been in dozens of hurricanes...in multiple states...and never ONCE have I seen anyone rip the gutters off their house as a precaution. That woman is NUTS!
The moment she said she would sue OP should have immediately stated "Since you have threatened litigation you must now speak only through my attorney. No direct contact."
OP definitely needs to have an attorney sent a Cease & Desist letter. If that does not stop the harassment then OP needs a No Contact / Restraining Order issued.
Story 3 reminded me of a nice gesture I got years ago. My parents and I had a holiday to Malta (lovely place) when I was about 9 years old. I was raised to be polite and respectful (this is important). We also preferred to eat at more down to earth local restaurants rather than touristy places (better to give business to locals).
One was a lovely little restaurant, where the owner was also chef/waiter - it was quite small but with a welcoming vibe (there was a couple of tables with locals eating). The owner would regularly check to see if we were satisfied with our meal (we had swordfish to eat - so delicious). Saw the guy had a cute pet monkey through the window to the back garden (even saw the owner give the monkey it's own lunch). After the meal the restaurant owner came over to the table and told me that I was 'the best behaved child to have eaten at his restaurant' and gave me a nice little badge (which I would regularly wear for many years since).
Now I'm older, I realize that he must have had tourists visit who must have brought bratty children (presumably running around screaming) - so I feel glad that I and my parents gave him good custom that day with no stress.
Oh yeah that’s an old trick, I bet he had badges made up in bulk to give to kids who were being good.
It encourages them to continue it and makes his life easier as a restauranteur.
@@DC-bp8sx The badge was a fairly unique type (not the plastic badges - it was metal). You are probably right that the guy had similar little 'gifts of thanks' to other respectable kids. It was really nice for me as a child back then to get a little appreciation for being polite (my parents let me tell our order - which was a good way of being included in the experience).
I have worked in service jobs that exposed me to the 'bad apple families' as customers - so I know how demoralizing it is when you have to 'just smile' from rude entitled families (even tourists). I have had good families as customers and they have given me a positive boost whenever I have served them.
Story 4: Yeah, it was definitely a scam attempt, and not a good one either, literally trying to claim damage after damage (with the car dent being the only actual bit of damage) so OP would hand over money. And the manipulation attempt, oh boy, threatening to be a bully to the kid over this is just bad
I don't think she's going to sue because she knows that she isn't in the right and any judge is going to laugh her out of court. She's just trying to scam and/or blackmail OP out of her money.
Of course the very thing that showed it was a scam was the fact she demanded money out of pocket no insurance company none of that stuff. And her increase aggressiveness when the poster told her to take it up with insurance just showed that she knew she didn't have a case and insurance would tell her to get lost. The fact she didn't immediately bring them up herself just shows This more. And the poster really needs a Slightly tougher Spine the very thing that showed her neighbor as a terrible person was how she dealt with her dog she doesn't try to control them and instead let them be a terror. H*** the way she's describing it something tells me she knowingly lets him out into the yard when she knows the poster is doing something just to make the poster stop doing it. A****** Karen's with dogs like that normal Do this type of behavior Thinking they're sneaky about it. But as established she's not very smart Which is the usual, Karen's are bullies relying heavily upon intimidation to get what they want. And then get too full of anger and blood in their already small brains when they don't get immediately that they dig their grave deeper
Karen:"I'LL SUE YOU AND YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY!"
Insurance Company Legal Department:"Give us your best shot..."
Last Story: If it went to court she well lose and OP can file a counter suit to sue her for harassment along with extortion.
That's a frivolous civil procedure leading to criminal charges. Remember that harassment and extortion are felonies.
@@Kualinar , and file for a restraining order! It just might cause her to have to sell her home and move away from OP!!
And attempted insurance fraud (big nono!).
It won't even make it To that point. Her tactics in the last update and show that she knows If it even so much is made up there she be humiliated and probably even have to pay out of herself. I know this because my own landlord is trying this s***, Even to the point of making a fake serving letter, Because he thinks me and my mother are stupid. In this day and age of the Internet I had the informum of this you could tell the difference between a fake and a real one. And we know hes not gonna bring us the core hes just trying to evict us early dissolve started from the whole Is rent Being put on hold by government during the lock down. Me and my mother who know our landlord is a piece of s*** Make d*** well sure to pay him on time. My mother is a stay-at-home nurse Whose client also happens to live with us so we're good on that. And I worked at a place that didn't Close Or let people go during the lock down. So income coming in didn't change, And my mother for a second thought maybe we could save and deal with it later during that renting but it was only for a second before she chastised herself and I did as well lol By reminding that this isn't the 1st time the a****** has made up on paid rent numbers despite receipts Being put in his face multiple amount of times when he tried this. And what do you know this is like the 8 attempt. Now hes trying to do the repairs he was supposed to have done Hoping To avoid violations that he knows hes on the hook for not that it's going to work it's not that me or my mother care it's nice because their bad days and we're leaving at the end of the year any d*** way. Maybe sooner or arrangements are finished earlier than believed. He's just an impatient idiot who wants to sell the place while the market is still high. And put himself in a position where he can't background it's pretty much The standard of Karens of all types to double down And not walk away when the getting is still good
@@Kualinar not according to woke anti American democrats. Being a law abiding citizen is a felony and being a criminal means you are a good citizen. Don't vote Democrat.
"But in America we can yadda-yadda-yadda."
"Well, guess what? We're not in America."
Pro tip: If you have WiFi for staff or personal use only, don't broadcast the SSID, pick something weird for the SSID, pick something even weirder for the password, and turn on MAC address filtering.
i mean or you could just tell people you dont have wifi as there is no reason to go through so much hassle for a few Karens. the convo goes
"hey do yall have wifi"
"no sorry"
end of convo anything pass that is mute and unneeded.
@@leemitchell7841 But it'll show up on their connections page. Either give your network an SSID that doesn't reflect the name of your business or don't broadcast it. Preferably, do both. Then, if someone asks, you can just tell them you don't have WiFi. It's hard to say that when the name of your network is staring them in the face.
Hearing the story, my presumption was they saw a network with the restaurant's name and assumed it was for public use. Then they went full Karen when they were told no.
Story Three: that restaurant has been around since the 1940s in Spain? That means that family survived Franco's regime ( Google WW2 Spain and be horrified ). So a Karen would be nothing for them to deal with.
Story 3: ashamed as an American. Like the narrator, when I was overseas, I was on my best behavior, feeling that I, too, was representing my country. Specifically, I remember coming back to my hotel and having to walk by the elevators (lifts in the local parlance) and one of the hotel staff was instructing a family on how to operate the elevator with their key card. I politely waited as the staff member continued, but then he took notice of me and said that I could pass through the crowd. I said that I wouldn't dream of that and that I could wait until he finished. As I recall, the family went up in the elevator, and the staff member said to me that it wouldn't have been a bother if I had simply pushed through the crowd. I replied that I was a guest in his country, and as such, I should be as polite as possible.
But of course, stories like yours are not the ones shared on the internet. That aside, thank you for being a positive representation of our country.
The way I see it, we are taught to be good guests when we go to another person's house. Why should we be any less a good guest in another COUNTRY?
... nevermind. I see my error in thinking. Not everyone is taught to be a good guest at all. [sigh]
You shouldn't be ashamed to be an American because of people like that. Most Americans are polite when traveling abroad, you just don't hear about those because "Everyone was polite" isn't a very compelling story to tell.
Also, as someone who has lived in a tourist hotspot for my whole live (Las Vegas), I can personally assure you that rude tourists come from every country.
I am far too anxious to behave as badly as some people do in other countries. Then again, I am also far too anxious to _travel,_ so here we are.
@@kevinenter1636Um, sadly Americans have had the reputation of being pushy and entitled for a VERY long time
And yes, there are rude people from all countries… usually they come from money so they have that entitled mindset
@@organicmagic8822 I'm fully aware that the stereotype of the loud entitled American exists. And there certainly are loud entitled Americans. But they are far from being the majority.
You should never feel ashamed of your race, gender, nationality, ethnicity, etc, just because you hear a story of someone else who fits a negative stereotype
Dad says that the lady in the last story should just report her, again and let the officer come back and give the crazy neighbor a lecture on harassment and attempted fraud.
She needs to keep an air horn at her door. If the witch is there, blast her.
In the fourth story the court and the insurance industry consider hurricane to be act of God for damages. So unless they knew explicitly beforehand that the gutters we loose and coming off she has no case. I’ve been through this before, with an idiot neighbor in 2005.
I live in Florida. My neighbor never pulls in any of their items (e.g. hose, plants, planters, etc.) prior to a hurricane, including a huge grill. I fear the grill will be thrown onto my property, through the pool screen and into the pool. I thought they would be responsible. Nope. because it is hurricane related my insurance company covers it because the grill flying through space is an act of God. Yep. surprised that woman wasn't told the same.
The hurricane story. Yeah thats what I'm thinking. That the neighbor is trying to extort money from her.
2nd story: The kind of Karen that thinks she can get items for free because they hit the ground is the exact same kind of Karen that thinks a sign describing something in front of an entirely different item means we have to sell her the item for that price (Burger sign in front of bone-in pork chops, as an example).
Story 4 OP needs to call police every time she sees the Karen set foot on her property.
Of course, Karens will fake damage so they can get money 🤦🏻♂️
Why not? They fake injury and claim people assaulted them. This is no different. (smh)
And, if they can't fake the damage, they'll pretend that there is some damage.
Story 2: You break it, even on accident, you buy it. Even though nothing broke here, she wouldn't have any justification for getting those items for free
To be fair it might depend on how the cashier lady had piled the stuff.
Usually if you ask nicely and its actually an accident most people would be more than happy to help you.
thats not true? if you break something in a grocery store on accident you don't have to pay it, the store should have insurance. And if you break something, after paying but not leaving the till yet, they might even replace it. At least thats how it is for my country.
A replacement, maybe. But a free one, NAH! What would have been funny is if, after her husband got back into the car, he told her that he gave his phone number to the cashier and manager and told them to call him the next time (if there ever was a next time) she was in the store and started acting up, for them to call him. 😄
@@roni9192 That's how it works here too ..... unless the breakage (before purchase) is a malicious act. But then, of course, the police and the courts would be involved after the fact.
She definitely has no grounds to get the items for free. But I agree with the other responses, in that the items falling is no big deal unless they're damaged/compromised. Even then, the reasonable expectation is for the store to replace it with a like item.
In personal experience, I have brought things to the cashier which were already broken, even though I had no intent of buying them, just to report the items and have them pulled from stock. They thanked me, and I wasn't held liable for the items.
I've also purchased items which broke before I left - or was discovered to be already broken. The stores (this happened a few times) invariably allowed me to get another of the same.
But maybe that's just because I'm not an entitled bitch.
So an extreme measure can take in story 4 is call police non emergency number and ask them to trespass neighbor for harassment and then inform them(neighbor) you’re going to call police every time she steps onto property without your express consent to do so again this is the extreme measure that could be taken
Story 3: Darkfluff is right considering that people from the US are not look well on foreign soil and getting arrested in a foreign country can make your life hell as laws are different in the US like Japan who would force you to plead guilty because it actually give you a shorter sentences in prison then trying to fight for your innocence for reasons I still don't understand.
Just look at the case with Amanda Knox case of 2007 in Italy.
Japan's judicial system is a bit of an anachronism.
The premise "innocent until proven guilty" is a fairly new idea, only gaining traction in the Enlightenment. However, the heavy pro-individual lean of many Enlightenment values don't line up all that well with the traditionally pro-collective Japan. It's led to a very unique intersection of values, particularly in the (relatively) newly American influenced world.
I love Dark Fluff's 'Karen voice'. When I read articles about Karens I imagine them speaking in that voice. It is also good advise to talk about people when they aren't around 😂
As much as I love r/slash, I hate his “Karen” voice. Absolutely love him otherwise.
Why do these entitled people who think everything should be like thier home country bother traveling? just.. stay home and stop giving the rest of us a bad image we gotta clear just so we can enjoy some local sites
The entitlement is just over the top. People be nuts
Karen: Do you know who I am?
Me: No, but if can wait a few minutes I can have the police come down and run your fingerprints for you.
Hurricane damage story: It sounds to me like OP needs a restraining order against this nutjob.
And yeah not having Karen and OP daughter not talk is for the better.
Story 4: Sounds like Karen is scamming O.P..
When I worked at Subway while younger I had this couple come in to get a couple ov footlongs.
Started out really nice. And right before I finished, and they were about to pay, the guy tells me he didn't have any cash but he was going to trade me some crack rock for the meal.
The total was less than $20.
I tell him I can't do that, and that I don't smoke crack.
He tells me he will give me weed and crack.
Still tell him no, can't do that.
Then his girlfriend starts in yelling at him to "fvck me up" and he starts telling me that he is going to stab me.
Over me not wanting to trade food for drugs 😂
The guy actually stepped behind the counter to shove me down and when I hit the ground my coworker ran out and the couple took off.
They forgot the food.
And they forgot a backpack!
So we handed it over to the police, there were drugs in it but I'm not sure what was all in there, and I don't care.
I mentioned the incident to my owner and other coworkers, in case they came back looking for the backpack.
Not sure if they ever did come back.
But it was a hilarious and wild night.
Hahaha I love this guy he called op neighbor unhindge and a B man shout out to the man who said that
"Are you going to let him go hungry???"
"Yep."
I guess the EP on story 3 forgot that they were not in America so that rule didn't apply.
4. Sounds like a restraining order is in order.
“No, I don’t know who you are. But I do know what you are.”
"I hope I can remain friendly with your child" sounds like a threat to the child's health.
Story #1 is great. It's a global society now and a lot of people are multilingual. You just never know who can understand what. I took Japanese at Uni and can understand bits and pieces of many other languages. Language, linguistics and etymology have long been something of a passion of mine. It never pays to be prat, no matter the language. Sooner or later, it's bound to bite you in the backend.
that neighbour sounds like she'd worry sheep. i live next door to a similar incarnation.
I might have to reconsider my habit of binge listening to these stories, because the headaches from the repeated facepalms are becoming fierce.
I used to work retail. Any time somebody would whip out the "Do you know who I am?!" line, I'd immediately start going through stroke checklist. Memory loss is a sign of a potential stroke, after all. Admittedly, I do it to be factious, knowing they're just being Karens. But you never know.
For those curious, the stroke checklist is "FAST".
1: Face: Ask the person to smile. Does one side of their face droop?
2: Arms: Ask them to raise their arms above their head. Does one of them drift down?
3: Speech: Ask them to say a simple phrase. Is their speech slurred?
4: Time: If the answer to any of these is yes, call your emergency services.
As for the last story: Security cameras, or at the very least, audio recordings of her threats. Get a handful of them, then go to the authorities for harassment.
Story 3 : Pretty much only America has the tipping stuff. Everywhere else is pretty much no tipping culture. And waiters don't turn into Karens if they are getting low/no tips. In Asia, tipping is considered VERY rude even. And they are VERY lucky to not get their rental towed. Because that very often happens (ontop of the ticket).
This is the first time I’ve ever found a video that was brand spanking new…
That is very cowardly to hide behind a language barrier.
Attempted fraud. Attempted extortion. Harassment. Stalking! Flip this back on her, Story 4 OP!!
I was in Berlin in October and encountered a male British Karen. I asked my server to speak German to me so I can continue to learn German and speak it. The waitress was happy to speak her language to me.
She went to another table with a British family and started speaking German. He was very rude to the waitress. “Don’t speak German. We don’t speak German.” He could have asked nicely. She was taken aback by his tone. I could hear him from my side of the restaurant.
Be kind no matter where you are at. Everyone deserves to be treated with humanity and civility. Try to learn pieces of the language just to enjoy the experience more. “Danke-thank you” “tschüss- goodbye” ……important one: steht auf die Tür, links oder rechts-directions of which door opens on the subway 😂
Years ago, while working at a department store in the boys department, some lady was shopping for clothes for her son. The boy clearly wasn't interested. He was rifling through the racks of shirts and hiding behind them and other fun stuff kids do. He caused some shirts to fall to the floor, then, knocked some stacks of jeans over. I walked close to him, when he was away from her, and told him to "go tell your mother she wants you". I had heard the line before on a comedy show or cartoon or something. My 18 year old self thought it was cool.
Until I heard the kid calling out, "Mom, you want me! Mom! Hey, mom! You want me!"
I dipped out to the stock room! LOL
Damage caused by an act of nature during a storm
S4: OP should sue for the harassment and get a restraining order.
In the last story. OP should have a recorder with her every time she opens the door to Karen so she can have proof of the threats and demands of money. Plus shame she doesn't have cameras around her house as well. If OP did, then she would have pieces of evidence to prove that the guttering landed nowhere near her car. Plus because of what Karen has been doing to OP. OP could sue Karen for what she put her through.
I have been to, in order, Germany, Italy, Greece and Bulgaria. Most of my fellow soldiers tried to not stand out in a crowd. We always heard about "Ugly Americans ". And ordered NOT to be one

NEVER ASSUME that someone is not multilingual and can't understand what you are saying.
4:24 We had our house for sale some years ago. A Hispanic couple came through, discussing the features in Spanish. Little blonde Anglo me just listened. When they dissed the bedroom remodel we had done on our spare room (converted from guest bedroom to a home office for me). I asked the woman if she had any questions, and she wondered why we had painted the walls blue. Then she stopped abruptly, realizing that I had spoken Spanish to her, and she had responded in kind. The husband just looked at me, stunned. They hadn’t noticed the Spanish novels on my bookshelf. 😊
I believe the moment that woman changed from English, no words were nice . It's just a bonus that Op knew what she said
Related to the 3rd story:
This entitlement culture that some Americans bring when they travel to other countries is very embarrassing and is becoming an American stereotype and a shame to their country.
In my life, I've only ever witnessed 2 occurrences in which a person shouts at (like actual SCREAMING) and berates workers. First worker was a security guard and the other, a bank teller. And what do you know, both times, it's an American customer! I just don't understand how they can treat workers like that, let alone while being in another country!
Do people think grocery items are handled with the utmost care before they reach the actual store? Lol no!!
Last story: OP needs to put in for a restraining order against Gutter Trash.
I see what you did there. 😜
I used to work in hospitality and you always got some entitled/arrogant/ignorant types. According to people I know who still work in the industry it has got much more common over the years. I've been on many fully inclusive holidays myself where the alcohol really flowed like rivers and never saw any of us drunkards behaving that way lol
If I was that Regular, I'd have said "Or what? You can't get me fired because I don't work here and if you try to attack me, I'll knock you into next Tuesday and claim Self Defence!"
Story 1: *Karen look like she got hit by a f truck* had me giggeling ! 😂
The guy's great grandparents' restaurant and bar sounds lovely, dunno why, it just sounds delightful, retired regulars sitting at the outside tables in the nice weather, sipping their wines, having lunch, and relaxing.
Her house jumped out and hit my car!
That first story was gold!!! One would think with camera phones, security cameras, witnesses & reddit stories Karens would learn to cut the BS but then we would have these hilarious stories😅
Uuugh. I used to live in Europe and I’m American. I HATE HATE HATE it when Americans act like this in other countries. It makes me embarrassed to be American since we don’t ALL act like this. But then people start thinking that we do. Uuugh
"This would be unacceptible in America!"
Gee, Lady, you aren't in America! 🤨
I feel this way about everyone, personally. No matter what country you are visiting, just don't act like an entitled ass.
I've seen many different ethnicities act like entitled crazy people while visiting places.
I lived in a small tourist coastal town, it was so awful and also hilarious.
I can absolutely see a karen pulling that kinda crap. I had a customer who opened food items in the store before paying for them, ate them around the store and I had no clue she opened them and when I grabbed them to ring them up, the remaining contents tumbled onto the counter. She then tries to say she's not paying for that. I play super innocent smiles, pretending not to hear her cause her mouth was actually still full of cookies, ring it up and tell her to have a nice day and she ended up being killed by kindness, walking out of the store and probably leaving her eyes on the floor she rolled them so hard.
I lived in Singapore for a couple of years back in the 70's and I witnessed extreme disrespect and entitlement attitudes towards the locals from American servicemen and American tourists and it seems their manners haven't improved!
If neighbor in story 4 had a lawyer, she wouldn't be over at OP's non stop trying to harass her into making the payments. The first thing all lawyers tell their clients is to NOT DISCUSS THE MATTER OUTSIDE OF COURT OR ARBITRATION. So yeah no, this neighbor isn't suing anyone, they are just attempting to intimidate OP into giving them money to go away.
Story 2: if I were the husband I would just say " Yes dear, I went in and told him if he ever talked to you like that again I would end all of his financial problems."
I’m Chinese and I live in a very high Asian population place. I speak it fluently and I clearly look like an oriental person. I’m a manager for a retail pharmacy chain. I had a dad once insult us for messing up his daughter’s prescription. We didn’t. Then he starts talking to her in Chinese how Americans like to hurt foreigners like us. When I tried to talk he kept interrupting me so I yelled in Chinese “SHUT UP I’M TALKING.” That got the dad to shut up and freeze. Let just say the whole family was really embarrassed.
A few years ago family is at a restaurant when a tree falls on our car. We did tell the manager that we were going to report this to our insurance. Manager gave us his business card and we told him who our insurance was. We dealt with the whole thing like professionals. Our insurance deemed that the tree had fallen due to a rainstorm and that the damage was an AOG, act of god. Insurance still covered the damage but restaurant was not contacted or billed. We still frequent that restaurant.
Storms happen. This is why you buy insurance.
If your neighbors are clinging try to stay away from them. Also if she claims damages, you always insist on filming the interactions for both of your personal protection. If she says no then I get a lawyer.
OP needs to charge her with slander and extortion. That if nothing else can be done restraining orders on her.
*Story 2-* My hubby works at a roofing supply warehouse, and he *NEVER* yells or curses!!! Everyone he works with knows that! (Even the people that come to the warehouse often knows it too.)
One day, someone was in a bad mood, and my hubby was trying to load everything in the dudes truck. But, with how much he had, it was taking a long time, and it turned out all his stuff couldn’t fit. He ended up going into the office, and saying “your worker was just yelling at me and was calling me a bunch of names! You better do something about him!” So, my hubby’s boss went outside and saw that the old dude was talking about my hubby. The boss, looked at the dude, pointed to my hubby, and said “this is the guy that yelled at you?” The old dude said it was, and my hubby’s boss said, “you’re making that up. He’d never do that!”
That’s my favorite work story of my hubby’s! (Other then when he fell off the roof and broke both his feet…) *I LOVE MY HUBBY!!!* 🥰😘❤️❤️❤️
I haven't traveled out of the US since I was 16 & went to London, Sweden & Finland for 6 wks with my grandma & while this took place back in 1988 I was on my best behavior towards the locals, store owners ect! Never once did we act entitled & several times I even apologized for not speaking Swedish! While I haven't left the country in many many many moons I have traveled all around the continental US! I have always shown respect towards the locals of whichever state I was in & also when I was in Europe! There is absolutely no reason to go into someone's establishment act entitled & make an ass out of yourself! I just don't get what makes these moronic pos think that not only the world revolves around them but they're so entitled they can act like they are just pos who think because they are from the US they can do whatever! The time has come & it is NOW that we start treating people the way we expected to be treated
Story 4: The unhinged neighbor's own insurance companies would deal with it. And, they (the insurance co.) would subrogate and seek reimbursement from OP, who would add it to their own claim of storm damage.
For the auto claim, the total would be less than her deductible.
For the home claim, any dent or scrape to the enclosure around the outside HVAC unit, if that's the only damage the adjuster would laugh it off and not process the claim. If there's more extensive damage, she should be filing a claim not bothering her neighbor.
Oh, those Ugly American tourists! They are embarrassing us and give us a bad name. I speak passable Spanish and German, and it takes next-to-no effort to learn how to say Hello, Goodbye, Yes, No, Please, and Thank You in another language: it will take you far when you travel, because most people are happy you have learned some of their language.
Sadly, I have encountered an entitled American tourist in a small café in Guatemala: I translated his menu, helped him order, then reminded him that *he* was the foreigner.
Then there was the taxi driver in Munich who was shocked that I, *an American* could talk to him In German: "But, YOU'RE AMERICAN!!!"
A lot of Germans like to practice their English (me included). :-)
@@realulli ❤️
Last Story obviously fraud. Number to Sushi see her stepping foot on your property you tell her get off your property to call the cops to have a trespass. Close the door lock it still comes call the cops call record everything on your phone
Story 3 ..... some people don't mind being "the ugly american"
But the rest of us do mind...very much.
@@dinascharnhorst6590 Good thing there. Even at home, some people just don't mind being ugly individuals.
I feel that the police officer should have locked up “Karen” for filing a false insurance claim against OP and for extortion, and after the trial she would have been sentenced to prison for a long period of time, if I was a presiding judge, I would have given her life without parole or pardon.
I'm an American and genuinely embarrassed about how Americans behave overseas. My nephew travels a lot and tells the locals he's Canadian. He says it saves him a lot of grief.
Life is good! The alert for darkfluff came just as I was finishing a redwheel video.
I didn't check my notifications, but I'd just finished RedWheel's latest video and was looking to jump into Fluff's EP playlist.
@Ronnie McMains when I'm watching a video a banner comes up so I was able to go straight from one to another. I have been working through Dark's all reddit stories Playlist and it's a huge treat.
I really relate to Story 2 OP. Im known for being a nice person, but a small part of me enjoys the fact that I can get away with giving people a taste of their own medicine
Story 4: I feel bad for Op. She's just as much a victim of the hurricane as her neighbor and her entitled neighbor blamed her for damage that wasn't even caused. Seriously, how is it Op's fault that a hurricane hit and how is it her fault that there's very little damage on that entitled neighbor's property?
I’ve went through hurricane Fiona, and it was a pretty stressful time especially with all the damage we took and lasting 17 days without power. But that Karen, boy oh boy, she obviously has screws loose if she thinks OP is responsible for damaging her car. And she thinks a small golf ball sized dent was bad? I’ve seen a car roof caved in after a massive tree fell it. Just imagine the insurance cost needed to cover that, and she’s trashing OP over a small dent.
Heck I wouldn’t be surprised of the damage she took to her home wasn’t even that bad. Heck people on the north shore completely lost everything, and I don’t hear them blaming others for the damage.
Story 4: as someone who’s been through Hurricane Fiona and took damage from the storm, I can guarantee you that Karen is just completely insane, rather it’s because of stress or just being a total entitled B. OP should definitely sue her for the harassment and false accusations. How is it even her fault that she took damage some minor damage during a storm. From what I can tell OP took more damage than her neighbour, that Karen should be lucky that the damage she took was minor. Heck our whole yard was wrecked and our power lines were ripped down, and we were out for 17 days. Most of the stuff we lost were just branches and some shingles and my window screen.
People lost their homes during that storm, especially along the north shore of Prince Edward Island, which was completely demolished and is completely closed off now.
I didn’t hear anybody blaming others over the damage. Yet this Karen is crying over a small dent on her car which she claimed to cause thousands of dollars to replace? Lady, I saw a car’s roof caved in by a fallen tree. Imagine the insurance cost to have that replaced?
Had the woman in the last story just acted calmly and said something like I think your gutter hit my car and caused a dent, then I think it would have been likely that the insurance company would have just paid the 300-400 to fix the dent. Because I think all the work to refute that claim might have cost more.
A hurricane is an act of god. OP’s insurance doesn’t pay, the crazy neighbors does. I’d get her arrested for harrassment by calling the police each and everytime she comes over. Tell the cop I want her told she cannot come onto my property and if she does again it’s trespassing. My stepson, after threatening to murder me, got told that and he’s never harassed me again because of the threat of jail.
Insurance Karen wants a new car, and I'm betting the heat pump is about due to be replaced. She wants money directly from OP because she knows insurance isn't going to cover any of this, she just wants someone else to pay for her new items!
As an American, when we travel we try extra hard to be polite.
Story 4 Would be considered an act of God making OP not liable for the damages. Even if the gutter came off her house, Karen would have to deal with her own insurance company to get this fixed.
Story 1: My husband's father was born in Lebanon. His Mom is of English and German decent. My husband takes after his Mom, he is light skinned, very light skinned and has red/ blonde/ brown hair. We were in a store in a predominantly Arabic town. The other customers were speaking in Arabic and my husband asked in English where a certain food item was (yes he asked an actual employee) and the item is a Lebanese delicacy and the employee answered him and the several customers standing around made a comment in Arabic that we probably don't know how to make it or wouldn't eat it. My husband responded in Arabic that we make it and eat it all the time it was just the first time in that particular store. They stood there with their mouths hung open. It was hysterical! You never know who can understand what you say, so as my parents taught me and Thumper told Bambi, if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all!
All retail fast food and waiters/ waitresses should get one free pass to curse out a customer a day.
I'm hoping and praying that Story 4 continues onto People's Court or Judge Judy and we can watch the final chapter
In story 4 Karen should have been reported for threatening her daughter by saying she was not going to be nice to her daughter if the mother did not go along with her extortion attempt!!
Heck yeah!! New Fluff vid when I’m doing math!! Love that
The closest I ever came to being the ugly American is when I asked for cheese on my spaghetti at an Italian restaurant in Oxford England. The waiter looked disgusted and gave me a teaspoon of cheese LOL!
😂😂😂😂
"Sir, if you don't calm down, I'm going to ask for ketchup!" ;-))
