Love to see a good case of the entitled Karen getting put in her place. Karen apparently took it upon herself to harass another woman for speaking Welsh, because according to Karen the only acceptable language to speak is English. Fortunately, the mom was ready to put Karen in her place. Check out some more Karen drama with this salty Karen who claimed she was sold a faulty machine, until proven otherwise.

L This story took place 5 months ago, so it won't be exactly word for word, but I've remembered enough of the event to recite it (blah blah blah you all have heard it before). So my stepmom is British. Welsh to be exact. For those who don't know, Wales is the little hump west of England and North of Cornwall. It's a beautiful place known for sheep, alcohol, and mistakes involving

    Text - My stepmom is ethnically Welsh, but raised in England. Despite this, my Nain and Taid (Welsh for grandma and grandpa) insisted on her and her brother learning Welsh to preserve their heritage. The Welsh are a proud people, and so they wanted to ensure their children were as immersed as they could be. So she grew up bilingual, went to Uni, got a job working for a certain tech giant, and moved to the US to help train their staff. A few years later she met my dad and joined the family. At th

    Text - Now, we live in a large town in the midwest, being West of the Seaboard but East of the Mississippi, so while most people are open to outsiders, there's the usual few who just want to ruin everything. Around Christmas time, I was visiting home from college with my girlfriend, Charlie (who's awesomeness has been detailed in another post), enjoying some quality girls' time with my stepmom. We were in the mall, searching for some place that sold plastic modelling glue for my dad (he's really

    Text - We were standing in front of the mall map, trying to find the hobby store when I heard a loud scoff from behind us. I turned to see a woman dressed in a rather nice looking business suit corralling her kids away like they'd just encountered a streaker. Now I was ready to let it go, but Charlie can get very defensive of people she likes, so she ended up calling her out. "Something offend you, ma'am?" She seemed to ponder her next move before responding with that oh so stupid phrase. "You'r

    Text - Now I've met some pretty stupid people in my life. Even dated one. But never, ever have I heard of someone confusing Welsh for Arabic (which is what I assumed she meant). They're two very different languages from two very different cultures. The only similarities between them is how little I understand them. However, for someone to be so offended by someone speaking another language, they probably also didn't immerse themselves too much in other cultures. To her, the world probably began

    Text - "Oh my God," Karen said with righteous indignation. "Your accent is awful! Where did you even learn to speak English?" My stepmom held the most deadpan expression she could. "England." I swear I could smell the smoke coming from the flaming mess inside Karen's skulI. She looked at Charlie and I (a pair of shockingly Caucasian college brats) and then my stepmom (our even paler chaperone), took a moment to process what she was doing, and then walked away, dragging a group of embarrassed loo

    Text - My stepmom chuckled, muttered an offensive sounding Welsh phrase, and then helped us scan the map for the hobby shop. The rest of the day went well, and we had a funny story to tell my dad when we got back. To all my bigots out there who get offended when someone speaks another language: get over yourselves. The world doesn't revolve around you. To all my bilingual friends out there who speak their native tongues: good for you. It's important to keep your culture alive. And to Karen: next
