AITA: 'Peeping Tom kids': Teenager scolded by neighborhood Karen for watching a horror movie because snooping children stared into his living room

When you're in the privacy of your own home, it's generally pretty accepted that you're allowed to do whatever the eff you want to do and nobody really has a say in it. However, for decades, Karens have been superimposing themselves on the lives of everyone around them, forcing people to yield to their conveniences and being tyrannical jerks if there's any noncompliance. The neighborhood Karen of a teenaged boy recently got to witness the full force of a psycho Karen at work when he got judged, chastised, and yelled at in his home for the simple mistake of forgetting to close the curtains, but was he even in the wrong in the first place?

u/Kyeli_tells is a 15 year old who was home alone over Easter weekend and decided to watch a horror movie to kill some of his free time. Even though he's an avid horror movie fan, Kyeli chose to watch the horror classic, Fear Street, during the day with the blinds open because he's ironically afraid of the dark (probably from all the movies). However, his TV screen faces slightly out towards the street, so if a person walking by were to strain their wandering eyes into his living room, they would be able to snoop and see what's on his screen.

Apparently the day he decided to watch the movie, a Karen was letting her two young boys play in the streets outside Kyeli's family home. Unbeknownst to him, the kiddos were peeking through his bedroom window and catching glimpses of the horror movie he was watching, so the Karen flipped out. She knocked on his window and attempted to approach his front door, but Kyeli realized he had left the curtains open and closed them right away.

The next morning the Karen was back with a vengeance and on his doorstep, yelling at his mother and scolding them both for the negligence of watching a movie with the curtains open. No offense lady, but maybe you should be teaching your kids not to be so nosy instead of yelling at a teenager for watching a scary movie in his own home.
