One thing remains true: the Karens of this world will always be lurking around, ready to pounce as soon as they feel entitled to do so.

On one level, how could you not envy the complete lack of a filter and the audacity to start drama without any fear of consequences? But of course, on another level, who wants to carry that much negativity around with them at all times? This week, we have compiled a brand new collection of amusing Karens pulling the same old tricks. We've got the classic Karen who parked her car in the wrong space, a fast-food Karen customer who threw a temper tantrum at a child, and even a Redditor who didn't realize she was a Karen until folks in the comments section gave her a reality check.

Keep scrolling below for the top Karens of the week. For more compilations like this, take a look at this list of employees who got petty with their entitled customers.

    McDonalds Karen yells at my kid Karen I'm still a little shaken rattled and rolled about this but i just experienced a Karen moment and I'm angry at him but also angry that I didn't defend my kid harder.

    My kid is 9, and like all 9 year olds he has a lot of energy which he usually tempers in public because he also has extreme social anxiety to the point where we have him in therapy for it.

    He's generally a well behaved little dude he says please and thank you, apologizes unprompted when he - makes mistakes, takes his hat off at the dinner table before being asked, corrects people politely when they use offensive language, does what hes asked with little complaint. Heart of a lion, demeanour of a lamb. I can count

    on one hand the amount of times I've had to discipline him in the last few years because he's just not a problematic kid. So my dad and I took him to mcdonalds for a quick lunch and since he has never once changed his order we told him to go grab a seat on the long benches by the window. I went to

    grab napkins and ketchup while my dad ordered and when I sat down, my son immediately said "mom can we please go eat in the car I don't want to be here anymore". Took a minute of prompting before he admitted that he'd been sort of rocking in his seat bc he was nervous sitting alone (its

    something the therapist has recommended we do as it's a smal discomfort and helps him get more comfortable being independent - the sitting alone not the rocking) and I guess the bumping annoyed the elderly couple at the next table so the man turned to him and yelled at him to out" and the woman "cut it the f

    then hissed "seriously stop it". I asked "did he yell or did he just say it kind of loudly?" And he said no, he definitely yelled and then slapped his hand on the table. Yall, he wasn't even at the table for more than two minutes tops.

    I told him we wouldn't be leaving but that I doubted they'd say anything else since I was there so he was safe. When my dad sat down between him and the couple he eased up enough to eat in complete silence and the couple looked mildly uncomfortable because it was obvious my son had said something, but I could tell he was still shaken. I chose not to confront the couple because I didn't want to stoop to their level but then. BUT THEN.

    They finished their coffees which let's be honest we all know they'd been camping with since 10am and the man walked up behind me, jabbed me in the shoulder and said "sorry but he was bumping the bench and it was really annoying" and I was so stunned the only thing I could think to say was "okay well maybe don't yell at my kid".

    What I wanted to say was "yell at my kid again and it'll be the last words you utter". My dad said "was that guy serious?" And I told him what had happened and I had to stop him from getting up and throwing hands with Methuselah because jail doesn't have a seniors menu.

    Yes, I get that it was probably annoying, but there were other options. A) say to him politely "hey could you please stop it's disruptive" which he absolutely would have done. and he even would have apologized because that's who he is as a person or b) wait til I sat down A MINUTE LATER and said "Hi excuse me could you please ask your son to stop that?"

    Which it wouldn't have even come to because he was simply antsy waiting for us to sit down while he was alone and vulnerable in an open concept area full of people.

    Anyway, f you mcdonalds Karens I hope you felt super powerful and smug yelling at someone a tenth of your age and half your size with an order of magnitude more social grace.

    Not sure if they were a Karen or not need some help deciding Essentially I was walking out of the shop and saw a child's doing something silly, I paid no mind to it until the woman, who (I believe) was the child's mother, shouted at the child (I understand that she was angry but no real need to shout)

    I told the woman "not to tell you how to parent, but there must be a better way to discipline your child than shouting" I have bad experience with being screamed at by my mother in my childhood, as a response she said "mind your own business, jog on" and done a walking finger motion

    Stupid Karen I work with got her report backfired on her So, I'm an AM and I had a pa who I close with, but I found out the hard way that she does not like being told what to do or asked any questions, because the one time I did this she started treating me differently. Mind you I was very confused and said sorry to her even though I did nothing and all she did was roll her eyes.

    Sigh.. oh well I moved along because all I needed to do was make sure she was doing the right things (she wasn't) which caused me to ask her more questions, which then caused her to report me for harassment stating I said something about her age and her ra

    Karen didn't know that other people have heard her talk about other people, give others bad attitude for the same reason she did to me, and people. just don't like her. So long story short she got a warning and write up for insubordination and retaliation both for lying on an AM after it was proven she was in the wrong. So I say proudly F you, you stupid old bitter Karen b 1. Edit: AM means Area Manager and PA mean process assistant.
