There is nothing worse than having your morning commute disrupted by unruly entitlement. 

Picture this: you rolled out of bed at the last possible minute and managed to find the energy to make coffee before you needed to catch the train.

Finally, you're on the train and you're ready to calm yourself down and enjoy your morning podcast for the next 30 or so minutes. Then, some entitled stranger decides to make a scene for no legitimate reason besides letting out their frustrations at the universe. This kind of interruption can set the tone for a tumultuous workday. At a certain point, the only way to stop this kind of behavior from happening is by confronting this specific form of entitlement directly…

  • This individual was unable to stop himself from calling out this entitled lady on the train, who was giving a fellow commuter grief over who knows what…

    She had been loudly screaming empty phrases like “Do you know who I am?” You know, the kind of audacity Karens are wont to possess. Finally, the individual stepped in and asked the lady to tell everyone who she was. By putting her to the test, he ended up leaving her stunned and speechless.

    i asked the same question again: "who are you, and what important thing have you done?" without an answer, the women left, having a pale face. i then said sorry to the man for not minding my own bussiness but he said that it was ok and thanked me.

    Hanxa13 But why was she following him? And did she ever figure out who she was? Does she even exist if she can't say who she is or is she timid to wander the earth, a shade of a person. I need answers! It's so unresolved!!!
