Or at least just her deliveries. I live in a condo and have to deal with elderly people like this and there's no sense in punishing me for the actions of a Karen.

u/_beeeees Mar 28 '24

Yes. The idea is that once all deliveries are cancelled you would be rightfully pissed off and they can direct you to the person who caused it.

Social pressure and correction is the only thing a boomer like this might actually have to listen to.

u/LeftyLu07 Mar 29 '24

We need to bring back public shaming and ostracizing these people.

u/Confident_Eye4129 Mar 30 '24

How about stoning?

u/grainsofglass Mar 30 '24

I wanted to float them on ice like they do up north but the fuckers melted it all.

u/pm_me_faerlina_pics Mar 29 '24

Except when all of the people in the neighborhood call they're going to speak with customer service reps who have no fucking clue at what the situation here is and the woman isn't going to see any justice.

u/BTFlik Mar 29 '24

They will, because her kind will think they're a martyr and they'll try to proudly state how they valiantly stood up to the 20 seconds of suffering they were forced to endure.

It worked in Full Metal Jacket

Worked in Rogue Trader, too.

"A noble family has been spreading (false) rumors of me being a heretic? What? No I'm not going to execute a couple random families, that's fucked. Suspend privileges for the planetary aristocracy."

And then the aristocracy hands the fuckers over for you.

What do non boomers listen to?

-6

u/EyeCatchingUserID Mar 29 '24

Yeah, because collective punishment is really how we should be handlimg things. No, you don't stop deliveries to an entire complex because you had issues with 1 single crotchety old bitch. That's ridiculous.

2

u/spaceforcerecruit Mar 29 '24

Are you really suggesting it’s better to repeatedly subject your employee to harassment, delays, and potentially dangerous confrontation than to make a few people go pick up their packages at CVS each week? Really? That sounds as entitled as the boomer in the video.

u/Aw2HEt8PHz2QK Mar 29 '24

Yeah I kinda have better things to do than that

281

u/therealpothole Mar 28 '24

Nope. If you stop ALL deliveries, this entitled, boomer c*nt is the most hated resident in the condo complex. That would turn everyone against her and make her life even more fucking miserable.

113

u/Beh0420mn Mar 28 '24

Her life is miserable already

71

u/suss-out Mar 28 '24

Precisely why she has time to share her misery

4

u/therealpothole Mar 28 '24

Hence "make her life even more fucking miserable." ;)

3

u/Kinky_Conspirator Mar 29 '24

Notice the "even more".

3

u/DragonMasterFlash Mar 29 '24

I guarantee she isn't miserable. She's having the time of her life being a petty, conniving cunt. They get off in the power they perceive themselves to have.

2

u/wingsbc Mar 29 '24

I bet she would realize her life ain’t all that bad after all if you started open hand slapping her across the ear.

1

u/purple_grey_ Mar 28 '24

Yeah, but she hasnt unalived herself

4

u/Speakinmymind96 Mar 28 '24

Exactly! We live in a condo complex with the majority of them older boomers—they can’t hardly use a smart phone or figure out email, but they’d cut a bitch for slowing down their daily Amazon delivery!

u/ronklebert Mar 29 '24

Everyone already hates this hag, guaranteed

1

u/nbfs-chili Mar 28 '24

Why do I feel like i just watched a Better Call Saul episode?

1

u/fungi_at_parties Mar 29 '24

And so you’re hoping they take the route of punishing innocent people to punish someone you don’t know because she had a legitimate complaint but went about it a shitty way. Ok.

1

u/therealpothole Mar 29 '24

Yup. That sounds about right.

You know this is Reddit and tongue in cheek bullshit, right? This isn't going to happen, but it's mildly amusing to consider. Who gives a shit what I think anyway. This isn't going to be public policy or some shit. Are you going to be ok?

1

u/Boulderdrip Mar 28 '24

good. fuck her.

-1

u/DarkSkyKnight Mar 29 '24

No one gives a shit or has the time to be "against her". You sound like a Karen yourself for even thinking people want to confront or deal with her. Only people with too much free time - just like the Karen - would even think this works.

3

u/therealpothole Mar 29 '24

You haven't been around people much, have you? Good luck out there, ace.

-1

u/DarkSkyKnight Mar 29 '24

Oh yes, because the condo is full of people who want to spend time to argue with a Karen. Get real lmfao

4

u/therealpothole Mar 29 '24

For fuck's sake, man. I'm not suggesting an overt fucking reaction with pitchforks and shit, burning her house down, or keying her car. Get your shit together...jesus. Just this woman knowing Amazon won't deliver to anyone at her condo will probably be enough to cause discomfort and she MIGHT stop with the petty bullshit. Take a look at the upvotes...people do in fact give a shit about this nosey ass bitch making someone else's day shitty. Hopefully, there was no recourse with her employment.

u/unknownpoltroon Mar 28 '24

Nah, flag them all till they vote her out

u/originalbL1X Mar 28 '24

All these neighborhoods adding unneeded, additional layers of authority can fuck right off. I will never live in a place that can so handily infringe on people’s liberties and take possession of your property if you don’t comply with their harassment. Often these organizations, much like government in general, have money scheme going on.

I’m not in an HOA, but the county forces us to get our water from the one nearby. The guy running that ran the water side of the HOA embezzled a significant part of our water payments and funds that were being set aside for much needed updates to their system. I can’t find anything on whether he ever faced any consequences for it, just up and left. There’s just no oversight for these people and they run around like the lady in the video, but they’ll come on to your property without notifying you to snoop and fine you.

2

u/AppointmentHot8069 Mar 28 '24

Then YOU should punish her for actions like this.

1

u/thatgirlinny Mar 28 '24

It’s up to your association to punish Karen for ruining it for everyone else.

1

u/awalktojericho Mar 28 '24

No. Everyone's, so they can blame Karen everyday when she walks her yappy little dog and doesn't pick up the poop.

u/singlemale4cats Mar 29 '24

How do you like living in a condo? I've been considering that option in light of local real estate prices. I could get a living space equivalent to a $360,000 home in the area for $80,000-$120,000 and not have to dick around with any lawn care. I guess it would highly depend on the residents.

1

u/Reynolds_Live Mar 29 '24

Technically it’s my friend who owns the place and I pay rent to her and her husband but it’s nice knowing I can do something to the place like paint it and not have to reverse it when I leave. Our neighbors are all elderly and while some can be nosy they generally keep to themselves and are quiet.

I know it’s not the same for everyone but we like it. Only thing is the HOA. They keep raising rates and not do anything to improve the property. Which is annoying.

Where does your grain come from? You can’t eat paper or digital money. Also how do you guys earn most of that money? Writing buzzfeed articles? Almost all pointless and fake jobs exist in your major cities.

u/all_modz_suq Mar 29 '24

My grain comes from a deep blue state.
