Person Online Inquires “What Screams ‘I Am Entitled?’”, And 30 People Provide Their Answers
Many people like perks. No, not like that. Many people enjoy being entitled, or at least just feeling entitled. Even if they do not have any slightest reason to feel a bit better than others at something, they will just come up with a reason.
This happens especially often, for example, in the service sector, where people who for some reason feel "entitled" help themselves to much more than the boundaries of decency allow. Sometimes one look at a person is enough to understand that they are entitled as hell.
And sometimes it's not. So Reddit users shared their stories about how they had to interact with these categories of entitled people, and how to recognize them easily. The thread came out very popular with almost 2K upvotes and more than 2.3K various comments. Bored Panda has created an incredibly entitled curated list for you with a selection of the most interesting stories from this thread.
So feel free to scroll down, leave your comments - and just try to never be like the heroes of these "entitled-persons-and-where-to-find-them" stories.

People who are against abortion but then don’t give a s**t if the kid is taken care of.
JASH80 3 years ago
This. so many unwanted children living a sad life just because the mother had to give birth to them. If only the pro-lifers were as good at adopting them as they are at calling women who had abortions murderers.. being unwanted may not impact your body but it kills your soul.
Bexx 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 3 years ago (edited)
This!! Like if you were actually “pro-life” you’d be protesting the lack of accessible child-care, the continual defunding of children’s education, the system that leaves kids to float through an unstable foster care system their whole lives, helping support homeless children, worrying about their futures…..but nope, it’s all about the non-sentient fertilized clumps of cells in a woman’s womb for the first couple months of pregnancy, terminating that life is where the real injustice is.Makes a real difference in the world, good job guys /s 🙄 Nobody deserves to feel unwanted 🧡

I've noticed that self-proclaimed pro-life people don't seem to care about the 5,000 children who die from gunshots each year. Gun related injuries are now the leading cause of death for children in the US.
K Wit 3 years ago
Gun violence bc of domestic violence always the male partner or father is the leading cause of death for pregnant women in the US too but the same people that swear a women that has a life saving D & C is less important than their Ak47s. Not to mention no one forced anyone to give their organs to save a kids life but they want ti force a woman to give her mind and every single organ in her body to something she doesn't want. If it was really about kids they wouldn't be criminalizing or banning birth control. It's modern day slavery to force women to give their bodies away wo choice according to their made up beliefs that do not coincide w science or medical knowledge. Corpses have more autonomy you need consent to harvest their organs. Consent to sex is not consent to pregnancy. Womens life saving healthcare is needed physically and mentally.

The ones who are against abortions should be forced to pay the medical bills for the child and mother that was forced to keep them
K Wit 3 years ago
Yep but those same taxpayers that want to hold on to their machine guns won't pay the taxes to take care of living breathing children that are forced on women to birth. Even when men were drafted against their will they were given food shelter and medical care but women that are being forced to birth the next generation of slave labor for 7.25$ an hour aren't given any social safety net and they do not care if they die( the first two leading causes of death of pregnant women is gun violence and poor healthcare, the US has the highest rate of death during pregnancy than any other) at all but that's their plan. They want women to be desperate so they can charge them w felonies for getting abortions or birth control in another state and charge the doctors and family as co conspirators so they cannot vote. While still lining their pockets for doing what the corporations have paid them to do. There's no way scotus and the right wing party isn't being bribed by Walmart corporation.

The so-called “pro-lifers” should be made to watch footage from Romanian orphanages during the time Ceausescu was in control. That’s what really happens when a country bans both birth control and abortion, but couldn’t give a fat rat’s a*s what happens to the babies once they’re born.

They aren't pro-life. They're pro-birth. If they were pro-life they'd care enough about all of them to provide a safe life where they don't go hungry, live in decent housing and get a good education. A woman's medical decisions are hers and hers alone as discussed with her doctor. Anyone who disagrees with that premise, well, we get to know what your decision about a medical procedure is, and if we don't like it we'll get together and protest the he!! Out of it.

Now rapists will be emboldened too. They will get women pregnant and they will be forced to have their kid. They will have more of a right to womens bodies than a woman will. Rape is a way lesser crime than homicide. So now this tells women that are raped they are worth less than their rapists and their bodies can be used to make children that the rapist could get custody of to abuse also. This is all so f. U.

This! Pro life people are always very hypocritical. They don't want anyone to get an abortion but they sure as hell aren't going raise all of those unwanted kids or give a sh*t what happens to them. I cannot stand the ridiculous reasons people are pro life or the ridiculous things they say. I really have the "just use birth control" argument. Guess what no form of birth control other than just not having sex is 100% effective. You can do everything right and still get pregnant and its your choice whether you want to continue to be pregnant or not. It is so sad that it is 2022 and women's rights are being taken away instead of more being given to us. It is ridiculous that any of this is even a discussion at this point. Its ridiculous that women's rights need to be "given" to us. We live in such a messed up reality, it is genuinely depressing.

My city has one of the largest naval districts in the country so there's plenty of military wives. Two stories pop into my head. One lady once tried to make me vacate a park bench, when I told her no she said her her husband was a navy Sargeant. I gave her a blank stare and said "cool, and?" After me pointing to other benches she could sit and ignoring her, she threatened to call the cops because she knew her rights and her husband was out there defending the country, so she was entitled to sit where she chose to. Another time a disabled neighbor got up in the middle of the night to help his toddler. The kid was crying, he had to walk with crutches, so there was some noise. Another neighbor went to his door, punched him in the face, yelled a lot saying he was whatever navy title and needed his rest. However, the first guy's wife was his superior, heard everything and knew very well who he was later at base. My mom tutored one of their kids, he told us everything.

I absolutely, honestly am not trying to make this one of those “America sucks” comments in any, any way, but I HAVE to ask: would this as a matter of fact BE an american thing? Because this is an absolute non-thing where I live. The term “military spouse” would never be uttered here, if it ever existed it was long before I was ever born. At most your friends will be aware that you’re married to a military employee - if they’re close friends they might even know what specific job the person in question has in the military, and that’s the absolute and total extent of it. Calling oneself “military spouse” would be like calling yourself a “baker spouse” or a “teacher spouse”. I’ve gotten the impression that being in the military has some sort of status in the US, is that correct or am I totally misinterpreting things?
Tenacious Squirrel 3 years ago
Generally salutes and ranks are only relevant inside the job. The special treatment in society for simply being part of the military I think only exists in some countries (USA for example) but I think this post is referring to that. The military wives and their serving husbands might have their eyes opened a bit going to countries where the husband’s job is largely ignored. Btw I’m aware how sexist and dated the wives/husbands references are but I’m echoing the post itself.

Cold Contagious 3 years ago
My ex-husband wouldn't really make big messes at restaurants but every single movie theater, he'd leave everything behind and didn't care if he kicked over the popcorn in the floor or left his candy wrappers there. It made me disgusted. I'd tell him every time to get his stuff and he'd always say that someone gets paid to clean it. I would always have my hands full of my things and the children's things to pick up his too. I hardly ever went to a movie with him because I just didn't like his attitude when going there. He'd also litter all the time. He did more things that were more covert, so he wouldn't be confronted by anyone, besides me. I didn't nag him, there was no point, I picked up what I could and went on. It got old pretty fast.

For instance, when asked to unload the dishwasher, I might leave some things off to the side because I don't know where they go. However, I'll then ask for help as to where they're supposed to go instead of just sitting there thinking this is someone else's problem.

Once a lady told me “I will have your job!” (I was a server who forgot her ketchup or something) and I thought the language was interesting - she was a very entitled lady, and even the way she said “I will have your job” instead of “you’ll be fired for this” etc made it really clear how her mind works. (I wasn’t fired, she was brushed off by my manager lol it’s just ketchup).

We don't normally make it much further than the first half of that before shame kicks in thankfully.

Incessant whining over shared inconveniences. For example, person goes to the DMV to find a 90 minute wait. Everyone else that arrived around the same time as them is also having to wait 90 minutes. But this person just. Won’t. Shut. Up about it. Like dude, we get it. It sucks. Literally no one is enjoying this experience. You’re not entitled to any faster service than anyone else, and bitching about it isn’t going to change that.

I'm disabled and the DMV has a special window for the disabled so they can sit or be in their wheelchair or whatever. I had a guy yell that it wasn't fair that disabled people got through the line faster and didn't have to stand in line (we are allowed to go straight in and they find seats if none are available). We still have to wait our turn, they are just trying to make it easier for us. Yes, I don't have to wait as long as you, but I wish I was able to stand in line and walk without a cane,and be normal. Their wait that day was 40 minutes. Mine was 25. I sat in a chair that caused me pain just to renew my disabled car tags. Guy got so belligerent that they made him leave. All that bitching only made hurt my feelings, but what they did to him was awesome

Funny you used DMV for an example since the majority of the wait time at most DMV's are created by staff that just wander around to "look" busy. There is no reason why 95% of the business at DMV can't be handled within 15 minutes provided no one laid out. Our local DMV is a prime example, it's run by a bunch of self entitled jerks that think they can do as they please. Even the State Police have set a few of them straight on occasion. I usually go to the DMV in one of the towns 30 miles away because even with the drive time, I'm there, done and back home faster than dealing with the local idiots.

They won’t expose their true colors easily, unless you willfully feed their ego just right enough to make them drop their guard and do something foolish, then point out the egotistical beliefs behind their actions and words. They’ll try to say that you’re the manipulative one (maybe, maybe not), but you can always stand firm on what you exposed, pretend not to be affected by their accusation, and repeatedly talk over the top of them about how immature they’re behaving at trying to deflect the attention off their own bad behavior.

This 3 years ago
Islam also supports that idea. In Al kafirun (A Quran chapter) it says "Say, "O disbelievers, I do not worship what you worship. Nor are you worshippers of what I worship. Nor will I be a worshipper of what you worship. Nor will you be worshippers of what I worship. For you is your religion and to me is mine." That means that Muslims believe that people can have different beliefs but they will respectfully say I don't believe in what you worship and I never will (to stop being forcefully told info or etc) and that they probably won't either. But it is respectfully saying that we have our own ways and we can co-exist. "Disbelievers" is the term for people who do not believe in Islam. There is also hadeeth (words of the Prophet Muhammad) that say to treat disbelievers with respect and kindness. Muslims are advised to share Islam if asked but forbidden from forcing others onto it. That'd make Muslims aggressors and it's a common theme in Islam to turn away from anger/cruelty.

Muslim men: if you witness anyone doing this to a sister, make 100% sure they leave on a gurney. I am saying that Muslims should neither tolerate assault on their own persons, nor tolerate assault on others in their presence. Assault is a moral crime; and to allow assault to proceed unchecked is also a moral crime, and taking no action while witnessing and allowing assault to take place is itself a serious injury to society. It is absurd and contemptible to call self-defense "hateful", and to characterize defense of another as a "hateful" act is even worse.

The way it goes in my Church (I'm a Christian) is that we're supposed to share God with people. If they take it, they take it. If they don't, you move on. It's that simple. There's a difference between sharing your religion and forcing it and this generation really needs to learn it. I get it. In a lot of religions, it is a part of that religion to share it with others. But share. Don't force. Two different things.

I'm a gas station worker and when people don't say please or thank you, when they're on the phone(mostly when they're VERY loud). When they walk in, dont even look at you, practically throw the money at you and say "20 on pump 5" and walk out.
OH! And when there's only one person there, we have to close our store for lunch. We have a very polite worded sign on the door. I'll be walking with my food to the back and they try and bang on the door, put their arms up like "what the f**k?? You're not going to serve me??"
And there's literally another gas station kitty corner to us.
Edit to clarify: where I'm from(Sacramento, California) you pay at the pump with card and pump gas yourself. I'm not stopping most people from getting gas by taking my lunch(ONLY thing that stops people from getting gas is if they're paying with cash, but most people don't. There's no discount at my store by paying with cash rather than card)
The only thing they can't get is cigarettes, beer and snacks. But as I stated, there is another gas station right across the street.

But teaching your children about common courtesy, manners, and how to act around other people is as old as time—-and valuable. Antisocial kids become antisocial adults.

I can testify that it’s true! I’ve got three abusive brothers, one irresponsible sister, and I struggle with work and boundaries, even though my evil biological mother at least taught me some manners. And God taught me kindness. The currently married parents were abusive whenever something happened that reminded them they weren’t entitled to be neglectful. They just let us be wild animals, even enforcing it, and never so much as imparted a moment of wisdom to us. At least I can choose to improve a little bit each day, but I got a lot of abuse for insisting that my parents act like parents. And they maliciously kept me from trying to fill that role as an older sister. Manipulating us so we couldn’t even get along. It threatened their egos when anyone tried to act like an adult. Didn’t want kids. We hated each other, and blaming me was more convenient than being parents. Now I’m the only adult from that family. And I’m not the best at it, but I’m trying. It was Lord of the Flies back then.

Loading the dishwasher etc. Then they explained that he had jobs to do also. Hang up his clothes, put them in the laundry basket when they're dirty, make his bed, pick up his toys. So, when they tell him they are going to take him swimming later if they have to tell him a couple of times he needs to do his job ie pick up his toys before they go, if he doesn't do his job then they'll have to do it. If they have to take up their time to do his job, that means they won't have time left to take him swimming. He tested it only a few times. Thereafter, he did his jobs.

I went to private school for all of high school. It was even further divided by wealth because it was an American school in a foreign country, so most of the kids from there were very wealthy, did coke on Tuesday nights, and would buy their way into Harvard. The rest of the kids were pretty much all from military families who had the price of education covered. I used to take the city bus home from school (it was out in the suburbs). One day this mom in her shiny convertible car and 200 dollar jeans parks her car where it is completely blocking the road and goes to pick up her kid. When the bus drives up, it can’t get by. Bus driver honks for a couple minutes, but the mom is no where in sight. When she finally comes out, she’s not even bothered by the fact that she’s been blocking traffic for 10 minutes. She just takes her sweet time getting in her car with her kid and finally drives off.

They’ve sadly moved from milk to juice to just putting beer in the sippy cup. I’m not sure if I know what an grownup is anymore, other than a rotten overgrown kid on a tyrannical ego trip, because they can bully small children and get away with it. Something I never want to be. The reason I don’t like most kids are the reasons I don’t like most adults: Foolishness, inauthenticity, bullying, and entitlement. Immaturity in a nutshell. It’s not about age, but laying down the ego. Eventually, people show who they are. They generally have to be towards the beginning or end of their life, where the true colors come out in an understated spectacle, because beauty and cunning cannot be used as a mask anymore. Does this person value wisdom or ego? Selfish or selfless? Children lose their innocence, adolescents and adults their authenticity, and the old their excuses and disguises over what they’ve become. It’s the biggest character arc you will see in this life.

When someone has to suffer a mild inconvenience and they throw a totally disproportionate tantrum about it.
Leodavinci 3 years ago
Regardless of age, humans are emotional creatures. There's an old saying that comes to mind in such situations. Something about... "the straw that broke the camel's back". No one knows what someone else's day has been like up to that point.

Those kinds of people usually have double standards as a parent. The kid can’t even put up a civil and polite complaint, and yet has to hear the parent acting like a fricken monster in the supermarket. It’s really horrifying, when you realize your parents have all the power of a tyrant, and the accountability of a baby. I’m surprised I managed to mature as much as I did, given the utter lack of nurture. I only had my mistakes, and God’s Grace to guide me.

“Oh you can’t afford that, but it’s only like *high price*?”
HeatherDPanda 3 years ago
This!! They way people assume what one can or can't afford based on their looks, clothes, race, or ethnicity! Drives me insane!
Scott Crowell 3 years ago
I don't think it's fair that I can't afford a private jet or a Lamborghini because of the high price.

Sales clerks in a certain department store in Dallas nicknamed Demon Markups completely ignored my friend and I at every counter because we didn't look "rich enough" to afford to shop there. How would they know that? Maybe we're gazillionaires who decided to dress down today. And they probably had no idea who we were😉

I went shopping for a box spring once.. walked around the furniture store and not one sales person came up to me or responded when I asked for help. I went to customer service, and finally found a manager. I had to*tell* the manager to please help me because he was just going to find a sales person who had already ignored me. Another manager saw me instead and she came right away and sold me a box spring. The total sale took 5 minutes. I chose one, paid for it, and left (pick up was set for the date I was moving so I could just load it into my U-Haul).

People that think they’re the prize when dating but never consider what the other person wants from a relationship.
I don’t care how many followers you have. How does that make you worth dating?
Raccoon panda 3 years ago
If you actually were a prize, you’d be more busy being that person than convincing yourself you’re that person. You’d be too selfless to care, not so selfish that’s all you care about.
#37
People who make huge assumptions about the intent of others. They always think other people are thinking about them way more than they actually do.
Kathryn Baylis 3 years ago
And they never realize what they’re saying that someone else is thinking or doing is really just themselves projecting their own issues onto others.
Miss Frankfurter 3 years ago
Newsflash! Other people are probably thinking about themselves, just like you are when you assume you're important enough that they even notice you.

Getting angy at waiters if your food "takes too long"
Vasana Phong 3 years ago
Worked at primary doctors office before, the front desk always gets yelled at because their doctor is running late, but when they head back they are sweet as pie to them
Kathryn Baylis 3 years ago
Ah yes. Getting angry at the lower level employe who has zero control over the situation, then being sweet as pie to the upper level person who is the actual cause of the problem. Yeah. You can get away with yelling at “the help”, just never ever yell at their total f**k up of an employer.

Someone has never received anything other than a hot meal. The issue usually isn't with the prep time time. It's that the food gets to you and isn't hot. That's on the wait person and not the cook.

"The customer is always right"
Ozymandias73 3 years ago
That slogan died a loooooooooong time ago yet it's still thought to be gospel by inconvenienced customers
Freya the Wanderer 3 years ago
This attitude has probably contributed to the rise of "Karens." Customers CAN be wrong, and then your job is to help them save face
Leodavinci 3 years ago
Like so many things... it depends. I worked for a company that did not deal with the general public. It was business to business. In the lunch room there was one of those little, triangular shaped, desktop plaques. On side 1 it said "The customer is always right. When the customer is wrong, see side 2". On side 2, it said "See side 1". In a B-to-B situation, if your business is spread out over many clients, you can likely afford to to "fire" an unhappy client who you lose money catering to. In the consumer space, a happy customer tells 2 to 4 other people how great you are... while an unhappy customer gripes to a dozen or more people how lousy your business is.
Maria Belle 3 years ago
This is so misquoted! The full quote is: "The customer is always right in matters of taste." Therefore, If I believe I look fabulous in Leopard print and zebra stripes, who are you to tell me I'm in the wrong? If I like tomato ketchup on my steak, who are you to argue? It does NOT mean that because I want it, exactly as I want it, I should have it, when I want it, and how I want it!

When Mitt Romney was debating Obama, he said: "If a kid needs money to start a business they can always borrow it from their parents
Agron54 3 years ago
I don’t think it’s entitled if someone starting a business does this. It’s another thing to assume that everyone can.
Nimues Child 3 years ago
That was the problem with Mitt. He used to be governor of my state. It's good to see that he's grown into a statesman, but he was out-of-touch entitled when he was here.

He even specified that a child might have to borrow $20,000 from their parents to start a business. As if all, or even most, parents have $20,000 to loan their children.
Kusotare 3 years ago
There's nothing wrong with borrowing money from a parent. It's entitled to think everybody has that option.

Hitting the back of someone’s car and then blaming it on them
Scott Crowell 3 years ago
It totally their fault. If they hadn't parked there in the first place then none of this would've happened.
Chinmayee Kalghatgi 3 years ago
Depending on the situation it’s either the one who crashed is at fault or it’s the person who got hit
JASH80 3 years ago
in my country the car rear-ending is always at fault - you have to drive in a way that you can react to the car in front of you stopping abruptly for whatever reason.

because they don't want people to see them in a bad way and because they suck

"This establishment just lost a faithful customer today"

Usually it’s actually some entitled white lazy who thinks that she should get her entire bill chomped because her husband’s French fries were too hot, or whatever else she can desperately try to get compensated because she is a sad little woman

Not that faithful then are they? Place is probably better off without them.

People who always complain and have a problem with the littlest thing.
Nathaniel 3 years ago
I do not think that you understand the pain and suffering I suffered when you refused my coupon. I was left shaken and upset. My family rushed to console me when I got home. I do not think you understand what refusing that 35p off a can of beans can do to a person. I will be seeing your manager about this.

And it gets worse when the manager doesn't back up their employee who was doing what's expected.

Also why didn't you open a register just for me. I mean the real housewives of the ATL are coming on and I need to know who is sleeping with who and why they got lipo again. I mean really people. The pain you have cause me is unbearable.

I have zero respect for chronic crybabies. You think you have problems? Lots of people have worse problems than you do

I had this coworker that is a single mom living at home, complained about having to do laundry, i asked her, “ did you have to drag your laundry to the laundry mat too?” She said no, it’s in my basement, she completely understood at that point that she should‘not complain

Doctors who act like the pain is all in your head. Or you have a reaction to their treatment that they've "never heard of before". Or behave as if getting sick is somehow your fault.
RandomFrog 3 years ago
Ok I would just like to add to this list: phone etiquette. If someone’s showing you something, don’t take their phone unless they say you can hold it. Also, my mom taught me it’s rude to look at someone’s phone if they don’t invite me to, so obvs it would be that way for my little bro right? Nope! If I’m doing something like texting or anything if he wants to look and I say no he gets mad at me and my parents tell him he’s fine to watch, but I can’t look at their phone, no sir! Uhgggg

for me it's people that donate to something, then expect special treatment for it. You DONATED. If you want special services, you PAY for them.
