As a Muslim, not knowing that bacon is pork is like being too stupid to breathe
Wait a minute. You mean that you are supposed to breath in and then breath out? And then repeat?
in some place or country they do serve halal bacon which use beef, chicken, or turkey meat but this one is just wrong because she didn't listen to the server's info.
I had a boss years ago (I was her personal assistant) who was reform Jew. (Sweetest lady, stereotypical Jewish grandma.) I lived (and still do) in San Antonio, TX, so around the holidays, tamales are everything. The office building we were in hosted a big Christmas buffet the Friday before Christmas and she insisted (in spite of the fact I was trying very hard to stay on a diet, I mentioned she was a stereotypical Jewish grandma, right) I go get something. I asked her if I should bring her back anything. She responded, "a couple pork tamales. I've tried all the others, but there is nothing like a hot and greasy pork tamale." I about choked. I later learned a lot of Reform Jews don't keep kosher.
Yea but not eating certain foods because a magic book told you so is even dumber.
@@avesatanaehey man, if people aren’t actively insulting you for not being religious, don’t insult people for being religious. This was wholly unnecessary and really really rude, especially since your pfp comes from the Satanic Temple with one of their tenets being explicitly “One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.” and “The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.”. Do better bro
The last OP taught that Karen two VALUABLE life lessons lmfaoo
1. Bacon comes from pigs
2. Don't bite the hand that feeds you
Agreed. Just not 100% While most bacon sold is pork bacon, you can also get bacon that comes from other animals. I've actually had duck bacon before, which to me tasted pretty much like regular bacon 😅, which was still good, but nothing special. Plus most Jewish delis sell beef bacon, which is quite delicious also, but to me just tastes like pastrami. And of course there's also turkey bacon. My point being bacon is not always pork. But most people assume you mean pork when you ask for bacon, unless stated otherwise.
But in this case the Karen got exactly what she asked for. The picture on social media was just the icing on the amazing cake known as KARMA.
Also, I know there's a chance no one will read this, but on the off chance that anyone does. Thank you for taking the time to read this and hope you're having an amazing day/night and I wish you the best moving forward. Take care. 😊
@@matthewenfinger766 Unless it is stated to be some other type of bacon, it is always pork. At least in the US.
@@_Fizel_ Even in the story, it was explicitly stated to be pork
@@SuperPurplePancakes Yes I know. I was just telling that person that. I only ever see pork bacon labeled as just bacon, anything else is usually labeled as such (like turkey bacon). They were commenting how their are other 'bacons'.
@@_Fizel_Lol yes I agree with you, I was just adding that even if the woman in the story thought the same as that other commenter (that bacon isn't pork by default) she was told explicitly by the waitress that theirs was and she still chose to believe otherwise
"What about bacon... Ham... Pork chops?"
Dad, those all come from the same animal.
"Right Lisa, one Magical Animal"
Wait until they learn about sausage.
@@NyghtkingHead cheese
Also sounds like Goku from dbz abridged
Story 1: Man, narcissists that wear their spouse's rank are insufferable as heck, not to mention they could cost said spouse their rank. Glad Karen was divorced
Ngl I doubt she has npd lmao. Just seems like a case of a not so intelligent entitled person. If it’s npd, then every single military wife has npd (which is incredibly unlikely and impossible).
This really should be made an offense on par with impersonating an officer.
This was an entitled woman, not a woman with a personality distorter.
My issue is why did this Karen even need to see the Sargent? I’m glad both he and her now ex put her in her place because she was beyond disrespectful.
I can't stand spouses like this!! Like lady, you're not serving, your spouse is!! Also, she could seriously get her military spouse in trouble. They could get paperwork, demoted, or even kicked out!!
Story 1: As the son of a military man...this is 100% true ANYTING we do, especially on base can impact our serving family member's carreer! Wearing your family memeber's rank like that is a huge no-no!!
well, the "2nd LT" thing was incorrect, definitely wasn't an LT
@@Manorbis why? she very likely could have been a 2LT, esp since she just finished college.
@@Manorbis - 2Lt, or O-1, is the ENTRY LEVEL commissioned officer RANK in. KNOW your ranks before you start saying someone isnt that ranks. ANYONE with a 4 year degree behind them can go for such as long as they are a US Citizen and arent a convicted felon.
The successful completion of the four-year Army ROTC program at The Citadel can lead to a commission in the United States Army as a US Army 2nd Lieutenant . This can be for either full-time service on Active Duty or part-time service with the National Guard or Army Reserve. To qualify for commissioning the Cadet must complete all the below criteria:
The completion of a four-year baccalaureate degree
Complete the ROTC Basic Course and Advance Course through Military Science Class and Military Science Training Lab, or authorized credit
Completion of the ROTC Advance Camp
Cadets must pass the US Army fitness test each semester and be in accordance with the Army’s height and weight standards
Participation in physical fitness training two days a week
Attend the 4-day ROTC Field Training Exercise (FTX) at Fort Jackson each semester
Must be medically qualified for military service from the Department of Defense
Must be a US Citizen
Must be at least 17 years old at the time of start and under 31 years of age at the time of completion
Must maintain full-time enrollment at The Citadel, with a minimum of 12-credit hours in person
No felonies or domestic assault convictions
Isn't there a name for that -- stolen vaolor or something?
@@sourisvoleur4854 Stolen valor applies when somebody impersonating a soldier or a veteran tries to gain money or benefit meant for aformentioned groups. Karens trying to ride their spouses rank are usually known as dependas or depentapotamuses.
> Friend just excused herself and moved away from the photo
And not a single light bulb went on in Karen's head.
If she didn't know that bacon was made from pigs, the light bulb was pretty burned out at that point.
She’s giving Kevin vibes like bro how
That's because the lady didn't have so much as a candle wick to light, much less a light bulb.
CL likely just thought more spotlight for her
@@tibbynibbyI thought Kevin was simply a male Karen
Karen's friend in the last story 100% knew what the fallout of that picture was going to be 😂
Honestly it amazes me though the number of people across the world that don't realize that bacon is pork.
They even made a joke about it on the Simpsons 30 years ago, where Homer basically thinks it comes from a magical animal.
I really want to know how she grew up Muslim and didn't know you can't eat bacon.
That's like the FIRST THING anyone talks about on social media when it's brought up, aside from ... stuff not fit for TOS.
Like I remember hearing a person say "why does this say turkey bacon? What's the difference?" I had to walk away.
Wait until they find out what Hotdogs are made with!
Ah, it reminds me of the story I was told by a history professor. There used to be (and still are) people born so priviliged and blinkered they did not know the meat served to them came from once living animals. Because the words for the meats (venison from deer, pork from pigs, beef from cows, etc) were different, they could not connect the meal to the animal. Granted, these were mostly the kinds of priviliged rich people who did not, themselves, hunt for sport.
Colonel: "WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?!"
Karen: "I may have made a huge mistake."
Thinking? If Karens were capable of that, they wouldn't be Karens.
@@DarkEinherjar Yeah, and their vocabulary mostly consist of "manager", "demand", "deserve", "disgusting," etc.
@@DarkEinherjarOh, they think all right, but never beyond the moment. They're always consumed with their immediate gratification, being “right” and getting their way. Therefore, they never think about the big picture or how their actions could have long-lasting consequences.
Karen’s Husband: “I made a bigger one. Here’s my lawyer’s info.”
He punched a hole through her confidence like All for One punching a hole through All Might. Now she got the ass-chewing she should have gotten years back, she probably got another one from her husband, got divorced, and probably curses the day she walked in all smug.
wow…that last story. The fact she didn’t know PORK IS BACON is hilarious. I mean…at least the friend had some courtesy and was apologetic. I know there’s turkey bacon but if that wasn’t offered, ok. But OP’s malicious compliance was hilarious (karma was swift~)
As a commodity, pork belly.
I had one gentleman who didn't know that salami was made from pork. To be fair, he wasn't a native speaker, and I also didn't know his faith until he mentioned it in passing and I felt gut-punched. But the poor guy was absolutely horrified that the meat he absolutely loved from the deli was, in fact, forbidden by his religion. At least his "sin" was pure accident, not entitled snobbery. I don't know what he had to do to cleanse any taint from the unclean meat though.
@@Silverserri There are beef and kosher salamis. They aren’t as common, but are there. For the most part common salamis are made with pork.
Just don’t buy beef bacon, it is just a poor grade of pastrami at a price higher than a good grade of pastrami. Actually, I haven’t seen it sold for years.
I saw a Commander who's wife got him busted down to 2nd lieutenant after she went on a drunken joyride on base. She caused about $50,000 of damages when she took out a guard shack and rammed into a aircraft tow vehicle. She was fleeing from base security, and was screaming threats of how her husband would court martial them when they arrested her. When the base command court martial'd him his career was destroyed. He resigned his commission and divorced her, but he got custody of their two sons.
hot DAMN i feel bad for that dude, a divorce well deserved on her part
@HyperShadow991 nah there were signs before of that woman being bad for his career, he didn't act until too late. That's on him. Sorta like how I wished my dad divorced my mother sooner before she turned into an abusive person
I was a young E-3 in a Pediatric Clinic. A pilot's wife came late for an appointment and immediately had an attitude, not letting me explain that we would walk her child in, but it would take a little bit. She was very loud and demanding.
The doctor her child was seeing called me, said he would see them. I was miffed, but continued professionally.
About an hour later her husband came in and apologized to me. The doctor was the hospital commander and never let his staff get abused.
This is a big oversimplification of it, but in the US military, servicemembers are responsible for their families' conduct to some extent. This Karen's action of "wearing her husband's rank" and bullying other servicemembers is one of the worst things for his career.
correct me if I'm mistaken but that can get the serving member court martialed can't it?
@@1musamune Very possible
doesnt that apply when the family members are living on base?
@@firstname9954 That doesn't have to be the case. Even if off post, the spouse or child of a servicemember can get their soldier in trouble by trying to use his or her rank to bully others and/or get special treatment.
It's same in India. Daughter of an ex-Airmen here.
An Assamese family living in our upstairs quarter bullied us out of jealousy (we are Bengali).
The reason of their jealousy?
I got more attention as a Bharatnatyam dancer more than her daughter as I was in it longer than her as well.
Naturally, I was included in the cultural activities more too. Which is why they targetted us.
They would dump turmeric on our clothes line, ruin my mom's garden, and make noises upstairs after 12pm on school nights.
Their daughter even threw rocks at my pet kitten, Smoky.
One time, the Airmen himself caused some issues too after he was caught drinking with guests over after 10pm in his quarter with kids around by an officer.
Soon, a complained was filed with AFWWA, and the wife of AOC (in-charge of AFWWA) took matters into her own hands.
They were kicked out of the base & sent to A&N Islands.
They checked the records, and were kicked to some other base again, lol.
Story one: one story i read stands out of a karen ruining her family’s life by wearing her husband’s and eldest daughter’s rank wherever she went , she basically got both of them discarded due to her disgusting behavior, and then lied to her husband’s family to get both of them in trouble just for laughs, it didn’t end well for her when he divorced her and left her with nothing
First story: I was raised in the military have spent the better part of the past 50 years in and around the military and I can confirm that the service member (enlisted or officer) is in fact responsible for the actions of their dependents. This means that if their spouse or children are causing trouble they can face a non-judicial punishment for not maintaining good order and discipline. If they are stationed outside the United States, the family can be kicked out of the country and usually if that happens, the service member has to remain where they are so the family is sent home without them. In extreme cases, the member is kicked out but there is so much more that goes with that, up to and including incarceration with bread and water rations, reduction in rank and pay and a dishonorable discharge. The US Military has the ability to really mess up the lives of their people if they need to and yes, all of this can come from the actions of you spouse and kids. Many of those who grow up in the military environment who choose not to serve never quite understand why their parents were so strict growing up. Well, this is why. Kids do stupid stuff all the time in the US with little to no consequences but in the military where your parents can and will be held accountable for the actions of their kids, they are going to be strict because they dont wont their career and life messed up because of them. As for the statement the colonel made about Karen wearing her husbands rank, that is a very real thing. I have lost count of the number of times I herd the statement "You know who my husband is?" from would be Karens. The military really frowns on this and the spouse is typically notified quickly that it is happening so they can curb it because it could easily lead to disciplinary measures being taken. I've watch Flag Officers (Admirals/Generals) divorce their spouse over it. Its that serious.
That sucks, I was a shithead when I was a teen. My parents would have been screwed in the military
@@rustyjones7908 it didn't suck as much as you might think. It was just our reality. We grew up with discipline and understood how things were. I lived on military bases a good part of the time that were rather strict but also had really good amenities. We didn't need our parents with us to go to the pool or movies or arcade or anything else the base has to offer. Yes we had rules but we also had a freedom most kids don't have. And getting to see the world was awesome. The only real downside were when my dad was on a long deployment and we didn't see him for up to a year. Other than that, I wouldn't trade my childhood for anything.
I'm not saying there weren't troubled kids, especially teens, that's on the parents though and the military rarely went instantly to the extreme. Often times when we were in another country, trouble makers were sent back to stay with family before they could do real damage or the parent would request a transfer in order to save their career.
@@rustyjones7908 Its if they living in base. Also they understand to a degree kids are kids just don't go over the top. But spouses they have no chance for they are old enough to know better. Alimony will be cheaper then the 3 rank decrees after pension n retirement.
The last story is a refreshing reminder to never interrupt an idiot while they're making a mistake
Story 1: "Did she threaten to knock you down to private?" So this Karen has a reputation, lol. So funny when the Colonel chewed her out. That's what you get for trying to wear your spouse's rank.
Last story: I love how Karen's friend moved out of the way of the picture being taken so she wasn't a part of that shit show. 🤣🤣
It annoys me to no end that employers schedule their employees to end their shift at closing time.
Why would you do this when you know they have to CLOSE THE STORE.
Employees don’t just get to leave.
Obviously it's because they want and expect the employee to work the extra time without pay.
In case they want the employee(s) finishing at closing time, there are 2 things that can happen. Either you start closing and setting up for the next day beforehand so that you will be ready to clock out and leave. In this case you simply won't serve customers. Otherwise, you simply clock out at closing time, don't do any cleaning/set-up and leave. In both cases the consequences will be a wake-up slap for the manager/employer, and if not, you simply are working at the wrong place.
It’s true about service members being liable for their spouse’s actions, and it’s the same with their kids. I grew up going to school on Air Force bases, and the kids who did really messed up things sometimes ended up costing their parents promotions.
My great uncle was sadly kicked out of the Army when his first wife went to his posting and raised hell demanding to see him. Thankfully he divorced her (not soon enough) and the woman he's now married to is an angel.
This is so awful.. I could never behave like this, in any of my husbands workplaces.. I've always bought him lunch to his work, and always baked goods for his fellow workers.. Never would I shame him, nor embarrass him, anywhere.. Same with my kids.. You can't behave like an ahole and then expect respect from others.. I can't stand people like this!! A bad wife and, if they had kids, a bad mom..😂😂
It makes sense that they look at their family to see how they are outside of the uniform. If you can't control your family's actions how are you supposed to command anyone else?
Are slash has done enough stories about military spouses that I don't know why he had to say apparently....
@@SailorMya Sounds like a recipe for abuse, to be honest... especially in regards to kids. I imagine that a lot of neurodivergent kids don't get the help - or diagnosis - they need. Not to mention being at risk for physical abuse.
Story 1: my dad is a Retired 30 year Chief MSgt, USAF. (He retired when I was in my mid-20s.) One of his favorite stories, from when he was a young enlisted member, was the base commander started hearing complaints about officers' wives trying to wear their husbands' ranks. He sent out a base wide order that every married officer was to have their spouses at the base movie theater on a particular morning at something like 0900. As all these women, some with their children, came in he asked them to arrange themselves by rank. His own wife and daughters were sitting right up front. (They had been there before anyone else.) After they were all sitting, he thanked them all for their time and then informed them that he had a very serious and important message for them. "YOU HAVE NO RANK! YOU BEHAVIOR WILL IMPROVE OR IT WILL AFFECT YOUR HUSBAND! DISMISSED!"
He then walked out to stunned silence, followed by his wife and daughters. (They already knew what was coming.)
Moral improved significantly.
Pork story: I bet that Karen finally realized just how foolish she looked and was desperate for it to end. Of course she's going to feel like she's the victim somehow, as opposed to realizing that she was being obnoxious. But oh well, at least she got a healthy dose of humiliation in her life.
If I was OP, I would forever after call her "Miss Piggy"! 😂
last one, i was honestly expecting the karen to go like "How dare you put Bacon on my food! i said i did not want ANY bacon!" etc etc etc.
There was a Chief Warrant Officer 4 at the first post I was sent to after training. He was gung ho, played rugby on weekends and his catch phrase was "Too many chiefs and not enough indians." One day I was alone in the shop office when he walked in, froze, looked at me and said: "What are you doing?" and I replied "I'm an indian, talk to me." He could not say anything because I was right. Now he hated me even more than he did before.
story 3: if it was said once, it's worth saying again, "Don't fix what's not broken."
It's true regarding service personnel. My dad was a corporal in the R.A.F and never rose above that rank because my mum refused to kowtow to the 'higher ups'. She had a message sent home via my dad regarding her behaviour. The 'higher up was the Flight Lieutenant (medical officer). So, she made an appointment to see him. Went in and told him she needed diazepam for her nerves. When he asked why she needed it, she told him that his message made her stressed, and that if he had a problem with her, he should speak to her directly and NOT send messages home via her husband. She then went on to tell him that if ANY of their conversation was reported to her husband or anyone else, she would have him up before the medical board for violating patient confidentiality. He wrote her a script for diazepan, she left, and flushed them down the loo when she got home.
I'm sorry to hear about how much of a tosser your mum is, friend.
That’s badass tho. Sounds like he was harassing her. Good for her.
Spouses in the military trying to wear their husbands rank is VERY frowned upon. Be it Enlisted or Commissioned persons.
The Dependanpotamus
I bet I know what happened with the Karen on the last story! I have some friends from Saudi Arabia who have grown up their whole lives eating BLT sandwiches and bacon cheeseburgers, but they were all made with beef bacon. They didn’t even know that bacon was made with pork when they came over here, and didn’t believe me until we did research
TBF, "pig" is as offensive to an Arab as the "N"-word is to an American.
The "send her in" was actually so good.
First story: In the military the person in the military is 100% responsible for their dependents, children and partner. The military has no authority over non members, so the members are the ones that get the full force of the consequences that the dependent would have.
Story1: yep. Any active duty service member/officer is held accountable for their "dependents" actions. Meaning they need to keep their house in order and following the rules or their career can be over.
Story 1: My (then) husband decided to go back in the military after getting his degree and being in ROTC. This meant he'd be an officer. I explained to him I supported his career choice but I would not be participating. He could be stationed wherever and our daughter and I would be "home" . 1. I'd been in the military 2. I had my own career.
Prior to his first deployment I was "invited" to "tea" with all the officers wives. He gave me the lecture about officers wives thinking their husbands rank transferred to them.
I opted out.
First story lesson: never pull rank, even outside the military.
Friend of mine is the personal assistant of a high ranking officer, and his superior too is BEYOND strict when it comes to familly members abusing the position of their family member's rank, every time someone achive a certain rank or above, he sits them down and tells them "YOU are responsible for the actions of your family members if they try to use your rank, and I will bust you down to lower than private if they do, so MAKE SURE you lecture them NOT to use YOUR rank".
It's more than just enlisted, it's officers too. And wearing a spouse's rank is even worse for anyone with a commission. Officers are held to a higher standard of conduct, meaning any inappropriate conduct has the potential to leave an officer stuck at their rank (leading to mandatory retirement) or demotion/discharge.
The military slang term for people like that is dependapotamus, not to be confused with the dependa which is just a shortened version of a dependant.
Dependapotamus
Traditionally a service-members dependent who is a "stay at home mom" that doesn't do a damn thing all day besides sitting on the couch looking remarkably similar to jabba the hut leaching off of military benefits and eating anything that gets too close.
"Dude what the hell is that on your couch?"
"Thats my wife!"
"You need to do something with that dependapotamus."
In story 1, that commander was doing the wife's husband a favor. If she was allowed to keep doing that, especially to people less generous, she could end his career
Thank you, Daney! I know doing different voices is probably hard on your vocal cords, but this was a hugely entertaining episode. Thanks so much for consistently high quality content❤
Hate to be that guy but his name is Dabney
@@superphantom100 no its daphne.
I have a good friend who retired from the military. She has some great stories about her time, many enjoyable. You see, she was involved with the Society for Creative Anachronisms (SCA) that does Renaissance reenactments and such.
One thing about her was she was well liked as I played in a video game that 2 servicemen were acquainted with her. My friend had enlisted after college, her MOS got her acknowledged by her superior officer to go back to school for an advanced degree. She stayed in the reserves. On one weekend she got promoted to Master Sergeant then the next to Captain. She had finished a medical degree so jumped the higher sargeant ranks and both lieutenant ranks. She retired as a full Colonel. Full of good stories and some bad.
My parents were in the SCA back in the '90s.
Bacon also comes from the same animal.
“Oh sure, some magical animal.”
I'm just imagining how cathartic it must've been to hear 1st Karen get her rear torn open about that
And regarding the pork thing
How in the world does she not know where pork or bacon comes from? And after being explained that she doubles down? I feel bad for the friend, who I'm imagining told Karen and was blown off. I also wouldn't blame the friend if she was a pushover, as I, myself, am also kind of a pushover to some degree
Story 1, yep, if you’re in the military and your spouse is not…you’re responsible for their actions. I divorced my husband because he kept bouncing checks and I was getting in trouble for it.
Yes, it’s true. A military service member can and more often than not IS held responsible for a spouses poor behavior, which can adversely affect their career. Because of this, it can be a social minefield on base, particularly among officers wives. Some of the more Karen-like of them do what my hubs(USN) also refers to as “wearing your husbands rank”. He despises this and as a result kept me far away from the base and base politics, despite the fact that it would’ve been very beneficial for us both socially and financially. But I worked at Starbucks, and I could code switch with the best of them. He shouldn’t have worried. I still get along with the officers wives I encounter better than he does their husbands.
2nd story: Reminds me of James Shiba from History's Mightiest Disciple. One time, he made a deal with Akisame Koetsuji, saying who's ever disciple(Kenichi or Takeda fighting each other) loses this one match, the mentor had to shave off their own mustache. When Takeda lost, James took a razor, shave like 7 small strands of hair off of his mustache, then said "There, I'm done shaving!!!!!" Then he bolted out of the Dojo before Akisame could do anything about it.
re. the last story, I had something similar happen but in a light-hearted, everyone laughed at the end way.
I am Canadian. I took German as a foreign language in a class in Germany. We were telling 'what I did for my vacation' stories. I was trying to talk about how I saw a moose while camping. It turns out, there is no word for moose in German. The dictionary translates it to 'Elch' but that is the word for elk, a related but different animal.
I tried explaining the problem to the teacher, who kept insisting that Elch was the correct word, while I kept insisting it couldn't be because an elk is different. This was in the earliest days of public internet, and no one had cell phones so we couldn't just google and pull up images.
Finally, the teacher said 'but I know German better than you'
I agreed, but also noted that I knew Canadian wildlife better than him.
We both paused, had a laugh and ultimately created the word 'large-Canadian-elk' to discuss moose (and yes, in German that is all one word with no hyphens).
The next day, the teacher, to his credit, came in with books to confirm that an elk is an elk and a large-Canadian-elk is a moose. We all had another good laugh.
Most English words that have infiltrated other languages are there because there is no translation.
Story must be real. Sergeants have a radar for any free entertainment on base.
First story has some holes anyone with military experience would recognize. Example, you don't normally salute when entering an office because you're not normally wearing your cover indoors unless on official special duty.
Malicious compliance is one of my fave!!! 😂😂
Military wives
Omg dont these military partners get a debrief that they cannot pull rank. Its mind boggling how partners still think they are the same rank as their in service partner 🤦🏾♀️
...
Bacon story
TURKEY BACON THEY EAT TURKEY BACON 🤦🏾♀️
everyone sucks here...for not knowing theres two different types of bacon
Story 1: In most situations you won't get in trouble for your partners actions. It's only if they get into trouble on base or while representing the military.
For story one, it is very true. Your military spouse/parent is liable for all the things their civilian partner/kids actions. That is why so many dependas (what the military call spouse who rely on their military partner) are looked down on. Lots of them pull this not just with others of rank but also at the base grocery stores, base hospitals, basically any place on base they pull it.
1st story: Man,I feel bad for military guys who marry people who end up turning into Karens. Imagine loosing your career,which you might even had to put your life on, because your wife is a beach.
Story 1: You're on the mark. If your partner causes enough trouble, YOU will have to face the consequences in the military. It's just too much of a risk if you have someone throwing their weight around who doesn't have it.
even then, in this case, the Karen sounds like, what some in military circles call, a Dependapotamus. all she has is her husbands rank to go on. she's probably done this MANY TIMES and this is the biggest time it's backfired OR her husband finally let her go
Story 1: As prior military myself, I can 100% attest to the validity of that story. As a general sense of the stereotypes, Officers/high ranking NCO's (usually 1SG+) wives are all in the Family Readiness Group (FRG) and are ubermega Karen's, senior NCO's (SSG-SFC) creep on the new soldiers to the unit, and if a male junior enlisted gets married it's usually to a stripper or a dependapotamus. There are outliers, but those might as well be unicorns.
I heard of one instance where an officer's wife parked in a space reserved for flag officers, unaware that "flag officer" means "Rear Admiral or higher." As her husband was not any sort of Admiral, that did not go over well.
One of my family members use to be married to a karen who tried to bully others with his rank and let her kid (his step son) steal from the commissary. Stealing from a base is the biggest NONO any kid could really do. My cousin did get knocked down in rank and divorced her almost immediately after he was demoted. Karen was lucky she got a warning.
This might be my favourite type of Reddit posts. Hearing stories about stupid people playing themselves is hilarious!!
We had a saying in the Air Force: catching officer come doesn't give you his rank by osmosis.
As a military brat, I can say anything you do can affect your parent’s job. Especially if you’re living overseas, we knew a family where the kid ( high school age) had burned the house down. The local gov didn’t like that so had the family moved back to America, the parents were not pleased.
Military story: One of the biggest cardinal sins a military spouse can have is to act as if they actually have the authority of their spouse's rank. They do NOT! This can cause a world of hurt to both the actual military person and the spouse. The spouse can lose privileges at the base exchange/px or even be refused on-base privileges. The military person faces non-judicial punishment, restriction from the base except for when on duty, possible loss of pay and/or rank. And a transfer to a VERY UNdesirable duty post is possible as well. Most military personnel make it very clear to their spouses that this is not allowed, but there are always some that try to push the issue.
I learned to drive and navigate in the days long before GPS using paper maps and taking note of landmarks. I rarely went wrong. My wife and I used to go out and "get lost" going down roads we hadn't been on before, just to see where they went. It wasn't too long before going down a strange road was no longer a big deal because we knew we'd eventually hit a road we did know.
Pork vs bacon story: How in the world did she not KNOW bacon is a pork product???
Story #1---There is no more political job in the US Army than that of the officer's wife.
A good one can make or break an officer's career. This one was the worst kind. Whether he divorced her for his career or his sanity...good job!
At least Val realised her error and sought to rectify it as soon as possible.
In the military all service members are responsible for the actions of all dependents.
I’m not a military person (I have friends and relatives that were/are in the survise Meereen’s navy and army) and from what they told me this is sadly common and wife/girlfriend doesn’t know that it can be a detriment to there husband or boyfriend military career
As a retired veterans of the US Army. Technically the soldier is not completely responsible for the actions of family members. Note I said technically. In reality if an officer or enlisted wife pulls crap it reflects negatively on the officers or enlisted's career. On top of that many senior officers wives try to "wear" their husbands rank (unfortunately some get away with it.) BUT i have been in some commands where they try this and it ends badly for the officer. As an enlisted I disliked Officers wives so I made sure to steer clear of them.
Story 1: I imagine that Sanders has experienced this kind of thing often enough that he's got the countdown on lock. I imagine that he probably thinks it's honestly funny.
story 1: Karen's husband quickly learns it was not worth it to sell his soul to a "Demon in the Sack" for passionate hugging. (I mean, good grief, was the passionate hugging THAT great, that he'd put up with a full-on Cluster of Bees Karen? DISCLAIMER: "Cluster of Bees" ONLY refers to abusive instances of Cluster B). More dudes need to take the sage advice of, "My Son, Stick It Not In Crazy".
When it comes to story 1, I would want to shake Colonel Stone's hand and thank him for his service to this country. And also tell him that I'm glad that there are a lot of people who don't put up with entitled peoples attitudes
In the military you are responsible for your dependents no matter what rank you are.
In the haircut story, o p should have asked the none if she would also have Samson cut his hair LOL
Honestly wondered when someone would tell her Jesus had long hair and wasn’t clean shaven 😂
I used to watch a CZcamsr called scrubs, until he retired his CZcams career he used to make a 12 days of scrubs video that was his compilations of his favourite stories from that year with different themes for 12 days like one day it would be about karens the next it would be crazy high school pranks ect, ect. I think its a cool idea because it would show memories of that year in an extra long video.
Story 1: The fact that FS Sanders did a count down tells me that this is, by far, not the first entitled wife Colonel Stone has dealt with.
Thank you again for getting me through the day with your stories
I think a lot of the military centered stories Rslash does has someone or OP bring up the rule that the soldier is responsible for their family's actions and they if it gets bad with they can actually get removed from the service. Especially the Karen's that think they can wave around their spouse's rank as a threat
Dependapotami are literally the worse thing a serviceman can be stuck with.
@@SableDrakonno lies detected!
Officer's wives demanding to be treated based on their husband's rank always backfired. My wife (me, a junior enlisted at the time) told a senior NCO ordering her to move her car to "Report her to her chain of command, oh wait, I am a civilian...fuck off"
I had a talk with the CSM, he backed her up
The flip-side: A LTC's wife managed to so alienate every wife in his command that they all refused to attend any Family Readiness Group meeting she was a part of. When asked why she wasn't part of the FRG, she lost her cool and ranted for an hour about how they were all *******************
He was passed over for promotion, repeatedly.
He was an amazing leader, she ended up banned from post and hurt his career to the point that he had to retire 2 (or more) grades below what he should have
I cannot express more clearly; He was amazing. A genuine leader that literally spent money out of his own pocket during OIF2 so his soldiers had SAT phone time to call family (close to $25,000) and his wife was so evil that he couldn't be promoted because they were dealing with hundreds of lawsuits
I would have charged the gates of hell with a bucket of gasoline for this Officer. His wife ruined a brilliant career
Not just enlisted are responsible for their spouse's behavior.
Last op reminds me of Scott Pilgrim. "Chicken parm isnt vegan?"
I will never understand why the spouses of military officers think they have the same rank as their spouse and as such an order anyone below their spouses rank to do whatever they want. It was really bad in the USMC, having the wife of 2nd Lieutenant So-And-So running up to me to yell at me for disrespect because I didn't salute her as I walked by was more common of an occurrence than I'd like to admit
Imagine not knowing that bacon is pork 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've always had a goatee. I started working for a security company that required employees to be clean shaven. I however worked at a satellite post that wasn't customer facing so I kept my beard. Other officers complained about me but my boss gave me leeway since I didn't interact with clients. One day the position of lieutenant opened up so I applied. My boss did a 180 and handed me a razor telling me if I wanted the promotion he wanted to see hair on it. He gave me the promotion and I shaved the edges of my goatee handing back the razor with hair on it. He laughed and admitted defeat.
I wish the last OP shared some of the comments left on the Facebook post before they took it down! That would have been gold!
"WHY! ARE YOU EATING PORK ON A SACRED HOLIDAY!!!"
"I DIDN'T KNOW BACON WAS PORK!!!"
LOL or something like that!
You just know the first several replies from her, were just her yelling at her own family members that she was eating "bacon" and _not_ "pork" and to "learn the difference."
Members of the military are also responsible for their guests on base.
Story 2, so how much money/time was spent on haircuts every single week? I think Phil's dad was the one who got done in
It was about principle to him. And for some Catholics, defeating nuns is an important sport.
@@mbyerly9680 eh obviously the nun wasn't as bothered as your man, otherwise she'd have gone, nah that's a shit haircut, going to expel you. Probably saw the cost and had a right laugh at his "expense" 😂
It would have been better to refuse the note: it’s not printed on paper with a company header, doesn’t fit a standardized framework, has no means for authentication, and crucially it doesn’t carry the signature of the person “requesting” overtime - where’s the request paperwork?
Yeeeees, more Maliciouscompliance. Been waiting for this ever since I finished up the playlist.
Thanks for the video!
1st story "I'll stand right here until you do". My response. "Ok." and go back about my ACTUAL business and just let her stand there.
Military spouses being put in their place for wearing their husband's rank are my favorite stories. I have a few military friends and have been told that it happens a lot, often with no repercussions for the entitled spouse. Some of the wives are insufferable.
Karen's are either getting crazier or ball-ier to thing they can tell a high ranking officer in the freaking military what to do!
Here in Austria people looove their titles! What I never understood was that the wives were also greeted in their husband’s titles, even they never studied for it themselves or earned it. Like “this is mrs. Dipl. Ing. Blabla” “nice to see you mrs. Direktor” “mrs. Dr. Bla bla”. Even on old gravestones you can see the engravings of titles next to women’s names. But it’s not popular anymore thank the day!
That last story is great. Definitely got a good laugh from it
This videos keep my day moving when things are slow! One of my favorite youtubers!
As per your story about Karen and the full bird Colonel, any service member from E-1 through O-10 general is fully responsible for their spouse or significant others and family.
My daily dose of rslash is making me a rslash addict
That's what entitled military wives like this Karen don't understand, they are an active danger to their husbands' military careers and many times those husbands are going to divorce them instantly when they realize their own livelihood and rank is on the line.
I haven't seen a wife wearing the husband's rank.
I have been berated for asking a woman who is not disabled if she could park in a non-disabled spot literally behind her (i was on parking duty.)
I saw her parking, but didn't see a disabled placard or symbol on the license plate, so I asked her if she realized it was a disabled space. She said she had a tag on her license plate. I double checked and they had a vanity cover that was partially obscuring the "disabled veteran" section on the plate. I asked what branch she had been in. She huffed and told me it was her husband's plate. I asked if this meant that she was not disabled, and she confirmed it. So I again asked if she could park in the empty space directly behind her and leave the disabled space open for a disabled person. She got upset and started ranting about how her husband served and was wounded to get the plate -to which, I said I was appreciative and he should certainly use it... but she had told me herself she wasn't disabled and I asked that she extend that same courtesy her husband deserved to others. She refused and said that she was entitled to use the plate and the space.
...I wish I could say I gave her a ticket, or that I told her husband... sadly, this woman was just allowed to have her way...
The Dependapotamus - a Karen who is a special kind of special.
My Dad was in the air force and we lived on base. It was drilled into our brains that anything we did against the rules my Dad would be punished for it by his commanding officer and then we would be punished by him when he came home. We were perfectly well behaved children for the 3 years we lived on base! Back in the 50’s and 60’s a police officer was more likely to tell a parent to spank their child than arrest them.
I dread to imagine what you mean by "punished by him."
two points regarding the karen whose husband is in the military. The husband isn't responsible for the acts of his wife. Havings said that, the husband (major) can be chewed out for what his wife is doing. His boss the Colonel, can't demote someone for that. He can, however, give him lousy assignments, bad reviews and so on. The second point and i could be wrong about this, is that when a colonel or someone in the military has an assistant, i highly doubt the assistant salutes their boss every time they enter the room. It would become cumberson and inefficient and i highly doubt either the either one of them would want to do so more than once or twice a day. For example, for air force pilots in the pilot section of the base, no one solutes unless someone is a full colonel or above.
Story 1: Enlisted Officer who is married and have children, he/she is also responsible for their family's actions. It reflects on their careers. That is why, as a child of an Enlisted officer we must be in our good behavior.
I was in high school in the early 70's, when long hair was de riguer for the boys. Some parents would rant about them being "girly" but all they would have had to do it admire it and require hair to be long. They guys would have cut it in a second. Now that last story? At a cafe where I was a baker a customer came in and ordered one of our most popular sandwiches, that had turkey, ham, and bacon.(I still miss them) He asked for the bacon to be taken off, but came back and complained about the hame, "Im a Muslim! I can't have pork" I think he was just trying to get comped, as he could have ordered a regular turkey sandwich cheaper.
Santa’s response still gets me laughing so hard.
I had a guy tell me how vegan he was getting his little frappuccino and I told him that the caramel drizzle contained dairy.
He didn’t believe me and told me I was wrong.
He was such a karen
He tried to show how "vegan" he is by ordering a non-vegan food item? How DAIRY.
