Karens are everywhere.
In recent years, the term “Karen” has become popular internet slang to describe a specific type of entitled, demanding, or aggressive person. Karens appear in a variety of settings and scenarios, from viral videos to social media interactions, demonstrating their often unpleasant behaviour. Karens have become synonymous with entitlement and privilege, whether they ask to speak with the manager about a minor inconvenience or refuse to follow rules in public places. Karen can be any gender, but it is most commonly used to describe a middle-aged woman with a bob haircut and a self-righteous attitude.
The term “Karen” has sparked debates about privilege, entitlement, and social dynamics in contemporary society. It reminds us to be mindful of our actions and interactions with others, regardless of our personal beliefs or perspectives. Even the term ‘Karen in the wild’ has gained popularity because you never know when you’ll run into one. As it turns out, there is almost certainly at least one Karen on an aeroplane. The following story is about one such person. Planes always seem to be a gathering place for these types of people, and their entitlement can take centre stage.

The simple title says it all.
Karen didn’t even talk to anyone or make eye contact.
However, nobody said anything, as everyone just wanted the day to be over.
That is when the captain chimed in with an announcement.
After a little while, the captain came in, and what happened next was quite surprising.

He kept ‘pushing’ Karen backwards until she was at the rear of the plane.
That is when he asked her to sit down and made another announcement.
As you can imagine, laughter was heard throughout the whole plane.
After reading this, I have to say the revenge was fantastic. While I’m not sure what she expected to accomplish by standing at the door so early, I’m confident she learned her lesson. And, as some have mentioned in the comments, she may have had an emergency. However, if that were the case, she could have mentioned it to a hostess instead of standing there.
I honestly believe that Karen thought she would be the first to exit the plane in this manner. I understand that plane rides can be uncomfortable, and it’s understandable that you want to get out as soon as possible, but this is not the way to do so.
I usually just spend time napping while on a plane.
To be fair, the Lord of the Rings franchise is quite ‘dense’.

Where can I get this T-shirt?
This must be the case.
I can somewhat relate to this, though I am not as tall.
That would have been perfect.
I have seen it, and it is glorious!

This is not a word you would associate with this kind of behaviour.
I hope that this is what actually happened.
I’ve had to deal with a similar issue in the past.
Exactly! If this were the case, she could have just gone to the toilet.
They usually don’t mind if it is an emergency.
