Top 10 Times Male Karens Faced Justice

For the employees at a Robeks store in Connecticut, it was like any other Saturday in 2022. Until James Iannazzo came in again. Previously, he bought his son a smoothie. However, his child has a peanut allergy, something Iannazzo didn’t tell the workers. So, his son had a severe allergic reaction and ended up in the hospital. Iannazzo blamed the teenage workers for not knowing his family’s medical history. He verbally abused the poor employees with violent threats and racial insults. He also threw a drink at one of the staff, and the cops were called. Luckily, another worker had the snazzy idea of recording this horrendous behavior. Once the video became viral, Iannazzo’s employer, Merrill Lynch, fired him after his arrest.

Apparently, like Karens, Kens regularly can’t cope with putting a piece of cloth over their mouth for a bit of time to protect others. In 2022, at a ski resort in Ontario, Canada, one snowboarder wasn’t happy with the business’s wear-a-mask rule. The guy kept trying to get on the ski lift, but the security staff repeatedly stopped him. The unfortunate patient skiers had to watch as Ken's actions slowly ate into their slope time. After the man tries to fight out of security's grasp, the police arrive, and the crowd cheers as this drama finishes. The man was escorted from the resort, but no charges were filed. However, he did get the embarrassment of this video going online.

In the modern world, online reviews are vital. A business can be successful or collapse on that mark out of five. Well, David DeMerchant phoned the restaurant Frank D’s to order takeout. However, he was put on hold. So, DeMerchant let the world know about his bad experience. Sadly for him, the owner added some details he conveniently left out. His server actually had a seizure while on the phone with DeMerchant. He then arrived at the restaurant to pick up his order, ignoring the ambulance outside. When they offered to make it there, DeMerchant refused, went home, and wrote this misleading review. Now, he has to live with the shame of getting publicly called out.

After having a few drinks, people tend to get an inflated ego. In 2021 at the Linksters Taproom in Florida, one patron thought more highly of his fighting skills than he should have. In the video, we see him yelling at a guy on the street. As the guy approaches, the patron goes to showcase what he’s learned from watching three UFC fights with a roundhouse kick. Only… he misses, big time. He pretty much takes himself out of the battle with some instant karma. Various other bar folk descend on the scene and separate the duo. However, the patron tries to punch the guy to save face… it doesn’t work. On a side note, the lights on the tree outside are really mesmerizing.

Waitstaff has to deal with a lot of annoying and unnecessary stress from customers. Honestly, they should be paid so much more than what they get. Especially this IHOP employee in 2022. One sneaky customer recorded one man having a meltdown at the restaurant. This Ken decided that slow service was the thing that tipped him over. After arguing with Ken and getting abused, she tells him to leave and walks off. Like a rational person, he picks up his glass and throws it on the floor, causing pieces to fly around and hit other people. Yikes. Quickly, security descends on Ken and forces him out of the restaurant with plenty of shame.

You know it’s a big deal when a performer has to stop what they’re doing to address some nonsense in the audience. And that’s exactly what happened in Georgia in 2022 as the comedian Lewis Black was doing his set. Comedians usually deal with hecklers swiftly and harshly. But not in this case. Black bluntly called out the guy who was harassing people in the audience. The crowd then turns their displeasure on Ken and yells for him to leave. Quickly, security arrives to escort him from the venue. At this point, Ken produces his best Randy Marsh impression from “South Park” by yelling that he thought this was America. It is. Which is why a private business can throw him out.

The bachelorette party is a cherished symbol for those taking the plunge into married life. In 2022, one group of women rented a $4,000 AirBnB to have a big shindig. But one local resident wasn’t happy. This Ken trespassed onto the property as the women were enjoying the pool. He reportedly videoed them to make it extra creepy. Yelling that the party is disturbing the neighborhood, apparently, he uses transphobic slurs and threatens violence against the group. The woman stood their ground with this nonsense and called the police. Unfortunately for Ken, he was arrested for his nosey behavior. On top of that, he was already on probation for a domestic dispute the week before. Uh-oh.

Hey, even famous men can be Kens! It’s not just a title for us normies. In 2018, actor Alec Baldwin had a bit of an… incident. He had apparently gotten into an argument with Wojciech Cieszkowski over a parking space in New York City. Instead of dealing with it rationally, Baldwin reportedly shoved Cieszkowski hard in the chest and then punched him across the jaw. In 2019, Baldwin sued Cieszkowski for the accusations and false imprisonment. He also claimed Cieszkowski was exaggerating his injuries. But the actor did admit guilt for a violation of harassment. Baldwin received a conditional discharge and enrollment in an anger management course. In 2022, this drama eventually concluded when the case was settled.

Sometimes, people come together to get justice. In 2021, on a flight from Philadelphia to Miami, a drunk Maxwell Berry was causing havoc as he groped two female flight attendants. When a male attendant confronted him, things kicked off. After spouting verbal abuse, Berry attempted to attack the man, but it didn’t work out for him. The attendant, cool as a cucumber, restrained Berry easily. Other passengers got involved and helped by tapping the unruly Berry to his chair. Genius. He was arrested when the plane landed. On top of his cinematic embarrassment going viral, Berry faced charges of three counts of assault. He pled guilty and received sixty days in prison with one year of supervised release.

On England’s London Underground, there’s a list of unspoken rules. Don’t talk loudly, don’t speak to strangers to be friendly, and don’t eat smelly stuff. There’s also a written rule about not spitting racist vitriol that one Ken ignored. In 2020, he was yelling aggressive abuse at other passengers like “this is my home” and other such ridiculous things. He even referred to non-white people as his “pets.” Gross. As the tube stops, a group of black guys goes to leave. However, Ken tries to intimidate them. Suddenly, one of the guys spins and punches him, knocking the now-unconscious Ken to the floor in a heap. While cheers erupted from the carriage, some people put Ken in the recovery position.
