From Karens humiliating themselves in public to cheaters deliciously put on blast, prepare for another cracking collection of satisfyingly karmic tales!
The Beer Burglar
TikToker mamataay was going through some CCTV footage at the store she worked at when she stumbled across a clip she knew the world needed to see. Behold, the world’s greatest criminal mastermind. At least he made off with an entire third of the beers he was trying to steal and all it cost him was his dignity!
The Phone Tosser
I can’t stand littering. So, imagine my joy when I read this tale from redditor Piano9717. Piano had just hiked to an undisclosed tourist spot on top of a tall cliff. A majestic view, fresh air, what’s not to like?
Well, one joker was sat staring at his phone rather than the horizon. While scrolling like a dribbling idiot, he grabbed a sandwich from his bag and peeled off the wrapper. But when he’d finished stuffing his mouth, he couldn’t be bothered to find a trash can to get rid of the wrapping. So, what did this genius decide to do? Throw it off the cliff of course! At least, that was the plan. Somehow, his brain short circuited and he ended up tossing his phone over the edge instead! If only he had an old Nokia, then at least it would’ve survived.
Egged And Owned
You got to get your eyes off that screen and onto the real world, it could get you hurt. When Reddit user abbys_alibi was out grocery shopping, she spotted a woman with her face buried in her smartphone, oblivious to her surroundings and about to walk right into the end of an aisle.
Being a good Samaritan, abby piped up with a “watch out!” before muttering about how phones will surely be the death of us. What a nice thing to do! Only, the stranger didn’t agree. With a look of sheer disgust, she exclaimed that abby should “Shut the frick up” and mind her own business, only, she didn’t say frick.With that, the rude woman went back to her phone, turned a corner, and promptly walked smack bang into a support beam. She cried out, fell back onto her butt, and sent her grocery basket flying, her eggs smashing to pieces around her.
Now sitting on the eggy floor surrounded by other shoppers, she awkwardly looked around until her eyes met abby’s, who simply smiled at her and walked away. For the cherry on top, as abby left, she noticed the nasty woman’s phone was on the floor too, its screen completely shattered. Bet she’ll pay attention next time!
Lambo Ego
Some people live for attention, but this next guy is something else. July 14th, 2018. A car show in Florida known as Auto Pride was well underway, where the flashiest cars imaginable are paraded through the streets for automobile enthusiasts to gawk at. But that’s the thing, the day is about the cars, not the drivers.
One guy, driving a Lamborghini Aventador, clearly didn’t understand that. As soon as he spotted the cameras in the crowd he decided he needed to make things all about him. While stuck in traffic, he got out of the vehicle and
started posing for photos. But that just wasn’t enough for his ego, so he also climbed on his vehicle.
Because he was in traffic, the absolute goon had to sit there, embarrassed as all hell behind that cracked windshield while he got chewed out by his passenger. The repairs likely cost him around $1,000 to boot. Was it really worth it?
Merge Mayhem
Elsewhere, Redditor shaka_sulu was driving along the freeway when he tried to enter the merging lane, but there was someone already in it who refused to let shaka in. Our guy politely gestured, asking the driver to allow him to merge. He was less than receptive.
For some reason, the other driver absolutely lost it, mouthing expletives over and over. Problem is, the road rager was so fixated on shaka that they didn’t realize they’d closed the gap with the car ahead and ended up rear ending them! Both cars stopped in a panic, and shaka had a clear lane ahead to merge into. Sucks for the guy who was rear ended, but hopefully our enraged driver learnt a valuable lesson.
Wrong Flight Karen
In 2019, the husband of Reddit user NeedANapAndAHalf was on a business trip and had a first-class seat on the plane, 3A. Only, shortly after sitting down, a wild Karen approached him, demanding that he get up and move because 3A was hers. Confused, Mr. Nap showed the woman his ticket, but she was right, it was for the same seat! What was going on?
Without regard for his own valid ticket, she insisted that our hero get lost and started kicking up a big old scene, grabbing the attention of a flight attendant who approached the duo. Being a polite guy, Mr. Nap just offered to move, he didn’t want the conflict anyway.But there was a twist in the tale. As the pilot welcomed the passengers and wished them a pleasant journey to Charlotte, the Karen swore in a panic and hastily called over the attendant. It turns out she was on the wrong plane! Her seat was 3A, but on a completely different flight! Mr. Nap watched with a smug smile as she frantically dashed off, then took back his rightful place. All’s well that ends well!
Car Scam Slam
On August 10th, 2024, 63-year-old William Hayes waltzed into a Kia car dealership in Tennessee and purchased two SUVs, spending a grand total of $158,885. Overjoyed at the massive purchase, the staff congratulated Hayes on the new cars and recorded a lovely little video of them shaking his hand. But the warm fuzzies abruptly ended when cops suddenly stormed the dealership and threw cuffs on the prospective buyer! What?
Before sealing the deal the employees had checked over the guy’s driver’s license on their system and noticed it seemed to belong to a dead man. So, they’d alerted the cops and played along as if nothing was wrong. In reality, Hayes had stolen the late man’s identity and used it to try and snag the cars so the bill would go to the guy he was impersonating and not himself! Thankfully, staff kept the goof busy long enough for the cops to arrive. Hayes was charged with forgery and attempted theft of property, both crimes worth anywhere between $60,000 and $250,000. And he won’t be able to pass the charges onto a ghost!
Meatball Meltdown
We’ve all dreamed up a bunch of ways we’d love to see our school bullies get what’s coming to them. I know I have! So, I couldn’t help but feel an incredible surge of glee while reading this tale from Redditor TD.
Back in high school, a quiet girl named Emily was sat trying to eat her lunch in the cafeteria when she was approached by Michael, the “class clown.” This kid got his kicks from putting everybody else down, and Emily was his latest target.
In front of all the other kids, he started to tear into the girl, mocking her looks, her clothes, you name it. Poor old Emily just stayed quiet and tried to hide behind a novel, but Michael was unrelenting. When he was finally finished, the bully turned to leave, a satisfied look on his face. But karma wasn’t satisfied, not yet.He'd been holding a tray of gross cafeteria food, and somehow, as he turned around he slipped and fell, sending it flying straight towards him! And it was spaghetti and meatballs day. Michael collapsed with a thud, as sauce and limp noodles splatted all over him. The room erupted into laughter, only this time he was the butt of the joke! Humiliated, covered in tomato sauce, and picking meat out of his hair, let’s hope the embarrassing experience made him move pasta his bullying days.
Kicked By Karma
Sadly, some bullies never grow out of it, the targets of their bile just change. In 2024, a news story went semi-viral in Indian social media circles. A group of young hooligans had broken into a barn and were entertaining themselves by harassing the innocent cows inside. The big bovines were just chilling minding their business. So, whatever possessed these jerks to start poking, prodding and slapping them is beyond me.
Eventually, one of the goons got a little too big for his boots and went to kick one of the animals. Bad move. Immediately feeling threatened, the cow leapt into action, literally! It jumped up and kicked the guy with all its might, sending him flying into a nearby wall. No idea what happened to the fella after that, but hopefully he wound up with a broken bone or two!
Shrimp Strike
TikToker rural_life_china uploaded a video attempting to boil a mantis shrimp alive. Nasty, right? Well, it wouldn’t exactly go the way she wanted.
When Cooking A Live Mantis Shrimp At A Restaurant Goes Wrong! by Real To The People Imagine losing a fight to a shrimp! In fairness, remember this is a mantis shrimp, an aggressive and dangerous species with claws strong enough to break glass! Something this woman found out the hard way. He should’ve gone for the face. Eventually the crustacean was removed, and she turned off the camera, so we can only assume that poor ol’ shrimpy was eaten in the end. But he shall never be forgotten.
Cheater's Collapse
They say love is blind, and I reckon it’s true. Not in terms of appearances, but because it can make you totally unable to see when a partner treats you like dirt! Just ask Reddit user 0nepunchman! He was in a relationship with a girl who we’ll call Bella. Punch paid for everything: food, hobbies, heck, even her university fees!
Despite this, he noticed that Bella had a tutor she seemed to be getting on a little too well with. Every time our guy brought it up with her though, she’d shut it down immediately by laughing at him or becoming enraged. The red flags were all there.
So, when he discovered that Bella had been cheating on him with Mr. tutor since day one, it might have been surprising, but it was crushing. See, she’d accidentally synced her logins to her boyfriend’s laptop, allowing him to see undeniable proof of her infidelity. Angry and upset, he worked up the nerve to confront her about it, only when he did, she just laughed at him. I’m dead serious. She told him, to his face, that she found financially using him hilarious and she loved getting caught. The kicker? Mr. tutor man wasn’t even the first, she’d cheated on him with a monumental 20 guys in total. What a piece of work! Utterly devastated, Punch walked out on the relationship.Several years later, and he’d moved firmly on, but, shockingly, the witch got back in touch with him, lamenting what a huge mistake she’d made. She moaned about how much she wished they were still together and begged him for a second chance. Punch simply said he forgave her for her actions, but they were still finished. Too right! He hadn’t deleted her social media so was very aware of the multiple broken down relationships she’d burned through since he’d left her. But even that wasn’t the last he heard from her. A few years later, on Punch’s birthday, he got a phone call from Bella, now overweight, in a dead-end job, alone and living in her dad’s basement. She wished him happy birthday, before asking him a single question, “When are you going to take me out on a date?”
After everything that she did, all the lies, the incessant begging for him to take her back, she had the gall to ask that? Completely taken aback by the audacity, Punch just burst into laughter. I can only imagine the embarrassment and rejection she felt, it might’ve even been half of what she put our hero through.
Fast Food Karen
It seems there are three constants in life: death, taxes, and Karens getting karma! A reddit user named prunepicker was patiently waiting in line at a busy fast-food restaurant when suddenly a Karen made her presence known.
Absolutely enraged at having to wait in line with the regular people, the Karen flew into a dribbling frenzy. She screeched and screamed at the poor girl behind the counter, but instead of yielding to her, the girl she only rolled her eyes. At this, Karen’s power levels rose beyond what anyone thought possible as she demanded to see the manager. Fortunately for everybody involved, the manager wasn’t in that day, so Queen Karen could only carry on with her manic ranting, claiming she was going to call the corporate office of the fast-food chain. This went on until her order was ready, when the bully marched to the counter and snatched up her tray. However, when she turned to leave, she slipped. The tray flew up, and four drinks all exploded onto the horrid hag, drenching her in front of all the people who’d been forced to listen to her tirade. Safe to say, the serving girl had a good old snigger.
Pot Smash
I’ll never understand the mentality of goons that roam the streets breaking things or knocking them over for no apparent reason. Some jerks exactly like this were caught on camera in Ontario, Canada in January 2024. At 10:45 PM, the CCTV of a restaurant called The Counter caught the losers walking by their place. They spotted a flowerpot and, well, check the clip below.
CAUGHT ON CAMERA: Vandalism fall and fail by Toronto Sun He was clearly trying to lob the pot through the restaurant window for whatever stupid reason.
Now he’s under all that soil we could try watering his head to see if he grows a brain. Last I heard the cops were looking for these goons, and they could well face charges.
Karma Against Thief
Back in November 2023, an elderly biker was riding through the streets of São Paulo, Brazil, when he was suddenly accosted by two bad guys on their own bike. They jumped off, held a gun to his face and started to rob the vulnerable man, rummaging through the poor guy’s pockets for anything valuable.
After getting what they could from him, they forced him off his bike, it was the final prize. One shot off on the stolen motorcycle, while the second followed with their own. But he didn’t get far. Not even 10 feet away, the thief suddenly collapsed, flopped right off the bike and lay motionless in the street. Unbelievably, as if struck down by God himself, the
guy had expired from a sudden illness on the spot.
Medics arrived on the scene, but could do nothing more than confirm that his clogs had been firmly popped. I can’t find any specific info on what claimed his life, but I’m not sure it matters. I can only hope the other villain got his just desserts too!
Pepper Spray Snooper
Don’t go snooping through people’s things. It’s wrong for one, but you could also stumble across something you wished you hadn’t. Case in point, Redditor coldy told a tale of a time she was staying at her then-boyfriend’s place for the night.
She and her man were snuggled in bed watching a movie when his bratty sister suddenly pushed open the door and demanded she take the blanket they were using. The two siblings argued about it before coldy pointed out that there was a spare in the wardrobe. Sis opened it up, found the spare, and left. Peace again.
That is until she barged back in complaining that the blanket, and I quote, “didn’t work.” Cue yet another brother/sister row before she eventually left. This time, she didn’t come back. Weirdly, later that night at around 3am, coldy heard somebody taking a shower. Odd time to wash? But we’ll get back to that.The next day coldy woke up late, well after her boyfriend had gone to work. But when she went downstairs, his sister and mom were waiting for her! Mom held up coldy’s keys and asked if they were hers. Coldy had an interesting keychain, one with a mini pepper spray on the end. Turns out the sister had accidentally sprayed herself with it! It’d made it tough for her to breathe and she’d been forced to take a shower last night to wash it off.
But wait, why had she had coldy’s keys in the first place? They’d been inside her coat pocket all night! Sis’s explanation? That she thought she’d been looking for her phone in her own coat pocket to use as a torch but because it was dark had mistakenly gone through coldy’s instead. On finding the little pepper spray, she’d assumed it was a torch, removed the cap, and fired it directly into her own face.What a load of bologna! She’d clearly been going through coldy’s pockets on purpose! Even if she really thought it was her own jacket, she’d know that those weren’t her keys just from touch alone. Plus, what kind of torch has a cap on it? Just because she wasn’t wearing the coat at the time doesn’t make it any less shady. But at least the psycho got an immediate taste of painful karma!
First-Class Win
Unfortunately, psychos are everywhere. And Redditor “anon_e_mous” was unfortunate enough to encounter multiple of them one time he was catching a flight. He’s a very tall and large man and struggles to fit in a lot of plane seats, so opts for the aisle seat whenever possible. Well, he’d just walked over to the seat he booked when he saw there was a total stranger sat in it.
The man was part of a couple who hadn’t paid for seats next to one another, so opted to just steal anon’s. What the hell’s wrong with people? Naturally anon was peeved. But no matter what he said, no matter how he rationalized his right to his own seat, the couple didn’t care. At that point, an air stewardess, who’d been watching the ordeal, came over and tried to ask them to move herself. You’d think that the authority she held would finally get them to scarper, but no! They started arguing with her too! Eventually, she gave up, turned to anon and said "There's a first-class upgrade if you want it, I was going to offer it to these people to move from your seat, but they clearly want these seats..." You gotta love a happy ending!
Trapped Thief Begs Car Owner For Help
Back in September 2024, in Miami Florida, Julio Solano entered a parking garage and walked over to his vehicle. But as he approached, he was shocked to see someone’s head pop up from behind the seat, there was somebody in his car! Panic time. Someone was trying to carjack him. Was he dangerous? Would he attack Julio? All those concerns drifted away when he realized that the would-be carjacker was stuck inside!
Video shows burglar ask corvette owner for help after breaking into his car in Miami Beach by WPLG Local 10
The Corvette that Julio owns doesn’t allow any of the electronics to function without the keys present. So the guy must have broken in somehow, only to find the car wouldn’t start and the automatic doors wouldn’t open! He was trapped, basically gift wrapped for the cops to come and get.The perp, Ravesh Rabindranauth, was
taken away in cuffs, and Julio and his car were safe. If only Ravesh had known that there was a manual door release under the seat, but then, I’m sure he was too stupid to figure it out or do some basic research.
Porch Pirate Fail
If I had a penny for every time I came home to find a package I’d been expecting had been stolen from my porch, I’d have a few pennies. So, watching this clip of some home CCTV from Washington, USA, filled me with a sense of righteous glee. A not so-professional thief spied a package while driving by and decided to pull over and try to swipe it.
INSTANT KARMA FAILURE SERVED TO PACKAGE THIEF!!! by Forward News Today (Forward News Today) She seems like she’s in serious pain, I hope she hasn’t broken anything. You gotta love the dude getting out of the car and slowly walking towards her, what a knight in shining armor. And he went back for the packages! Dude, your cretinous wife has very clearly broken something, maybe focus on that first!? Just to really drive home how scummy these two are, one of those packages contained medication for one of the residents. Unbelievable. But don’t worry, these two morons were quickly arrested.
Budget Pimp's Ice Slip
Reddit user Kawauso98 was out walking his dog one day when he saw what can only be described as a budget pimp walking towards them. Big coat, furry collar, sunglasses, flashy hat, the works. What happened next was completely unexpected. For seemingly no reason at all, the Lidl pimp suddenly started barking aggressively at Kawauso’s dog! I’m talking loud, in its face barking.
Shocked, angry, and bemused, Kawauso took his pet aside and tried his best to soothe the now incredibly distressed doggo. The weird guy stopped barking, but the exact moment he walked past them, he slipped on a conveniently placed patch of black ice and landed flat on his back. Kawauso continued on his way with his pal, leaving the freak lying flat on the sidewalk. Mess with doggo? You get what you frickin’ deserve!
Welding Class Creep
One internet user we’ll call Michelle was the only female student in her class at a welding school, and there was one dude called John who hated it. He firmly believed that welding was a man’s job and that Michelle shouldn’t have been there, despite everybody else disagreeing and her having a reputation for being skilled.
Jealousy much? So, it was hardly surprising when she totally creamed the competition in a welding contest. No clue how one competitively welds, but whatever. The whole class gathered round to congratulate her – all, that is, except for John. Instead, he was annoyed. Not only had this girl been admitted to the school, but she’d out welded all the men!
With a grunt, he said "Someone put her in her place coz there ain't no kitchen here!" Michelle, refusing to be fazed, merely gestured at the tools and locked him dead in the eyes, offering him the chance to take her on himself. He refused of course, claiming he “didn’t want to embarrass her.” This shameful display of chauvinism caught the ire of the instructor, who tore into John in front of the whole class. Everybody stared daggers at the guy. Now petrified of losing his place at the school and thoroughly embarrassed, karma had clearly come around. But it was far from done.After lunch, the students all drove home. John’s drive was particularly long, around three hours, and one of the other students caught a ride with him. This poor, unfortunate soul was about to witness karma’s last laugh. Something in John’s lunch hadn’t agreed with him, and not long into the three-hour journey, the worst happened. He started to uncontrollably poop himself. Unable to stop the onslaught, his pants filled with karmic judgement as his passenger watched in horror, holding his nose firmly shut in a desperate attempt to save himself from the stench. Spoiler: he failed. For the next three hours, he was trapped in the whiffy vehicle, forced to inhale the poop particles spewing from the humiliated misogynist’s butt.
Unsurprisingly, John didn’t show up to class the next day, he was too busy crapping himself. But our unfortunate passenger certainly did, and made sure to tell everyone. Let’s just say Michelle had a really big grin on her face when she heard about it.
Gorilla Justice
Karma just loves to poop all over our parade. Reddit user Evening-station recounted another story of poopy pain. While visiting the San Diego Zoo, Evening rocked up to the gorilla enclosure to see a few teenagers laughing hysterically as they threw pebbles at the primates.
The senseless cruelty had them in stitches, clearly these losers were bad eggs. But gorillas are more than capable of defending themselves, as the hooligans were about to find out! The teens sent a few more volleys of pebbles towards the innocent animals, before one tossed the final handful. But his uproarious laughter ended abruptly when he noticed the gorilla picking something up and throwing it in his direction, poop. That’s right, the ape retaliated by hurling a huge handful of his own doo doo. The forbidden chocolate smacked into the fella’s face, the grin that once adorned it replaced with a look of abject horror. This is the way the world ends,
not with a bang, but with a stinker.
Facebook Marketplace Moron
On the topic of stinkers, I know some of you use Facebook marketplace to snag some bargains. A good idea in theory, but an easy way to get scammed! It’s more common than you think. YouTuber Ve Po captured an attempted bamboozle on his house’s security camera!
Ve had arranged to sell his Apple air pods to a Facebook marketplace user. The buyer pulled up in his Mercedes and hopped out of the vehicle, handing over a stack of bills in exchange for the earphones. But after taking the notes, Ve quickly realized they were fakes, the kind used in movies! Before he could do anything though, the fraudulent buyer had climbed back into his car and started to drive away.
YouTube Video by Unknown
Unfortunately, he did get away with the stolen air pods. But they were worth what, $180? Considering he ripped his own car door’s hinges off in the process, this moron could be looking at up to a $5,000 bill! And let’s face it, that is the ultimate form of karma, right? Criminals getting what they deserve.
Tram Groper's Fall
In May 2024, over in Stuttgart, Germany, one such villain was about to get his. A 22-year-old Tunisian man, was staring creepily at a woman riding the same tram as him. He slowly approached her, then tried to forcibly kiss and grope her!
The woman understandably fought back, and a scuffle began between the duo. Thankfully, given that this grade A genius was on public transport, some of the other passengers stepped in to yank him away from the poor woman. But as they were doing so, the tram stopped and the altercation spilled onto the platform. In all the raucous, the pervert was knocked over by the group and fell onto the tracks, where he was hit by a tram and ended up
losing his arm. Could you write a more fitting form of karma?
Uber Driver Exposes Affair
Some people just can’t keep their squeezing arms to themselves? In some cases, even if they’re married. Yes, cheaters are the worst. In a TikTok video, a Dallas uber driver named Roni told her tale of an encounter with infidelity.
She’d pulled up to a nice family home to pick up the father of the household. He said goodbye to his wife and kids, told them he loved them, then hopped in the car. The first thing he said to Roni? “I added a stop.” Roni acknowledged the addition and changed course, stopping where she was asked, and saw that a woman was waiting to get in. “Oh, I’m so glad you got away from your damn wife!” she said.
Then, she jumped in the car and locked lips with the dirty cheater. At this point, he’d also changed the drop off location, and it was obvious that wherever he and his floozy were going, they weren’t off to play Uno. As she drove, Roni was subjected to hearing the woman whine: “Why haven’t you left your wife yet? I’m tired of you putting me off!” And so on and so forth. The guy meanwhile gave his many non-committal excuses “I’ve got some things I’ve gotta take care of,” and the old classic “Let’s talk about this later.”At this point, Roni was seething. Thing is, this was her car. As an independent contractor, she had control over which rides she accepted, so she wouldn’t face any consequences if she cancelled on this creep and dropped them both off miles from their destination. But that didn’t seem like justice enough. While the degenerate duo were distracted in the backseat, Roni changed the drop off location herself and swung around, straight back in the direction of the family home. Only, the pair were so busy in the back that they didn’t notice until it was too late. When she pulled up, they were shocked and incensed, but Roni simply ordered them to get out. No ifs, no buts, this ride was not continuing.
Eventually they had no choice but to comply, and the cheating husband and his mistress were left standing outside of his family home as Roni sped off. I’m sure when his wife saw them in the yard there were absolute fireworks. Good riddance! If you were amazed at these stories of instant karma, you might want to read
part 2. Thanks for reading!
