to:

* [[https://notalwaysright.com/like-stealing-a-baby-from-a-trolley/119254/ This woman]], angry that she wasn't able to get a shopping cart, steals someone else's. But even crazier is the fact that first she had to remove ''the baby that was in the cart'' while the mother's back was turned and placed it on the floor while she made off with the cart. But what tops it is the fact that all she had to carry was ''one loaf of bread''.

* [[http://notalwaysright.com/the-manager-just-got-burned This pizza place manager]] has actually been deliberately overcooking customers' pizzas, because ''he'' apparently likes them that way and cannot possibly understand that other people might not like pizza that looks and tastes like charcoal, [[TheyJustDontGetIt even though he's apparently getting upwards of ten calls every day complaining about it]].

When the submitter points this out to her, she screams “EVERYONE HAS LEMON! IT’S BETTER!” and throws her tray at them. [[LaserGuidedKarma She's fired on the spot]].

Unfortunately, this time Room 101 has been given to someone else, and she is ''irate''. Never mind that all the rooms in the hotel are the same, or that the person in it has been placed in the room by disaster relief after ''his house burned down''. She winds up having to be arrested.

* A spectacularly insensitive example [[http://notalwaysright.com/how-to-seize-the-moment/ here.]] People having seizures actually do deserve precedence over someone who just needs a prescription.
* [[http://notalwaysright.com/dont-kick-up-a-fuss-if-your-heart-isnt-in-it/ And over people who just want to get off a plane]].
* And these two [[http://notalwaysright.com/pinheaded-part-2/ golf]] [[http://notalwaysright.com/always-right-even-when-shooting-down-a-helicopter/ course]] examples. Yes, sir, your golf game is more important than someone else's ''life.''
* [[https://notalwaysright.com/it-turns-out-you-can-be-too-safe/ This man]] is not as worried about calling 911 for his injured father-in-law as he is about ''suing'' the man who hit his father-in-law.
* A less grave, but no less applicable, edition [[http://notalwaysright.com/fair-trade-waylaid/ here]].
* What's more urgent business: [[http://notalwaysright.com/deal-with-the-burning-issue-first/ cat food or fire?]] Admittedly, the customer apparently thought he was making up the fire to get out of helping her.
* [[http://notalwaysright.com/a-serious-case-of-insensitivity-part-2/ This one]]. Apparently somebody ''dying right in front of them'' isn't an adequate justification for failing to serve someone else their wine right away.
* [[http://notalwaysright.com/attack-of-the-heartless/ Could you give that woman CPR somewhere else? I need my ink]].
* [[http://notalwaysright.com/of-breath-smoke-and-breast-strokes/ This one]], with some hypocritical humor too. Hard not to feel bad for the poor kids.

* [[http://notalwaysright.com/smooth-whipped-criminal/ This store]] was just robbed at gunpoint... but all that matters to this customer is getting a latte!
* A customer dents an employee's car with his car door while picking up drive-thru, and the employee drops his meal in shock. Said customer's reaction? [[http://notalwaysright.com/dingbats-in-the-drive-thru/ "You owe me 5 pounds for that meal!"]]
* [[http://notalwaysright.com/not-something-to-horse-around-about/ "My horse is more important than any accident!"]] Note the horse wasn't even injured, only spooked by fireworks.
* [[http://notalwaysright.com/your-911-is-not-a-2-for-1/ This woman]] believes that her Porsche gives her the right to take two parking spaces at once and be exempt from any penalties that normally incur.
* Taken to the extreme in [[http://notalwaysright.com/always-right-even-when-completely-car-razy/ this story]] -- the customer decides that because she can't find a parking space anywhere, it's perfectly acceptable to smash her SUV into a storefront and leave it there. When it's towed away later, she seems to think that it gives her the right to smash the store's interior because she thought they took it. To top it all off, when she's arrested for the property damage and shoplifting, that somehow means that customer service was terrible and she's entitled to a gift card!

He rushes off after being let in, ignoring the employees who wanted to help him. What does he get? Lube, chips, and wine. To top it all off, he calls the manager impatient for rushing back to help him, like he just can't understand why they might be so.

What does she do? Rip the sticker off and try to check it out anyway. She manages to kick up a fuss and get the audiobook nearly taken away due to it being "broken", but the original reserver manages to set the whole thing straight and get the audiobook checked out under her name. Despite all this, the sticker-ripper has the gall to ask for it anyway!

Unfortunately, the customer didn't get the message because she doesn't go outside much (so no billboards), doesn't read newspapers, doesn't listen to the radio, throws away every ad that comes with her monthly bill, doesn't use the Internet, and ignores all incoming text messages. Exasperated, the customer service associate asks ''how,'' exactly, were they supposed to tell her about it then. She replies they could have called her about it. Specifically called ''her'', out of the thousands of customers the company has.

It is not possibly blocking her view of the Needle given how high up her room is, and yet she insists that the hotel make the crane move anyway. She does not care that this would cost the construction company millions, either, as when told of all the costs moving the crane for a bit and then moving it back would incur, she simply states that "money is no object".
* [[http://notalwaysright.com/closed-down-compassion/ This woman]] who is upset over a grocery store being closed down after having been purchased by a major chain because she won't have a place downtown to shop.

* [[https://notalwaysright.com/not-quite-the-threat-of-a-lifetime/ This woman]] goes to a sports bar and expects the staff to change the channel on the largest TV screen to Lifetime. When the submitter refuses, stating policy, the woman demands to speak to a manager, who allows her to watch her program on a smaller TV. The woman refuses, demanding that the company make ''several patrons'' watching a college basketball game watch on the smaller screen. The manager refuses to do so, having already compromised with his original offer. The woman initially backs off and watches her program on the smaller screen, however she leaves no tip and tells the submitter that she will not be returning and will write a bad Yelp review about the establishment. The submitter notes why this is not a good idea.

[[LaserGuidedKarma At the end of the story, he loses his girlfriend too.]]
* [[https://notalwaysright.com/inconveniently-indiscriminate/ This pleasant individual]] at a movie theater raises a stink over not being able to have seats reserved for handicapped people (after claiming these seats online without paying any attention to whether they were handicapped seats or not) and screams that handicapped people shouldn't have their own seats solely because it's an inconvenience to ''her''.

She blames him for hogging the airport's wifi (which he wasn't using in the first place) and calls a manager to get him fired. The man isn't even an employee, and upon learning this information, the woman tries to ''force the manager'' to tell the man to give up the password. It doesn't go over well for the woman. To make matters worse, this whole confrontation could've been avoided if she realized the airport has ''free wifi''!

Her mother proceeds to go ballistic and says they need the oboe repaired in time for the next lesson (the following Wednesday). She said they'll be back to return the oboe and won't be renting from the store in the future. The submitter was about to tell the woman that they could ''loan'' her daughter an oboe while she waited for the repairs.
* Taken to the absolute extreme with [[https://notalwaysright.com/a-towering-sense-of-entitlement/190472/ this woman]] who is extremely irate about her missing television programs and doesn't care about the 'piddling' excuse that the librarian she's called is giving her. The 'piddling' excuse? ''It's the day after 9/11.'' More specifically, the television antenna that provided her program was mounted on the World Trade Center. Who cares that thousands of people have died, when are they going to rebuild the Towers and get her shows back?

It eventually reaches the point where the friend says that she hopes the friend gets mugged or hit by a car for daring to prioritize making sure their brother has a safe Halloween over not attending her party and later tries to manipulate the submitter into attending anyway, and it's implied that she insults the little brother and his friends the next morning at school while laying into the submitter for not attending the party.

* After moving to a new house, [[https://notalwaysright.com/we-wont-be-pooling-our-efforts/242905/ the submitter's neighbor]] expects the submitter to continue building a pool that was abandoned by the previous owner (which the submitter plans to fill it up since they're not interested of having a pool) since he wants the pool for his kids and doesn't want to build it himself.
* [[https://notalwaysright.com/that-lady-is-one-rotten-tomato/264294/ This neighbor]] throws a fit when she can no longer steal the submitter's tomatoes (they having been moved indoors), going so far as to claim that they're hers and ''demand their own key so they can collect them''.
* [[https://notalwaysright.com/these-boots-were-made-for-really-gross-popsicles/276474/ This backpacker]] puts her hiking boots in a freezer in order to kill the bacteria that make her feet "stink heaps". She can't understand why the people who store ''food'' in said freezer are disgusted by this, and gets irate at the suggestion she should simply store them outside. (And as pointed out in the comments, [[ArtisticLicenseBiology it wouldn't work anyway]] -- most of the bacteria would simply go dormant, and since the boots would be wet when thawed, she's just encouraging them to grow.) She then throws in a bit of casual racism for good measure.
* [[https://notalwaysright.com/this-is-why-no-one-likes-you/284477/ This guy]] joins a group of friends in their outings and get-togethers and promptly attempts to seize control of everything the group does, from what music they listen to to what games they play, and pushes them into doing activities that he is the only one interested in doing. The last straw happens when he shows up to the submitter's birthday party uninvited and tries to force the group to get drunk with him over poker games, to the point of turning off the TV in the middle of the group's intense ''VideoGame/MarioKart'' race to demand the group do so. At this point, the friend who originally invited him to join their group in the first place finally tells him to stop trying to make everything about him, resulting in the guy sitting around pouting for a while before quietly slinking out the door, never being heard from by the group again afterward.

* [[https://notalwaysright.com/you-are-a-car-i-am-a-bus-your-move/138856/ This man]] tries to cut off a bus and causes an enormous traffic pile-up as he tries to force the bus to move out of his way. He refuses to move and tries to attack everyone who comes to tell him to move, including ''the police'', all because he thought he was above the law and that the world had to move for him. [[LaserGuidedKarma His egomaniac behavior gets his driver's license revoked and lands him in jail and with several fines, including an assault charge made by a truck driver he hit.]]
* [[https://notalwaysright.com/the-worst-kind-of-entitled-jerk/260827/ This woman]] encounters a tow truck and several vehicles blocking her road, and flips her lid, demanding that they move immediately or she's calling the police, ignorant (and seemingly uncaring) of the fact that they ''are'' with the police and in fact are recovering a vehicle involved in a fatal accident. When the first squad officer to arrive arrests ''her'', she detonates, ultimately ending up with [[LaserGuidedKarma eighteen weekends in jail]] for obstruction, assault on a police officer, misuse of 911, interfering with an investigation, and tampering with evidence (for attempting to spit on the tow truck driver).
* [[https://notalwaysright.com/honestly-im-too-speechless-to-come-up-with-a-title-for-this-one-part-2/302092/ This woman]] supposedly got cut off by an ambulance responding to a call, and is absolutely irate not only that they did it but moreso that they're prioritizing tending to a man having a heart attack over appeasing her. She then proceeds to whip out pepper spray and not only sprays the two [=EMTs=] but also '''the heart attack victim''', screaming that they're too young to be having a heart attack, at which point bystanders have to step in and restrain her. Once the police arrive she then adds resisting arrest to her growing rap sheet, starting with the standard It's All About Me line: "Do you know who I am?!"
