Zone1 Did They Go Too Far With This Karen?

[Devils_Advocate]

The Pizza Hut person should have never come out from behind the counter. Just let the person leave.

Yep, she should have just went in the back and called the police but she not only came from behind the door but went outside and put her hands on the other woman…

The employee could have banned the woman from the store for good but now that woman might own that franchise when it is done with…

It's possible to go too far with a Karen?


I had never considered the possibility.

 

[Mr Natural]

What she should have done was tell the woman if she wanted a real pizza, go down the street to Ginzos’ and get yourself a real pizza.

Or skip the pizza altogether.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

they should have been

eh? Only one person shoved her?

 

[monkrules]

If the manager really wanted to get even with that Karen, she should have forced her to eat that stinking pizza.



I kid... I kid...

Why? Love it or hate it sounds like a good idea to me.

No they is plural.
They can never refer to a single person.

Wrong! If I am talking about my friend liking ice cream I can say that they like ice cream.

When you don't know who it is. Not when you know who it is.
Virtue Signaling Gator knows that is a woman, but said "they" - and made me think someone else was involved.
That is why the word is not used that way

Okay, let's bring this to a different topic since we're going off of it,.. but neither of us are wrong in how we use they though. The English language is tricky, but they can be either singular or plural.

Maybe she hit the counter person with a flying pizza box.

I saw Judge Joe Brown have a plaintiff arrested for assault when they threw a paper water cup at the defendant.

That’s pretty stupid

Enough of the English lessons already!

Back to the topic..........................

Now, while the woman who ordered the pizza was wrong to shove it across the counter at the pizza person, hey..........it was just a pizza, and won't take more than 2 min to clean up. Yeah, it's a pain she was such an ass, but if you work in a customer type business, you gotta accept the fact that some idiot will come into your establishment and be an ass. It happens.

The pizza employee going out to the parking lot and shoving her? That was wrong, and the employee should be fired at a minimum, brought up on charges if there is justice. She's lucky the customer who was shoved didn't want to call the police and wait for them, because I'm pretty sure that place has cameras to record incidents, and if the police had seen tapes of what happened (even if just the video the other person was taking), the employee would have been arrested for assault, and if the customer had decided to sue, they would have been able to get some fat bank from the franchise owner.

Believe it or not, in this case, I'm on the Karen's side.

I guess in flyover country it’s considered good food.

Is this the "our NYC pizza" greasy crap is the best blah blah blah.? Yes flyover country has better food than the coasts.

What, precisely, is "pretty stupid"?

No, the word "they" is always plural. There are a lot of illiterates around who can't manage English, however.

Yep, there are a lot of illiterates around who can't manage English. Thank you for showing us an example of one of them.

Wow. I'll bet you're going to sleep better tonight, having patted yourself on the back all day for that little bit of wit and insight.

Whut da??

Guys, you're getting off topic again and this is getting really silly.

 

[Road Runner]

Here, argue to your heart's content.

The "They" Argument

I'm currently having a debate with iamwhatiseem in another thread, and so that we wouldn't derail the thread,.. isn't the word "they" both a singular and plural usage? Example: 1. They went to the store. OR 1. He went to the store. Yes it's true that in the first example you don't...
