Most of the time, when you encounter a Karen at a fast food spot, they’re just itching to see the manager. Maybe they yell a bit or insult the staff, but it usually doesn’t escalate beyond that. However, in this shocking incident in New Jersey, two women were recorded completely losing control and began throwing food and drinks through the drive-thru window at a Wendy’s. It’s unclear what sparked the incident, as the original poster, TikToker julietagarcia2086, has since deleted the video and refused to provide further details. Based on one of the women demanding her money back, she may have been dissatisfied with the food she received. Still, it remains unclear what was so wrong with the order that she felt it was acceptable to kick and strike the drive-thru window with her feet.
The New Jersey Karens then began grabbing the closest items they could reach through the Wendy’s drive-thru window. There were splashes of sauces all over the window. On the floor, there were countless straws, cups, and papers thrown everywhere. As if they hadn’t caused enough chaos, the pair of New Jersey Karens tried to target the nearby soft drink dispenser, attempting to pull the container off the counter and possibly throw it to the ground. Thankfully, it was sturdy enough to resist their force.
The Wendy’s employees understandably kept their distance and refused to give back the women’s money. One Wendy’s employee even went as far as throwing a bucket of water at the New Jersey Karens in retaliation. Seeing that they were simply destroying Wendy’s without getting anything in return, the group eventually left the fast food chain, though not before ending up with their faces and hair covered in grease and sauces due to their rampage.
The internet was flabbergasted and shocked at the incident at this New Jersey Wendy’s location. Many users remarked on how out of control the women were acting in the video. “I don’t understand how people with ZERO control over their emotions make it that far in life. emotional maturity of a potato,” one user said.
Some users expected that Wendy’s would likely retaliate with a lawsuit, while others argued that the women would simply get banned. “Imagine catching charges over some fries smh,” one commenter wrote.
Others pointed out that one of the New Jersey Karens was even smiling while throwing food and drinks, as if she were enjoying the chaos she was causing. “They probably think it’s a funny story to tell at parties. People like this will always be trashy,” one Redditor remarked.
