I've never met one. I've seen plenty of rage inducing posts online though. I'm sure somewhere, someone like this exists, but it's probably rare enough most of us would never encounter someone so socially maladjusted in our entire lifetime
Which isn't to say entitled people don't exist - they do - more so that this level of oblivious entitlement is unlikely to continue existing into adulthood. Eventually it comes in conflict with reality and they learn acting like that only ends in mockery
My wife was an au pair, she's still in a few nanny/au pair Facebook groups and sees posts with asinine requirements all the time.
Once she saw a women post a nanny position for 4 kids with the same "bring your own snacks for my children" requirement and they were only paying $18/hr. Most nanny positions around here are paying $25ish depending on the hours and that's for no more than 2 kids.
That lady got flamed in the comments and left the group.
I just blocked 3 different ppl for posting blurry old low effort reposts, is this new? I haven't really actively browsed lemmy in a month or two, didn't seem this bad before

My wife spent a bit of time as a nanny. It doesn't sound like you have.

The kid next door once proudly told us "dad said I don't have to learn" so they take different flavors

Truthiness!
It feels right, because I find young wealthy parents to be annoying.
Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca · 18 pts · 241d
It only works because we've seen people actually like this. If you couldn't relate the joke falls flat.
Valmond@lemmy.world · 23 pts · 241d
Yeah the "make my child intelectually challenged" was the ticket. Kind of funny though.
ThatGuy46475@lemmy.world · 23 pts · 241d
Satire
axexrx@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 240d
Satire on public schooling, no?
panda_abyss@lemmy.ca · 63 pts · 241d
This looks like a joke and/or bait.
finnie@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 240d
Yeah they lost me at, "so my child will be intellectually challenged" that's hilarious but that's definitely a bit

Obviously taking the piss.

This repost wasn't believable the first 7 times either.

This user spams a lot, I kinda prefer empty lemmy to the same mfs spamming low effort facebook posts
TrickDacy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 241d
I'm with you. They post just enough interesting things that I haven't blocked them yet.

(They had at least a post an hour)

I mean, I've blocked a lot of people and communities and I still wouldn't call what you describe super out of character some days.

my niece is a career nanny and she's told me so stories but this person is totally unhinged

If it's their favorite genre surely there are other hits besides this decade old rage bait.
