The man can be heard yelling at his wife and gesturing to the Black couple, saying, You dont know him, you dont know her.
Fuck you. Get in the car, the man says directly in his wifes face. Its unclear what sparked the interaction between the two couples.
The Black woman, who appears to be recording the footage, cackles and yells, Erin get your stupid ass in the car. Get in the car, Erin.
The Karen, aptly identified as Erin, says something unintelligible, prompting her husband to repeat, You do not know him. You do not know her. You dont know anybody around here. You are not special. Get your stupid ass in the car.
Erin snapped back saying the Black man was a fucking crack dealer. Her husband asked why she thought thatbecause the man was driving a fucking Buick?

Sounds like it might be uncool but it's pretty hilarious in the context.
I really don't think Erin OR Mr. Erin should be driving, but we'll leave that aside for the moment.

Someone should print that on t-shirts.
Perhaps "Erin, get your stupid ass in the car" as well

Either that or he's already filed and that's why she's in town.

I still suspect the "Karen" phenomenon is one of the outcomes of most women never needing to worry about a physical backlash from their big mouths. A lot of men learn at an early age that rude and confrontational comments might cause their faces to get smashed.

It should read, "Man goes off on his wife..."
Then again, it's early and haven't had coffee yet.

(3,011 posts)"You're not special" sounds like a very old grievance between young children, not a married couple, IMHO.

(16,165 posts)telling the person you're with, "f... you, you're not special". I don't think even dr phil could save your relationship.

"Because he's driving a fucking Buick? What, did you cross check it?!"
"You're a drug dealer, bae!"
Seems more like siblings than a couple. Or the worst Tinder date ever.
Cute guy, though.
