There's A New 'Karen' And She's Starting Fights At Red Lobster

Just when you think the pandemic had caused a decrease in "Karens," the world has delivered another, and her name is Kathy Hill. While we're sure you had a very quiet Mother's Day, Ms. Hill did not, as she was filmed starting a brawl at a Red Lobster in York, Pennsylvania. In a video that went viral on Twitter, an unmasked Ms. Hill is heard yelling at a reduced Red Lobster staff that she has been waiting for three hours to pick up her food.

After trying to barge into the restaurant, a few of the workers try to prevent her from coming in which then caused Ms. Hill to strike one of the workers with her own hand. Once the video appeared on Twitter, it immediately sent Red Lobster to trend all morning, leading many to click and find out why. Many users were quick to share their disappointment and frustration at seeing someone behave so terribly, especially at a time where we're all forced to make sacrifices and practice patience. Ms. Hill choosing to react with violence was unsettling, and many were quick to point out how ridiculous she was, especially after she exclaimed that she was the one that was assaulted.

Red Lobster even wrote up an apology for the delays many faced on Mother's Day.

Although, many couldn't help but feel bad for the poor staff that had to deal with this situation.

People who don’t work in the restaurant business don’t understand what BUSY is. Or that with half the amount of staff you can not get food out that quick and insure quality.

Many joked that the situation could have gone way worse.

Whew Kathy is lucky there were people around because she was about to get dragged lol

Many were not here for Kathy's victim mentality.

no one says anything when she slaps her but she grabs her hair and they want to defend her like shes the victim?

Hitting a restaurant worker FIRST…and then saying you were assaulted after she grabs your hair in retaliation. KATHY KAREN HILL…we have you on tape, hon. pic.twitter.com/jey9xwgcvA

Some shared their admiration for the staff for banding together.

I like how all the employees are banded together on this. That first male employee that put his body in the middle of the nonsense. That's at team player right there. This is a cohesive work team and they should all get a big bonus.

A new movie poster was even released.

Several users were happy to provide some important facts.

I mean, you can make red lobster cheddar biscuits at home. They come in a box now.

Many couldn't believe the conditions essential workers were being put through during the pandemic.

I know that those people need to work, but these are unacceptable conditions. If all the service (essential) workers in the US want to go on strike after Covid is over, I 100% support them. Heck, I support them doing it now! Viva la revolución! Viva la mlle guillotine!

Kathy Hill assaulted an essential worker. When will lawmakers up grade these type of crimes to a felony. Food workers are putting their health at risk to provide for all of us and this is the thanks they get. #LockHerUp #Karen #kathyhill #lockdown #EssentialWorkers

Some were shocked that this many people cared about Red Lobster's food.

Red Lobster is definitely not worth going full Karen over.

Although, the Cheddar Bay Biscuits are pretty great.

They should have pelted her with Cheddar Bay Biscuits.

While Kathy might have felt like she was the victim, others were happy to give her another title.

Kathy is the worst of America.

Even if she was just starving.

A photo of the parking lot was even released.

Sorry but if you pull up to a Red Lobster that looks like this and you still decide to wait that shit is on you. pic.twitter.com/3iZRG6XpOx

Leading many to joke that there were other options out there to procure delicious seafood without the stress.

Lmao. I went to Publix got some fresh lobster tails and shrimp and cooked it all under an hour and called it a day. Red Lobster who? pic.twitter.com/HW1LkZJ5Lh

Although, perhaps we have been misled entirely?

The real story about the crazy woman at Red Lobster: she was actually several crabs and lobsters in a suit, distracting the guards so their comrades could make their escape. A Red Lobster truck was found abandoned at an airfield, where three helicopters are reported missing.
