  • Last year set a record for the most times white women have ever asked to speak to a manager. We’re living through a full blown Karendemic. But what is a Karen really? We wanted to get a definitive answer on the subject, so we went out on the street and asked kids to tell us what they know about Karens.

      But at least you opened your eyes and decided not to continue down that path- SO MANY people don’t make an effort- pleased to hear that you acknowledged your previous behavior and are correcting yourself- the majority DO NOT.
      And publicly making this admission makes me think you’re NOT a Karen.

    Are we not embarrassed to have to explain to our kids that we’re making fun of middle aged women? And they’re supposed to look up to us?

      Maybe that kid is super-precocious, and he's familiar with the Karen, "an ethnolinguistic group of Sino-Tibetan language-speaking peoples."

    There’s nothing wrong with asking for the manager if something’s actually wrong and if you’re speaking calmly and respectfully. Being aggressive and disrespectful is the thing that’s wrong.

    Rorshach would be so jealous of that outfit, it would have been perfect for him and added some colour to his black & white look.
