Shayne: Most accurate
Keith: Most stereotypical
Olivia: Most memey
You said it perfectly
No ones gonna talk about how diverse the Karens are LOL
As someone with food service experience, I have to say, Keith actually embodied certain customers I've served before. 😅 The most relatable part was him being upset for the store not serving something he says he got there all the time. Happens more frequently than we can even begin to admit hahahaha
I go to Chipotle.
@@simpayshenaides Diverse 😂
Shayne nailed the voice, Keith nailed the attitude, and Olivia nailed the walk. 10/10 would kick them out of a restaurant
Olivia also nailed the belief system.
Loooooooool
Keith. Call the cops, Olivia. Eden is conspiring against you. Shayne don’t have this, shut it down, they’re not letting you live
Shayned nailed the hell out of that look/ eye stare he was sooo in character
Lol
Olivia saying “are you photographing me?!” When she sees a phone is such a quick thinking line 😂
every opportunity is … a photo opportunity
As someone who has worked foods, Shane's Karen was easily the most accurate, and terrifying to see from past experience. Keith's was definitely one that you'd see go viral on the internet, and Olivia's was one that you'd find on every Facebook thread.
Man!!!! I swear to all of my Jesus's this is true😂 if I ever saw all of them together at my job I'm so quitting👋🏾🏃🏾
I was a store manager at a small clothing store and I had several Karyns 🙃
It didn't help that is was in my early twenties, so they just saw me as a kid
@@ladyred1432 Just Quit?, I'd overdose right then and there
Shayne = the 'nice guy' version of a lady. Honestly get serial killer vibes. You know she has killed the younger mistresses of her husband.
Keith = that lady who called the cops and claimed the 1 dude hit her with his car when she was the one hitting his parked vehicle and crying 'he's hurting me!' when the guy never left his vehicle.
Olivia = the Karen that bullies you in high school and 10 years later with a "heyy girlie!" on Facebook to sell you make-up or leggings.
Olivia is like the young mom Karen who tries to be a social media influencer and is part of a pyramid scheme. Keith is like the aggressive 40 year old Karen who can’t stand her own children. Shayne is the passive aggressive older southern Karen who calls you things like “sweetie” and “hun” in the most un-comforting way
You explained it perfectly 😌👌
Shayn’s karen just had that “hey sweetie” vibe
That is so accurate
imaculit
Shayne is the exact opposite feeling i get when a black gramma calls me sweetie or hun
Shayne refusing to wear a mask and then saying he doesn't feel good is so fucking good.
Shane embodied that energy WAY too well. He didn’t play it up, he like nailed that. The look in his eyes...just the worst.
His was for sure the most accurate portrayal!
yet the worst scores, I'm sensing some Karen bias here.
To be fair this IS the guy behind Courtney Freaking Miller after all.
I honestly think Shane is a really talented actor. He’s stuck in a frat bro body so it doesn’t get taken seriously.
He’s definitely channeling the kids bop Karen lolol
The judges were SLEEPING on Karen Tammy. “Tummy?? Tummy??” Dead
Shayne is a hell of an actor geez, his passive agressive karen is so real and his emotions are on point
He used to act on the Disney Channel on Sonny with a Chance, and So Random, both skit type of shows, it’s no wonder he’s so good at this.
Honestly, Keith yelling at Sarah that his scene wasn't over was the most Karen thing in this video xD closely followed by Shayne's "live laugh love" monologue
Agreed
Keith was the Denzel Washington of “Karens” 😂😂😂
That literally was the funniest shit I’ve ever seen
Who’s Keith? it’s Karyn
@@gender5753 ikr it's Karen with a Y
Shayne had the insane look, eye contact and facial expressions classic Karen. Keith was so exceptional the epitome of modern Karen. Olivia was a younger Karen.
this win the comment section. I insist!! *Karens*
Ikr 🤣🤣🤣🤣
one of the most humble/wholesome things you’ll see, is 17:22 when Shane smiles, turns to his friend, whispers “you won”, while still smiling, and doesn’t break character. honestly an incredible mindset when he’s in every character. you can tell this is his passion and he’s chasing what he loves.
I didn't even notice that wow
wait that’s actually so wholesome what
Great catch! I also noticed that right before, Tommy is watching the envelope, then looks at Keith and Shayne saw it. So, if he wasn't told before who won and just read Tommy's non verbal tellling... How epic!!
this almost made me cry because it's so fucking wholesome and cute:((
my mother is a reformed Karen, shayne’s portrayal of “Karen” was scarily accurate.
@Lilymoon got rid of the haircut and started being nicer to people if they accidentally got our orders wrong
@@addi.8857 I love how the haircut having to go was a requirement... maybe karenism really is a state of mind 😭
@@aliciaang6158 Its like that one meme of fedoras causing spontaneous neck beards
@@aliciaang6158 Hmmm, that explains 'A woman's hair is her crown and glory' on another level.
@@coolgreenbug7551 If you shave the neckbeard or grow an actual good beard, as well as change your hat, you become a different person
shane was the most scairily accurate, Kieth made me feel like i was going to be arrested for walking too close to her, and olivia is the epitome of a karen’s daughter, Becky who wasn’t allowed any social media except facebook growing up
Shayne
Karen Tammie was robbed
Absolutely
I would pay for this to be an actual competition show
Lol yea
It is! Right here. Right now!
Yes I would watch it every week and laugh my head off.😂
@@rudeunicorns aaaaahhh! Hi Sarah I love you lmao 💚
I would pay to have this never be an actual show, imagine it inspiring more people to Karen
“My health condition is that I can’t deal with your shit” is now my life motto.
"I'm getting my soup because I'm not feeling well" right after refusing to wear a mask is also an underrated line.
I diagnose you with Karen
First step:Get a life
It reminded me of Jackie's, "This is how much of my time you've wasted" bit😂
YES
Shayne brings out Umbridge energy lol. The most terrifying Karen of all.
Ooooo he does
Olivia's Karen is the annoying Karen. Pretty much harmless, you just want them out of your store asap. Keith's Karen is the eye-roll Karen. You can't help just stare at the scene they're making and constantly eye-roll at them. Shayne's Karen is the Karen you want to just throw into a wood chipper-the absolute worst Karen.
MICROCHIPS!
So true.
I love how you're just the most accurate karen expert 😂
Karyn and Karen Heidi: Terrifying attitude
Karen Tammy: The death stare and psychopathic energy
Really that’s just Shayne in a wig. Using a character to Make us think he pretending when really it’s all real...
Lol
They honestly were not ready for how good shayne did this character, and it was hilarious watching their shock every time he progressively got more into character, lol
Honestly Shayne's passive aggressive Karen is the most terrifyingly accurate
But why did he remind me of Abby from Dance Moms
As an actual fast food worker, I would say so as well. The other two Karens are too over the top for me. Yeah, they exist in real life, but the more calm and confident Karens are more common.
@@goodnesswhy some how the calm ones are the scariest too
Omg yes
YES. I wanted Shayne to win!!
Karen Tammie is like a reincarnation of the "My kids can't hear me swear, they are listening to Kidz Bop" Karen lady
I actually have a “Karen” customer at work named Tammy😂 shes a regular where I work
@@emilykirkpatrick2024 TAMMY PLSSSS ITS SUCH A KAREN NAME
it’s the eyes for sure
Well Shayne did do that in try not to laugh so of course he'd be that Karen lol
@Mike M yes 😂 I absolutely loved when he did that
Shayne was the most accurate, Keith was the most terrifying, and Olivia was the most out of pocket which is definitely a Karen trait 😂
I love how all the Karens immediately turn on each other. They're like predators fighting over territory
There's only room for one type of Karen
I love how Shane's entire karen character is based on "they cant hear me. they are listening to kids bop"
IKR HAHAHAHHAH
lmao fr i love shayne
omg that lady is the best Karen
As soon as I saw the look in his eyes I got flashbacks to that video-
YOU NEED TO APOLOGIZE
YOU NEED TO APOLOGIZE
Keith’s Karyn during the Starbucks part was TOP TIER 😭🤣
the dramatic music when Karyn started crying took me out 😂
The voice cracking and crying was so real. They are loud and angry, but truly hurt as well in their entitlement. On point.
that's where he won the competition for real 🎉
just knowing this isnt scripted makes everything 10x better
Shayne is terrifying as Karen. Totally nailed that line between passive aggressive and just aggressive. I don’t know whether to be impressed and scared or just traumatized.
All 3
I know right? I have never been so unsettled and uncomfortable by someone’s gaze
damn, shane's protrayal of karen was scarily accurate. also keith arguing when his scene is over was outstanding karenism.
How is no one talking about how phenomenal Tommy and Courtney look???!!
They do be looking fine tho
*Tummy
@@Galiant2010 right sorry
Tommy looks very amazing with that eyeshadow
@@aaronzhu2038 yessss its so perfect
When Keith said "people will never understand how it feels to be a white women" I cried.🤣🤣
😭😭
15:42 DYING Shayne just flipping off the judges behind Keith’s back
It’s like Shane has the outfit, Keith has the attitude, and Olivia has the lines and phrases down- 😂😂😂😂
Combine them into one MegaZord and it'll be the end of times.
The chaos that wound be unleashed when all three come together is unimaginable.
Live Laugh Love
@@winstonbritto2789 I was going to point out your spelling, but you know what? Wound makes more sense. Like a spiritual wound, maybe.
👌
Karyn telling Sarah off KILLS me😂😂😂
i got scared honeslty and im not even there LMAO
Hahahahahhahaaaaaaa it was so unexpected
Yoo sarah replied to your comment😳
@@rudeunicorns How did you feel about it?
When Olivia was running around with her middle finger, I can just imagine her as a Karen on a jog being recorded, and acting like she’s the victim. Excellent performance from all three of them 😂😂!!!
When Tommy was pretending to be the manager. And everyone was yelling at him. I definitely saw some flashbacks in his eyes from when he used to work food service. 😂
Poor Tommy!!!
As someone who used to work at a Dunkin Donuts I was getting my own flash backs
I was having my own flashbacks with Keith’s... I had that exact experience on more than one occasion at Petco...
Also with how he was handling them...omg that’s real experience.
The “I’m a regular customer” hit me hard 😅
Shayne was the most accurate with hair and voice and body language.
Moving head from side to side with hand gestures while talking.
Just excellent.
The unhinged look when he stroked the purse “from Nordstrom.”
Keith was an absolute monster of a Karen bringing all the classic moves we expect from such a persona.
It scares me how good Keith looks as a Karen...
Ikr
Actually karYn
@@sheptolostsheep kyaren
Karyns aren’t actually that bad irl. My mom is a Karyn, but not a Karen.
Ngl without the wig Heidi Karen is adorable.
lets be real here, she rocks the outfit.
First to successfully meet the manager wins.
🤣
😭😭😭
Lmaooo 😂😭💀
15:42 shayne/karen flipping the judges of in the background was gold
This is legit the funniest Keith has ever been (and he's always hilarious). His tantrum at Sarah was just peak Karyn, and when he got the 9/10 and still said "Just let me call....the cops on you guys" I almost cried. Well won, Karyn!
Tommy looks like every Starbucks barista that’s ever said “howdy” and/or “ahoy” to me before 9am
That is....weirdly specific but also accurate af
I asked for a Grande and you gave me a Venti I wanna speak to your manager
@@Mr4real93 i-im sorry miss, i-i’ll get you that Grande
Shayne going “okay thanks bitch” is the best thing ever
"Do you have EARS?!!?" was the funniest thing, I laughed for too long
it’s even funnier when it’s unironic, my brother says it all the time 😭
Shayne was the most realistic. Olivia was the funniest. Keith was the most terrifying 😂
Watched this twice in a row it's so good. Love Keith's model walk at 4:10 and then the "STOP" when people starting laughing lmao
as a barista, shayne's scene gave me anxiety, way too accurate
😂😂😂
I used to work at a Jamba Juice, that shit was wild. Although y'all had it way worse. So yeah. All y'all reading who haven't worked in the food industry cut your servers some slack they're really doing the most and you don't know what shit they've had to put up with. Like this video is honestly what we went through.
It was way too accurate I got flashbacks
I work for McDonald's service... it gave me so much anxiety. Like... way too fucking accurate, holy balls.
Same
Karen Tammy Lorrain is basically Courtney Freakin' Miller's aunt. I guess the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.
o o f
LMAO
She could be her mother actually
headcannon
For me Keith brought classic Karen, Olivia brought modern Karen, but Shayne really stole the show with understated yet sinister Karen, which as a queer, ND suburban midwesterner, I really know how those Karens make me feel all too well.
“Everything in this was improvised. Nothing was scripted”... I literally went “oh no” haha
They couldn't let Tommy participate as a Karen, because he would just wipe the floor with everyone. Just facts.
Thats just so true
I desperately want to see that tbh
And Amanda’s Karen
True dat
loves to judge 😃
The three of them together can literally take over the world. This power puff Karen squad is too powerful😂 I love how perfectly they each compliment the others, they are all different but all somehow the perfect quintessential Karen. Truly art😢
“I see a microchip” 😂😂😂
Also, Keith as Karyn brought it. Heidi and Tammie felt like they were in on the joke with us, but Karyn was living her Karen fantasy.
Shaynes passive aggression and Keith’s attitude put together would be UNSTOPPABLE
Shayne’s mannerisms and speech patterns are terrifyingly accurate
Shayne: *Intense staring*
Keith: Cops
Olivia: Microchips
Imagine if one day, all of the Smosh crew just comes in as Karens as an April Fools prank on the cast
That would honestly be the best thing ever
We would die.
Be careful what you wish for.
Yasss do it plz record yourselves being obnoxious Karen's to the other staff
I don't know what can be more terrifying and hilarious at the same time.
shayne was so good in this. the amount of talent and accuracy
Shayne was actually terrifying, the head tilt “.....okkaayy”
The real star was Keith he really put that wig on and ran with it
17:49 you mean here?
Also, TOMMY THAT ORANGE EYESHADOW LOOKS FUCKING AMAZING
THANK U!!! I was looking for someone to talk about it!!!
He killed it
100% style icon 👌🏻
Yesss! I wanted to say that as well!
Looking bomb. 🔥
The first thing I noticed!!
A year later, I'd say Keith's "Karyn With a Y" is the most accurate Karen nowadays. Shayne's version was the one we definitely did have.
Yup. Nowadays it is the flip flop between outrageous aggression and whiny fragility. Olivia's younger Q-Troll Athleisure Pyramid Scheme Type is also very real.
Keith’s Karyn’s “WHAT.” Really got me lol
Now you have to do "America's Next Top Kyle" and then the winners of both these competitions have to go on a date together
Oh my God
yeeeeessssssss
“America’s Next Top Chad”
Big brain move
Yes
Shayne is an accurate Karen, Keith is the evolution of Karen(or a rarer version of the species) and Olivia is the millennial Karen.
I feel so bad, but Shayne is soo convincing in this outfit and wig like ultimate Karen energy. I would avoid him by a mile if I saw this "Karen" in public 😂
Shanes passive aggressive “thank you” is terrifying, and his eyes the whole time……😰😳😰
Psychopathic😰😰😰
Karen Tammy’s yes tummy Got overlooked
Tommy: Loves to judge
Courtney: Once made a scene at Disneyland
😂😂😂😂
Oh I need to see that, any link?
They did do a fake proposal once
It probably had to do with a pigeon.
@@ashmoon103 that’s what I thought too!
@@nathanwall6253I'm just now seeing this but nah it's probably her and Keith's fake proposal at Disneyland
I think Shayne's was the most accurate but all three of them presented the different types of Karens PERFECTLY
“Everything is improvised”
Oh this is going to be GOOD
I thought the exact same thing!
Same 😂
OKAY BUT TOMMY'S REASON FOR BEING ONE OF THE JUDGES: "Loves to Judge" I-
16:10 She’s 12, her wig’s backwards. This is real hair, this grew out of my f*cking head.
I’m dying. 🤣🤣🤣
The breaking of character throughout the video is everything. Shayne with the voice, Keith with the attitude and Olivia with the soccer mom walk, was everything.
Actually there are several types of entitled Karens:
- the passive-aggressive, condescending Karen: Shayne is channeling this Karen
- the lecturing, QAnon Karen: - Olivia is playing more of this Karen
- the aggressive, complaining Karen - yeah, Keith has pretty much nailed this one.
Shayne's Karen stare sends chills down my spine.
shayne looking good in that dress tho
Lmao 😂
True tho
He do be looking good tho
A Walmart Karen could never out do his dress
HE DOES IT LOOKS SO GOOD IT FITS HIM WELL
When Shayne put on those purple shades, I realized he was perfectly impersonating my grandmother. Had the realization she was a Karen when I visited her last and she said "The vaccines are killing people! Everyone who takes it dies within a few weeks!". Of course everyone else in my family of that generation has passed away, and the Karen stays
Correlation does not mean causation.
They have the power of satan and all the dark lords on their side
@@pranavkakkar7637 Well, her son is a doctor and he told her that so shut up
I mean, several people I know died soooo... a lot of people have died..
Just in case you're like me living for Karyn putting Sarah in her place in a loop: 11:11
Got her together 😂
15:42 Shane flipping Courtney off in the background is so funny😂
I noticed that too
I just noticed that😂😂
Olivia: Breaking character within the first two minutes
Me: This is going to be a classic
Olivia did so good this episode 😂
shayne's karen is just every dance mom merged together
I feel like Keith and Olivia were parodies, but Shayne was just way too close to reality. That's why he didn't win, they didn't want to encourage that type of behaviour.
Karen Heidi said, “I sell essential oils,” and I could immediately SMELL her
Shayne’s Karen saying he can’t wear a mask but then needs soup for a cold is too realistic. All of them channeled the Karen energy so well 😂 Shayne’s coffee reaction took me out 😂
WHEN SHANE JUST IMMEDIATELY SAID “Live Laugh Love” I STARTED DIEING!!! THIS IS AMAZING
The only line they missed is “the customer is always right”
and “I’m a single mother!”
Also the first amendment line
keith doing the karen acting for the starbucks scene is too real. that is Exactly the kind of person i deal with working in retail
“There’s microchips in the merch” literly had me dead😂😂😂
“I can’t wear a mask because I have a hEaLtH CoNdItIoN. Now excuse me, I need to grab my SOUP because I’m not FEELING WELL.”
What is insane is that a woman LITERALLY said that.
This is so unhinged i actually broke through my quiet laugh filter😂😂
I had no idea what to expect when watching this video but I was so pleasantly surprised. That was HILARIOUS! The fact that Keith kept going on and yelling at Sarah and Courtney was so funny, I appreciate the effort you all put in these videos. I loved Shayne's scary stare, Tommy's great acting as a manager, Olivia's phrases, Courtney's composure while getting yelled at and Keith's over the top acting, this was awesome.
Legends has it, that Karyn with a Y is still calling 911.
Live, Laugh, Love
As someone who worked food service and retail, Shayne's Karen was the most true to life.
TOMMY'S MAKEUP
DUDE IT'S SO GOOD
WTF WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS
It ISSSSSS yooooo
Holy crap yesss, I was looking for this comment!!
My immediate thoughts 🤩👏
Because I genuinely thought he had red-eye or something😅
I was looking for this comment
TOMMY’S EYESHADOW IS EVERYTHING 😍 And the way Keith plays a Karen feels like he has encountered them way too many times 😱
Shayne's Karensona gave me war flashbacks to working for someone exactly like that.
It was hell.
“okay which camera?” omfg i already can’t do this😭
Karen Tammie (Shayne): Reminds me of the “calm down” Karen.
Karyn (Keith): Reminds me of the Karen that called the police on the little girl selling lemonade.
Karen Heidi (Olivia): Reminds me of the Karen who complained about “being discriminated against” at the post office because she wasn’t wearing a mask.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
The “THERE ARE MICROCHIPS IN THE MERCH” at the end was so good lmao
All I have to say is... Keith being genuinely surprised about Karyn winning cured my depression
He was surprised about the photo too 😭😭
