Entitled people have always plagued society since time immemorial. But it was only around the mid-2010s that they were labeled as “Karens” of the wild.
Fortunately, social media is pervasive enough to put their behavior in the spotlight and hold them accountable. Here are just some of the many documented examples across the internet, proving how badly detached from reality these poor souls are.

It's maddening the power and influence people like this think they have. Nope! We won't let you ruin someone's life just because you think you've been wronged in some way! 🙄
Ever wondered why, of all names, Karen was picked out to describe a dumb, insufferable person? The origin story is still up for debate, but according to a 2020 article by Cambridge University Press, one possible source traces back to the 2004 film Mean Girls.

One of the characters in the movie was Karen Smith (played by Amanda Seyfried), an oblivious, airheaded blonde who was a member of “The Plastics.” One of her notable scenes was her first introduction to the lead protagonist, Cady Heron (played by Lindsay Lohan), to whom she asked, “If you’re from Africa, why are you white?”

Customer Is Always Right!
According to the Cambridge article, the stereotypical “Karen” look of having an asymmetrical bob cut with blonde highlights may have grown in popularity thanks to the mid-2000s reality TV hit Jon and Kate Plus 8.
People began naming it the “Can I speak to your manager?” haircut, while some supposedly referred to the show’s co-star Kate Gosselin as “Karen Zero.”

Angry That You Can't Be Racist
From a psychological perspective, licensed therapist Sara Ouimette provided some insights into the Karen archetype. As she explained, it is a representation of traits that society finds uncomfortable: rage, superiority, fragility, control, and helplessness masquerading as dominance.

“When women—particularly white, middle-class women—have been conditioned to find safety in compliance and perfectionism, the expression of frustration or unmet needs may become distorted,” Ouimette wrote. “Without an inner sense of authority, some externalize power by controlling others.”

Why Do I Feel Like This Was Made By Karens For Karens?
Ouimette says it is possible to “dismantle” the Karen archetype. However, it takes a ton of work, which includes “honest, uncomfortable reflections.”
“For white women especially, this means confronting internalized superiority, recognizing how fragility can be a form of violence, and learning how to stay grounded in the face of discomfort,” she noted.

I hate people like this. They assume that anyone who doesn't want to celebrate or decorate is automatically a 'grinch', when they could have a good reason for not decorating, such as health issues, or simply doesn't feel like celebrating. Also, I highly doubt that not decorating is going to disappoint anyone, besides someone like this

Karen On Fb
I rarely comment on random Facebook pages but I did tonight.. and got reminded of why I don’t.
My family and I live in KY during the summer and OH the rest of the year. There’s a satirical page from the town in KY we live in called the “[town name] Insider” that is just like the Onion but uses locations around our town. The recent article was about a girl from the local high school getting arrested for chewing gum loudly in class. Even at the bottom of the article it states the story is satire. But you know how some people like to start bitching before they get all the facts. I wanted to reply to the Karen and inform her the article was satire mainly because I didn’t want a dumb rumor to start about our town.
Photo attached of the pleasant interaction I (black) had with Karen (blue). No comments were deleted, she is just cray.

Yeah, I'm not sure this applies. Sounds like the old place was a madhouse, and spilled over onto the streets, regularly. I'm not going to blame this person for trying to keep it from happening again.
