Discussion Have you ever met a karen irl?

And under what circumstances? I don't think I have as I stay at home most of the time but I would love to hear others' experiences

 

well imstead of karen in my country we have emak emak which is more dangerous no helmet in motorcycle turn left but using right turning lamp i hope u understand what i mean

 

lmao no traffic police to control them?

 

when they need money they do control or ask money rather than go to court i say
in city yes not so common thought

 

I went to the pet store and a lady walked in without a mask. The sign outside said that everyone is required to wear a mask unless you have a medical condition. So she went in and started arguing with the staff after they asked her to leave. She wanted to talk to the manager and complained of false advertising. They have an option to call in your order or order online band pickup in store (you get a discount if you do that I found out from listening..... I called in my order from the store and waited half an hour and saved 20). She left very upset and promised not to return.

 

try to search emak emak in YouTube and you know how brutal they are

 

Good for them pet store peeps

 

I had met them during my high school years, they blame the teachers because their sons failed, saying "it's your fault that my son has failed, you don't have the capability of teaching them" and it got so big that local media got into it but then it stopped suddenly when the video got viral, and the mom's now suing for psychological damages.

 

Hahaha, and when they make a one way road into a two way one, or when they cut the road and almost made a traffic accident but scold the victims instead *sigh

 

Ahh, there's this couple I saw in McDonalds with two children and one early teens. Their order is three trays worth and had a staff carry them.

With the husband attending the kids, the woman appeared impatient so I said in a low voice (roughly translated), "If you're that hungry, go help carry your own food."

Apparently she heard cause she looked my way, but she still didn't carry the food.

 

Yes, Ai-chan's ex-classmate was called Karen Wu. We called her 'currrent' as in in electric current.

 

Many many times. Shopping, driving, camping, renovating, moving in, etc and i think they multiplied whilst their age ranges get younger.

If anyone wonder whether it's all just my wife i described as karens then no because i don't have a wife yet.

 

Women named Karen? Sure. The kind of Karen you see/hear in the news? Not that I recall.

 

My aunt's a bit of a Karen. I remember when we got McDonald's once when she was over and there was some stuff wrong with the order so she drove all the way back to complain. She took my chips because they were "cold" (I was just enjoying them, I had to wait like 20 minutes to get more chips).

 

A Karen? Come to England. I guarantee you’ll see one or more every time you go to town~

 

say who is karen?

do you mean asshole or dickhead or annoying prick?

 

My grandmother is a Karen.

 

As someone who works in food service industry, I unfortunately have. A LOT. They usually ask for free food, and scream when we say that their request is unreasonable. During the years I just learned to let forget whatever they say right away after they leave.

I say male karen counterparts (kevins?idk) are more common in my workplace and super aggressive. I lose my sanity everytime they speak.

 

Is there a name for the male equivalent? I’m surprised I haven’t heard people mentioning them yet~
