Does anyone else think the whole “Karen” thing needs to stop?

[Kingofkings1992]

This terminology is extremely disrespectful to women who have the name Karen. Why do we need a universal name for a woman that is deemed unpleasant and controlling?

Yes

No

[msc545]

Yes, I think enough is enough with us. There is no reason to not find a better name for such women.

[Kingofkings1992]

Why can’t we just say bitch? Why does it have to be an actual name?

[msc545]

I agree completely!

[BCA6010]

Not just "Karen" but all of the names that get used in this way, good or bad.

[Anonymous]

Among other name-calling, yes, it needs to stop. Nothing like coming on GAG or going on social media and reading posts where adults are throwing out names like middle schoolers. But I guess freedom of speech includes giving one the freedom to make a dolt out of oneself. I'd like to see civil discourse come back into style, but I won't hold my breath.

[HeartFullOfGlue]

I think the whole "Karen" thing got old when people started calling any old woman complaining Karens. Regardless of how valid it was.

[NaultD]

Just don't name kids Karen anymore. Any Karens today go by middle name, nicknames, whatever they want to name themselves. Legally or not it dosen't really matter.

[NaultD]

It's like humanizing Adolf as a first name again. The effort isn't worth the result.

[cunnilinguist]

with that logic Silent Bob should be just Silent Person

[Kingofkings1992]

That makes zero sense, and doesn’t pertain at all to my point. Did someone drop you on your head?

[cunnilinguist]

If they did, would that give you some kind of consolation? It is you that doesn't get it after all (perhaps someone else got dropped on the head, it would seem), and that would not change no matter what I say, now would it? NEXT

I have a cousin named Karen and she is the opposite of a Karen. I sort of felt bad for her. We should just stick with Brandon.

[Dargil]

I kind a like free speech. I do not have to be told how or what to think, Kevin.

[Kingofkings1992]

Obviously you do because you’re just following the crowd. Saying that terminology is stupid, pointless, and disrespectful is not attacking free speech. Those are two separate things.

[Thot_Stomper]

We don't have free speech and unfiltered water tastes like shit

[Dargil]

All language is terminology. When I say Motorcycle, the listener either knows what it is or can dissect the two Latin descriptors and predict what it is. Karen, derived originally from the nagging Harridan Karen Hill in Goodfellas is a convenient descriptor. So your response, as Reaganus Maximus once said, "You know a lot, but so much of what you know is wrong."

[Kingofkings1992]

@Dargil just say bitch that way we don’t insult undeserving people.

[Dargil]

@Thot_Stomper No, unfortunately, we don't. But Crystal Geyser spring water tastes good, particularly at the source near me. Restoration of free speech will likely take gunfire and bloodshed. If the next election is stolen, it will happen.

I'm sorry I can only work with evidence not fantasy. Enjoy your mypillow

[Anonymous]

Nah. In this touchy Feely world we live in now if you've earned the term "Karen" you've most likely more than earned it. People in general are uber tolerant anymore.

[Anonymous]

It was supposed to be a meme. But people took it way farther than it was meant to be.

Karen was supposed to represent the insufferable customer types. Now it got political and now it includes racism because of course it does.

[Thot_Stomper]

Because we kept getting mad when they called us bitches. In case you didn't know a Karen is simply just a bitch. And how do you think Katrina's feel?

[Anonymous]

It'll eventually die down just like Bye Felicia. Nobody says that anymore.

[najekim]

We already have a name. . . bitch.

Or if really bad. . . royal bitch.

[TiaNour]

I never really cared about the whole Karen trend.

[provokeesmokee]

Damn, Kevin, did you marry a Karen?

[BootsLover94]

Lol you support Karens

[Spongebobssocks]

I saw a Karen on here they're so funny😂

[Jackblue]

Yes it has gone way too far.

[Jackblue]

If anyone on here wants to call me Karen or Kevin for saying that, then in my opinion having lost an honest argument you are resorting to insults.

[BLP11520]

I deal with KARENS everyday
