Have you found stupid people that get in your way or don’t follow obvious rules mistakenly referring to you as “Karen” when your name is clearly Amy, Wendy or Judy? What’s with these idiots? It’s bad enough they tried to get in the 11 items or less line with 13 items, they can’t bother to read the carefully stitched lettering on your corporate sweatshirt. Seriously people!
Though many toss the name Karen around like it’s a pejorative akin to “conspiracy theorist” or “mass formation psychotic”, these mostly useless carbon footprints need to understand one thing – Goddess made you a boss lady whether they like it or not. So now, Karen (or whatever your real name is), it’s time to take your Miss Bossy-pants game to the next level!

This is hilarious. Keep writing, Johnny B.!
As long as this banana is ripe I’ll keep pealing it off for laughs!
I was going to write something caustic and witty in my per diem capacity as ambassador from the Friends of Retarded Racists, Incorporated. But somehow, it just don’t feel right.
Color me disappointment disabled.
No sliding scale!!! Awwwww. It has become so hatrd to make ends meet lately, and my Amex cards are maxed out. My Prius needs work, and I am still paying off the loan I took out to pay for my electric bike And I’ve got a vacation trip to San Francisco to save for. I suppose I could raid the savings account I have for installing solar next summer. Ah well…..
It will be available via Zoom for a fraction off the cost later in the year. Maybe take a Dave Ramsay course between now and then?
Again, the emphasis on nouns, labels. A denial of context, nuance, variegation.
Label someone :Nazi”, “fascist”, “transphobic”, “racist” etc., etc., while refusing any examination of facts.
That’s some Chad heavy commentary. Don’t let the Karen’s get you down sir!
Exactly this! How lucky we are to be on a board where nobody ever uses labels like ‘Marxist’, ‘communist’, ‘Zionist’, ”liberal’, ‘socialist’, etc. etc.
Are you being ironical?
At the risk of sounding like a Karen, you had me until r-word.
That’s kind of the point. Karen’s are a lockouts to rules not applying to them. Lots of kinds of Karen’s out there. This class is intended to reach them all.
Also, at the end of the day, it just means slow. It’s not aimed at a group of people with mental disabilities, of which the Founding Fathers clearly were not.
Ironical? Me? Never! I just say people mistyping words like ‘Lionist’, ‘socialite’, etc. Can hapen to the best of us!
See, I mistyped one myself! ‘say’ instead of ‘saw’!
I’d like classes on how be a Karen so I can be more likable to them. The state should pay for it, as part of their equity thinking and planning. After all we weren’t all born stupid and those that weren’t need help to become stupid.
