My name is Karen, and I'm sick of this shit!

Hi, I'm Karel Čapek. I wrote War with the Newts (1936) and invented the word robot in 1920. I wasn't handsome but I had a sensuous mouth.

OP Karen wants to speak to Muriel now!

What happened to Becky?? I hate every single fucking Heather I have ever known in my life also.

Caitlyn

Susan is a pretty name, though.

Debbies are right cunts, though.

Karen, you can be Karen without being "a" Karen.

But since you wrote to complain, apparently you ARE a Karen, Karen.

And a cunt.

Which goes without saying.

Any replacement name needs to roll off the tongue, have a bit of a bitchy edge to it, and be a name that isn't common for younger women today. Suggestions: Debra? Sandra? Patricia?

Sorry, but Karen is perfect. Patricia and Sandra are not common enough. Karen is common enough that it perpetually offends women named Karen and those who know them. And that keeps people bitching about these women who are wreaking havoc on all Karens everywhere by being their awful selves.

How about Tanya, but spell it 'Townyya,' like they do at the trailer park?

K. C. KA KA. KA REN KA-REN! CUNT. See why it works?

Beckie is good for a fat young one.

That hard syllable K at the beginning is part of its charm.

Y’all goin to hell for dragging this woman. She asked nicely.

Karen, honey, your request is denied because unfortunately it is too perfect a descriptor to describe general bitchassery, but thank you for asking politely and acting with decency. Keep it up - at least people will describe you as Karen, but not THAT type of Karen. Being an exception to the rule sucks, been there plenty of times, but once you accept it - it gets better.

We’ll see you there, Love.

Save me a stool.

I'm here for you, Karen.

My mother is a Susan. And, yes, she is a fucking bitch.

I vote for Meryl.

We need a name for gay males who bitch about Karens and "fraus" all the time.

Gary

I've never met a "Leslie" who wasn't a complete twat.

I like the one who suggested Susan. And, that's not my name.

I like the one who suggested Becky.

Caren

Carol could be the gay Karen. Remember when boys were named Carol?

What about Sharon ?

Karen has taken hold. It’s too late.

You can’t put the genie back in the bottle.

I heartily agree about the '50s and '60s Debbies.

Flat out, Grade A, top drawer, first order CUNTS -- the lot of them!

All the Kirsty's and Kristy's I've ever known were cunts. Agree with poster upthread, it's that hard K is a significant component.

Those of us her long enough to know the Cheryl origin story know that:

1) She was a real person

2) She was the Kareniest Karen to ever Karen. Always asking for the “editor” (?) to remove posts and block people.

And

3) Her pussy stank

Karen is perfect, but Tanya would be good too. The bitchiest women I've ever met though are Shelleys. I've never met one that it isn't a real bitch.

I have a cousin named Karen, and she's anything but a "Karen." She takes the Karen thing in good humor most of the time, but she has two teens who have apparently discovered the meaning of Karen and every once in a while, they'll give her an eyeroll accompanied with a "sure, Karen," (with a heavy emphasis on the K).

Sorry, none of the names suggested here even remotely hit the ear the way that Karen does.

Sorry, OP. Report this thread to Muriel and maybe you can get a 20% off coupon on your yearly subscription.

Carol Ann

Time to change your name, ladies. Karen is here to stay. Might I suggest Kiki? There aren’t too many Kikis out there who are cunts...except maybe Dunst.

Courtney’s are horrible and it’s an ugly name. Maybe someday when all the Karen’s pass into the next realm, Courtney can step in. It’s more a gen x name, whereas Karen is boomer. Debbie is boomer, too. I don’t know anyone under fifty named Debbie.

Tammy

Sharons are typically good people r24

Eat a dick, Karen

Ya gotta love Dorcas!

My neighbor is a KARIN (with an 'i') and she's the Karenest Karen EVER.

Frau is better, and I hope DLers continue using the term and not switch to the millennials' Karen craze.

[quote]Cheryl was the Kareniest Karen to ever Karen

Of course Cheryl was the kareniest Karen to ever karen since her first name is Karen. Not only does her pussy stink but she's one of the most plastic face that I ever had to encounter in my life.

Should I call the manager, Karen?

Just because of this, I'm changing my name to Karen. These memes are so stupid and corny.

How about Dorothy ? Every Dorothy I know is a fucking cunt.

I agree OP.

I nominate Roxane.

How about Barb? That name makes me think of fat, bitchy office fraus.

I'm also named Karen and I've had I up to here. It is mean and diserespectful. Their should be a law against using "Karen" this way on the internet. I have called my senater's office and both of my house of representatives to get them to make one.

Barb is definitely a Frau name!

Tiffany is frauy as well

I understand why so many Karens are upset. I'd hate my name to be muddied like that. I know of 3 fantastic, wonderful women named Karen.

But it's happened - not sure how to go back.

I work with a Debra who is a world class cunt, as well as being absolutely frautastic (she’s of the “Live, Laugh, Love” variety), but the BIGGEST, most venal cunt to pollute my life was a Susan.

I prefer DEE DEE

Diane's are always cunts.

[QUOTE] Remember when boys were named Carol?

fuck yes, I couldn’t stand that shit.

I have a cousin and 3 friends all named Karen (spelled Karin, Karen, Karyn) and they are all sweet. I used to think it should be Becky, as for years without exception, every Becky I met was a horrible person, but over the last several years I've met a few who aren't. Melissa's and Mary-Ellen's lately are proving to be problematic. I guess we should take a pole - any paid DLer care to set it up?

Joanne - A bitch on wheels, with the “managers number on speed dial.”

[quote]How about Barb? That name makes me think of fat, bitchy office fraus.

Screw you!

THIS is Karen, the OP.

[quote]My name is Karen, and I'm sick of this shit!

What name do you suggest, Mitzi?

There's a Debbie Downer and a Helpful Hannah. Otherwise either would've been good alternatives to Karen. Becky too.

59 replies and no one has said Cheryl???

I nominate Kim

Joanne is a good Karen-like name. It sounds fat, midwestern, Frauey, conservative, and a can of Cool-Whip, the Pioneer Woman, and Jesus.

[quote] I'm also named Karen and I've had I up to here. Their should be a law against using "Karen" this way on the internet. I have called my senater's office and both of my house of representatives to get them to make one.

This whole thing is just one giant “oh dear,” Karen.

Meaghan would work

R2 It was in fact his brother Josef, that came up with the word robot, but Karel introduced it to the world in his novel.

As I mentioned on another thread, the millennial cunt version is the “Jodi.”

“The Jodi” is even better because it implies a profound trashiness and psycho quality you don’t get with “Karen.”

(Thanks, Jodi Arias!)

And Jodis are much more likely to be stay at home moms with 4 kids.

In short, a whiny, lazy, psycho millennial bitch is a “Jodi.”

r52=Mary Wilson

[quote] And Jodis are much more likely to be stay at home moms with 4 kids.

By four different fathers, all of whom have done time.

Jodie is not common enough. The reason Karen works is because it's so ubiquitous for white women from the boomer generation and it's a bland, crappy name. Everyone knows a Karen.

Stop abusing my name or I'll shoot!

Karen is a Nordic name which makes its wholly inappropriate for this new meme. But most Americans are ignorant of the rest of the world so carry on with the stupidity.

Just think...in 20 years, the “Can I speak to a manager” cunts will all be named Madysin.

And the managers will all be Jaydens and Jacxxsons.

I know 7-8 totally skanky, dumb cunts named “Jodi.” It is VERY common.

R63, R46 here. Your post made me want to fess up. I was trying to be funny. To be honest, the first encounter I ever had with a "Karen" in my life was in Jr. High School. Her name was "Karen." So I've had it in for Karens ever since. So I love the idea of Karens calling their "senaters" to complain about people.

Luv ya, r74.

It’s a shame there’s no way to indicate tone of voice. I’ve had some great things that, if said out loud in a certain way would be hilarious, but after typing it out you realize people can’t tell what you mean and there’s no way to edit it so they will without spoiling it.
