Karen

Karen is a great friend. Although this name is associated with entitled baby boomers, there are other people who do this name justice. Karen is a girl that may seem quiet, but is so full of spirit when you get to know her. She is calm and attentive- always seeking to understand what she doesn't and to make sense of the world around her- usually helping the people around her make sense of their worlds with her keen observations. Unlike her baby boomer counterparts, she is level headed, compassionate, and caring when it concerns those close to her- she's always a shoulder to lean on, and doesn't ask for anything in return. Aside from her stability, she's cheeky too sometimes- making everyone laugh with her unpredictable wit. She's usually obsessed with the deeper meaning of some kind of book or TV series, and is seeking to convey deeper messages about herself in her own way.
Person 1; Did you hear what Karen said earlier, how does she even come up with stuff that funny?

Person 2; I don't even remember her speaking, I just remember her listening man.

Karen

Karen is someone who loves the little things in life. A person who can be both, to themselves or involved with their peers. A homebody but adventurous.

She can be fierce and direct, but very compassionate and understanding. She’s someone who is talented and a sore loser. She can be very delicate sometimes. Her biggest fear is not being what she feels she’s destined to be which ultimately makes her a very hard worker and goal oriented. She’s someone who is loved by all, and loved all.
Karen is very sweet, I love her.

Karen

It describes a kind of person who thinks they're entitled to do or say whatever they want, even if it is at the expense of others, and they think they should get away with it. They will throw tantrums when they have to follow the rules or when things don't go their way. They are willing to put their own happiness and comfort over other people's They can be of any race, religion, political ideology, nationality, sexual orientation, gender, age, or economic class.

They are typically racist, though not always. They're notorious for screaming at employees for extremely petty reasons. This often happens at grocery stores (especially those that require a face mask during a pandemic, God forbid!), restaurants, airports/airplanes, schools, the park, and so on.

If a business has a certain rule that is meant to keep customers and employees safe, they will claim that it's not fair to them and that it takes away their freedom. They go on about how much they love "freedom" but will get mad when someone else uses their freedom to do something that they personally don't like. They only want "freedom" for themselves so that they have the "right" to be a nuisance.
Scenario one:

Person 3: "This lady wants to cut in front of the line to vote."
Person 4: "Don't let that Karen cut in line."
Person 5: "HEY! GET IN THE BACK OF THE LINE, KAREN!"

Scenario two:

Karen: "Hey I noticed you're wearing a mask."
Person 6: "Yeah, so?"
Karen: "You know that you don't have to wear a mask here anymore, right? They stopped having mandates."
Person 6: "Yes, I knew about it."
Karen: "So, then why are you wearing a mask?"
Person 6: "Because I think it's a better choice, even if there are no mandates anymore."
Karen: "You have free will, you know. So take it off."
Person 6: "B-but I don't want to-"
Karen: "TAKE OFF YOUR MASK NOW. BE FREE, YOU PEASANT."
Person 6: "If you want me to be 'free', then you'd let me cover my face and leave me alone."
Karen: *Rips the mask off*
Person 6: "LEAVE ME ALONE KAREN!"
Karen: "I'm not a Karen, you are because you put safety over other people's freedom."
Person 6: "Who's freedom am I jeopardizing? I'm the one choosing if for myself. You're the one not letting me be free to wear a mask, after saying I could choose."
Karen: "Yeah, because I thought you'd CHOOSE to do things my way by not wearing a mask. Oh no, that was too honest-"
