A dangerous subspecies to humans, known only for its toxicity. Karens come in many shapes and sizes, but they are usually recognizable by their loudmouth behavior.
Other identifying characteristics include Atrocious Haircuts, Verbal desires to see the Manager, and their usually Easy To Anger behavior.
Karens also tend to travel in packs of various numbers. Regardless if there's 2 or 10, your best option is to avoid them at all costs. Even just one must be avoided, even if you ARE the Manager. They may also be part of much larger packs, known as the Home Owners Association (HOA), Human Resources (HR), or any other organization that may be viewed as "Superior" to average humans.
Their natural habitat varies, although they are commonly found in the suburbs, hiding amongst regular human lifeforms. Karens will always be attracted to the nearest retail employee, regardless of the employee's age, and will then proceed to have a full-blown meltdown. Karens typically believe that video games are unnecessary, essential oils are healthcare, their body their choice, and that you are below them.
Despite this, some Karens have been observed defending the exact same beliefs and practices that other Karens are against. These Karens can be trusted.

Get the Karenmug. A dead meme that has never been funny and is just used to make women feel bad about themselves, controlled, and self-conscious about having an opinion on anything. It's also depressing for girls named Karen who've had to change their names or move schools because of sick people who think using this term is ok.
The meme fell out of favor quickly when people realized their own moms were called Karens for no reason. When women were ruthlessly bullied on the internet because some jerk who wants clout filmed her and tried to portray her in a bad light when she was just trying to live her life. The realization that society hates middle-aged women for existing, women are judged harsher, and this rabid obsessive bullying has no regard for women's humanity from people who spend too much time online and hate women.
Pakistani-American writer, public speaker, and activist Sarah Haider calls the term a "term of abuse" and explains it is used in place of calling women misogynistic slurs and to get away with socially acceptable misogyny.
"The Karen archetype is just the most recent, millenial-sanctioned attempt to keep women in their place," writes Ahmed Pierstorff.

I hate when women defend themselves or even open their mouths, so I'm gonna shut her up and try to embarass her by calling her a Karen.
Even the most boring person on earth shouldn't be using the term Karen at this point. It's the most dead joke ever.
Diminutive of Katherine, Karen is a pretty, sweet, and warm name. Let Karens exist in peace.

Get the Karenmug. As we all know, a “Karen” is a woman who is being “the worst.” A “Kegel of Karens” is the term to refer to Karens that have gathered in a group, much like a flock of birds, gaggle of geese, murder of crows, or a herd of cows.
“Wow- check out that Kegel of Karens ripping that manager a new one over there.” or “That Kegel of Karens are way too aggressive at their kids’ hockey game.”

Get the Karenmug. A woman, usually residing in the United States, who hasn’t gotten laid in so long that her brain starts to decay to the point of insanity. Karens are usually blatantly racist because they have nothing to lose.
I was in a fast food restaurant and a Karen was screaming at the employees because they forgot cheese on her $1 burger.
