When someone is labeled as demanding, argumentative, always REFUSES to admit that they're wrong, and are overall unbearable. Due to these qualities, whoever is in this particular zone has barely any chance at getting a romantic partner or friends.
Friend: "Can you believe it?! The guy had the NERVE to Karen Zone me!"
Me: "I mean, you are a bit demanding."
Friend: "PROVE IT!"
Me: "I mean, you are a bit demanding."
Friend: "PROVE IT!"

Get the Karen Zonemug. Usually blonde with glasses, tries to act young but looks like they're deep into their late forties. Cries in the middle of surgery when she finds out her child got hurt on the playground and shows that awkward weakness in a professional setting either trying to gain attention or sympathy. Demands you call her Dr. So-and-so with a minor in Gender Studies while some doctors are like 'Call me Ben. Call me Josh. Call me Mike.' Her favorite cartoon character is a yellow pill with one or two eyeballs. If she asks the tech to burp the DaVinci robot and they ask her to repeat herself because she mumbles, she will email the director saying that the tech does not know how to use the DaVinci Robot.
The Anesthesiologist variant of this is the same: Blonde with glasses, never smiles with RBF and when things go down and you run your hardest to get blood from the blood bank and doing the procedure of reading the patient name, blood type, DOB and serial number three times, Dr. Karen will still think you walked and took a break.
Don't socialize or mingle with Dr. Karens. They're miserable.

"Dr. Karen threw a tantrum when I took only 2 minutes to get blood from the blood bank thinking I should've gotten it just like that. She's like a spoiled 5-year-old brat who wants things handed to her immediately and if she doesn't get her way, she'll throw a tantrum."

Get the Dr. Karenmug. A racial slur against white women that perpetuates a stereotype that they're an inherently belligerent and argumentative people.
Taco bell employee: "Sorry for the wait, some Karen held up the line."
You: "That's a very racist thing to say and you shouldn't say it again."

Get the Karenmug. A raging behemoth of Karen demanding "a word" with the President about unaliving defenseless children faster.
Did you see the interview about illegal settlements on TV yesterday? Their right-wing extremist leader was upset the news anchor was trying to hide the evidence and went full Genocide Karen instead.
