Basically, the mother of the notorious "Becky". Almost always the wife of a Scott, Steve or John. The typical white suburban woman. Usually a mother, often a Republican, always a basic bitch. Well known for commenting on social media regarding issues that don't pertain to her.
Also known for over estimating how much anyone cares about her kids, dog or "hubby". Not a genius by any means. Clueless about the possibility that her kids are engaging in sex, drinking and drugs.
News headline: Unarmed black Harvard student racially profiled and shot by police on his way to attend graduation.
Karen: Guys, this can't be the whole story. He must've been doing something wrong. I don't think this is a race issue. In fact, I don't even see color. We all bleed red. Besides, most cops aren't bad. There are a few bad apples, but most are really great!
The friend that nobody likes. There is one of these people in every group of friends. Basically kept there so others can hate their guts. Often kept around so they can be cut down. Karen is always a douche-bag. Every group has a Karen and she's always a bag of douche.
Person A: "Karen overheard me say I was going to dinner with you guys and now she's tagging along"
Karen is sometimes used to describe a perfect and beautiful woman; a woman with no faults or flaws and who is very adventurous and cunning.
But, frankly, Karen is a bitch.
Karen is a name actually used to describe a rather bossy and know-it-all woman (or man). They always have a comment or something that critizes you or your behavior. Karen is mean. And, unfortunately, there are a lot of Karenβs around.
Oh my god, Karen, no one asked your fucking opinion
A determined, yet very insane woman who's only goal in life is to take your kids. They don't even have to be her kids. If your kids are in proximity of Karen, then say goodbye to them because they are her kids now.
Please, Karen, I just want my kids back. It's been five years!
