Karenitis 

A disease that causes middle aged entitled women to behave like animals when they don’t get their way. If met with resistance from people, the Karenitis will start to develop. Symptoms include dramatic outburst, arguing with strangers about random things that don’t concern them, and asking to speak to ones manager. May also include threats of suing or calling the police. A lifelong virus that can only be cured by public exposure and losing her job.

Karenisation 

The process of becoming a Karen.
Early middle age, or tragically, sometimes even earlier.
From being fairly cool, secure with yourself and happy with the world around to going full Karen: entitled, uptight and loving a public spat over really nothing from the exalted position of just being a consumer.
- Is it just me, or has Emma's really changed?
- Well, when you start living in the suburbs, in a neighbour like this, there's bound to be a little Karenisation.
