Acting like an entitled, spoiled brat won’t win you any favors and won’t make you any new friends. In fact, you’re bound to lose a few if you don’t tone it down and continue making other people’s lives a living hell.

To you and I, these people are simply huge jerks who are best left ignored. But to the internet, they’re known as ‘Karens,’ no matter their actual gender or real name. Shaming ignorant Karens has become so huge, it’s even spawned its own subreddit, the ‘Eff You Karen’ community that shows everyone how not to act if you want to be a good person.

In the mood for some more examples of unearned entitlement and outrage? Once you’re done upvoting the pics that made your jaw drop in this list, check out Bored Panda’s previous article about the ‘Eff You Karen’ community right over here.

The ‘Eff You Karen’ subreddit, founded in late 2017, is now homing in on the 1.2-million-member mark. Some of the subreddit’s rules include avoiding political topics, avoiding witch hunts, and censoring social media identities in order to protect the people being poked fun at.

They might be in the wrong and be way too entitled, but there are very few people who actually deserve being spammed by a bunch of angry internet users. Everyone makes mistakes and we need to leave enough room for people to grow and become better. Though, of course, that’s not an excuse for acting like a horrible, entitled person in the first place.

In a previous interview, I spoke about Karen memes and the context surrounding them with Matt Schimkowitz, Know Your Meme’s Senior Editor. According to him, there’s lots of potential for the meme to be insensitive and even offensive to women, so care must be taken when using this type of humor. He put it very plainly that we should all meme with caution, whatever the meme might be.

“As [the meme] grows from a parody of a common social experience of someone demanding to speak to a manager to a statement about white privilege, the stakes over the meaning of the meme grow as well,” Matt told Bored Panda.

“I think that users of the meme should be cognizant that what they're meme-ing might not be their intent anymore. It's very possible that the meme could grow even farther to exhibit misogynistic tendencies, which are somewhat already present,” Matt warned those who use Karen memes to be aware of the context.

At the core of using memes for humor lies intent. Know Your Meme’s Senior Editor Matt pointed out that the Karen meme, something that’s used and enjoyed by many people, could eventually become connected to something that many would find offensive if people with sexist beliefs started using the term as a “catchall for all women.”

Though we can’t expect memes to be completely neutral. “Meme-ing can be nihilistic artform and rewards really ugly behavior in some cases. Sometimes, what starts as a fairly inoffensive meme can grow into something really hateful, like Pepe the Frog. I could see that happening to Karen—though, I'm not really sold one way or the other on the debate."

In her defence the post is dated May 2020. But this is exactly why people said Trump was stirring racial tensions. Every time he called it the China virus, he emboldened idiots like this to think all Asians were carrying it and deserved abuse.

How does she know that the lady who crossed the street isn't sick herself and just trying to protect other people by wearing a mask? That was a common use for masks before the pandemic and part of the reason for wearing them during the pandemic which the Karen seems to somewhat grasp.

As an Asian, I am very offended by this. Four at of all, do you know how big Asia is? To you all ‘whites’ we all look the same and are always discriminated by you all. It was NOT our fault for starting this and we are not all from ‘Asia’ we can be from Japan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and so on, but we all look the same to YOU. Secondly, if she really had the virus, she wore a mask and stood away from you so as not to SPREAD IT TO YOU! Thirdly, I’m afraid that there are more cases in YOUR country than in OUR ‘Asia’ (apart from some countries in our region)😡

“Asian lady had the audacity to put on a face mask”. “ To avoid ME ( A WHITE WOMAN) who doesn’t have COVID...nice job, you started this” Okay, 3 things here. 1. She doesn’t want the Karenavirus,2, Whites aren’t superior, and 3: If you said she was Asian, she could be Japanese and have nothing to do with Corona. And even if she WAS chinese, it was the government that started this. She probably isn’t part of the government.

And, I noticed while living in S. Korea, that this is the case. People over there were wearing masks back in the 90s because of tuberculosis and other diseases. They understood that you protect others when you're ill. It's been a part of their culture for longer than ours here in the West.

According to Matt, it’s hard to find the exact origin of the Karen meme. However, he personally believes that the most convincing origin story is a bit from Dane Cook's 2005 comedy special , "The Friend That Nobody Likes" where Karen is given this title. "This is one of the earliest examples that we have to using a specific name to stand in for a whole type of person, and it's a comedic trope that we've seen dozens of times over the last 15 years," Matt explained the possible origins of the meme to Bored Panda.
