#4 Daughter, the amazing Sara Marian, was talking about some asshat she knows and called her a Karen. I asked if the asshat is a Karen, or is she a Becky? Sara asked what was the difference?
I said I gather than a Becky is offensive and clueless, and a Karen means it.
#4 said:
I think she pretends to be a Becky so she can get away with her Karen bullshit.
Classic!

I’ve said the only people happy about the “Karen” meme are women named “Becky.” And neither of them seem to mind TOO much, beyond a mild annoyance – they know no one is referring to THEM. But I also think we should just replace both with “Ivanka.”
