Karens are a daily obstacle a functioning society must deal with for no apparent reason. Most of us generally avoid causing physical or emotional harm to others around us without any real motive for doing so, but Karens are quite the opposite. They believe the world revolves around them, and they're absolutely furious about it. They want to speak to the manager as soon as any minor inconvenience appears, even if it's caused by the Karen herself (which it usually is).

Since everyone's burnt-out by watching Karens fail, again and again, to behave with any form of decency and respect for other human beings, we've dug deep into the latest Karen lore and pulled out some absolute gems of people acting like spoiled toddlers who really want a balloon at the local grocery store and will scream until their parents get them one. Here are some of our new favorite times Karens went too far, whether it be in real life or on social media.
