[Reverend Conehead]

We all know Super Karen. Post what you know about her. Here's what I know (so far):

She was born with a complaint form in her hand.
She's been divorced more times than she's been married.
Her voice hasn't dropped below 85 decibels her entire life.
She actually changed her name to Karen.
She complains to managers at restaurants where she's not eating.
She once demanded to speak to the pilot mid-flight.
She gets into arguments about parking spaces on streets she doesn't even live on.
She asks to speak with the manager before they're even finished building the store.
She calls the cops on kids' lemonade stands for not having a permit.
She creates and leads HOAs for neighborhoods she doesn't live in.
She gets the same haircut every week, but still complains to the manager.
Her yappy little dog has the same haircut as her.
She called the fire department when her neighbors were having a cook-out.
At church she asked for God’s manager.
Her entitlement is so massive it gets picked up on radar.
She doesn't leave tips...she leaves suggestions.
She walks around other neighborhoods looking for city code violations.
She complained to Siri for bad restaurant suggestions.
She's raising her kids to be reddit moderators some day.
The home owners association rejected her for being over qualified
She's complaining about this post even before I'm done writing it.

Your turn. Post what you know about her. (No political posts, please.)

Still uses and posts on Yelp.

That place is full of Karen reviews. I only know because Apple still refuses to link to Google reviews on their phone GPS apps.

I post in Yelp....

I have a theory that it got me my passport in 3 weeks

She scares the literal crap out of parents' special life moments with their children:

 

[DFWJC]

She has a sign (or signs/flags) in her yard listing everything she supposedly stands for.
She deeply believes it makes her better than you

 

[gtb1943]

they used to be called neighborhood busy bodies and nasty old men and women

I have a different take on this.

Yes, the lady was obnoxious to ask for the ball. Everyone knows you can’t call “dibs” on a ball in the stands. It’s a free-for-all; it belongs to whomever ends up with it last.

That said, I thought the dad’s behavior was a bit dubious and contrived.

Watch the clip again.

I suspect he probably did snatch the ball out of the woman’s hand. Fair enough. However, I think he knew the optics of it may have looked bad so he immediately raised the ball in the air and walked it over to his son as if to say “yeah, that wasn’t cool, but I didn’t do it for me. I did it for my son.” He then hands the ball to his son and does this corny embrace. Then, when the woman confronts him, he does this overly dramatic shocked reaction like “whoa, I’m super surprised!”

It’s all a bit rich.

Men are stupid and women are crazy and like to complain.

She’s you wife?

 

[gtb1943]

what it says about the woman is clear

she has no concept of losing with any grace at all
FOR SOMETHING THAT IS NOT IMPORTANT EVEN

 

[Tabascocat]

I never got the fascination of catching a foul ball, just go buy one in the gift shop

 

[VaqueroTD]

She scares the literal crap out of parents' special life moments with their children:

Nope, doesn't count. Philly Jerseys. By nature, they're already idiot fans.

 

[csirl]

Has zero situational awareness. So caught up with complaining about something trivial to a shop assistant that they fail to see the 10 people waiting in line who have places to go.

One of the worst Karens in my neighbourhood is actually called Karen! Loves to complain about other peoples kids even though her own have big problems.

She claims to "love" everybody, but believes people should "just stick to their own kind."

What is wrong with this guy? There is no chance I would have given that crank a ball I just handed to my son. But I remember going to games with my dad and back then nothing like this would have ever happened. Why are people like this now? Do people not feel shame for this behavior?

Dude is a wimp for sure. He’s only bailed out by Karen’s behavior.

My goodness your thinking is exactly what I think quite a bit . No shame or humility on any level anymore . I honestly felt bad for the father . The guys got a lack of T level but he’s just trying to have memories with his kids .

Did anyone catch the woman dressed in a Texans jersey attend the opener in LA got her face busted open blood streaming all over . LA might be the worst place to wear opposing gang uniform tops in the stands . You’re promised a beating .

On a related note, I went to many baseball games with my dad as a kid, including a bunch of double-headers (do they even have those anymore?) at Yankee Stadium I never even got close to getting a ball. I took my son to his first game at Yankee stadium and we go there a little late. We were sitting in the upper deck between home plate and first base and about 3 minutes after we sat down he got a foul ball hit right to him! It was off the bat of one of the Boston Red Sox scrubs but he was thrilled and excited for the rest of the night.
