I'll leave you alone.

You do that then.

Anywho, the Karen thing has been a, well, thing for quite a while. The general use of that name as a proxy to protect identity (of both teller and whoever they talk to) is a thing that started years ago on a collection of somewhat, shall we say, similarly themed subreddits, to what I can understand. An "i dont work here lady" one (self explanitory), a "malicious compliance" one (often office workers getting a jerk coworker or boss or karen in trouble because they just do what is literally demanded of them while keeping detailed records, until it ends up causing something bad to happen because they took the instructions exactly as they were demanded to), those sorts of places.

Never been there myself. There is a youtuber called rslash who just picks out some of the best stories from a variety of these reddits and reads them aloud.
