    This Karen is an asshole, but so are the supermarkets who collude on prices and collectively steal from everyone else just because they can.

      I hear you suggesting that makes it okay.

      If so, how much theft are you cool with subsidizing?

      I immediately think less of anyone who uses Karen as an adjective.

      It’s a pretty good litmus test for identifying people who are chronically reddit-brained.

        I immediately think less of anyone who doesn’t know the difference between a noun and an adjective.

          Calling someone ‘a’ Karen is using the word as an adjective.

          Calling someone ‘Karen’ is using it as a proper noun.

          I’m guessing you just looked at the upvoted comment that said it’s not an adjective and assumed it was correct.

          For shame.
