    If anything, the "karens" are probably one of these names. Most popular girl names from the 70s.

    Based on this data, the "I'm trying Jennifer" meme is much more apropos.

    I've known a lot of really nice Karens in the 50s and 60s. I've never associated the name with someone not nice until I read about it in here starting two or three years ago.

    I have a niece named Jennifer and another named Michelle. Both are now about 30 years old.

    Before they were called Karen, we all used to use the name Becky.

    Yeah, "Who cares for Karen?" isn't much of a campaign slogan.

    Dick wins? Did we learn nothing from Nixon?

    I'm a very experienced guy but I must admit with a red red blush, I've never heard that one before.

    Kariannes across the states are uniting based on accents and slurred speech.
    They are fed up with being called Karen in error due to the new definition of the name.

    I once had dinner at a friend's house. He would put every plate that had leftovers on it down next to him for the dog to eat then when he and his wife did the dishes they would not use hot water.
