    The Karen thing is weird to me because it’s a pretty typical name and I know multiple karens. But it must be generational since it appears to have had a dramatic drop off in the 80s.

      I only know one millennial Karen and she’s cool as all hell.

      The generational divide is the point though. The archetypal Karen is a gen x woman being really entitled to a gen z service worker

      Yeah it’s kind of an ageist thing. Gen x was like the last time that name was common.

      I have an aunt named Karen. I have never asked her what she thought about that name being a sort of slur now.

      Which tracts because karen is usually associated with middle aged women, and that’s the age group.
