Are We Sure that Brewers Karen and Phillies Karen are Not the Same Woman?
Published:
In case you missed it, we had another Karen incident at another MLB ballpark. This time it was Brewers Karen, who got fired after an ICE retort to a Dodgers fan. Here’s the story from FOX LA, and then a side-by-side with the ball-snatching Phillies Karen from Miami:
It’s remarkable. It’s like they came out of a Karen cloning vat, as if there’s a Karen mold or a Karen template. You press a button and the machine produces a Karen. “Alexa, create for me a Karen.” Then the forge spits out a middle-aged white woman with short, blonde hair, glasses, and an attitude. She’s entitled and thinks everyone’s business is her business. She wants to see the manager and recognizes no boundaries.
How many Karens do you think are out there? That’s the real question. Is there a Yankees Karen? White Sox Karen? They’re living among us, ready to take our home run balls and send us to Alligator Alcatraz. They spent their 30s and 40s watching Judge Judy and Dr. Phil and now they think they can walk up to those no-good, loitering teenagers and tell them to scram, and/or cut their hair.
We may have a Karen epidemic on our hands. Who is responsible for this?
