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?
Did they change their comment or something because no part of what they say is claiming to be ok with this? Perhaps I'm reading it wrong
If a comment has been edited, it will display a little pencil icon. I did not edit my initial comment, but I edited this one so you could compare.
I think Corsican just got confused, but I suppose they could be using a strawman argument.
They did not change it, there is no edit icon present on their comment
It's called a straw man. Just made it up out of thin air
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.
This is a person This is a human This is an individual
Are all of those adjectives? lol
My brother in christ you need to retake primary school English and learn what nouns are
In this context, 'This' is the adjective, as it describes the amount of Karens there are in this sentence. Karen is indeed the noun in this situation.
An example of using 'Karen' as an adjective would be: 'did you how so-and-so went completely Karen on that clerk?'
You visualize how so-and-so acted in a particular way towards the clerk. The adjective to describe the behavior was 'Karen'.
Hope that clears things up.
If I call you a Muppet does that make Muppet an adjective?
On the internet anyone and everyone is always right.
Can almost hear that fucking haircut through this
It's not an adjective, it's pejorative, Karen.
