Let's face it: being petty can be fun. It's nice to be the bigger person, but every once in a while, when you get to exact a little revenge by being a little petty, it almost makes up for the situation, ruining your mood.
And even better is when you get to do it to a "Karen." For the unversed, here is Dictionary.com's definition of a "Karen":
"Karen is a pejorative slang term for an obnoxious, angry, and entitled middle-aged woman who uses her privilege to get her way or police other people’s behaviors As featured in memes, Karen is generally stereotyped as having a blonde bob haircut, asking to speak to retail and restaurant managers to voice complaints or make demands, and being an anti-vaxx, Generation X soccer mom."
But we digress. At the end of the day, frankly speaking, it feels much better if we can be petty than just letting things slide under the rug. So, we've compiled this list of memes or tips and tricks that simultaneously leave you in hysterics while giving you ideas. Enjoy.
And, to all the Karens out there, stay indoors. This one's not for you.
