Posted July 3, 2020 Had a discussion with my therapist the other day about how the Karen meme is demeaning to women. She said my words were a revelation to her and stopped using it. I'm happy. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 3, 2020 I'll admit I'm not sure what the male version of 'Karen' is, but I see the term "Karen" less as demeaning towards women and more towards the entitled ones that make a fool of themselves that think if they lash out and throw a fit if they don't get their way people will bend the knee and give in. If a clerk or a store manager asks you (not you personally, just in general) to wear a mask for safety and health reasons and you don't believe it does any good and wish to leave Then leave. There's no reason to take all in your cart and throw it to the floor. Eggs, bread, meat, milk, someone else could have eaten that. Someone who really needs it. You don't have to damage the produce and throw a toddler tantrum to vent your rage. Share this post Link to post

I watch a channel on youtube called r/start has has a bunch of stories for r/Idon'tworkherelady and a few others. But there's a vid that went viral of someone who was anti-mask throwing a fit and her food before leaving because she was asked politely to wear one that the clerk had offered. ---------------- Eta: I'm so glad my headache is finally gone. Can it stay gone, please? Edited July 3, 2020 by Syiren Share this post Link to post

Posted July 4, 2020 Uh... I'm sorry...? Like how can me showing concern for someone be "misguided". That's probably not what they meant, but it kind of came out that way. Well, inserting sarcasm into her argument doesn't exactly mean she's being totally logic driven in her writing. Seriously, I don't think she realized how tunnel vision she got. It seemed defensive like fight-or-flight. When I get that way it normally ends up pretty badly for myself and I withdraw horribly. Little miffed that nothing I said seemed to satisfy her and it took someone else to get some compromise. I digress though, the last thing I need to do is get off topic with another's mental health. *slaps self* Alright, time to move to something else. Nothing's going to come of me sitting here typing.

Posted July 9, 2020 Yep. Definitely glad I followed the advice and locked my door. thieves are among the lowest of the low, especially when they take advantage of someone who is helping them and offering them shelter. if they end up sleeping on a park bench tonight they can reap what they sew. There is no excuse for that. Share this post Link to post
