Boebert is the queen of the Karens.
Literally nobody named Karen is that big of a shitbag.
It's too bad another, less common label didn't come into common usage. I've known a number of Karens (and a couple of Chads) that were just people.
Chad is a name I had never heard before rhe memes is it common in the US?
"Chad" is an old English name. In WWII, it was used by British soldiers in a form of the "Kilroy was here" meme. It was not common in the US prior to the 1940s, so we can hazard a guess that Americans picked it up from Brits during WWII.
It peaked in popularity for baby boys in the early 1970s. Around 20 years later, it became identified as a stereotypical name for an upper-class "frat boy" in Chicago. The more recent slang usage is a distant descendant of that usage.

The fact it was old English kinda blows my mind. I'm from Scotland and never once heard it. Interesting read thank you
It was a popular name for boys born in the 70s and 80s.
Not common.
The majority of all names are good people, but if there is one name that has a higher percentage of assholes than others it is probably Karen
Totally unscientific, but I work in 911 dispatch and I'd say that off the top of my head probably the most common name I get for Karen-type calls is probably Carol, the male equivalent in probably Alan
Solid boomer names. I’d say Karen’s are more gen-x names. Like I’d think it was a popular baby name in the 60s through 80s.
Lauren is a close second.
Given how naming entitled women Karen is an insult to women actually named Karen, I propose we replace "Karen" with Boebert.
For example: "She asked to see the manager because I wouldn't honor this expired $1 off coupon for our competitor. Then she said 'do you know who I am?!!!' She's such a Boebert."
You could boil down conservatism to an "astounding sense of entitlement."
She'll make a model Fox News pundit if her constituents ever wise up.
She won her last election by like 505 votes...
Which is really close considering her district
Her election came so close that the person running the NSFW bobo subreddit shut it down before she was announced the winner
This is the weirdest election correlation I've ever heard
If she loses her election and starts an OF I would immediately subscribe.
Dunno why but she is hot as fuck and the more she shows me what a trashbag she is the more turned on I get.
she may need some bleach, since they prefer to hire blondes
She may even be too stupid for Fox News.

I think she’ll fit right in.
She's not blonde🤔
It is just a case study, as plain as plain can be, that all you need to have is confidence, to dupe a significant portion of the population into making you their leader.
It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.

Why can we just fool them the other direction then?

She's very pro-life.

Boebert has also vehemently denied she was vaping since she was thrown out. Turns out there's a video and it's another example of what a vile human being she is.

No problem. It's a common misconception.
You've already gotten a few corrections from other folks, I'll just add that in the 70s there was no secondhand smoke from smoking either.
Big man. Props, and have a good one!
No, it really isn't. There's a ton of other shit in it. Like nicotine. It's still terrible for you.
Pure white trash
Lauren "Bim" Boebert
How many times does she get off scott-free after these incidents before it stops being entitlement and becomes reality?
There is a very good chance she will lose next year. This kind of thing just increases those odds so hopefully more of it will be caught on camera.
It was incredibly embarrassing.
By 'embarrassing' do you mean 'hilarious?'
Maybe she thought it was The Rocky Horror Picture Show?
