For Horace

We currently have a big pile of crappy old lumber on our front lawn that was left behind by the guy who replaced the awful wooden support for the flower bed with a nice stone wall. I see this guy walk past every day, looking at it and wishing there was an HOA.
At some point we'll hire a skip.

No HOA? A container of barbecue briquet lighter and a match ought to do it...

Someone suggested “HOA” as the term of venery for Karens.
“An HOA of Karens”
That checks out.
Also glad to see you've come around to accepting Karen in the vernacular, as a word that describes something we all understand.
Education is extremely important.

I accept it - in the sense that I find the memes funny - but frankly I don’t like the idea that the culture decided we can have a running joke about people of a certain phenotype just because those phenotypes (white females of a certain age) are disfavored in the intersectional hierarchy.
Imagine an analogous memetic complex concerning “Laqishas” and whether or not it would get the same play.

Middle age white female is necessary for Karen but hardly sufficient. The resonance is about personality characteristics. Which are of course not exclusive to the phenotype.
