Dominos Pizza is giving away free pizza to women named Karen who aren't "Karens"

[Don2 (Don1 Revised)]

Movies. Clothing stores. The big company potluck. Karens have ruined so much for us. The name "Karen" was one of the top 10 names for girls born in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s, peaking as the third most popular girl's name in 1965. This means that most Karens we know are middle-aged or older — and we can all imagine that wrinkled face and short, highlighted hair. They've taken so much from the world — but one hero is trying to give some of that back.

Domino's Australia has offered to give pizza to anyone named "Karen" who isn't a "Karen". The company said in a Facebook post: "CALLING ALL (MASK WEARING, LAW ABIDING) KARENS. It's a tough time to be a Karen."

This is going to trigger a lot of people screaming about reverse discrimination against racists.

What's "reverse discrimination", and how would it apply to this situation?

So, to prove you're not an obnoxious, entitled Karen, you've got to assert yourself and claim a prize that's rightfully yours...isn't this going to be as hopeless as the meek inheriting the earth?

It's about selling tickets to people so they can watch Karens fighting each other for the pizza.

I'm just imagining all the Karen "Karens" sitting at home thinking I wish I could get some pizza, but I just don't want to lie.

And what's a name?

My wife often goes by "Karen" because people mangle her real name so badly but it is not her legal name. Does she qualify?

(Not that it matters, she doesn't eat pizza.)

Some company made Karen masks for Halloween.



Of course, Karen's are complaining to the management.

National Weather Service: can we have Hurricanes Karen I, Karen II, and Karen Just for the Fuck of It?

I'm kinda surprised you beat them to it.

When we were doing the long term hospital thing, my Aunt was going by some other name because Phyllis was apparently too difficult for the people at the in-hospital Starbucks to handle. It caught my Uncle by surprise when she was picking up for Terry or the like.
