Karen is no longer the ‘it’ name for people who complain:​

I really wish we wouldn't use Karen or Jessica or any other woman's name. Using a man's name, maybe 'Donald,' would take the sexism out of it.

It appears # of Karens exceed Donalds; even we have a Karen in our neighborhood.
We could always compromise on a name and settle for Dorens or Karalds.

I doubt "Karen" is going to go away anytime soon.

They rarely do

I think better things can be discussed on a "drone" forum other than girl names.

I wonder if the number of newborn girls being named Karen has fallen off a cliff in the last 10 years or so.

Timmy or Jimmy would be better!

Drone flyers run into them constantly...
You can't deny reality.

I am used to this term and have no problem identifying people of either sex with it. Let's face it, there are people out there like this and we need a nice name that is not naughty to identify them. Karen is part of the US lexicon.

Absolutely. Do you like Jessica as the new replacement name for Karen?
Or will you stick to Karen?

I have a very decent and nice friend named Jessica, so I am sticking with Karen, which is a perfect name in my opinion. Karen is a perfect name for a busybody/scold (A.K.A., PIA).

I hear ya. Its kinda like the metric system. I still use feet and inches instead of millimeters.

Canada uses the metric system as the official unit. You are from Canada, I see. Love it there. Did an Alberta/British Colombia photo trip there last year.

Canada uses the metric, but I prefer the imperial system. Ingrained since youth...
I see you are Florida based. I love it there. Last time I was there Hurricane Andrew hit the region. I had to move my personal aircraft to Valdosta to avoid damage from the storm. Viewing the damage afterwards when it was safe to fly was incredible.

Yes- Andrew, Aug. 16.1992. We lost 2/3rds of our roof and had an $90K claim. We were out of AC in hot, humid south Fla. temperatures for 3 weeks before we got our power back. We are still in that house.

I quite agree. This is VERY off topic!
