Woman has the shuts because girls' underwear on a supermarket website accidentally shows a picture of meat, suggesting that she's meat, and takes a year to complain about it
This is bloody ridiculous. Nobody is suggesting that little girls are pieces of meat. It's obviously as mistake. I mean did you honestly expect Woolworths, Australia's largest supermarket, to know about which photo belongs to every single item avaliable on their online store without any mistakes? And why did it take you a year to complain about it? I believe that this is ridiculous. If you ask me, here is how I would summarise it:
"Today on the Karen news network, someone somewhere makes a mistake"
Bloody ridiculous. What do you guys think?

Supermarkets are open longer hours (sometimes 24 hours) than department stores. So unless the convenience store attached to a petrol station sell 'em ...
I am a frequent customer to 24 hour supermarkets. In my long nocturnal life, I don't know that I've once come across underwear that wasn't designed to be peed in for sale in a supermarket. A Walmart, sure. But that's not what I think of when I think 'supermarket.'
Though strangely now that I think about it, I did actually buy underwear at a gas station on a truck route.

It's all about "who's right" in these situations: the people who got worked up, or the people who got worked up over the people who got worked up?
I say, yes.

Well, as you'll recall Karen is a gendered slur -
But, functionally, yes, this is "someone somewhere makes a mistake and it's a giant big deal for some reason".
yes, I've seen this bullshit complaining about the "Karen" being a slur before. Other people have addressed this complaint perfectly, so I'll just quote what they said "Complaining about the term "Karen" is a real Karen thing to do". Now let's get into why it's bullshit to say that Karen is a gendered slur
Let's set aside the fact that there are male Karens out there and let's only assume that there are female Karens. It's not true, but let's assume for argument's sake that it is. Karens are usually abnoxious, racist, rude people who think they're better than everyone else. Karens like to harrass low income customer service people or people of other races. Examples of Karens include, but aren't limited to, the woman who tore down her neighbour's Australian Aboriginal flag in Mildura, Australia, the Karen who walked into a hardware shop and harassed a female employee (yes, the victim of the Karen was female) when asked to wear a mask at a time when masks were compulsory, etc. This kind of behaviour is unacceptable, and I'll continue to criticise people for that kind of deplorable behaviour, and I could give a fuck if someone is stupid enough to think that I'm sexist because of it
