When he came to the US to DJ he kept his name for a little while, then changed it to Richard Blade (because he didn't want to be 'dick' and because Blade sounded cool.) I wonder if Karens will go through a similar evolution? Will we see a lot more Kays? Maybe so, but don't forget that "Dick Trickle" was a 'local boy' race car driver here in Wisconsin until the guys on Sports Center (Dan Patrick & Keith Oblerman) made a point of mentioning him whenever he did well. That publicity got him a full time NASCAR ride. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's spelled Karen right?" "Right. But it's pronounced Kareen." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night!
