Some people use Kevin for male entitled and jerk like people but yes Karen is now the word for entitled jerk.

But it's supposed to be the kind of jerk who appeals to authority. "I want to speak to the manager!" "You can't bbq here, I'm calling the police!"

To most it's just being entitled. This guy was entitled because he felt he had the right to beat someone for not knowing his dogs name. It can be a simple as a neighbor that insists they can park in your driveway because it holds two cars and you only have one. Nobody calls anyone unless the neighbor refuses to stop parking in your driveway. Then it's you calling and having the car towed.

That is an example I read on the AITA subreddit. We all agreed the neighbor was a Karen.
