“Karens” are usually middle-aged women who put their noses in other people’s business and generally make life unpleasant for all. And they’ve been around a LONG time. In fact, this story from a Redditor took place in the 1980s!!!
It tells the tale of a woman who was hellbent on making life miserable for everyone around her. She probably would have continued to do so, if the homeowners hadn’t stumbled upon her big secret.
Let’s go back to the 1980s—a time of big shoulder pads, big hairstyles, and big attitude:

The homeowner sought to appeal on the fine.
While on the property, she was also made aware of one of Karen’s big secrets, which would ultimately lead to her downfall.
However, she was still a member of the HOA, and the fines only got more extreme.
