A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

IMO that perception is just the result of the Internet being English language centric and Americans making up the majority of English speakers online. We have a disproportionate impact online. So whenever you hear about a Karen, she is probably in America because most of the time you hear about something it's from America.
I haven't seen data on the issue but I'd imagine the data would probably just reflect that humans are humans no matter where you are.
In my personal experience I haven't seen this kind of behavior much, then again I don't work retail.
Yeah i know. It's all tongue in cheek. I did consider of I need to clarify but decided in the end not to.
