18 Karens: Live, Laugh, L*nch The game that would like to speak with the moderator, please The game is underway! Karen Schultz had a problem. Her neighbor, Barry, was up to something. She was sure of it. Barry was a physicist at the local university. Which was great, really. It added some class to the neighborhood, even if he was a bit dull at parties. But the thing was, he had a shed. And it was too big. 16 feet long - she'd measured - and the Chablis Ct. restrictive covenant specified a maximum of 14 feet. She'd be willing to overlook that, but he was also doing something in there. Something that did not involve garden tools. There were lights, and extension cords. Her first instinct, as usual, was to call the police. But Barry didn't seem like a bad guy. He still thanked her every time he saw her for the gift basket she'd brought over when he moved in, and that was now two years ago. Maybe he was just working on his Christmas display a little bit early? Rather than bother the police, or Barry, she decided she'd just take a look herself. One morning, after he'd left for the university, she fortified herself with a glass of wine and snuck over. The first thing she remarked as she entered the shed was that it was bigger on the inside. Much, much bigger. There were hallways, and rooms full of machines. Scared but intrigued, she decided to poke around some more. A few hours later, she'd seen enough. It was definitely very strange, but she wasn't sure there were any clear bylaw violations. Her iPhone wasn't getting any reception, so she'd have to go home to check the city's website to see if there was anything worth reporting. When she tried to leave, however, she realized that she had a bigger problem. In all her wandering, she'd lost track of where the entrance was. Frustrated, she wandered from room to room, but all she found were more machines, each more confusing than the last. Finally, she came across what seemed to be an intercom of sorts. At least, it had a speaker, and something that looked like a microphone. Maybe she could reach Barry and get him to help her out, as embarrassing as it would be to be caught snooping. After poking at buttons for a bit, she managed to get the machine working. The speaker emitted static for a few seconds, but that cleared up and she heard a voice. Several voices, actually. "Hello? Hello?" "Hey who is this?" "What is this place anyway?" "Has anyone seen the manager?" She tried to answer, but they were all talking over each other. No one was listening. Irritated, she jabbed at buttons until suddenly, the lights flickered and went out. A low humming noise began, gradually growing in volume and pitch until she had to cover her ears. Then there was an explosion, and a shower of sparks. Then silence. A few seconds passed, then what seemed to be emergency lighting came on. And there, in front of her, was... more of her. Another 17 of her, to be exact. The Karens blinked at one another in confusion, then immediately set to arguing about whose fault this was.

I told myself if five days passed and this game A) wasn’t full, and B) Real Estate Karen was available, that I would sign up. So I guess what I’m saying is this is a signup for Real Estate Karen in which I will be mimicking every dumbass real estate agent in my office. Expect short posts, no intelligence, and (hopefully) a grisly death that I can use as a quasi-voodoo doll for the worst agent in my office.
