Karen-ing

 All the times i've replied my emails, i know how i sound like.

When i want to use a friendly tone, a cold & hostile tone, a business tone. I know how i sound, and i deliberately choose how i want to reply.

Sometimes though, i macam sengaja reply in a way that'll make people go "ish dia ni. nak apa sebenarnya!?", sebab... macam... malas kot.

Malas nak explain pepanjang. Malas nak considerate sangat. Malas nak friendly.

And this happens only when i was inconvenienced, but i have to pretend or feel as if i yang cause the other party inconvenience.

Know what i mean?

Macam kita yang disusahkan, tapi dalam email, kita kena kata "apologies for any inconvenience caused". I know that i don't need to put that sentence pun.

Tapi part of me still want to be manner-ful huahua ehem ehem =p

But then.. i wish i know how to be a Karen. If being a Karen means i can be honest about stuff, sounds good doesn't it?

Karen btw, is something my daughter apparently knows very well.

The other day, she said she fought with her friend at school. 

Me: La kenapa la?

Nadrah: Because she was in her Karen mood.

Me: You know what a Karen is?

Nadrah: Yeah. It's people who get upset by silly things. Like when a guy who park a car, and the Karen tells the guy to move his car so that she can park her car. 

Me: *shook*

Ok i take that back. I don't want to be a Karen 😅

Pretending to be nice is much better than being a Karen.
