Well, maybe it wouldn't be so awkward if you were drunk enough...

Loved it! Vengeful Karen is just as fun as vengeful Kelly! Hee, wonderful song choices.
Author's Response: There were definitely a lot of ways to go with Karen, and I'll probably do a "Karen II" anyway, but I figured it would be good to show a little Vengeful!Karen. She deserves it. And thanks for the compliment about the song choices, I picked ones that most people would know (I hope). Thanks for the review firthgal.

Hee. The only one I know is You Oughta Know, but I got the point. Good for you, Karen.
Author's Response: Yeah, I tried to pick 3 songs of which everyone would probably know one. "You Oughta Know" is definitely the most well known. I wanted to put in Janis Joplin's "Take Another Piece of My Heart" but it was too long for 55 words. Thanks for the review invis.

Awesome song choices!
Author's Response: I'm really glad that you thought so. I struggled to pick ones that made sense/people would get. I figured most people would know that first 2, and Orgy's cover of "Blue Monday" fit well enough to just use it. Thanks for your review JennInTheCity.

Thanks for the links. I knew the words to "My Immortal" but didn't know the lyrics of the other 2. They were all perfect for Karen to play - and it's now easy to see why they left. I'd heard 'You Oughta Know" many times but never realized what she was saying! Wow.
Author's Response: Yeah, "You Oughta Know" has some pretty intense lyrics. So it works well in the context of this chapter. I had a whole bunch of songs, but I decided to go with 3 that were more well-known. Thanks for the review kaystar.

Oh, God, that is hilarious! Great use of songs in this one. Definitely and interesting spin!
Author's Response: Thanks, I had several ideas for Karen, but I decided to go with this one. I'm thinking if/when I do "Karen II" I'll try something funnier, or more off-beat. Thanks for the review desert island.

I think this might be my fav chapter so far. Totally plausible, no? So subtle Karen. I also totally agree with your pre-Pam Jim and Toby pranking team. Good call.
Author's Response: I'm glad that you liked the Karen chapter. It's obvious pretty different then any of the other chapters, and I'll try to do a happy/funny Karen one in the future. Also, yeah I think the Toby/Jim prank-team had to have happened. It makes my understanding of Michael's Toby-hate more realistic. Thanks for the review feared_or_loved.

Karen, Karen, Karen. Definitely better than crying next to a fountain.
Author's Response: I agree. Despite the dubious fact about her moving Scranton, I always felt like Karen was stronger then the show made her really. So staring down an ex's girlfriend qualifies. Thanks for the review lisahoo.
