DEAR AUNTY PAM: I am getting married in 3 weeks. Everything’s been going pretty smoothly until my father texted me last night. A little backstory: my parents split up three years ago and my father has a girlfriend that recently moved in with him. My mom has a new boyfriend in her life and to try to keep everybody happy, I invited everybody. The problem is my dad just sprung on me that “Miranda” has an emotional support pet and needs to bring it.

Published 12:08 pm Thursday, May 29, 2025 I have noticed that suffering occasionally from bouts of insomnia is something akin to a bout of hiccups. Everyone has a foolproof cure. “Hold your breath and drink from the other side of the glass,” I’ve been staunchly advised, which not only did nothing for my hiccups but ruined the front of my shirt. “Hi—YAAA!” yelled another friend from behind, trying to scare hiccups out of me.

DEAR AUNTY PAM: Well, I’ve had it. I’m a woman in my early 40s and my name is Karen. As you know, any woman accused of being nosy, or racist or unhinged is called a “Karen.” I am tired of people in my office making jokes about my name and even my husband, when we have a disagreement, will say, “OK, KAREN,” because he knows it infuriates me. It’s so unfair! There must be millions of Karens out there suffering the same thing. What can we do? What can I do? I’m seriously considering changing my name.
