Legacy

The term Karen from Cook's sketch "The Friend Nobody Likes" has become an internet meme that references stereotypes that are common to "basic white women"; the most notable is the stereotype that a Karen will demand to "speak with the manager" of a hypothetical service provider.[13][14]

Controversy

A 2007 article in Radar magazine about joke theft noted widespread internet discussion of the similarity between the bits "Struck by a Vehicle", "Itchy Asshole", and "My Son Optimus Prime" from Cook's 2005 album Retaliation and the bits "Guy on a Bike", "Itchy Asshole", and "Kid's Names" from comic Louis C.K.'s 2001 album Live in Houston.[15]
