When everyone is a subject, it is used with a singular verb.
In formal writing, a pronoun or possessive adjective that refers to everyone is usually singular: Everyone should bring his or her own lunch. However, in conversation and in informal writing these pronouns and possessive adjectives are more often plural, although some people consider this incorrect: Everyone should bring their own lunch.
They invited everyone but me and Karen.
