A moment that is generally agreed to have had a significant influence on pop culture and everyday life. While the term was coined by Rose McGowan in context of the #MeToo movement, and is mostly associated with the K-pop community, the phenomenon is universal and a basic component of how culture works.
Real world events such as social/political movements, the election of a new U.S. President, major catastrophes and disasters, as well as entertainment such as movies, music and TV, can all function as cultural resets. Notable cultural resets in relatively recent memory include:
* The Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964
* The Watergate scandal of 1974
* The release of Nevermind by Nirvana in 1991
* The September 11, 2001 attacks
* The election and inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009
* The COVID-19 pandemic

"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s

ash-ra-ful, also pronounced, baa-boo.
a male characterized by an abnormally large head, usually suffering child-like features, that may cause surprise when their true ages are revealed, especially around 15 years of age.
ashrafuls usually are very good at sports and can usually play with both their right and left hands, being quite amphibious, as one famous ashraful had once said.
ashrafuls are also quite often spotted sprawled on the floor in front of large screens that may emit light at HD rates, most favorably, in "al-bundy" style. this is common when you have entered their inner den. if you ever spot one, consider yourself lucky, but be weary of the immediate handshake that may follow.
when referring to an, or mimicking an ashraful, a high-pitched, nasal voice must be used in accordance to their traditional mating calls.
