When you're so bored that you look to the internet for cheap entertainment. Watching sick video after sick video.

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

When one does something cringy while talking to someone, realizes that it was cringy and starts doing something even more cringy in order to cover up their previous action.
This can repeat endlessly or until the other person just leaves.

Watching seasons worth of a television show, when you don't like the show. It's just so dumb that you can't stop

Watching as much cringey stuff untill you get physically ill. Like bingeing on candy so you feel ill afterwards

When you watch something really cringey and cringe the fuck out but still keep watching it because it's hilarious and also because deep down you know that you like cringey stuff and you can never stop
