A redneck who's greatest aspiration in life is to dig to china by doing a burnout in his yard. Gear grinders can often be found drinking Red Bull, slamming beers, and listening to David Allen Coe. Gear grinders worship engine noise and often have so much horsepower they leave half their tires on the road. Gear grinders love trucks, big tires, and unnecessarily high suspension. A gear grinder is at home in the mud but will cause as much trouble on the road as they will off it.

A truck driver that wins the lottery will inevitably quit his job to become a full time gear grinder.

Gear grinders speak an unintelligible mix of drunk redneck and gibberish.

Gear grinders are often found in the Deep South especially Texas, Alabama, and North Carolina. Gear grinders rarely venture north where they will be criticized for flying confederate flags but they have been spotted as far north as the farming areas of Maryland.

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
