May 22 Word of the Day
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

Grinding is the most popular form of dancing with somebody of the opposite sex. It is when a guy gets behind a girl and the girl rubs her ass all over the guys front. It can be very intimate but can also get pretty crazy on faster paced songs.
Guy 1: Dude, I got so much ass tonight!
Guy 2: Grinding is the best thing ever!
Guy 1: Good thing we were wearing compression shorts or they would've definitely felt our dicks.
Guy 2: Hell yeah, I was hard as a rock!

original meaning: a dance move that is supposed to include gyration of the hips, whether alone or with a partner. takes skill, and is very sexy. the American word for what Jamaicans call "wining".

today: is sadly usually done half assed by girls bending over and sloppily moving their ass around with little to no skill. the American word for what Jamaicans call "daggering".
