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

Janna is the best friend you could ever have, she's very goofy and funny, she's caring and selfless. She's sweet and sour and cares for her friends, Janna is a really nice person once you meet her. She has a bright personality. She hides her emotions because no one understands her. She'll do whatever you want and even make you breakfast if you didn't ask. if that your friends name.. keep her. She hates being mean but only does it to stand up for herself or friends, shes popular but not to much. She has insecurities but tries to hide it and acts like she doesn't care.
She is such a Janna

pronounced "JAH-nah". Armenian word meaning "cute" or "adorable". Usually used as a reaction instead of an adjective, but in casual conversation used as both. Derived from Armenian word "jahn", usually meaning love.

Janna is a sexy wildabeast that's been unable to be tamed her entire life. Her personality may be a ten but who cares?? She's sexy and she knows it. Everybody else knows it. And to top it all off she's one bad mofo with too much sass to fit in a purse.
