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

Similair to peak, but used to describe a person. Almost a mixture of when somebody is dead/boring and peak.

The most amazing creature found at the west coast of Norway. It is very cute, has big blue eyes, and calls upon you at night to go and watch the little lights in the water together. It learns people to love and trust life. You will never experience a night as magical as with a Ståle.
M: I met a Ståle last night.
L: Oh you're so lucky! How did it go?
M: It was like a Disney movie, I never felt better!

To be Stale is to be in a Zen like state, for instance whilst having a hangover where the body is feeling sick, and the mind is not willing to do anything, hence zoning out, and being stale.
