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

When you hint at something and it’s easy to understand that you were hinting at it (or not if you’re smart and clever, but you really shouldn’t do that kind of thing because no ones smart anymore), but you technically didn’t say it
It can even be used with facial expressions as long as the person you’re being subtle to has at least 2 functioning brain cells and enough common sense to know not to drink something on a computer. If they don’t meet these qualifications, either their IQ is in the negatives or they’re an ignorant, obnoxious, stubborn asshole and the only person that can successfully talk to them is Trump. For example, if someone walks up to you and you make an annoyed face at them, they think you’re mad and walk away (unless it’s 1 of my friends. Unfortunately, I don’t know anyone who understands the concept of “go away” and they’ll just pester me until I tell them), but you technically didn’t say, “I’m mad so go away”. Also a thing literally no little sibling ever has understood until about 18.

The key to British humour. I think that's why Americans fail to see why we keep laughing at British comedy shows and stuff when they don't get it.

Parka approaches his prey subtly. He quietly makes his way towards his friend's erection. Grabbing the erection in hand, subtleness was broken, and Parka swallows it with manly aggression.
