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

A word that is used when replying to text messages that you really have no comment. Also used in situations when anger is not an option. When, you have anger but want to use one word to describe how you feel, you can use this word. Understandable stops problems immediately with the other person.

Also, this word makes people feel comfortable. ONE SIMPLE WORD MAKES SUCH A DIFFERENCE.
(customer) "I want to return this expired chicken! It was expired two days ago!!!! "

(cashier) " You bought this four weeks ago..."

(customer) " But it is expired!!! I need to return it"

(cashier) "understandable...."

**customer smiles and walks away, with expired chicken

A response to a question when agreeing with somebody and not sure what else to say. A phrase that many people think they make up but is actually used in daily life. It is a very common text message response and fun to say and argue with.
