Alcestis is a 25 year old CypriatGreek/Greek girl who is still in her adolescence. After dating her a few weeks you will find out that her real name is actually spelt Alkistis and she doesn't like that version of the name.

If you are familiar with the urban dictionary definitions of both these names then you will know that neither spellings of these names have a good reputation. In effect to hide her identity an Alkistis will ask you to call her Anya. In inverted commas; this is supposedly easier for us to pronounce. We all know that's not true; she just wants to market herself as Anya, who is known to be sweet and beautiful.
Again; dont be fooled by the mythological meaning of the name; to an inexperienced lover an Alkistis could feel like true love and that is how they get you. Alkistises are half cold, unfeeling beings with half equally cold and equally unfeeling again beings. (I dont dare call one an human.)
Alkistis: Hi, my name is Anya!! (she walks away)
Player 1: Damn, she has beautiful eyes. (Meaning bum and rack.)
Player 2: That is an Alkistis (alcestis) mate, really not worth the trouble, she wont even let you go bareback on her.

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
