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

Well it could be a typo of 'wtf' = what the fuck, but i like to think of it meaning 'well fuck that' :D
Made comical by the online flash cartoon 'the end of the world', when a meteor is about to hit earth, and decides not to, and is just like 'well fuck that'.

WFT is a internet variation of the commonly used WTF. WFT stands for, "Well, fuck that." Its most commonly used when referring to an event, situation, or gather that you do not wish to be a part of or simply just have the mindset of, fuck it-ism. WFT and WTF should not be confused as a mispelling because the long and short term affects of your message will be completely different.

You: Whos is it and where?

You: The 400 pound hairy elephant bitch?
Mary: Yes.
