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

Literally "what you on". Can be used two ways. Either meant to see what you're doing, or used to see what you're trying to do (in terms of what your intentions are).

"wyo" stands for "what you on"
"wyo" is used in same scenario as "wyd" but usually is used when someone wants to know if you'd like to hang out.

An abbreviation for Wyomissing, Pennsylvania
Wyomissing is rich prep town that has lots of pot, too many fat cops, and not enough snow days. This scenically beautiful town borders the city of Reading, PA, full of low class thugs and drug dealers. Wyomissing and Reading are like completely different worlds. All you have to do is cross the bridge out of West Wyo/Reading, and you're in the hood.
Anyway, pretty much all of the people that live in wyo are rich and snobby. The funny thing is that that more then half of them try to come off as "gansta" or "poor". Everyone knows they're worth millions, but they try to deny it. They act all thug until they're in front of someone who counts, and then they're the rich nancy boys we all know they are.
When the kids party, they really PARTY. Girls are known to get completely tanked laying on their front lawns every weekend while their parents are in Dubai or some shit.
Then there's the ones who take advantage of their parents and spend money like it comes out of their butt. They all look like clones of each other in their polos, uggs, designer bags, ect.
Its a really pretty, nice town where nothing ever happens thats more exciting than Mary Caroll getting her stomach pumped at Christine Loomis' party. Not even close to the real "gangsta life" as many wyo people think that they live.
