Heisei Retro

Heisei Retro is a term that refers to the very bright colours and non-internet excess of early-mid Heisei years.
If anyone can claim authorship of the term Heisei Retro, it’s Mero Yamashita, a collector, exhibition curator and writer. He argues that the early Heisei years belong to a distinct cultural epoch, as different from today as Showa was from the Taisho Era (1912-26).

Retrodream

A Retrodream is when chronically online people glaze retro styles to the point of no return.
This is beyond strange. Someone could get it to maybe parody stuff, but by making it a style, these chronically online crackheads want the tech your grandmaw grew up with, but seem to mock at us as people, it’s like a revisionist Retrodream.

Deyassification

Deyassification not only refers to taking the colour out of icons like barbie and the Wizard of Oz’s dorothy, it also refers to the disposability and eventual irrelevance of trendy characters like Barney the dinosaur.
According to Karolina Żebrowska on her YouTube channel, Barbie has undergone a drastic amount of Deyassification thanks to the ill conceived decisions of Mattel’s higher ups.

Semma

Semma is a Tamil word often used by Tamilians to denote great, awesome, wonderful, etc. In other words, it is hands down an all-fit adjective for positivity and encouragement.
If you love the filter coffee, just say, “Semma Irukke”. It is one of the trending words in Tamil and can be considered as one of the best Tamil slang words.
