brat

also seen as Brat
Brat is GenZ slang for someone who may say dumb things and/or might have a breakdown of some kind but still parties through it. Characterized by an independent, confident, and hedonistic attitude, it reflects a cultural phenomenon among the young and online population and has expanded to refer to anything. It's meant to be humorous, for example, "Don't you think my new haircut is brat?" 

Historical perspective: Coined by Charli XCX after the title of one of her albums, the British muscian declared on social media “kamala IS brat” after President Biden stepped away from the Democratic nomination in July 2024. Gen Zers began editing viral videos fusing brat songs with clips of Harris, and the vice president’s campaign adopted the album’s lime-green aesthetic on its social media pages during "brat summer."
