The season — most commonly autumn — when mainstream, trend-driven, PSL-sipping, scarf-wearing, apple-picking behavior reaches a cultural critical mass and becomes impossible to avoid or mock without also secretly enjoying it a little. Basic szn is both a gentle roast of seasonal trend culture and an affectionate acknowledgment that some things are popular for a reason. You can call it out, but you're also going to the pumpkin patch. The self-awareness is part of it. Everyone participates; not everyone admits it.

It's officially basic szn — every Instagram is a leaf pile and a flannel shirt.
