A transliteration from Chinese buzzword 折腾 (zhe teng), which means "to be tormented by restless turning left and turning right and turning left and turning right", "to be tormented by going back and forth", or figuratively, "to be tormented by toing and froing", "to piss people around".
Don't Z-turn! Let's keep it simple!
Z-turn is from 折腾 (zheteng) in Chinese,it means "flip-flop", "get sidetracked", "sway back and forth", "dithering" and "major changes". The word was famously used by a Chinese leader in 2009 by saying "Bu Zheteng" in Chinese (Don't do zheteng, meaning don't get sidetracked). Online conversation between educated people tends to use "Z-turn" (pronunciation is close to zheteng) to replace zheteng to avoid censorship since the word was once used by a former Chinese leader.

When people put vine booms in their videos and put random memes.
For example: amogus, the rock, bread falling slowly, ect.
they also make random stuff out of context and they distort songs, videos, images, sound effects, ect.
They can be cringe sometimes but its all in good fun.
Gen Z memes are funny and cringe (in a good way) at the same time.
