a suffix that is affixed to any word that describes the cause of a situation of relative discomfort derived from the last 3 syllables of 'armageddon.'

As of late, the suffix "-mageddon" has been popularized in the media, trying to make light of an undesirable yet minor situation; however like any pop culture word (or suffix in this case) it's becoming less helpful and more annoying with its overuse.

Related suffix: "-pocalypse"

Can also affixed as "-geddon." hyphen not always used.
