When an organization or community is doing poorly enough that its smartest people, seeing the writing on the wall, leave for better opportunities elsewhere. This is common in business and other organizations that perpetuate a common goal or mission and once purged it typically accelerates the demise of the organiztion.
For example: Facebook's poor stock performance since it's IPO and lack of favorable stock options for employees puts them at risk of brain drain. Many will likely head over to Google or Apple, but they'll be in trouble.

Mark Zuckerberg: Sheryl, can find me those repots on Zynga's...Hey?! Why are wearing a Google sweatshirt?!
Sheryl Sandberg: Sorry Mark. We had a good run, but your lack of focus on ad revenue and overvalued IPO has caused this drop in FB stock value with no end in sight. I and the others are leaving before the stock tanks.
Mark Z: The others? They're all leaving Facebook? You can't! We'll never survive this brain drain!
Sheryl: Yeah, sorry. You should've thought about that before going public.

An unfortunate and potentially traumatic experience which occurs when a heterosexual male is masturbating to a porno flick, and notices that the porno flick is about to enter the money shot scene. The masturbator furiously races to match the timing of his ejaculation with that of the porn star's facial spray onto the cum-craving whore. However, just when the masturbator is about to climax, the scene inexplicably cuts from the gaping whore to a close-up of the porn star's sweaty face as he is jizzing. As a result, the masturbator ends up draining his willy to the porn star rather than the cum slut, leading to a deeply unpleasurable orgasm, severe long-term emotional stress, and a dark era in the masturbator's existence as he questions the meaning and purpose of life. The porn star's face is generally accented by a visible vein popping from his beefy forehead, hence the term Vein Drain.
Dude, I was jerking off to "Butt Fuck Sluts Go Nuts Pt. 9" last night, but just as I was about to erupt in sludge, the camera cut to the roid-head, leading me to vein drain. I have decided to leave all my belongings to you in my will.

A pretty good song by Nirvana. This was Kurt's favorite song that he wrote. His second favorite is Pennyroyal Tea.
Chew your meat for you
pass it back and forth
in a passionate kiss
from my mouth to yours
I Like you
pass it back and forth
in a passionate kiss
from my mouth to yours
I Like you
