AWA 

"After Whites, Armageddon" is a common trope in science fiction stories. Good guys dressed in light colors come to save the day. They leave, and villains in black costumes come and screw things up. Happens all the time.

Oh dear, another AWA on Planet Yeti. Warp factor 5!

They can't balance the budget; they just kick the can down the road.
