When you're days away from coming out of your fourth COVID lockdown and your local health authority advises that a new and dangerous strain has just been detected and that it would be imprudent to open up until the source of the new cluster is identified. In this context, clusterfuck is a portmanteau of COVID cluster plus being situationally fucked.
Health Official: 'With the discovery of this new and highly transmissible variant, which is unrelated to the existing outbreak, the government will not be relaxing COVID restrictions as previously scheduled. In summary, you have just been clusterfucked"
To be completely and totally screwed. To be in a state of utter, unavoidable, unthinkably insane screwage. A point in which one feels as though there is no way out of a current situation or predicament.
I was on this plane taxiing down the runway when a commuter train ran off the tracks and crashed through the airport fence. This event then caused a freeway overpass to collapse sending roughly 200 automobiles down towards the plane. The train was coming at us along with the cars and I said aloud "We're so clusterfucked".
