catasterpiece

(n): something that's so terribly messed-up, it could not possibly have been done worse, even on-purpose. Often the result of trying to cover-up a previous wrongdoing

When Claude tried to glue the broken statue back together before his boss returned, he glued the arm on the wrong side. It was a true catasterpiece.

catastrophic success

An event or product that attracts so much interest and attention that it exceeds its own sustaining capacity, resulting in the inability of the organization to respond to demand.

The new product was such a hit that the store ran out, resulting in angry crowds destroying the mall. It was a catastrophic success for the company.

Catastrophizing

A psychotherapeutic term for a cognitive distortion where anxiety or depression leads you to infer apocalyptic conclusions from mundane setbacks and anxieties.

Catastrophizing usually comes in a litany of steps that start from a mundane setback all the way to absolute existential hoplessness. For instance:

1. Oh no, I'm going to be late for work.
2. My boss is going to be angry.
3. I'm going to lose my job.
4. I'm not going to be able to get another one.
5. I'm going to be unemployed forever.
6. My family will starve.
7. Oh God, we're all going to die!!!

Each step in the sequence is arguably plausible, but the snowball effect takes it into the realms of absurdity after a while.

catsitting

An often occurring event when Skidoo riders, out of charity, allow cat riders to ride with them. After a rip through the woods, the Doo riders will invariably be forced to wait for the cat riders to catch up. More often than not, the cat riders never show up due to mechanical failure of their inferior sleds. Hence, the term catsitting refers to Doo riders sitting and waiting on cat riders.

We went rippin with Arctic Cat Dave in Cherry Creek, but ended up catsitting most of the weekend.
