(J. Robert) Oppenheimer later recalled that, while witnessing the (first atomic bomb) explosion, he thought of a verse from the Hindu holy book, the Bhagavad Gita:
If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one ...
Years later he would explain that another verse had also entered his head at that time: namely, the famous verse: "kālo'smi lokakṣayakṛtpravṛddho lokānsamāhartumiha pravṛttaḥ",
which he translated as "I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."

Get the become shat upon mug.Verb. To make a complete idiot of oneself in public. To behave or speak in such a way, or to make a comment or express an opinion that is so profoundly witless, senseless and obtuse, that you have forever after defined yourself as a person of comical value only. Never to be taken seriously again. Of worth only as an object of ridicule and derision.
American academic, Paul Carlos, recently beclowned himself by claiming, in effect, that nations that sought to defend themselves from terrorist attacks by killing those responsible for planning the attacks or building weapons for the attacks, including nuclear weapons, were gulty of murder. Former Reagan staffer Doug Bandow has also beclowned himself by claiming that the Bali terrorist bombing was in response to Australia's Iraq involvement. Even though the Bali bombing was before the Iraq war.

Overall its a justifiable excuse for when you do something completely amazing or really stupid. From passing an exam to accidental setting your house on fire due to the fact that you didn't catch that last flaming chainsaw.
