When referring to an issue that has has sturred up controversy and conflict, you call it '(X)gate' to both distance yourself from it, and to imply that you think the issue has been blown out of proportion.
For example a neighbour-feud over whose lawn should host the common garbage-can. In that case, the wife/wives could refer to the feud as 'garbage-gate'.

Eversince 'Garbage-gate' the two of them have been avoiding each other at all costs.
We were suppose to do a story on this issue, but then Stephanie-gate came along and everyone just turned their attention to that because it was easier to pick sides I guess.

The name of a boy who was named after the thing that blocks pigs from escaping their fucking pen. A fence. This boy can come across as charming and adorable, but is really a bitch. This is a boy who only “dates” girls that are not his race (specifically white girls, even though he is not white himself). He is extremely self centered and just plays with girls emotions. Next time you meet a Gates, be prepared to get your feelings played with and begged for nudes. Watch out ladies, he’s a wild one!
Girl: “Omg is that Gates”
Boy: “Yeah. Why?”
Girl: “I don’t know, he just fucking played 5 girls in a day. It’s crazy.”
