fit hits the shan

adj. when things go really bad really quickly and everybody in the vicinity is effected

Derived from a transposition of shit hits the fan. Used in replace of shit hits the fan to try to regain some of the comic style and originality that the phrase used to have by making the listener think for a second. Also makes the phrase okay in front of the kids.

I just hope I get laid off and receive my severance package from this place before the fit hits the shan.

Bastila Shan

A key character and a jedi in the game, Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR). She possesses the rare power of Battle Meditation. Bastila used this power to launch an attack against the Sith lord, Darth Revan. During Bastila's attack on Darth Revan his apprentice, Darth Malak, launched his own attack on Revan's ship and in doing so claimed his place as Sith lord. Since then Malak has been trying to hunt down Bastila because of his fear of her Battle Meditation.

During the course of the game your character's history is interlaced with Bastila's own backstory. Further revelations of your character's past turned out to be one of the best plot twists in the Star Wars series yet. As such your character can influence Bastila to turn to the dark side or remain in the light.

Bastila Shan: The Jedi do not believe in killing their prisoners. No one deserves execution, no matter what their crimes.

shan't

Contraction of shall not. Sounds a lot like shit and therefore is somewhat comical.

I shan't shit the bed
Sally shan't sell sea shells by the shitty sea sheep shore.

Shan-tan

Invented by RH from Hartlepool. When you get a suntan or are sunburnt whilst wearing an unsuitable piece of clothing, or sitting with part of your body in the shade. Leaving you with visible white bits. This has no relation to the taxi driver tan.

Look at her shan-tan, she looks like she's got 'Best of Both' tits!
