When listening to a music library or playlist on shuffle, the songs you don't know well or would not normally listen to, are known as shuffle buffer.
I was listening to my music on random when I hit a shitton of shuffle buffer. Where the hell is the stuff I know?

Your boss or line-manager. A good shit-buffer will protect your from all the shit raining down from senior levels of management. They will stop you from being pulled into random projects and protect you from all the politics so you can just get on and do your job without unnecessary stress.

(noun) An event of failure of such great magnitude that it exceeds the maximum negative measurement of failure (an epic failure) and loops to the maximum level of win instead.
Similar to measuring time on a round clock, being late by several hours at today's event (fail) will cause you to appear early for tomorrow's event (win) because of the buffer overrun of failure.

"The school discontinued playing polka-yodeling during detention when the students starting playing it at school functions. Apparently the punishment achieved buffer overfail and became popular."
