MCAS

M: Money
C: Comes
A: Above
S: Safety

MCAS means money comes above safety due to Boeing hiding it and poorly coding it to read from a single angle of attack (AoA) sensor to rush the 737 max into market, hence putting money above safety.

MCAS Syndrome

The jolt of fear you get when your car's lane-assist feature fights with you for steering wheel control. (Named for the Boeing 737 Max's infamous maneuvering control augmentation system that took away control from the pilot.)

Person #1: "Wow, the steering wheel seems to have a mind of it's own!"
Person #2: "...MCAS Syndrome."
