Don't Panic

The single most logical phrase in the entire galaxy. Coined by Douglas Adams it is found in large friendly letters on the front of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
My house as been struck by lightning WITH ME FIXING THE ARIEL for the THIRD time in a row, and my boss has just fired me from my job with brilliant prospects because I had to come in wearing bandages and with crazy sticking-up hair, and your telling me NOT TO PANIC?

Doki Doki Panic

Also known as Yume Koujou: Doki Doki Panic, this game was originally actually supposed to be a Mario game in Japan, but it got changed to a game about an Arabian family going inside a book. This later became Super Mario Bros. 2, for the U.S. The reason this become Mario 2 was because Nintendo thought that the game made for Japan was way too hard (you can't really blame them), even though it did introduce a few mechanics that are used in some Mario games today. The U.S. version of the game actually did see a release in Japan, known as Super Mario USA.

Also, the U.S. version did use some characters which became standard in some Mario games (just look at Birdo, and the ability to play as Toad).
According to tcrf, Doki Doki Panic was originally created as an advertisement for a "Dream Factory" in Japan (That is what Yume Koujou translates into).
Typical person who doesn't know better: isn't Doki Doki Panic just a ripoff of Mario 2?

kernel panic

A kernel panic is a type of error that occurs when the core (kernel) of an operating system receives an instruction in an unexpected format, or that it fails to handle properly. A kernel panic may also follow when the operating system is not able to recover from a different type of error. A kernel panic can be caused by damaged or incompatible software or, more rarely, damaged or incompatible hardware.
Dude, my laptop sucks... it suddenly developed a kernel panic about 15 seconds after boot-up.

organic panic

When a douchy, moccasin wearing, cool bearded hipster dude and his equally douchy girlfriend named Kale, who breastfeeds a baby that's not hers, can't find an organic product at the supermarket and they go apeshit.
Trader Joe's at night, probably on Earth Day. DOUCHY FEMALE BREASTFEEDING BABY THAT'S NOT HERS: (flabbergasted) "What the fuck? Where's the organic quinoa? There's no organic quinoa! HIPSTER DUDE: (Screaming effeminately at a Trader Joe's crewman ) "Where's the organic quinoa? This is the 21st century, they don't have these problems in Canada man." LOUDSPEAKER : "Organic panic aisle 3, I repeat, Organic panic aisle 3. Prepare for inevitable hissy fit, words of entitlement , and of course, vote for Bernie discourse.

Moral panic paradox

Intense hysteria about a social or political problem that, instead of solving or reducing the problem, actually makes it worse.
The intense xenophobia behind the Trump Administration's efforts to stop migrants from Central America from entering the U.S. have actually increased the number of asylum seekers many times over from during the Obama Administration. It's an example of a "moral panic paradox" -- people are afraid the asylum laws will change so they need to immigrate now before that happens. Another moral panic paradox happens when gun-control advocates seek limits on the sale of assault rifles after a mass shooting. The result is increased sales of assault rifles because people feel they need to buy them now before the laws change.
