The penultimate form of shambles (which could be foreseen by any five year old), caused by the ineptitude of so-called management failing to understand how the job is really done. Sacking all the administrative staff at once will result in an absolute shambles.
The management team thought it was an excellent idea to sack everyone in the administrative grade: "look how much money we will save, aren't we such clever boys and girls!"
The result was of course an absolute shambles because no real work could be done. It was a far bigger shambles than had been created in the past.

Get the Shamblumpkin mug.Shambutter originated as a joke among a group of friends. When discussing methods to clean a firearm, one friend revealed that he lubed his using a cream that bikers put between their naked skin and "shammies" to eliminate chafing. As a result of the conversation, "Shambutter" was born.
Shambutter is used to lube anything. You can lube your firearms with it, not only guaranteeing its functionality but also extending its lifespan by several decades. You may, with permission of course, lube your "partner" with it if so desired. Shambutter, when mixed with water (aka "shammywater"), provides a very nutritious drink that, unbelievably, slides down the throat even more effortlessly than water itself. It also lubes your organs on the way down. These are just a few examples of what shambutter can do. In fact, the better question to ask is "What CAN'T shambutter do?" It cannot cure cancer. Yet. It cannot prevent death, but it may forestall it depending on its usage. It does not guarantee that your sex life will improve, but if you do attempt it you will definitely be one slick son of a gun. Also, it does not guarantee that you will be bulletproof, as it will not stop a bullet fired at a perfect 90 degree angle. However, if you are naked and completely covered with shambutter, any variation in degree of the bullet other than a 90 degree angle will most definitely result in the bullet sliding off your body with no harm to you whatsoever.
