mushroom management

A way to manage tech teams working to an ill-defined task, described by Tracy Kidder as "Keep them in the dark, feed them shit, watch them grow" (in his 1981 title 'The Soul of a New Machine' about the people that built the first minicomputer at Data General).
As long as the outcome remains undefined, there's no way to hold them accountable for whichever result. You'd better apply mushroom management instead.

Cream of Mushroom

The curse of calamity; uttering the words "cream of mushroom" invokes a wrathful curse upon the world. Each time it is uttered, something bad happens to someone in the world.
Example 1

Guy 1: hey jackass, I'm gonna beat the shit out of you
Guy 2: cream of mushroom.
Guy 1 was then mauled to death by a bear in a gruesome manner.

Example 2

Guy 1: none can stop me now. I am the definition of godliness. Fall beneath me; cream of mushroom.

The world was then slowly ripped apart as the sky began to fall and magma charred the earth, leaving no survivors.
