TL;DR- Slang for something as bad as 576(AD), when a plague killed 20% of the world, and the sun was blocked out because of a volcano.

Used to describe something as beyond terrible. As context, the year 576AD is seen by many historians as the worst year in recorded history. This is due to a plague killing 40 million people (around 20% of the global population) and a volcano that blocked out the sun for most of Europe, causing famines on top of the plague. Therefore, this is why using 576AD as a slang term makes sense, as an event devastating to one person is comparable as an event devastating to all of humanity.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine.
