Bambabola

Bam - ba- bowl - la (noun, exclamation)

The universal explanation for when something unexpected, inconvenient, or just plain weird happens and nobody can say why. It works as a shrug in word form: it acknowledges that life threw a curveball and there’s nothing to do but accept it.

Example 1:
Jojeet: “Flight cancelled, hotel double-booked, and it started raining indoors?”
Lucajeet: “Yep. That’s the bambabola.”

Example 2:
Wajeet: “I studied all night and the exam was on a totally different topic.”
Kijeet: “Ah, the bambabola strikes again.”
