Failure has been discovered to have electromagnetic properties of its own, dubbed failwaves by top scientists in the field of failology. These failwaves often cause objects or people in the vicinity to break or malfunction, and are the reason why you never want to say "It can't possibly get any worse". Failwaves can be measured in SNAFU units, often called a "sna-u".
Used more colloquially to describe anything failure prone, failwaves describe how sucky something is.

* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”
