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.
I can tell just by looking at it that this restaurant's failwaves are off the charts.

The review I read said it measured at 33 sna-us. The waitstaff couldn't get anything right until the fifth try.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
