Japocalypse
The sum of the events that occured in Japan as a result of the earthquakes of March 11, 2011. The earthquakes triggered massive tsunami waves 30 feet in size that completely destroyed the areas near Sendai, the epicentre of the event. Following the natural disasters, several major nuclear reactors started failing, causing widespread radioactive fallout.
As of the publishing date of this definition, only the first three waves of destruction have ocurred: Earthquakes, Tsunamis and Nuclear Fallout. More will follow, undoubtedly, as potential for nuclear meltdown is possible causing mutations; biological events due to cross-contamination of sewage and drinking water, famine; let's not forget civil unrest caused by tainted sushi and jammed vending machines that dispense used panties, etc.

As a result of the Japocalypse of 2011, small sea reptiles found their way to the core of several nuclear reactors. It is not known if their displacement was caused by the massive tsunami waves, or simply by the helicopters that were attempting to cool the reactors with scooped sea water. What is known is that one reptile survived the massive levels of radiation, feeding and growing to the size of a skycraper to form the fourth wave of destruction in the Japocalypse - GODZILLAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Ratfucker
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
