Skircuffle

Most commonly used in a casual work or social setting, Skircuffle is a compound word derived from Skirmish (any brisk conflict or encounter) and Scuffle (to struggle or fight in a rough, confused manner).

Used to describe a situation of potential confusion, conflict and general mayhem.
