Portmanteau of apocalypse and ellipsis.
Specifically, where apocalypse is defined as "any universal or widespread destruction or disaster," and ellipsis is defined as "the omission of a word or phrase necessary for a complete syntactical construction but not necessary for understanding, or an example of such omission."
When these two words activate their Wonder Twin Powers, they take the shape/form of:
The empty feeling experienced when the date of any sort of cataclysmic prophecy finally arrives, and NOTHING HAPPENS.
Much like being on the receiving end of a pregnant pause.
