chatastrophe

A chatastrophe is any typically sudden, disastrous event that occurs during online chat- whether in chat rooms or private messaging.

Room Two was noted as a peaceable room of cozy fellowship chat amongst civilized habitués. After Room One experienced the chatastrophe of a vengeful bot-loading booter, Room One chatters jumped ship and found their way over to Room Two like so many flotsam-borne rats. This sat uneasily upon the regulars of Two, as the Oners were a virtual rogues gallery of the more virulent personality disorders. In their turn, the Room Two chatters regarded the influx of Oners as a chatastrophe.

catastrophic success

Catastrophizing 

A psychotherapeutic term for a cognitive distortion where anxiety or depression leads you to infer apocalyptic conclusions from mundane setbacks and anxieties.

Catastrophizing usually comes in a litany of steps that start from a mundane setback all the way to absolute existential hoplessness. For instance:

1. Oh no, I'm going to be late for work.
2. My boss is going to be angry.
3. I'm going to lose my job.
4. I'm not going to be able to get another one.
5. I'm going to be unemployed forever.
6. My family will starve.
7. Oh God, we're all going to die!!!

Each step in the sequence is arguably plausible, but the snowball effect takes it into the realms of absurdity after a while.

1) If i ever ran into Brooke Burke on the street, i would drop trou and she would be the direct object of the greatest cumtastrophe the world has ever seen.
2) Sometimes, I just want to go to a Japanese massage parlor. Only problem is...because i love asian women so much, when I get the happy ending, it usually turns into a cumtastrophe.
