What your company's HR will call direct workers action, such as a strike, to avoid verbiage indicating fault or inciting further "events". A word so intentionally vague it can unironically be used to explain the happenings of varying amplitudes from a staged walkout to a mass shooting.
"Yesterday, our family here at insert company name, had An Event on the shipping floor from which several individuals will not be returning." -Linda, HR.

The term used to refer to the Coronavirus pandemic of 2020. The effects of the pandemic coupled with the resulting protests, economic and social impact and international escalation of tensions between countries make it the singular feature of 2020 that will never be forgotten by mankind. The term is used to avoid directly referencing the painful time is was for everyone when trying to make a point without drawing attention to the pandemic itself
Before The Event people loved travelling to Asia to experience exotic foods and sailing on cruise ships. unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the future we'll live in.

When someone has an orgasm so intense it is a life-changer. In a 1999 field study of 125 people who had experienced a climax of this magnitude, 15 died of heart attacks during the orgasm, 32 swore a lifetime of devotion to their lover, 43 swore a lifetime of devotion to their hand, 23 committed suicide convinced they had experienced the ultimate thrill life could give them, 11 began touring as motivational speakers, and one decided he was going to watch the Britney Spears video "Baby, One More Time" one more time to see if he could replicate his orgasmic event. Less than a minute into the video he had a seizure and died en route to the hospital.
(from "My Date With Giganti Tongue") ...her heart skipped, she held her breathe, THERE, oh my. She felt her soul fluttering from her body in ecstasy. Her limbs shuddered and she rode the orgasm like James Bond rode the tidal wave caused by the collapsed iceberg in the one where Halle Berry wore a bikini but was trapped in that igloo by the mad Korean. Hummingbirds peppered her heart with kisses and she felt higher than Cheech and Chong at a Grateful Dead concert in a jet flying over Mount Everest. And then, as the orgasmic event slowly subsided, there was that ultimate moment of clarity when suddenly she felt she could prove Einstein's Theory of Relativity was a load of horseshit.

Definition of Hell Event comes once again from the love Nikki group. It is an event where you must spend large amounts of diamonds, meaning large amount of money, to complete the suits shown.

It appears that during the extended impeachment inquiry testimony today, while tweeting like a deranged lunatic for what may have been hours, the Trumpster may have had a bladder event.

An event where it's a bunch of senior citizen or old people. They all lack teeth which makes them toothless. The activities done at the events are usually boring.
Guy 1: Dude, are you going to Harry's Grandpa's party?
Guy 2: Nah man, I heard its going to be a toothless event...bunch of old people talking about their hip replacement
