A phenomenon which occurs during the final stages of a bad situation (or failboat), failsuck is the tendency of a situation to consume huge quantities of time and resources before it is corrected, resolved or abandoned. Once a situation collapses under its own 'gravity of fail' it becomes a 'vortex of failsuck' that begins to consume all people, time, and resources in its vicinity.
John left the meeting, but was pulled back in when Steve suggested changing the contract, collapsing the meeting into a vortex of failsuck.
