scrumfuffle

A portmanteau of "Scrum" (ie. "a huddle, convening of a small group for a purpose"), and "kerfuffle" (ie. "a terrible mess of a situation"). It could be a situation when developers (or another team) meet to discuss a plan and then the entire purpose of the meeting/scrum is lost, and chaos ensues when arguments arise. Such bickering frequently occurs during scrums over work sizing and assignments. Or over rival text editor factions (ie. VIM or EMACS)
Our quick team meeting to decide our action plan quickly devolved into a scrumfuffle after Eric brought up his disdain for Beyonce, a singer universally beloved by millions
