crapstorm
Everything going wrong
A crapstorm is a situation where everything goes wrong at once—a deluge of problems, criticism, or chaos.
The word is a slightly softer alternative to shitstorm, though still vulgar: The product launch turned into a complete crapstorm when the servers crashed.
It suggests not just trouble but overwhelming, compounding trouble.
