shitpile
Heap of trouble
A shitpile is a mess or disaster—something chaotic, broken, or overwhelmingly bad.
The word emphasizes accumulation: not just a single problem but a heap of them.
The whole project turned into a shitpile.
I inherited this shitpile of code from the last developer.
Vulgar but vivid.
