An event that has the appearance of falling completely apart at any moment, yet somehow manages to
work out. Characterized by increased levels of both stress and
enjoyment. Provides excellent story-telling material.
That trip where we drank rum and
warm Pepsi and got stranded on that island and it started raining so we had to sleep in an old
Datsun on that guy's
front lawn when you were puking and we almost lost our jobs...man, that was a fiasco!
