Define Shitstorm Meaning

Shitstorm
A gigantic cluster fuck... but not in a military sense.

A huge fuck-up of epic proportions of some sort or another and its ensuing calamity. As in, the person or normal situation you were supposed to be a part of is now so totally screwed up as to turn the entire scenario into a farce; or something that could end up in you going to either jail or losing your profession.

Holy shit... I went into the office today, and I was fully unprepared for the ensuing shitstorm. This client was so fucked up, I couldn't believe that I was actually part of this human tragedy. I think I will give up finance and take up digging ditches.

Shitstorm
A discussion about something totally pointless and inane that got out of hand and now consists of people fighting over nothing.
Basically like a flamewar, just that the discussion itself, as well as the participants, are so utterly stupid that it's impossible to put into words. Shitstorms like these always tend to be really easy to start, even when you don't want it - just like an avalanche, one false step (or word) can be enough to set free a shitstorm of epic proportions. One easy example for this is the ongoing console-fanyboy war.
