I think that we need more firm definitions for SF terms, specifically the difference between minor to major every day problem, SHTF, and TEOTWAWKI.

Here is my view on the subject:

Personal Issue (PI = Job Loss, Car Accident, Basement Flooded)

Personal Issue Major (PIM = Tornado took out my town, Major Flooding, Major Ice Storm)

Minor SHTF (Hurricane Katrina)

Major SHTF (Another Great Depression, Wide Spread Civil Unrest)

TEOTWAWKI (Global Extinction Event, True World War, Complete Collapse of the Government)

What say you?

1- personal issue- personal issue

2- personal issue major- wifes mad at me

3- shtf- already used by anyone to describe a non planned break in dailey life

4- well this is gonna suck balls.

TEOTWAWKI = I have guns but little ammo and no food and I just found out that my neighbors who have lots of food also have lots of guns and ammo

I think that falls more under the 'Hell has frozen over' category.

I agree. Plain language is always best.
