Singaporeans! If you wanted to describe something (okay, fine, the US presidential debate) as a "shitshow", how would you say it in Singlish? https://twitter.com/pronounced_ing/status/1311295875344404483
I'm trying to think how I'd do it, and I don't think there's a direct translation of the word "shitshow", but I'm leaning towards something like "debate similanjiao" which literally translates to "debate what cock" and would mean "what the fuck debate was that"

( @pronounced_ing)
Or maybe "wah that debate rabak sia" to mean that the debate was out of control (in a negative way), or "that debate, damn jialat" to mean that it the debate was a super disaster.
