Meaning & Usage
01
"disaster / catastrophe / what a disaster you are"
A catastrophe — used both about events ('what a disaster!') and about people ('you are a walking disaster'). When aimed at a person, it says everything they touch turns to ruin. They're not malicious, they're just cosmically unlucky or incompetent — either way, staying near them invites disaster.
