Americans: do you recognize this definition of gongshow, or is it a Canadianism? http://www.unwords.com/unword/gongshow.html … (see also: how my day's going).

@avibryant It sounds enough like shitshow that I'd probably recognize it in context. -
@d6@avibryant this is surprising, I thought the etymology was from an american tv game show where a gong was rung. I may have made that up. -
@aaronmblevin@d6 that's absolutely the etymology. I'm surprised for the same reason.
