Meltdown is a better term that has been around longer! Crashout is just some dumb zoomer shit that is just worse than the original in every way! Meltdown will always be better! I'M NOT OUT OF TOUCH, THE CHILDREN ARE WRONG!

"Crashout" sounds like you are coming down from a drug high or something in an unpleasant way.

"I might go to my room and crash out "

These make way more sense than that zoomer logic

I agree that meltdown is better.

I didn't even realize it was so frequently being used as a term for a meltdown until like this past week.

The latter is (part of) the name of Meltryllis's Noble Phantasm in the Fate franchise.

Don't worry, give it a month or 2 and they'll have moved onto the next stupid slang term some idiot influencer came up with.

I only hope so, but will it just unleash an even greater evil?

It will always get worse. Language has been regressing for years.

And yes this includes when I was a dumbass kid too.

Crashout feels much more abrupt than a meltdown to me.

You know ice is going to melt, reactor cores will eventually get to a point where they melt without outside interaction, etc. A crash is sudden and jarring.

'Meltdown' really is a reference to 'nuclear meltdown' which is probably in origin to Chernobyl (in popular lexicon, at any rate), which is also why 'going nuclear' is a similar slang.

It doesn't really bother me - for some people I know, crashing/crashing out means going to bed. They aren't crashing any more than GenA's are crashing. It's all just reiteration

Yeah, that happens with the younger generation. They probably genuinely didn't know about "meltdown" already being a thing. It happened with another term that bugs me, but I can't really talk about that one.
