A euphemism commonly used in connection with rocket explosions etc.
seemed to be begging for anagramming. Hearing it today from both
SpaceX and a combat-robotics competition provided the impetus for this
post.

See a sudden dip & dumb, silly crash = "Rapid unscheduled disassembly"
"Rapid unscheduled disassembly" = I crash badly, plus sudden demise
Suddenly die & a dumb crash? Spiel's ~ "Rapid unscheduled disassembly"
