The origin of "The Shit Hit the Fan"

There once was a young boy named Shan. He resided in a cosy apartment in the company of his hard working Father. Within the walls of their humble abode the two weren't really ever left in peace. The juvenile soft machine had his circuits askew. Epilepsy was bound within him and would erupt out in seizures. One afternoon Shan's father looked on from the kitchen at his son who was slacken across from the television. Shan got up from the couch and traipsed over to the screen with the intentions of changing the channel. Right foot, left foot, right foot, left foot, no, no, no, no, right foot raises, electrochemical signalling, hostile and conflicting, right foot lowers, right foot does not land. Aiming for release, neurons about dancing and throwing. "THE SHIT HAS HIT THE FAN" cries Shan, "THE SHIT HAS HIT THE FAN". Sadly the vacillating boy had meant to say "the fit has hit the Shan".
