Not chaos — chaos with a filing system only you understand.
means The state of lacking order or structure, where systems, plans, or things have broken down or were never properly arranged in the first place.
from Built from 'organization' plus the negating prefix 'dis-'. 'Organization' traces back through French to Latin 'organum' (tool, instrument), itself from Greek 'organon' (tool, sense organ) — the same root giving us 'organ'. The idea of 'organizing' originally meant arranging parts into a working whole, like organs in a body; slap 'dis-' on front and you get that whole coming apart at the seams.
