Comments on: excellence in the funniest of places … http://brettcrim.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/untitled-2/ ponderings on life, culture and a relentless pursuit of a Savior Tue, 24 Jun 2008 19:31:24 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Rich http://brettcrim.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/untitled-2/#comment-130 Rich Mon, 19 May 2008 18:14:55 +0000 http://brettcrim.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/untitled-2/#comment-130 Brett, you are ridiculous. Excellent is the enemy of Just Good Enough. People out there making things Excellent are raising the bar for those of us who are content to let things stay Just Good Enough, and it has really wrecked our world. Seriously, why would Starbucks spend resources on improving your cup lid? It's a throwaway piece. I think if the Just Good Enoughs all put our heads together, we could slowly and stealthily decrease our standards in a way that people hardly notice. One day, what we now know as Substandard or even Rather Poor will be accepted as Just Good Enough. The only thing standing between me and my dream are all those wasteful, ignorant Excellent people. Brett, you are ridiculous.
