good job

Considered the most harmful phrase according to the 2014 movie Whiplash, as Terence Fletcher famously states, "There are no two words in the English language more harmful than 'good job.'"

Good Job, Though

A phrase that would follow when some one totally messed up, but you don't want to totally destroy their confidence.

Player: I can't believe i just gave up threw that interception.

Coach: Yeah, that was the worst pass i've ever seen. Good job, though.
