premium mediocre

Attempts at being upscale when you have little clue what class really is. An attempt to be fancy, when it's in fact little more than a polished meh. A little splurge to get fancy, when it's flexing a little bit of status from spent money more than achieving a high standard of quality. Still essentially mediocre, but with some fancy frills polishing the appearance without substantial improvement.

Originally coined by Venkatesh Rao in 02017 "Premium mediocre is the finest bottle of wine at Olive Garden." it has quickly spread from Twitter throughout the intarwebz.
"I wanted to impress her, so I took her to a fancy restaurant." "Yeah bro? Like where?" "Red Lobster" "Man, that ain't fancy, that's just premium mediocre."

McMansions are about as premium mediocre as you can get.

Mediocity

Mat "Pookie" Swingle's favorite "word", which in fact isn't a word at all. It was just mediocrity misspelled on a Panda Express fortune cookie that Mat found when he was 12.
Mat showed me the fortune cookie paper while we were hanging out one day. It said, and I quote, " Be broke or be wealthy, but never accept mediocity."

mediocrement

n. It's like a compliment, but not. But it's also not an insult.

"Well, you didn't miss ALL the pins on your last bowl."
"Here, have a participation trophy."

Midori

Midori is a fragile soul. She has a mind of her own and is highly sensitive. Shes beautiful and funny, and shes one of the most adventurous people you'll meet. She loves outdoors, and being free. She hurts a lot but takes her time to persist in different things. Shes open to talk to anyone she knows well, and opens up to who she trusts. And if she trusts you, you should be very grateful. she keeps on trying for people, no matter what happens. She is a sweet soul sent from heaven but when you upset her, prepare to be killed.
Midori, shy, beauty
