A phrase typically used to indicate that having too much of a "good thing" generally becomes a bad thing, and you're gonna have a bad time.
This applies to pretty much everything - even seemingly normal everyday habits - as well as more obvious examples like food, sex, drugs (especially alcohol), and, hell, even water.
All of them can be good, and they often are. But too much of any one of them will always lead to negative and painful consequences, some sooner than others. Especially if you're actively trying to ignore those consequences by continuing to over-use said "good thing" - all you're doing is just putting off that pain until later... because you're still gonna have to deal with it eventually. Somehow, someday, it's gonna bite you in the ass, and the longer you push it off, the harder it's gonna bite. Could be physically, mentally, emotionally, or even spiritually...
In fact, people are very frequently utterly destroyed by good things.
The difference between medicine and poison is always in the dosage.

There's really no such thing as "too much of a good thing," because once you start reaching levels of "too much"... then whatever you're doing, it ain't a "good thing" anymore.

Get the Good boy mug.This word can be used in two very, very different ways. The original definition was meant to be distasteful, gross, straight up stanky. But the other definition is a blessing to humanity. Instead of the entire body being elephant sized, I’m talkin specifically about that trunk, if you catch my drift. This 2nd meaning defines the booty of a lady to be of a great size, whilst somehow maintaining incredible shape. This is very rare, as this section on the size to shape stall is a very small section. If you happen to stumble upon an abunglulous booty, make sure to indulge it’s very sight for as long as possible, for its beauty and rarity are hard to come by.
HomeDawg 1: Uh, excuse me, but Gyat. Look at that bro
HomeDawg 2: Holy guacamole bro. That Abungulous (good version) booty got my hittin the stanky leg.
HomeDawg 1: I wish my I had the Google lenses so I could snap a picture, because I know this a sight we won’t see everyday.
HomeDawg 2: We have been blessed today my friend.

Get the Abungulous (good version) mug.Said to acknowledge someone else's explanation of something and thank them for it, with the added undertone of acknowledging that yeah now that you think about it, really that should have been obvious all along and you were being stupid for even asking the question in the first place.
An early (and possibly the first) appearance of the phrase, with this undertone, occurs in a joke in the 1992 episode "Holoship" of British sci-fi comedy TV series Red Dwarf, with the following exchange:
The Cat : Why don't we drop the defensive shields?
Kryten : A superlative suggestion, sir. With just two minor flaws. One, we don't have any defensive shields. And two, we don't have any defensive shields. Now I realise that technically speaking that's only one flaw but I thought that it was such a big one that it was worth mentioning twice.
The Cat : Good point, well made.
