good for nothing

A phrase that can describe two entirely-opposite ends of the meaning-spectrum, depending on how the words are punctuated.

A "good-for-nothing" is, of course, someone who lacks the knowledge and/or motivation to make himself useful in any way. But on the other hand, someone who zealously toils and struggles his a** off trying to totally "be a saint 24/7" but receives no better treatment as a result of it --- in other words, his fellow humans mistreat him with just as much chilliness and lack of charity as if he were just a "good-for-nothing" --- will feel as if he's been "good for nothing"... he's totally worn himself out trying to be "Honest Abe" and "Sir Galahad", yet nobody acknowledges or appreciates his efforts, and so he's behaved himself exceptionally but received zero reward or praise for his efforts.

Good for the Tuna

A euphemism for I don't give a shit. Especially useful in response to unsolicited bragging or otherwise useless information. Stems from Costanza in The Opposite episode of Seinfeld.

Seinfeld: Chicken salad's not the opposite of tuna. Salmon's the opposite of tuna. Cause salmon swims against the current and the tuna swims with it.

Costanza: "Good for the tuna."

douche: "I worked really hard this weekend, but it payed off -- my boss said I did a great job!!"

dude: "Good for the tuna"
