An attitude best described in the statement that "things don't have to be perfect, they just need to be good enough". It can be manifested at school, work, or in everyday activities - especially when doing things you don't enjoy and don't want to waste your time on.
It may be considered the opposite of perfectionism.

A person displaying this attitude - i.e. doing things "good enough" and paying no more attention to them than needed - is called a goodenoughist.

It is mostly used in a positive sense about oneself, and in a negative sense about others.

When it comes to household chores, I'm a goodenoughist.

Business is a competition, there is no room for goodenoughism.

David Goodenough

This is a character from the french youtube channel Joueur Du Grenier. He is depicted as a man who passes everything off as "good enough" with a shrug.

One use it to personify excessive tendency to put things into perspective (sometimes in a ridiculous or careless way).
Also used for burlesque black humor when one is pointing out good things in dramatic situations.

*Listens to the last Justin Bieber album*
David Goodenough: It's not that bad, he looks good on the album cover !

*A wild fire is burning a forest*
David Goodenough: It doesn't seem THAT dangerous, and it will warm the animals up !

Goodenough st

The coolest street in Boston. If you grew up on this street, you were destined for greatness. The coolest kids in Brighton hang around this street, whether it’s at McKinney playground where degenerates drive around stolen mopeds or the Fanuel projects, where young 35 gang members grow up doing hood rat things with their hood rat friends. Overall, Goodenough st is the coolest street in Boston, as the new generation of Goodenough st kids do their best at beating the yuppies out of their neighborhood. No one likes yuppies... they are ruining Boston.

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
