The Nirvana Fallacy is the name for an instance when a person does not do something because they fear that it will not turn out like they envision it in their minds.
Sometimes this prevents people from doing anything.
This stems from the philosophy that anything short of perfect is just as good as nothing at all.

John wants to lose weight, and decides to walk 2 blocks to the subway station near his job instead of taking the bus home.
He tells his friend, Mike...
John: I'm going to walk 2 blocks to the subway instead of taking the bus home.
Mike: HAH! Like that'll do anything! You're a freaking whale!
John: *sigh*...I guess you're right.
He then proceeds to take the bus home. That is the Nirvana Fallacy in action.

A girl that wears over-sized Nirvana graphic tees without listening to a single album or song of Nirvana’s. When questioned about their shirt they usually reply that they either “liked the design” or “love them but can’t remember a single lyric or song title.” Nirvana girls are the beginning of a clueless movement of young millennials and teens that spend hundreds of dollars on artists and films that they’ve never heard or seen and therefore do not understand. The Nirvana Girls movement has all of the trademarks of a consumeristic cult that’s bent on aggravating and instilling violent feelings in true Nirvana fans that have been disciples of their music.
How was your trip to Los Angeles?
Okay, there was something weird about 8 out of 10 girls I saw at Venice Beach, however.
What’s that?
They were all wearing the same Nirvana graphic tee.
Oh, those are Nirvana Girls, it’s a growing movement that’s bent on ridiculing Nirvanas fan-base.

A Nirvana Poser is somebody who tries to fit in with Nirvana fans and fails terribly at knowing the simplest, well known song Smells Like Teen Spirit. Nirvana is a Grunge band that was super popular around the 80's and came out with 22 albums. The lea singer/guitarist is Kurt Cobain. Not Curt Cobain.

A teenager with long greasy hair that plays acoustic guitar all day. They usually wear Iron Maiden shirts and love bands like Metallica. They can be seen in places like Sam Ash playing guitars because they don't have enough money to buy them.
