Network Dictionary – Goodthing

“goodthing” is a term I use often in design meetings. Used as a catchall phrase to either cynically deride someone’s idea or to make a point that everyone can obviously see the benefits of.

For example: Using a bitspew on the floom with the newest glimrods, this would solve the problem and that’s a goodthing.

Or more typically: you think that this protopatch on the hexadulian data compressor is a goodthing ?

With thanks to Scott Adams for the most brilliant Dilbert on Networking ….EVAR.
