Was sitting through one of our twice a day production meetings (twice a day? WTF???) and someone mentioned the "80% solution".
"80%, I said... don't you mean 70% solution?" I mean, the basis for the phrase was that 70% was "passing".
But, no, some mouth breathing moron decided that if 70% was good, then 80% is better, so now we need to make sure our product meets the 80% solution, because it is better.
Sounds like someone may have been indulging in the seven-per-cent solution.
