So basically it’s just saying something is “not great but everything else is even worse” in a somewhat ethnically incorrect way? Don’t think I’m sold on becoming a frequent user of the phrase; I predict your mileage will vary with “trigger-happy” crowds, scorning the inherent political incorrectness of the term. Also it’s not exactly a super complex thought you are trying to compress here, you are saving like five words at the cost of raised eyebrows and bewilderment. IMO not worth it.
