Now pretty good and not very good are the same thing?

People use 'not very good' in a sarcastic way, but they're like rectangles and squares in the sense that not all rectangles are squares, but all squares are rectangles. Bad analogy I know.

lol...they're both a parallelogram with four right angles they're not the same thing. That makes no sense anyway and isn't even remotely applicable to this. Pretty good and not very good are not the same things, they're contradictions.

What Proggyman sees:

Pretty good = not (very good); i.e. "not" applies to "very"

What Crowquill sees:

Pretty good =/= (not very) good; i.e. "not" applies to "good"

he's not creative and he's a homophobic tool

that's how.

Plus he had one good and one decent album, the rest is average at best.

best example I can give, my son.

he loved Eminem in 2000-01 apx. Now he laughs at that time and can't understand why he ever liked the guy
