I don't like it when someone else says something I did was OK. Ok is not good. Does anyone else make that distinction and dislike it? "Yeah, your homework was ok." "Yeah, the music you wrote is OK." So, was it good? Did it suck and you don't want me to know? What is OK, really? Is it just for covering up a true dislike of something, or is it really between not-that-bad and good?

I guess we'll never really know what one means by OK in every case it is used; however, The first definition of OK in the American Heritage Dictionary is "agreeable; acceptable." Just acceptable is unacceptable.
