Lol so I agreed with wanderminds analysis completely and then I thought of replying to you and saying, I think you're pretty wrong.

And realized that pretty good to me sounds like less than good but pretty wrong sound's like very very wrong 😰😱😭

Don't worry, I already know I'm wrong. The graph on this post clearly shows that I'm wrong and in the minority. But that doesn't really change how I interpret it. I almost used Pretty Bad as another example that I think many would have agreed with, but didn't end up doing that.

You're not wrong at all. Some people are mistaken about what terms actually mean, that's all that the graph demonstrates 😅. Btw I love your username, it's really clever
