BTW I have found that most people who claim they are superior to others because they don't "accept mediocrity" usually live pretty mediocre lives.  So get off your high horse.  I am not impressed by whining.

So much this.

For example, let's say a fan who "doesn't accept mediocrity" is a salesperson. Would he/she consider himself an "embarrassment" if he/she didn't win the "salesperson of the year" award every year? Or would they more likely be satisfied with still hitting the company goals and even possibly exceeding expectations? I'd guess it's more often than not the latter.
