Good enough isn't mediocre though, mediocre is lower than that. Mediocre is, by definition, insufficient, unsatisfactory, &c. Mediocre is what you use when something is about average but you expected better, you cannot simultaneously expect better and be content.

Mediocre is "just good enough not to be so bad it causes problems." And for the many, many things in my life that are not important to me, "bad, but not so bad it causes problems" is, in fact, "good enough."
