'It is what is is' - jesus people are sheep - out of nowhere this phrase is now everywhere, everybody is saying it.

Some times you just need to let sleeping dogs lie. I mean, we can try to identify the synergies between the 'it is what it is' group and the anti-'it is what it is' group, but, instead of getting bogged down the semantics, can't we take some time to cool-off and maybe take this whole debate offline? Because, at the end of the day, you need to get every one to drink the kool-aid. I think if we can touch base at a later date and leverage the collective knowledge base, there will be an opportunity to be a first-mover in this exciting space. We really need some out-of-the-box thinking to overcome the hurdles, but its not like the issue is mission critical.

Seriously though, a robust, scalable solution is what we're after - and when we've identified the metrics that will allow for the implementation of a win-win strategy, then it will really gain traction and allow everyone to have a seamless, customer-centric experience.

i made this thread over a year ago and since then 'it is what it is' has become the most hack phrase in North America - it's gone from the sports realm into everyday life
