Wrong Thing

( n.)

   A   design,   action,  or  decision  that  is  clearly  incorrect  or
   inappropriate.  Often  capitalized; always emphasized in speech as if
   capitalized.  The  opposite  of  the  {Right  Thing}; more generally,
   anything that is not the Right Thing. In cases where `the good is the
   enemy  of  the  best',  the  merely  good  --  although  good  --  is
   nevertheless  the Wrong Thing. "In C, the default is for module-level
   declarations  to  be  visible everywhere, rather than just within the
   module. This is clearly the Wrong Thing."
