It means that moderation, taking the 'safe' route in doing something, is a drag and is dull and predictable. Instead of playing it safe, go with the larger light fixture, the flashier piece of jewelry, the more colorful ball gown if you really want to make a statement and not appear like you 'half-assed' it. Get it?
