For those of us who consider ourselves political moderates, life is a dispiriting slog, a sorry mix of rectitude and ineptitude.

The criminal ineptitude makes you furious.
We were sort of inept (in the second half) and their defense had something to do with it. That was the game.
Men are passionate, men are weak, men are stupid, men are pitiful; to bring to bear on them anything so tremendous as the wrath of God seems strangely inept
For the first few months, I was a comically inept parent. The first night home from the hospital, I held her bare body against my bare chest until a friend who was a doctor came by and asked what I was doing, and told me to put some clothes on that baby.

We're struggling a lot. This is probably the lowest we've ever been as a staff. Our guys practice hard. We just can't make a play. We can't score a touchdown for some reason. We're just inept down there. I think we realize we have work ahead of us.
Even the so-called 'gold standard' anti-doping programs designed for Olympic-caliber athletes are ineffective, let alone the inept programs that exist in professional sports.
