For that matter, it is "not good" or "not my cup of tea" or "not by the hair of my chinny chin chin" as well.
Too abstract for my taste. Your mileage may vary.

Talk to the Language Judges (AKA 'editors'). I tried several different variants on the text, here, and this is the only one they accepted.
Sorry it didn't fit yer pistol. But your answers are just as good. I wish you'd been one of the Judges. This one has taken FOUR months to get mounted.
Your 'abstract' comment is also interesting.

"existing in thought or as an idea but not having a physical or concrete existence"
