A variation on wordkeine ups/word, playing on the similarity of sound between kinda and keine.

It is used when one is just about average or has achieved some trivial level of success. Also, it is used in pity on those who do indeed have keine ups, but might lose it if they were informed as such.
Person 1: "Oh God, if one more person tells me I have keine ups I'm going to shoot myself in the face."
Person 2: "Don't worry. You have kinda ups."
