The Jank is Strong With This One...

I'll admit: creating Commander decks is something I struggle with. 100 cards that all synergize...<shudder> So I make a LOT of mistakes. My friends make better Commander decks, faster.
Whether 60 cards, or 100 singleton, I can accept an ill-defined amount of janky stuff in my decks if they increase the fun-factor, at least until I figure out what to do with those card slots to sub in stuff that works better. At some point (again ill-defined) the jank definitely gets too much. Sometimes it's because I keep getting my butt handed to me by friends, or mana is just too wonky to keep going, or the "fun" card just doesn't fit in with the rest.
So that this doesn't get tl;dr, what level of jank will you accept, do you actually seek to build in a level of jank, and when does it get too much?
