Create Slicer that removes a filter

I have field "STATUS" and I need my report page to include by default all records except where value of STATUS is "bad". But I need to provide a way for users to be able to click something to include...

    I kicked a game-winning goal, then you moved the goal posts on me 🙂

    I thought about this suggestion first, but rejected it for Bookmarks, thinking the latter would be easier.

    Do you have a dimension table for Status? If not, create one. Then in there, create a CALCULATED COLUMN that is something like this:

    Is Bad = IF ( [Status] = "Bad", "Yes", "No" )

    and use that in the slicer. Maybe even create a two-field slicer with this one first.
