Over on protein- bad?

So I went over on protein today. I have only done this occasionally, but I just wondered if it was 'bad'. I ate healthily, so I'm thinking it doesn't really matter...?

    Don't worry, it wont effect you negatively. Our bodies are capable of digesting betweenn 20-30 grams of protein at once. If you were to have over this amount in one meal, the excess protein would just later be digested...contrary to what some people think it does not turn into fat.
