Are you an Optimist or a Pessimist?

[heyheysg]

What about being a realist?

Is being a deluded Optimist or depressing Pessimist closer to the 'Reality'?

I consider myself an optimistic realist. I see that if people can put hard work and hours into getting what they want, they will succeed. Unfortunately, I know I'm an lazy ass.

I need a poll

 

[Sonicron]

Yes, I am an Optimus.

Wait, that didn't sound right...

"Optimism is only the first sign of ignorance"

Realistic pessimist mostly. Things generally aren't as bad as I imagine, but it never hurts to assume the worst.

 

[TIMESWORDSMAN]

I AM OPTIMIST PRIME!

 

[Lowbreed]

Pessimist, but I find optimists funny:
"The dog is 99.99% dead your honour."
"Exactly, that makes him .01% alive, the glass is half full!"

I know I'm an lazy ass.

Your an lazy ass?

I don't know wich one is wich...

 

[CIA]

It depends entirely on my significant other status.

 

[Lord Mountbatten Reborn]

I'm a staunch pessimist, though finding people that I can actually find tolerable here has lessened my pessimism a bit.

 

[razer17]

optimist. Always look on the bright side of life and what not

 

[Monkfish Acc.]

I'm a realist.
I hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

 

[Avaholic03]

Depends on who I'm talking to. I like to play devil's advocate. So I'll try to bring optimists down, and bring pessimists up. I suppose that might make me a realist. I prefer to not pigeonhole myself into one label or another. Let's just say I can see both sides to most stories.

To parrot random internet "knowledge":
Optimists say the glass is half full
Pessimists say it's half empty
Realists say that glass is twice as large as it needs to be

 

[Arkhangelsk]

Slight pessimist, I don't expect everything to turn out great, that way I don't get disappointed.

 

[BakaMick]

I hope I am an Optamist

 

[Kollega]

I AM OPTIMIST PRIME!

This! GIVE ME YOUR FACES!

In seriousness,i'm kinda wobbly. Right now,i'm an optimist. Life turns out to be slightly better than i imagined.

 

[riskroWe]

Optimism makes you waste a lot of time.
Pessimism makes you miss out on opportunities.

I'm an idealist. Reality sucks.

 

[Kiutu]

I guess I switch between all 3 if you count realist. Ofcourse, the whole glass thing I cant stand. Its half full if it was empty then poured into halfway. its half empty if it was full then half was taken out.
Today I am a pessimist, and majorly so. Like how Im going to fail my test right now that starts in 2 minutes...

What about being a realist?
Unfortunately, I know I'm an lazy ass.

To lazy to make a poll or use the search bar it would seem...

I'm a pessimistic realist. i.e. I know the world is fucked up and I don't see it getting any better.
