Pessimistic... I myself am a realist. But that pessimism is there. I also try to be optimistic to refrain from killing myself, but goddamn this world is tough.
I'm a pessimist so I have to, by definition, say that everyone is neutral or pessimistic but realistically many people I know are optimists and they make me sick.
Well, one of my favorite sayings is Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
So, I'd say somewhere in between.

I'd say the majority of the world is comprised of optimists, but negitivity always gets more attention.
I'd say that more people are pessimists, simply because it's easy to be one. Sure, it's easy to look at the world and say "Dag, yo. This place be fucked." instead of trying to see the good in it. There really is SOME good out there, it's just hiding.
i personally am a pessimist, never disappointed. If you think you will get a F on a test and get a B, you will be happier then thinking you got a A and getting a B.
A pessimist is what an optimist calls a realist. I know this because I'm called out on being pessimistic all the time, though everything I say has stood the test of time.
For example, when you say, "man, this war in Africa is getting only worse," and someone tells you you're being pessimistic, you know Mister Rogers has been getting too much airtime.

Is it weird that I go back and forth? Sometimes I'm a total optimist and other times I'm a pessimist, but then again I'm a girl so maybe I'm just moody . . . who knows
Think i have to say optimist, since thats the only way i can see people managing to drudge through thier monotomous everyday office work, in thier bland boring house, with thier irritating dull family, in thier generally uneventful lives.
That is unless thier accountants, everyone knows they dont have soul's so thier neutral.

So true. Optimism is the 'norm' in our society, the standard. Any interruption to that standard will most defiantly get noticed more. Hell people at school who are optimistic and happy I may essentially ignore, there's nothing special there, but when someone comes in with a grumpy mood, everyone seems to be affected.TaborMallory said:
Me myself, I am a realist. Most will call me pessimistic, and they are probably right. However the way I logically look at every situation makes me very cynical about human nature...
