Poll: Optimist or Pessimist

[Betancore]

I like to think I'm realistic, but I have a habit of being both. I swing both ways, so to speak. I can be a real downer sometimes, especially when I'm annoyed and in a bad mood. But other times, when I've had a good day, and something goes wrong, I can be fairly optimistic about it. And I'm a hopeful person overall, even if I forget it sometimes. I don't necessarily stick to one way of thinking about things. It varies, depending on my mood.

I'd say I'm a realist but on a bad day I'm pessimistic, very pessimistic.

Pessimist. Its hard for me to have faith in humanity. Everyone new I meet is ignorant and stupid and a danger to themself and me, until proven otherwise. After that, they become exceptions.

Otherwise, among my friends, i'm a pretty upbeat and a very-laid back person.

So I solve problems, like how am I going to win the up-coming nerf tournoment where if I get shot I lose?

The answer?
a gun! *looks at tripod nerf vulcan*

and if that don't work- use more gun! *needs to get more gun*

Precisely my good sir.

TO THE GUNS

An optimist will tell you the glass is half full. A pessimist will tell you it's half empty. An engineer will tell you it's twice the volume it needs to be.

I myself am a delighted Optimist, because there's nothing wrong with being one. I am not a natural leader, therefore I have this luxury.

Most of the time, I'm a little bit too optimistic about everything, and it can leave me disappointed (which is no fun). However, optimism is also good for seeing the good bits in a shitty situation, something which has proven pretty useful several times over my life, including this very weekend (it's awesome when your best friend randomly decides that he hates the girl that you want to date who just wants to be friends, but at least I'm still good friends with both of them).
