Are you an optimist or a pessimist?
March 16, 2012 5:28 pm at 5:28 pm #862095DerechMemberOptimist.
It’s good for your health.
March 16, 2012 6:18 pm at 6:18 pm #8620962qwertyParticipantThe cup isn’t half full or half empty it’s just twice bigger than it should be.
March 16, 2012 6:41 pm at 6:41 pm #862097yentingyentaParticipantoptimist, with a side of realist.
March 16, 2012 8:28 pm at 8:28 pm #862098smartcookieMemberI’m ashamed to be a pessimist. Proud though, to be working on becoming an optimist. I get better every day.
March 16, 2012 9:15 pm at 9:15 pm #862099oomisParticipantI am optimistic that I am not a pessimist. I see the glass half full. With good wine. Waiting for me. And I have time to drink it slowly. AND I won’t gain weight from it.
March 16, 2012 9:48 pm at 9:48 pm #862100Sam2ParticipantTo quote a friend of mine from high school, I’m a positive pessimist. When you have no expectations, you can never be disappointed.
March 16, 2012 10:13 pm at 10:13 pm #862101brotherofursParticipanti had a teacher that once said, its not half full or half empty, it s full all the way- half with water and half with oxygen!:)
March 18, 2012 3:07 am at 3:07 am #862102OneOfManyParticipantI’m a realist (you know, the one who drinks up the water while the other two dunces argue…). 😛

March 18, 2012 9:23 pm at 9:23 pm #862106Doodle-Manâ„¢Memberit depends looking at the top of the glass im a pessimist.looking at the bottom of the glass im an optimist
March 18, 2012 11:59 pm at 11:59 pm #862107s2021MemberBrother- now THATs an optimist!
March 19, 2012 3:24 am at 3:24 am #862108Think firstMemberOptimist all the way! Time will tell, if you’ll succeed at any given task, why not enjoy the feeling and thought of success until otherwise proven. More importantly, optimism breeds success and pesimsm breeds failure so its part and parcel of preparing for success.
I wasn’t sure how well I was going to explain this but, I knew I could do it and, look I did! Become an optimist it don’t cost you a dollar!
March 19, 2012 2:14 pm at 2:14 pm #862109BTGuyParticipantIs who an optometrist?
March 19, 2012 5:18 pm at 5:18 pm #862110No One Mourns The WickedMemberRealist, along the lines of Sam2…no expectation= no disappointment.
March 20, 2012 12:57 am at 12:57 am #862111writersoulParticipantRealist, like NOMTW and Sam2.
I apparently come from a long, long line of brilliant underachievers.
March 22, 2012 11:56 pm at 11:56 pm #862112Doodle-Manâ„¢Memberif the glass is half full its also half empty.if the glass is half empty its also half full.so whoever sees it half full is an optimist and a peesimist and whoever sees it half empty is an optimist and a pessimist
March 23, 2012 12:38 am at 12:38 am #862113cinderellaParticipantI don’t think I’m either one. So I guess I just see half a cup that’s full.
March 23, 2012 2:36 am at 2:36 am #862115PurimMashgiachMemberMy cup broke
March 23, 2012 4:11 am at 4:11 am #862116yitayningwutParticipantIsn’t an optimist an eye doctor?
March 23, 2012 8:51 am at 8:51 am #862117FrozenShinglesMemberDefinitely Optimist! “Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass… it’s about learning to dance in the rain”
March 23, 2012 6:17 pm at 6:17 pm #862118sam responsibleMemberSome times, the so called “Pessimist” is the Realist!
Before the economy crisis, Before the 9-11, (and etc.) -Who was right then, the Optimists or the single ones of Pessimists!!!!!
These is what’s going on in America.
