i don't think anyone can be anymore positive than I am. it almost scares people. I'm one of those that people don't like because they're so happy and look at life in such a diff. way

Hope for the best, be PREPARED for the worst. Safety kit, weapons, ammo, dry foodstuffs etc. smile I'm positive I'm going to survive unless the globe itself doesn't.

I'm a pessimist when planning - I try to give Murphy a chance to have his say.

When it comes to execution, when it's basically just ride the tiger, I'm an optimist.

This thread is a bit of the "glass half full / half empty" sort of thing.  Ask any decent engineer that question and they will reply that the glass is half as large as it needs to be.  Ask a scientist and he will try to determine where the other half went, while trying to figure out how the first half got there.

This isn't being a "realist".  It's being a nerd, basically.

I'm positive that shit happens and you have to be tough enough to take it.


And, I'm normally a blunt individual, and it can be misconstrued as negative, but I'm just telling it like it is. I never sugarcoat it.

While I have good days and bad days, I try to be a positive person. I believe you get what you give. If I have a reasonably positive attitude, people seem to respond positively. My life is not rose-colored glasses and sugar plum fairies. But I would rather enjoy life than dig a pit of despair...

I'm positive that I'm negative, or is it negative that I'm positive?  Hmm, this is the same kind of confussion I get from HIV tests....

I would have to say for the most part I am a positive person! Sometimes I do look at the worst in some situations but I like to have a positive outlook as much as I can!

I'm schizophrenic positive. 

I always look for the good in everything and everyone, but I prepare for the bad I know is out there.

Neither and both. I'm ambiguously moody.
