Sivy Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 are you an optimist or a pessimist? did Butch & Sundance die in a hail of gunfire or do you think they survived somehow? did Michael Caine & co retrieved the gold or did they plummet to their deaths? are you a positive thinker that believes things will work out? or a negative thinker who believes that the outcome will always be bleak? vote now! personally i'm an optimist, i like to think things will work out eventually, even if sometimes it doesn't look that way.

Sabretooth Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 Well, a bit of a pessimist, but I look at both ways to find out better. I say the glass is half empty. Pour in some more Jawa Juice, bartender!
Taos Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 The glass is half full. I still have half a glass of beer to drink.
narfblat Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 I think there are two other personality types. #1 Half empty. No, half full. No, Half empty. No, half full..... #2 Hey! I ordered a cheeseburger! (thanks to Gary Larson, creator of "the Far Side")
ExcelsioN Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 Originally posted by |GG|Crow_Nest I see... I see the glass is full a friend of mine also asked me this question yesterday...... Same here. And then I said half-full, so, there ya go.
rccar328 Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 Originally posted by Astrotoy7 my hope that humanity will prevail during wicked times....half empty I'm quite the opposite - I believe that humanity will prevail during wicked times - we've done it before, and we'll do it again. I believe in a brighter future. I'm definitely an optimist.

legameboy Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 Optimist all the way! Beign a pessimist is so... depressing... lol.
Boba Rhett Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 Hmmm... someone already did the cheeseburger thing.... so I dunno what to do. *shrugs* *walks away*
MennoniteHobbit Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 I'm blind; I can't see the glass. Actually, I'm an optimist when it comes to most things. Otherwise, I'm a pessimist when.... when I want to be. But mainly-optimist.
rccar328 Posted April 3, 2004 Posted April 3, 2004 I think it was quotegarden.com or something like that ... It was on quotegarden.com...but it was from Harry Truman.
