Positivity

(1.) The false idea that negative elements of life need to be edited or denied, for someone to be happy, successful, or even just okay. Instead of just accepting that life is full of everything: the wonderful, the terrible and everything in between.

(2.) A toxic leftover from a multi-billion dollar self- help industry.

(3.) The kind of willful ignorance and denial that inspired idioms such as, "Ostrich with its head in the sand" and "Elephant in the Room". A mental rationalization for ignoring or downplaying problems....instead of accurately assessing and fixing them.

(4.) Malignant hope for people and situations that are never going to change.

(5.) A favorite excuse/justification for those who emotionally police and manipulate others.

If you have to construct "positivity" out of the ether, and put it in places it clearly doesn't belong....it's probably bullshit. What's "positive" about lying to yourself?

positive no

A device used by New Yorkers, who instinctively value opposition and contradiction, to underline their agreement with another person's statement. Instead of the conventional "Oh, I agree," or "Yes, you're right," the New Yorker begins with "No, I agree," or "No, you're right."

Xiomara: "Gray's Papaya makes a better hot dog than anyone can at home."
Shlomo: (using the Positive No) "No, you're absolutely right."

Position A

The preferred option or outcome in any given situation.

Going to the movies and seeing World War Z instead of Man of Steel would definitely be Position A.

positive

An adjective meaning that something is good. It was introduced into popular culture by Mr. Boyle in late 2003 and early 2004. The word was then passed on through the students in his Pre-calc class. Recently the word has spread to southern California by an unnamed student attending USD.

Buying a chocolate chip muffin sounds pretty positive.

The Position

A grown man that lives in his parents basement well into his adult life, usually with a cum filled sock underneath his bed.

I asked Joe what he would be doing this weekend and he said assuming The Position in his parent's basement.

position

If you see preferably a girl bending down, you say P, then the first letter in the girls name. Let's say it's a girl named Yuni, then you say: PY (Position Yuni). If you don't know the name of the girl you just say P

Or you could say P and the first letter in that persons job, like teacher; PT. And so on

Aleks: On my left, PJ
Jonas: That's just hot
