Boundless optimism

Another way of saying bliss, or blind optimism that sounds even more positive, even though it all means the same thing.

Boundless optimism sounds good, but really it's no different than a state of bliss where everything is okay, and everything will be okay.

Pareto optimal

A sophisticated way to say, "Life is not always fair"

Person A: How come Hillary Clinton didn't win the 2008 primaries?

Person B: Well...life in many ways is Pareto optimal. Besides I heard from someone that her campaign slogan was, "Anarchy is my policy for men."

Cautious optimism

Theres no such thing as cautious optimism. Cautious optimism is cynicism. Thinking the sky is going to fall and trying to look forward to the little bit of good left in things before it does is cynicism. Really, having a bucket list is cynicism, since even though it becomes more likely that you'll die soon when you get older, once the mystery isnt there you're not really living anyway, you're just trying to live the rest of your days as an adrenaline junkie before the crash at the end, to go out with a bang, that's cynicism. Most thoughts disguised as positive are really cynical by nature.

Fuck positive thoughts and people, they think the end is a crash and it becomes one for everybody else too. There is no cautious optimism.

Empty Optimism

People being optimistic when there's really nothing to be optimistic about. A sense that someone's positivity has no merit and is practically wasted because almost if not everything is purely negative at the time. This kind of thinking can be toxic because being happy all the time, even and especially during hardship, doesn't necessarily solve anything.

I'm getting tired of the amount of Empty Optimism that everyone around me is exerting. There's really nothing to be happy about right now.
