ATTN: Everybody - I have an announcment to make.

[Cuddlefish]

It's OK, Dimo. I'm an optimist too.

I try to hide it, but it just won't stay down.

You don't have to hide it anymore. It's dangerous and self-destructive to do so. Go ahead, say it loud, say it proud: I AM HERE, AND I CARE!

I WAS BORN THIS WAY!

YES!!! BIG-OPTIMISTIC-DANCE-PARTY!!!!

It's people like you that are tearing apart the fabric that this country's roots were founded on.

And it's people like you that vehemently attack people like us, because you harbor immense guilt and resentment because of your OWN repressed optimistic nature!

[Doktor Howl]

I have nothing against Optimists, but allowing them to marry makes a farce of the institution.

Marriage is defined as two bitter pessimists.

IT'S ADAM & EVE, NOT HAPPY & AT EASE!

[Freeky]

Oh gawd I think I poomped my pance...

[Doktor Howl]

The main thing to watch out for in this situation is politics. Optimism frequently leads people to think they can improve the world, and that can make you even more annoying than religious missionaries.

As many of my friends will tell you.

Please, don't make me explain the concepts of "social commentary" and "parody" to you. It really kills the feel of a piece if you have to explain the concept word for word.

I see that Dr Preference is making friends here just as fast as he did in the intros thread. 

[Freeky]

I get the feeling he was trying to be funny.

[Freeky]

Faust thinks he's funny.  Perhaps it's just cultural differences?

[Dysfunctional Cunt]

I try to be funny and fail all the time.  I've stopped trying....   

Maybe he's funny.  Or maybe I'm being optimistic.

[Dr Preference]

Perhaps it's just cultural differences?

That's as good a reason as any to have an argument.

[Doktor Howl]

Faust thinks he's funny.  Perhaps it's just cultural differences?

Maybe Faust finds Aspies to be hilarious or some shit.

[Doktor Howl]

Or maybe I'm being optimistic.

They have retreats you can go on where they cure you of that with Jebus.

[Freeky]

Not really, dude.  It's asinine, because nobody is even trying to see the other side of the argument.  That's stupid monkey behavior, and I don't buy it.

Have YOU accepted Baby Jesus into YOUR life?  Isn't it about time you did?

[Doktor Howl]

Or maybe I'm being optimistic.

They have retreats you can go on where they cure you of that with Jebus.

Have YOU accepted Baby Jesus into YOUR life?  Isn't it about time you did?

He never gave me my circular saw back. 

Not that I expected him to.

The Lord will provide.

[East Coast Hustle]

I think we need more optimists.

They'll be easier to catch and eat when the time comes.
