Innately Pessimistic. But I consider myself a realist. I just tend to see the negative, but try to be objective.

An optimist sees the glass half full.
A pessimist sees it half empty.
A scientist sees the space as half occupied.
A really optimistic scientist knows the glass is completely occupied (by air and water and various other particles)
A really pessimistic but accurate scientist knows the glass is probably mostly empty space (and the glass contains mostly empty space)
And an engineer knows the glass was made twice as big as was needed.

what I want to know, IS...why not just fill the dang glass up to the top, so that way you have more delicious juice, and we can all come to an agreement?

I'm an optimist when it comes to other people (though my wife says it is more like naivety), but a pessimist when it comes to myself.
