It's worth checking out the Pessimism thread at the moment. You might not be able to recognize it.

Never has optimism been so annoying.

In the name of happiness and optimism, this should make it all the more bearable:

Oh well, things got better for a while anyway. Right around the early to mid-20 pages, there was a long and pretty lively conversation about some very un-pessimistic matters. I got a chuckle out of it. A relapse looms, although still they don't sound as desperate as before.

I just love how optimism thread has turned into spectators lounge of the pessimism thread. Making yourselves feel better by looking at failures and misary of others. Should be ashamed of yourselves.... tsk tsk tsk

Somehow, I don't think that someone who can't spell "misery" is completely overwhelmed by this emotion. I suspect that this person may have other things on his mind, like tall Serbian women.

..or he just can't spell. Which one you think is more likely? Or you think its both?

I think that we have a causal relationship here.

I get tongue-tied around beautiful women too.

tennis sucks. This is optimistic because I hope that tennis will someday be abolished

Hey now. Its a good sport, physical and mental as well. But I do hate it when I play bad. I'm not playing at all nowadays since my ACL rupture....

OK I'm off to bed. Definatly not thinking about tall Serbian women.

Geez... I can't leave this thread for a minute!

Robin, I am not even going to waste your time telling you that at least the W/L was not a rejection... I will just say that I know where you're coming from.

If it's any consolation at all, my first decision of the cycle came last month... from a state school where my numbers should have been at least competitive. Dinged outright in ED... not even held over for RD, just dinged.

Fordham will come to their senses, I know it!!! Your got caught on a paperclip from another file and was accidentally placed in W/L pile. When you send in your LOCI, they will realize their mistake! (Optimists unite!!!)

[strike]tennis[/strike] Soccer sucks. This is optimistic because I hope that [strike]tennis[/strike] soccer will someday be abolished

Don't worry, Oli... I fixed it for you!

jackalope11 · Post by **jackalope11** » Tue Dec 08, 2009 7:39 am

Though I will say that stating that anything "sucks" is borderline for our thread. Even soccer!

Besides, everybody knows that American football is the real sport. Rugby would be close, but no cigar.

Easy, killer... I was with you on defending tennis. you can't expect everyone to love all of your second tier sports with you. If soccer was cool someone would watch it, besides people that want to impress everyone with how non-traditional their sports selection is.

Actually soccer is first tier for me. And I get the right to like it cuz I'm from Europe. and also cuz its the most popular sport in the world.

And hey.... I'm a pessimist infiltrator, what do you expect?

So actually, yea soccer sucks!

Actually, I must give you credit on both... In your first point, I will agree that you should be able to easily claim a European first tier status of soccer. To your second point, you are fulfilling your duties commendably as an infiltrator, so I must give another tip of the cap.

MrsTrucker: He is doing good. A little miffed at me because I won't let him in the 2nd bedroom. I found he did some carpet digging in the closet there, so he is not allowed. Right now he is sitting at my feet, grooming himself

Thank you for asking about him, Philaw!

Who are you expecting/hoping to hear from today?
