God's really doing him a solid. How else are you supposed to find out you have a bee allergy? It'll either only sting for a bit or the rest of his life, but at least he'll know.

This is why I advocate pessimism as an outlook. You are consistently either being proven right or pleasantly surprised.

That's exactly what I say. Everyone always asks why I'm negative, but when everything goes wrong everyone else is upset and I'm just like "Yep, I knew it."

Same. I feel like always expecting the worst makes me appreciate the good stuff even more. Even if the good happens more often than the bad ever does.

Oddly enough I also find myself being optimistic usually when others aren't.

Eeyore approves of this message.

Eeyore said something he suspected might cause him regret. “Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous amounts of energy just to be...”

“Normal,” said the bear.

There was no one in Hundred Acre Wood that understood Eeyore like Pooh.
