You reminded me of this quote from the founder of Patagonia,

‘There’s no difference between a pessimist who says, “Oh, it’s hopeless, so don’t bother doing anything,” and an optimist who says, “Don’t bother doing anything, it’s going to turn out fine anyway.” Either way, nothing happens.’

I think I am an optometrist.

When a pessimist says "My eyesight can't possibly get any worse", the optometrist says "Yes, it can!"

I think I am an opt-to-mist

When a pessimist says "things can't get any worse," I opt to mist them with the garden hose until they go away.

I think I am an onanist...
