If you are a pessimist you are either always right or pleasantly surprised.

However, you don't have to be a pessimist to think you're always right.

That's pleasantly surprising

you know what sucks? being a pessimist AND being wrong all the time because your dire predictions are the wrong dire prediction. like, instead of krasnov selling the country out to the putain you bet on krasnov selling the country out to some minor saudi princes and the queen of argentina

I'm either right, or I'm pleasantly surprised

I could switch to a different chumbawumba song but the therapist won't like those either

I drink the whiskey drink, I drink the vodka drink, and when I have to pee, I use the kitchen sink
