CE usually includes a steady drip of troll topics, but some go "hell-bent for leather" to be unrealistically negative or positive. . So, which posting tone is more annoying: being too negative or being too positive? Choose which delusion annoys you most, CE. .

The issue is more so just how often we see each type of post. And this board is filled with ultra negativity all of the time now (and not general negativity like "oh this is definitely bad," but excessive defeatism like "why even bother doing anything anymore it's all fucked forever we should just roll over and accept it"), so negative is more annoying. Speaking on games, negativity is also significantly more annoying. Some people focus so much on what they don't like in everything they play that they overlook still-fantastic games staring them in the face. --- You felt your sins weighing on your neck. ...

The way the bit goes is that when shit hits the fan, people who are always positive will go full blown panic mode and not know how to deal with the stress from a disasterous event.

Im not convinced that a comedy bit gives an accurate portrayal, to be honest. Perhaps about positive people panicking, though thats more likely to be due to a lack of resilience than anything else. People who are overly negative arent inherently more resilient. In fact, Id say that they are sometimes the way they are precisely because they lack resilience. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I used to be one of those positive people. I'd always look for the silver lining and had hope even when things were bad. Then I got hit with a reality check, had a mental breakdown and gradually lost all hope. I can say from experience, I was way more respected, liked, and accepted as a positive person. Now as a mostly negative person, I'm more just tolerated(if I'm lucky). Not to say the negativity has taken over my whole life, I'm still positive towards others.

As someone who has had a tendency to be too negative most of the time, I've come to realize how toxic it is. A certain level of negativity can be chalked up to realism and understanding how bad things are. However, if you're just using that as an excuse to roll over and give up, you're just setting yourself up for guaranteed failure. You gotta let yourself have at least a glimmer of hope to keep on going, even if it seems irrational. I admittedly haven't been the best at following my own advice, but it's something I've been trying to work on. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Right now, Too Positive is worse. "It won't be THAT bad, come on!" *it is then that bad* "Its fine, X or Y won't happen!" *X and/or Y happens* And then it eventually turns into a "WHY DIDN'T SOMEONE WARN ME FOR REAL?!" moment.
