Wishful Cruising 

When you approach a red light, and instead of applying the brakes and coming to a stop, you coast; with the intention that the light will turn green so you don't have to stop at all and can cruise right through it.

"I was in a hurry and was wishful cruising and made it through 6 lights!"

"Some guy was wishful cruising and hit me at the cross walk. So I gave that cocksucker a pink sock and sent him on his way!"

WISHFUL THINKER 

A wishful thinker is one who naively believes, what he/she wants an outcome to be, rather than dealing with the alternate reality of what the outcome probably in reality will be. Wishful thinkers are very sweet, but get into trouble with this way of assessing situations. Often very unrealistic, in a silly way. Pollyanna, optimistic. What they want to be true blinds them to reality.

I am sure the police will just give me a warning for my out of date inspection sticker.

I did not read any of the material for the test, and did not prepare at all, but I am sure I will get a good grade.

He is a wishful thinker.

wishful thinking 

Basically daydreaming. Wishing or imagining something would happen that isn't exactly realistic.

Example of wishful thinking :
"He said he didn't ever want to be with me, but I know he will change his mind and come running back."

Wishful Cooking 

To cook meals that aren't traditionally considered to be seasonally appropriate as a creative way to wish for the coming of another season.

Often considered to be a flagship form of "seasonal superstition."

Son: Why is dad out barbecuing at the peak of our Minnesota winter?

Mother: Oh you know your father, he's just up to more of his wishful cooking.

wishful drinking 

Drinking alcohol...as if getting drunk will bring him/her back.

Sitting here throwing 'em back, thinking she'll come back, ain't nothing but wishful drinking! It's the reason she left you in the first place!
