Pareto optimal

A sophisticated way to say, "Life is not always fair"

Person A: How come Hillary Clinton didn't win the 2008 primaries?

Person B: Well...life in many ways is Pareto optimal. Besides I heard from someone that her campaign slogan was, "Anarchy is my policy for men."

Empty Optimism

People being optimistic when there's really nothing to be optimistic about. A sense that someone's positivity has no merit and is practically wasted because almost if not everything is purely negative at the time. This kind of thinking can be toxic because being happy all the time, even and especially during hardship, doesn't necessarily solve anything.

I'm getting tired of the amount of Empty Optimism that everyone around me is exerting. There's really nothing to be happy about right now.

Das's Law of Optimism/Pessimism

The glass is twice as big as it needs to be. Get there.

Das's Law of Optimism/Pessimism is derived from something said by George Carlin. It explains that sometimes you expect too much of yourself and it gets you down in life.
