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I am sure the police will just give me a warning for my out of date inspection sticker.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

Get the WISHFUL THINKER mug.Phrase to be used when someone delivers bad news in an otherwise pleasant conversation or time. It comes from the idea that Morrissey (solo artist and frontman of The Smiths) wrote depressing lyrics which were then often juxtaposed with quite upbeat or happy music. For example the song "Girlfriend in a Coma" or the chorus lyrics to "There is a Light that never comes out"
Dave - "My wife is pregnant, I'm going to be a father!"
Sally - "That's awesome, congratulations Dave!"
Steve - "The baby might be born with a disability"
Dave - "Oh thanks Morrissey!"

Get the things won't fly mug.One may use the phrase “You think you’re a big man for mocking me?” to ask if another thinks that they are a "big man" because they are teasing (“mocking”) you. This phrase may be used as an exclamation or/and to ask another’s intent.
Once the student had stopped teasing her, the teacher asked the student, ”You think you’re a big man for mocking me?”
